Blizzard would use professional Brood War maps back when they held BW tournaments. The sc2 team is pretty ignorant and stubborn with their map pool. (been cited many times as referring to their map pool as "casual friendly") | ||

I was pretty sure, I remember that because of the supply depots at the base of the ramp and that people in the LR thread were making fun of Blizzard because their invitational was not even using Blizzard maps . *shrug* | ||

I wonder how many games does MVP have to play on Friday before GSL Finals... assuming he makes it to the semis of course. The schedule on Blizzcon's page doesn't give any details, only listing Starcraft II Match 1, 2, 3 etc. Winner finals will be played on Saturday 1pm. | ||

The map pool might not be ideal, but this knee-jerk rage reaction from so many posters seems way over the top. Sure it may be knee-jerk, but to be fair this is a pretty big tournament held by the game developer itself. If I'm not mistaken, there's a significant prize pool involved as well as the pride of being the annual Blizzcon champion (global champion?). So the reaction about the map-pool is expected because very few of the current Blizz maps are used in the majority of the tournmanets. Sure, a Blizz map may be better than dual sight, but is dual sight really that bad? [see Nestea v. MVP game 4 (MVP wins)] Also, I hope they do not have close positions on any aforementioned "trap" maps. They just ask for short and coin-flip games. | ||

This is more of a map 'puddle', no? I honestly cannot understand blizzards arrogance. No one thinks they are the best map makers except themselves. They should suck it up and copy another tournament instead of insisting these same old maps are quality work -_- | ||

Dimaga can't touch MVP right now, and please don't bring up a game that had to be regamed that occured over 6 months ago. | ||

And yes, I will bring up a game that was regamed over 6 months ago. And the follow-up game. Who won that tournament btw? Who was the terran that was on fire during that time? Fast forward to now: which Terran is on fire? Which zerg provides the most innovative and crazy enough builds to throw him off completely? (I can maybe throw Stephano in the mix, but he wont be at Blizzcon so meh). | ||

He has maybe a 10% chance, if MVP is sick or something. And that's your opinion, which in my opinion is silly too. =) | ||
