It's soooo fucking nice that we got rid of this shitty map pool that is gaia paranoid baekdudaeganwhatever.

God just stop talking like sh!t without even mentionning any argument to remove theses maps.

Again stop whinning plz thanks.

how is it fair for the peope who have spent months practicing the maps, as they are now equal to those who have put in no preparation.

nah if they are going to change the maps it should probably be changed for national quals too. if you practice constantly on python etc. and then win your country u have like 1 month to learn these maps. ludicrous.

and really gaia is SUCH A BAD MAP.

andromeda // troy are very bad maps too.
i think othello/bluestorm are both excellent.

"not enough time to practice" is a weak excuse. unless your national final is in july and is using these maps (which should be very few people, if any), then you've got enough time. americans with our national final in october have plenttttttyyyyy of time.

these are definitely some maps that give amateurs a chance at the grand finals!!

Nony your just saying it because your protoss. You dont get a say in this. Its like a zerg saying "Yeah our WCG maps are good, I like having Tau Azaelea Arcadia and Tau 2.0 as our maps, It helps amateurs!"

Ive practiced more time on the old maps than I will on the new maps.

And why did they change the maps? Because the Korean progamers don't have enough time to practice. If all national finals changed their map pool now, which they might, then that's obviously terrible.

WCG's been running so long they should have came up with their own unique maps by now which would have avoided this silly predicament.

BTW, they haven't updated their map pack on the site yet.

chosen i didnt talk about balance because i dont think there's anything to discuss. the map pool favors protoss. but other than that, i don't think there's anything to complain about. there have been other complaints in this thread and i thought i'd try to shave those off because i see balance as the only issue. if you wanna go on a crusade about the map pool balance, i won't try to stop it

blackstar, i don't think it's relevant that you're better on other maps. i don't think tournaments should have to announce their maps more than a couple months in advance. by professional standards (OSL, MSL, etc) and by amateur standards (TSL, WGT events, GG.net events, etc), 2+ months is a lot of time. that's just the way it is. WCG should be the last organization targeted for releasing map pools in a timely manner.

They shouldn't change maps all of a sudden.
But that they want to use the new Korean maps is normal, they always did that. The whole foreigner scene always used whatever new maps the Korean scene created. And that's good, because otherwise we'd still be playing on fucking Lost Temple. We need new maps... and progamers or wannabe pros need to train for and play on whatever maps the tournament organizers choose.

It's not that they announced it late, or not. I don't even know when I am supposed to play. Might be tomorrow afaik.
It's that they announced a map pool. Nationals copy that. And then they changed it. So now they have two different map pools for the same event.
If nationals are now also changing it, that's terrible for obvious reasons.

But I don't understand why people are now criticizing WCG on following Korea. Which is exactly what people have demanded from them here for years.

I thought I was practicing WCG maps. I forced myself to play Gaia and I forced others to play Peaks. All for WCG. Now, I am going to get owned terribly so that's not the issue that much.

It's hilarious because if some of the best koreans win WCG korea....

They most likely will win WCG because they practice those maps EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK.
