GG and good luck next GO4sc2cup...

Getting usermade maps to ladder is hard, it took many years to blizzard add WC3 usermade maps to ladder. Broodwar it was okay because there was no ladder (private servers had ladders with own maps that point).

I just dont get how any tournament can take itself seriously with this map-pool. For instance, I got 4gate proxy-allined last Go4sc2. Guess which map. Desert oasis. Really, using Desert oasis in a tournament? Have we sunken that low?

Also, as it turns out the guy who beat me mains terran and just chose zerg so he could 6pool becouse it was Steppes. Cant we also have a freaking rule that says that you have to have 1 race? It takes out a lot of trouble (For instance some people play different races depending on maps/mus and so on)? The guy switched race just before the game started so ofc I was prepared for a terran so I 14pooled. -.-

Lost a lot of respect for both the SC2-community and ESL today.

GSL is using Desert Oasis. Do you think that they sunk very low by doing that ? It's a decent map.

No, the difference is that in GSL you can choose which maps you want to eliminate.

Pay attention to loading screen and play very safe builds (meaning that you can defend rushes) rather than standard builds. More you advance in bracket, move even closer to standard play.

Still it does not change the fact that it is played in the biggest tournament in the world right now and it is a map in the ladder pool as well.

Preparing for a 6pool on Steppes = 10pool. Im not gonna 10pool every game on Steppes couse if I do when somebody plays standard I autolose.

Then you will always lose to 6pool and always complain. Scout earlier and be prepared for it next time. This is a tournament. If you can't adapt your play to it then you will always lose in a tournament.

Im not complaining about the strategy, ofcourse its my own fault for losing to it. However. I also lose a lot of respect to ESL for using such bad maps.

You sound like a really sore loser.
I mean you lose respect to ESL for using that map? You should lose respect to every tourney then, even GSL (yes you can vote it out, but still they are using it).

I think all tournaments should have the same system as GSL. Craftcup uses it (Or some other one, cant remember) and it´s great. Both players basicly just downvote maps until theres only 1 left, in that way both people get a map that suits their race and (Hopefully) is a good map.

tarson got roflstomped badly - although haypro played really good, it were more the blunders of tarson than awsome moves of the zerg that decided the game; getting all marines owned by banes quite early on one point and not unsieging the tanks later on....not that pretty
