I'm hoping that all the P players got together in a strange conspiracy to collectively fail on the preseason map tests, to force the maps to be toss-favored.

Looks like Jaedong is getting another title.

How can map-makers screw up this badly? Perhaps there should be a map or two solely for each individual match up. That way a map just has to be balanced one way, I imagine it's hard to tweak a balance feature without messing another one up.

For me its not kespa fault or maps faults.. its just that Terrans and Zergs keep improving always.. and Toss last new thing was just Bisu corsair/dt build (yeah like 1 year or more ago)... they need news strategies and I put my faith on Stork and Jangbi.

Cus terrans got fantasy agresive TvP or new style of ZvP by Jaedong and others... Toss just need a new or old player to play diferent and the trend will change.

It doesn't change the fact that its imba maps. Stork has already shown a way to stop fantasy's aggressive play and its not like all z can copy jaedong's play.

Seems like Bisu is right when he complain about maps.

Great write up.

Asgard, match point, tornado, and silver wing are all acceptable maps that hopefully won't be too imbalanced.
Judgement Day, acro, and road runner look awful and boring and I hope they don't get used.
I don't have an opinion on moon glaive.

I guess they're looking to overturn the Legend of the Fall.

Here's to hoping that Bisu pulls something off regardless

the map stats are pretty dissapointing. as much fun as it is to watch protoss fail, watching tvz's has begun to get stale, and the mirror matches aren't great either.

OSL and MSL introduce new maps, right? Maybe they'll have some more balanced ones.

Its not that I hate protoss (my fav team khan lol) but I hate that actitude of every toss player... "yeah maps are imba we are lost gg no re" its like a lazy way of justify that they are playing badly and its all Bisu fault.. I dont remember stork crying about map imba (well maybe a little like every player)... for me maps where Imba before, when nat didnt have gas or with like 2 gas expa for map, that was imba.

Also could someone who understand SC very good correct me if im wrong, but for me when a map is made with a little P>Z imba results on a map T>P too? (well not like really T>>>P but like bridges and narrow paths goods for storms, no big center..etc..)

Is no one considering the obviousness that protoss have yet to create a solid response to the 5-hatch build, or simply how fe is still so vulnerable to 2/3 hatch hydra breaks? When each new distinct map shows this level of imbalance after a swarm season, it shows that zergs still have superior builds at the moment. It's a little laughable to think that all of these maps were somehow unintentionally (or otherwise) designed to a zerg's advantage; it's more plausible that protoss have yet to adapt. Those are my thoughts on PvZ, anyway.

[You don't know shit! They're all just imba! Obviously you know nothing about PvZ! (perhaps) Thanks for this useless post!]
