So Gold players can't have opinions ? He said he supposed a thing and people bashing him... Not really nice. Well it's not SC2 but there were a lot of great games in BW on it. Savior did his part, UpMagic (dat Supply depot). Or if i remember correctly (i'm not really sure). There was a PvP with cool Dark Archon. Who was it ? I can't recall (no that was not Jaehoon) But yes it is NOT a balanced map. None of the KESPA BW maps were (can't think of one). Also there was cool games on Blood Bath :p (MBC Game attack i think). I really think that stupid maps like that serves to entertain the public. And when some zerg will pull of his hat a crazy strat to do it will be so cool I remember that the imbalance on some maps made cool strats. For exemple the barracks behind the mineral line from Boxer against... euh... no don't remember. A protoss. Boxer was really good at studying map. When all maps are balanced you always see the same thing over and over again. (i'm exagerating of course) [QUOTE] Wtf? Okay, it doesn't have to be perfectly balanced, but at least most BW maps that stayed popular had the decency to have close to 50% win ratios for each matchup. Not saying certain SC2 maps don't, but I think it's fair to say that crap maps are crap maps, and it's stupid to let a map like this fly by saying "ooh, but...interesting strats!" That's pretty stupid when considering the best strats are pulled off on maps that are fairly balanced. [/QUOTE] Yeah i know what you mean. Sorry i'm not really good at expressing myself in english. I'll try another round What i meant that a lot of Kespa BW maps were not balanced for everyrace. You had some stuff like : "Siege tank heaven" but in another expo you had the "zerglings runbys impossible to defend etc...". It was not all simetrical and produced great games. Even with those unbalanced they were like you said more solid ratios. But when a map couldn't be that good it will last only one season. Am i clearer ? Or is it more blurry than my first post ?  EDIT : damnit can't format my post | ||

If it was so obviously imbalanced proteams wouldn't send a zerg on it. I've never enjoyed watching proSC2 that much since the new proleague and most of it is due to the new maps. Besides, these are the first sc2 maps ever that Kespa makes so let's give them a chance. Which I think is more sad, then good. On December 18 2012 19:06 FFW_Rude wrote: Yeah i know what you mean.

Also, it's not as bad as Battle Royal or some other past proleague maps... Paranoid Android also comes to mind. | ||

Watching the same build orders on the same maps over and over again is exactly why I stopped watching Sc2. I appreciate that KeSPA is trying to liven up the game. Balance is not a factor in my enjoyment of the games played on any map. Also, it's not as bad as Battle Royal or some other past proleague maps... Paranoid Android also comes to mind. Battle Royal was so bad that even as a zerg player I hated it. -_- | ||

It is the largest SC Team Prizepool that I am aware of. (also biggest prizepool, but it's not fair to compare player vs team tourneys) | ||
