Part of the game. Players should learn to deal with it.

Sky never became really good vs. NE during the course of his career, but I don't think that detracts from his play. When he first emerged in the scene he was kind of a legend killer, defeating all the top players at the time with his new Human strats. But he faded away more quickly than Moon and Grubby.

To be fair, the best Humans in recent years have been people who could be considered his proteges - Infi and Th000, both of whom are much better vs. NE (esp. Infi).

the point is it shouldn't be part of the game when it favors one race so heavily over the other

I don't get all this moaning. Shit I play zerg. Every time I get close positions I cringe. 70% of the time I lose. Yet I suck it up and move on. TL whines.

I'm sure that Nestea knew that there will be close position possible so he could of not accepted the invite to play or tried to convince the organizers of the tournament to change it. Otherwise, if the player agrees to play on these maps, I do not understand all the moaning about it.

agree on these maps? you make it sound like they have a choice

they either have to play or not play, and saying they shouldn't play if it's unfavorable is a stupid argument

the game should be as balanced as possible, what is your point exactly?

Anyone has a rundown on the results thus far?

You make it sound like they don't have a choice. Do you think that if Nestea (one of the biggest stars of the game) declines the invitation because of the map pool, the organizers of the event will be happy? I think not.

I think the whole point for them is to have these big names play in the tournament and will try to cater to their requests.

You make it sound like Nestea will get fired by Gygabyte if he does not play on crappy maps.

And my point is that everyone knew the map pool, yet there is still whining about it.
