 this is really cool. I remember the ICCUP custom map tournaments when the game was still really new. However that also backfired since the main focus was still trying to figure out what the game really is, not that that ever stops. With a custom map tournament like this what you get is that people will come in with their set ideas on how to play and that might need to be re-evaluated or changed. I'm hoping something like that will be a result. Either way gonna be really fun and most excellent initiative, looking forward to something refreshing. | ||

I was wondering if someone could link me to any vods played on Sanctuary and or Cloud kingdom because i am playing a Bo7 with my brother (loser does all washing up on christmas day, so high stakes) ^^ and we put these two in the map pool to spice it up a bit. It will be PvZ, so those vods would obviously be best, but i would like to just see more of them in general to get a feel of the map as it is finals week here and i can't play atm. Cheers  | ||

Time to start practising my ASS OFF for two days so I can at least die with some dignity when the tournament comes around. Will they make it a bracket of 1024 do you think? I know plenty of my buddies would get in on it and I think a lot of euro pros probably arn't awake yet. | ||

You could actually register all week and it just filled up today so I doubt they will extended it since it starts tomorrow. What I can't believe is that there are only 132 terrans out of 512!!!!! Barely over 25% while toss comes in at a whopping 37%. I'm pretty excited to watch this tomorrow =] | ||

In all seriousness, this is awesome, I support the idea of one`s post in here, there should be a paypal donation system for this kind of things, I would add 100 bucks without thinking it too much. | ||

I really hope they're balanced and that we could see them played at tournaments and maybe even on the ladder! Just played on Cloud Kingdom... and I gotta say, this map is cool as hell (an ice-hell ofc)! I think matches could turn out extremly badass on it Definatly gonna play most of my custom games on these instead of blizz maps ^_^ TL should open donations for tournaments like these... I bet they'd get a much better price-pool. And it'll grab even more attention from Blizzard and the tournment-organizers! | ||
