Half of the games between gosus getting decided by the map = ghey

Boxer is probably the best player overall, but not that much better than the rest, a lot of players can beat him. Funny last year all his important games vs toss users were on JS, this year decent luck (I hope only luck) with maps too

Great play under pressure by Boxer though, I am far more impressed by his performance this year than last year where he had a bit too much luck with maps/strats.

U fuckin idiots, first, they pick a random WCG map, 2nd, why is it 1 game? bcuz yellow was in loser brackets and he needed to beat boxer 2 times, and boxer only need to beat yellow 1 game. BOXER IS THE BEST

The problem Tassadar is that the selection that the random map comes from has a number of very poor maps in it.

Boxer is the best yeah, but that doesn't mean the maps didn't have an influence in all kinds of matches.

First map they played was Char - a map that doesn't favours terran in tvz.
Second map was Valhalla, a balanced map. Maybe in 2-3 years people will finally realise that Valhalla it's a fair map, not a protoss or terran one.
Don't get me wrong, I wanted Yellow to win this.

Don't forget BoxeR also defeated (well... crushed) YellOw on Legacy of Char, and this one really is a Zerg map.

So BoxeR beat him twice, once on a Zerg-favoured map, then once on a Terran(/Protoss)-favoured map (some ppl find it balanced though). I think this is pretty much fair overall.

He just deserved to win.

Lost Temple is just a popular map. LT is really boring and the luck factor is high also. And you can do plenty more strats/tactics on other maps than LT.
I am glad they didn't play LT.

In my opinion then legacy of char is the same as lost temple only with all the start positions being equal, lost temple sucks. Also... no need to flame people and spam on this site, it's not broodwar.com . I wanted plains to hill to be in in the selection as I really love that map now , maybe next year .

Muhweli, it wasn't BO3 last year ^_^ It just kinda seemed that way because Boxer met Elky in Winners' final and then right after in the Winner's/Loser's final after Elky defeated Gorush in Loser's Final(didn't have to face him in first round of double elim like he did Yellow this year ^^'). And two years ago there was a Bo5 between Boxer and Slayer, but I that was exhibition I think. Gorush was the winner of WCG 2000 I believe. I think Boxer hadn't really arrived on the SC scene until after WCG qualifiers for that year were over, and I think Slayer was there for KBK at the time, so they thought it would be a nice lil exhibition event ^^ Confirmation on this, Mensrea or Waxangel? And thirdly, one of the greatest matches between Boxer and Yellow was on Vahalla(Game 1 of Coca Cola, that 55 minute classic ^_^). And up until this point, Yellow crushed all his terran opponents on Vahalla, both here, and the korea prelims, so I think people were anticipating another classic. Just a shame it didn't happen. But congrats to Boxer ^^ Hope he is still on SC next year to try for a 3rd ^_^

well, for whatever it's worth, maps where announced before the KO stage, and not picked to specially help Boxer.

Well if WCG was in Bulgaria boxer was going to have the worst possible maps against his strongest opponents and maps for the top 16 tourney were going to be adjusted according to the most probable opponents of Didi/Beast/Bykli until the final hahaha

(partly) joking but you get the idea

How did they draw the maps for groups/top 16?

Boxer beat Yellow two times so just give him his props and end it. As for the map i hear everyone saying they should pick new maps but I dont see to many of you saying what maps they should uses next year(If there is BW at next years WCG anyway GO VOTE!!!). So go head people tell me What maps you put to replaces what they got now. I personal would only remove JS cuss i think its hard for toss in a TvP. Im not sure what map would replace it mayb biforst be nice(i love that map).HoV is about as blanced a islands map there is i think. I mean name one more blanced? Btw i have to beleave LT is one of the most blanced maps ever made. Seems like any race can win at any time on that map(i think u LT hates say it to make yourself look gosu lol). Then again wtf do i know im newb

I would swap lost temple for plains to hill as lost temple is just the same as legacy of char only without balanced start points (re. above). I would also be tempted to swap jungle story for gaema gowun/blade storm (tough choice) as I prefer to play protoss vs zerg on gaema gowun/blade storm than jungle story and zerg still have legacy of char to own on vs halls of valhalla for protoss to own on. Terran can play on any map which isn't completely flat so I'm not bothering to mention terran .

There is no such thing "LT hates". You have to be kinda crazy to actualy hate a map. The thing is that LT is not a good competition map because there is too much luck factor involved and I am talking about the starting positions. LT is a broken map. It's not about likeing it or not.

kinda ironic that before that match, yellow said in an interview that his week point in a game is econ control, and when people hit his econ he loses. Then first thing boxer does is rape ihs econ. Roflz

What many gamers have overlooked is the ability for someone to adapt to a map, situation, ect. Although Yellow is an excellent z user he made a mistake, and with that happening boxer took it to his advantage.

note: i didnt see replay and congradulate the both of them for amking it as far as they did

PARTLY joking? You better be 100% joking, cuz that's bullshit. All this shit in the beginging after the bulgarians winning a couple matches about them being the shit and koreans looking "vulnerable". Look at the results, no bulgarians even advanced out of the first round and the koreans ended up 1-2 even though they faced each other in the 1st round of double elimination. I somehow knew there would be all these bullshit excuses. The maps were pre-selected for god sake. Lets just face the facts, the world is still a bit behind korea (we're catching up though) and lets stop being haters and recognize. Doesn't matter where the WCG was held, koreans > bulgarians.

Is Starcraft in danger of not making the next WCG or the one after!!? If so, that's just stupid: Starcraft is real-time chess. Bleh.

I'd like to know how many people accessed the WCG site for SC/BW information in comparision to the other games. It'd also be interesting to see how much traffic WCG had when it was a SC/BW match being broadcast as opposed to the other games.

My guess is that SC/BW got a lot more attention than any other game this year, and so it should be obvious to WCG that it shouldn't be taken out for next year. It'd be a ridiculous prospect.

I might be biased, but I don't think Starcraft should be ever taken out. Its timeless. Sure the graphics are probably a bit dated, but eh, gameplay is the still the best ever.

tenbagger didn't Froz beat the winner of the wcg 2:0? Why do people like you always think that a way a tourney unfolds is the only possible way it could have gone, and the winner would have won no matter what. That's absolutely stupid. There were so many possibilities and luck played a big role as ever, even if the most probable winner won.

The maps/group draws had a huge role in both wcg's so far, even if the maps were all balanced we still have the groups: Two insane groups this year (B and D). I think if Junwi and Oddysay were in those groups instead of Boxer, half the koreans might have been out before top 16 just like last year. Two of the Bulgarians were in those groups and lost in playoffs, not to mention Bykli who isn't even top 10 in Bulgaria and wasn't supposed to be there, almost won group F and beat Oddysay too

A lot of nations have pretty strong teams and Bulgaria is one of them, nothing wrong about me cheering for them. It's not like I tell they own someone, they just could have gone far with some better luck. You're the hater for telling me I shouldn't support them, not me.
