When teams pick players, do they know the map before they pick the player?

Pretty sure that's the SC2 mentality, if a map isn't 50-50 for every matchup its shit and people are going to whine endlessly about it.

I don't think jyp will be bad, there are PUMA and Zenio there, but they decided to put jyp out. Clearly, he shouldn't be a pushover.

also his only PvZ losses recently are to Code S zergs: Life (GSL Champ), HyuN (GSL Runner up), and a bo1 to BBoongBBoong (who appears to have learned how to play ZvP these days recently beating Seed, Crank, JYP, among outhers). EffOrt looked pretty bad last week. JYP definitely has a chance

And there's no point in carrying over bw statistics, that was a different game This is not realistic, you don't seem to know what the Proleague is. It's not a BW statistic, it's a league statistic. Foreigners haven't played or won in Proleague for a very long time. That's going to change very soon This is a very exciting time to be in. You should be excited and watching the games. I don't think it makes sense to carry over broodwar statistics. There was no foreign scene, unless a couple hundred amateurs playing four hours a day while going to school counts.
he's referencing when we had foreigners legitimately playing in Korea hardcore and shit
like MANY MANY MOONS AGO

Didn't like any of the games so far. The best one was the JD one, but even that wasn't really good. kind of disappointing. I blame the maps.

What is up with Leta anyway, where have you gone

Okay, maybe I'm wrong then. But he's not as good as he used to be.

All you know is the map
you pick players for each map. On a map like TDA, you can assume that no protoss is going to be fielded, so you probably want to play a zerg or terran on that map. That's why so many ZvZs take place on TDA in pro league

I remember when David Kim said something along those lines and the community crucified him, despite the fact that many other people had been saying the same thing for a long time.

Aye those picks worked out ok, although I think a top-form Puma is as good if not better than JYP he's not been up there for a while. Puma's vZ is a bit wonky of late, Zenio's formerly godlike ZvZ is pretty poor of late and JYP, while reasonably well-rounded is still a vZ specialist.

It's not a BW statistic. It's a league statistic. Not of legends. The unified Proleague has been running for a long time. Did you know that EGTL is not the first foreign team to play in it?
