Finals at 9:00 EST Wednesday June 29th! See you there!

Its been 5 months of epic battles. 5 Tournaments on maps that no one had seen before, but still put Blizzard to shame. And now, in month #6, its time for the Grand Finals of Season 1.

TeamLiquid.net's best mapmakers worked day and night to create 25 amazing maps. Over the last 5 months, they've been whittled down to 5.

Three past winners are in the line-up: sixjax.dde, coLDdoRo, and FourKExO. The new team Reign is represented by RGNPheonix, previously known as pheonixwerra. And of course, the mapping community has sent one of its own in the person of Volta (aka WniO)!

There will be epic battles. There will be amazing holds. Watch as those champions of the US Starcraft 2 scene battle it out for a spot in the MotM history and the $150 first prize!

Map of the Month will be cast June 26th at 9:00 pm EST and June 27th at 7:30 pm EST.

For more information about MotM, see our organization thread!

We've put together a pretty friggin awesome casting team for this event!

Chill and MrBitter will be cocasting every match from the tournament! Its arguable whether Chill is better known for his casting in the TSL or his banhammer power on Liquid forums. MrBitter, of course, is the host of 12 Weeks with the Pros, and recently casted for the NASL, as well as being a member of team VT. Both Chill and MrBitter have great analytical casting styles mixed with fantastic wit.

Tune in June 26th and 27th (time TBD) for some amazing casts and games!

The Staff and Fans of Map of the Month have pitched in to fund the $200 prize pool! A first prize of $150 and a second prize of $50 will be awarded to the #1 and #2 finishers, respectively.

If you would like to donate to MotM, email igrok.motm@gmail.com for more information.

Oh, that is really nice.

Sorry if I tune in for the casters and the maps moreso than the players (<3 dde + Spanishiwa) though. :D


Will there be the usual poll amongst players for best map? The reward for the map winning this MotM grand finals should be being included in the Blizz ladder pool or at least some of the bigger tournaments. :p

Not quite as good as the new blizzard ladder maps... Wait what, I meant roughly a million times better then the blizz maps. I still think Sanctuarium is one of the best, if not the best SC2 map made.

And you got Chill and MrBitter to cast!?This is going to be pretty epic, really looking forward to this!

Don't forget Whiplash, DdoRo, and Zelniq! (and obviously everybody else, since all the players are outstanding).

At the conclusion of the tournament, I'll form a petition calling for the winning map to be added to the Blizzard Ladder, as well as the NASL, IPL, and GSL map pools. Hopefully we can get enough people to sign it!
