No, he is saying that many D/D+/C- players will make a TSL account as a lark, and after not being able to place higher than their original rank, they will just switch back to their normal accounts due to the difficult of transferring friends lists, etc. If any TSL account plays these D/D+/C- (or higher) players then they are breaking the rules.

edit : I would suggest just placing a rank limit on it. I mean, obviously if at B- this is going on there's something fishy, but at the D ranks it would be impossible to keep track of.

Destination in the map pool is understandible but I would have liked to see another map. This is not a big deal because the casters are so awesome tho :D

Fighting spirit? NOOO, i hate that map

I think Eye of the Storm results in much better macro games. Fighting Spirit seems to be a "turtle and wait" map.

EotS
Andromeda
Outsider
Destination

would have been an amazing pool, 5 maps is a little too much but it's too late.

or even El Nino instead of Outsider because they're similar and the ice tileset looks so much better than the ash one.

I'm a little disappointed in the map pool, but excited nonetheless.

Wow, really excited about the casters. Since the announcement i've been watching razer tsl vods and some of the commentators there are clearly not on the same level. Can't wait now^^

It seems like they are split in two though.... will it be chill/day and then tasteless/artosis in other games all along? or will they just alternate back and forth?

Lag. We did all kinds of testing with the Chinese guys and their manager (Ash) but had to come to the conclusion there are too little guarantees. They are allowed to play TSL from another country (this player would be allowed into the ladder playing from China) and they are currently looking into the possibilities of making this happen with help of their sponsors.

That will be the teams indeed.
