antiga is too terran favored imo. Dont mind the fact that it is not in the map pool

metropolis is a much worse map, it's currently more zerg favoured than terran ever was on antiga (and terran vs. zerg on antiga is even)

I honestly think Zerg is starting to like Antiga, if you get creep at the terrans fourth, you essentially win the game, its near impossible to take the high ground with the fast creep.

bo7 with 2 games advantage is huge, it could lead to an anticlimatic 2-0 grand final ... and *plouf* game over.

I like BO9 with 2 games up personally.

What about BO69 with 8 games up?

nah, too little advantage
a bo9 with 2 games up:
-can get to seven games (normal finals length)
-is an equivalent of a bo3 up (2 games)
-WF winner needs 3 games, LF winner needs 5 games

I think that's pretty fair personally?


It's not really fair, imo the winners bracket guy needs a 2x advantage. I.E: 4 Best of threes, starting up by 2 sets.

Bit disappointed with metropolis in the map pool, its a pretty bad map and IPL could have done what they did previously and use some not quite as well known community map to bring it into the spotlight, still, this tournament is looking really great.

Kinda disappointed at the inclusion of both Ohana and Entombed in the map pool.

Problem is most players won't practise "new" maps, just veto them.

Yes they will. Every top player will practise the new maps. Whether they veto them depends mostly on which race they will decide the map favors.

a lot of korean progamers have said they have little experience on the new GSL maps, though, so not all i guess

whoa, the line up is even more stacked than the actual Word championship; I think this could be the real world championship to see who are the best of the best.
