9 zerg players qualify so they put in two of the worst zerg maps (close pos shattered is actually impossible) & abyssal which has seen almost no tournament play. What? I guess that's one way to balance the RO8.

A zerg will make it to the finals. Honestly, there's no one here that can beat NesTea even with these terrible maps except for MVP and maaaybe Dimaga.

We'll probably see MVP crush NesTea in the finals.

So Blizzard says that their maps are designed for the more casual players, and that they should not be used in tournaments. And then they use them for their biggest tournament... I hope at least it's MLG versions of them. But why use Abyssal?! I don't understand Blizzard =P

Xel'Naga and Antiga aren't exactly good ZvT maps either

Though I may have missed it, but it seems like they got the Chinese players sorted out with the Visa issue.

Original Chinese qualifirs were (Z)XiGua and (Z)Uhen. They couldn't make it so they invited (Z)Toodming and (T)Loner instead.

Congratulations Blizzard, you have officially made fools of yourselves. I can only hope someone from Blizzards reads this thread and sees the general response to the map pool.

Best part? Toodming lost in the group stages of the qualifier and Loner got knocked out first round of loser's bracket =/ This lineup looks so lacklustre.

This is actually much worse than the regional invitationals. I mean the map pools then were pretty bad. Now they've made them 10x worse lol

Yea I just read that, some pretty sad invites, would have at least them extended an invite to 3rd and 4th, but I guess the two they invited already had Visas?

I know Loner was at Blizzcon last year

so blizzard specifically stated that their own maps should not be used in tournaments, because they are not optimal for tournaments. and then they do a tournamen with a huge price money with exactly that mappool?

That must have been the case. No one else could get visas.
