The only problem with a lot of them is possible close spawn positions. And just because the map has clown spawn possibility doesn't mean its gonna automatically be a close spawn cheesy game.



Have you ever heard of something called Mutual Supply Depot at the bottom of each ramp in all the GSL/MLG maps for the corresponding Ladder map? Now why do you think these event organizers would augment the maps to put such building in place? Use your head, thanks.


I'm pretty sure they're called "neutral" supply depots. Sorry, it was bugging me.

you should all actually be glad that this

maybe when every single zerg gets cheesed out when they play close position blizzard will finally understand the problem

a similar thing happened in very early warcraft 3. blizzard stubbornly refused to see the problem with mass catapults, until mass catapults completely and utterly destroyed their end of beta invitational

I honestly wish two more koreans entered...
oGsMC and another strong korean Terran like MKP or Taeja would really put the icing on the cake

I actually think Nestea has a better chance than MVP in this. I think MVP will be practicing for his TvT match-up and certain maps for his GSL finals against MMA. I think Nestea will have more time practicing these specific maps (which NO ONE plays competitively) and other match-ups. Zerg hwaiting!!!

The best thing that could happen at Blizzcon is for MVP to face Nestea in the finals and for the last game in an epic series to be on Shattered Temple close spawns, and then for Nestea to GG as soon he scouted.

That would be the best thing.

Does the tournament surprise anyone really? Blizzard just makes the games (and arguably not well enough), they don't throw good events or tournaments. That's up to the community.

Pros:
Good prize pool for top 3
Good players invited
Well advertised and played tournament (I guess?)
(trying to think of more, can't really)

Cons:
Shitty ladder maps
Marginal choice of casters (I dont care but this seems to be an issue to others)
Invite only tournament (no way for players around the world to earn their spot)


I'd say this is more of an exhibition tournament than anything else. Obviously us hardcore players and fans shouldn't take it for more than that just because the prize money is high. From blizzard's perspective they aren't really putting up that much money at all in comparison to their wealth and amount put up by less wealthier organizations and peoples.

PS- why is select listed as korean when hes north american (just korean heritage).
A man is what he thinks about all day long.

I wanted a Plott Bros' cast
JP is a fantastic host/content producer but his casting isn't really good.
I hope he improves though! All for E-sports!

It's like Blizzard wants to pump resources into a headline event but is then to stubborn to realise that some of their maps are just plain awful. $50,000 is an amazing first place prize but if i can just imagine the finals being ruined by pure map randomness.

Saying that, the player list is insane Mvp should win this; i mean, who can really stop him!

The people he beats that he should never beat is astounding. He said he wanted to hit a Korean for an early upset at WCG, the stage is set...
