A 'shit' league is the last place you want test maps because you want to see it at the highest levels. Having PL players playing on them is great, we can see what type of strategies comes out from the top gamers. But the format is good for it because teams can pick the race (that is why you see a lot of mirrors in BW PL as well due to maps). So if teams start stacking a certain race for a map (or not picking one of the races at all), Kespa can then see what the issues are and implement some tweaks. | ||

Its perfect because if a map is imbalanced you just dont play that race on it. Thats why they could make a map that is only good for TvT in proleague and it would be fine because you can just send out terrans for it. that's true but how do you know it's imbalanced? Arkanoid hails all the craziest shit and suddenly i do hear "oh this is rubbish, where are my beloved marine tanks\mass infestors\6queens abusive strategies!!11" whilst i thought everyone was whining on a stagnant meta. Here you got the potential for the new one. | ||

And so far theres no map that frequently features only once race, albeit a few PvP on Caldeum. At the same time, just look at Kerrigan Altar LE or Wonwonwonhana. Just tell me which map needs to be phased out after Round 1 please, no bias please. People calling Proleague a map-testing league just because their maps are unique is pure shortsighted | ||

Here you got the potential for the new one. Thing is, no one know whether it is balanced or imbalanced yet (well, maybe the kespa pros who have been playing a lot on it but still relatively new to them). I think people are all for new maps and strategies. We just would prefer to have it tested in a PL setting (teams can pick races) before it is unleashed to individual leagues like a GSL, MLG, etc. | ||
