I actually think Terran won't be dominating as many are thinking.
Terran early timings have been nerfed several times even after these maps were played. The maps are bad and cheese-friendly, but more balanced than before.

Yeah but I would say Terran macro play is even more scary than cheese/timings on maps like Jungle Basin and Steppes. Even something like Protoss FFE on steppes will be very difficult to beat. Its not like you can do anything to keep up economically with Protoss.

Since its about old maps: Are you going with the newest versions of the map or the older ones that were used more?
Like rocks at the ramps on desert oasis, 1 more base on Jungle Basin, etc

But awesome idea. I cant wait for it. Especially Incineration Zone. That map seemed to be the first Map ever to bebanned from the ladder :D

You underestimate roach rushes on that distance.

Though I think Terran should be favored, the metagame on those maps is fairly unexplored, some of them have extremly gamebreaking features and therefore I wouldnt be surprised to see some very wild games.
Also dont underestimate the experience of Ps (from PvP) when it comes to expansionless play.

wow Terrans gunna go to town on these maps Lol...

Zergs used to actually take some games on Steppes of War, Kulas, Jungle, Lost Temple, just because no one knew how to play. I predict a 0% winrate on these maps lol. Please don't April Fool me tho


I can see CatZ winning games on those maps


I'm looking forward to seeing people do fun things like the old spinecrawler pushes on steppes.

With a bit of thought and contemporary trends I'm definitely expecting a couple of surprises on some maps.

At least the most skilled player here is a Zerg. That's probably the only way to get a balanced tourney on these maps, Korean Zergs versus foreigners. Anyway it's going to be very interesting to see players try to get away with 2012 timings on 2010 maps.

I predict six pools.

Imagine that tourney producing amazing matches and everbody urging to play on these maps again and then the game becoming stable for such maps as well.
Just imagine a world with superactionpacked small maps, that are balanced.

Just a dream, but what a beautiful one.
