O well you fought well, opponent played good and unusual build in G 3, it was very close, someone just have to lose, unfortunately this time it was you  But you showed great macro skills, great creep spread, decent micro, and you are in Korea for like - 2 weeks? We can all expect to see more from Ret, i hope  | ||

Just because a map is good for zerg doesn't mean that it's not good for Terran as well. Maps like Steppes are much more Terran favored than Metalopolis is favored for zerg (if it is at all.) | ||

No, cross position meta is NOT neutral. Shakuras is NOT neutral. Those 2 are good zerg maps/positions, and certainly not neutral. | ||

Those 2 are good zerg maps/positions, and certainly not neutral. I agree that both a zerg favored, but terrans still have very good options on cross metalopolis. Drops and banshees are both really effective because of the ledges (of course, mutalisks are good as well for the same reason) and seigetanks can hold a lot of ground quite easily. Question is, is it possible that the metagame will change in the future so Terrans realize they can play effective macro games? As it is now, terrans play with the intention of rushing or harassing aggressively, which makes any map with any form of distance "imba" for Zerg. Maybe in a cross position game on Metalopolis, a terran CAN take 50% of the map without having to do allin pushes and then abuse the cliffs? As it stands currently, it's definitely zerg favored, but it's questionable just how much of an advantage zerg actually has on it if the metagame changes. | ||

Every unit serves it's purpose. | ||

It's sorta like sometime some things you think are obvious logically are actually not at all what ithey seem to be because of some unforseen circumstances. And maybe sometimes balance can be found in the most unimaginable places. and to all people who call me troll, i am armed with fact, yall are armed with big mouths and racial bias. any of you who called me out, go ahead prove im wrong. good luck. | ||

Was rooting for Ret all games but just a look at the maps kind of made me less optimistic and rightfully so. It doesn't make it easy when these Koreans come up with deadly all ins that outright win the game or at least leave you so behind that you can't win the Macro game. Conclusion : Blizzard needs to get their mapmaking team to work and come up with balanced maps. So far if it's small it's Terran favored .. if it's big it's probably Zerg favored. If it's got cliffs and ledges then it's Protoss an Terran favored etc. Either that our GSL should at least give the thumbs down option back. Next round HongUn meets the dude that eliminated Ret. HongUn needs to be All in proof or he'll be the next Genius who bites the dust. | ||

On Shakuras T can get a super-easy 3rd and 4th as well and split the map with tanks in the center. Just park 5 tanks behind the grass on your side of the map and you just secured your side. On meta there's no position that lets you do that unless you wall off 2 chokes with double planetary fortresses (there was an old game of morrow vs ret doing it), so zerg can easily counter if you decide to push, so if your push doesnt win the game right then and there, you just insta lost. Also on Shakuras if you get closer spawns, you can break the rocks and go into Z's main from the side with siege tanks, which is stupid imba, because they can reach almost to the main lair/hatch from below. | ||
