Good lord, welcome back to Desert Oasis. I love most everything you do for esports, but blaming one of the only slightly innovative maps in the map pool? I guess every map should be Akilon Wastes... The foreign mapping community doesn't need any more obstacles than they already have imo. | ||

If you wanna innovate, best to do it in a way that doesn't massively favour Terran sieging up under it. Even without tanks the elevation plays you can do on that base are insane. STC beat Alicia fair and square and honestly I'm really happy for him, he's been down about his results lately and this win will give him a boost, plus he lives in our house and that makes him family. We'll always cheers for family, even if it means our team loses out. However, that does not excuse the map design and I feel that base is poorly thought out. | ||

VOD's aren't up yet =( I have a feeling there were things Alicia could have done regardless of any complaints you try to make about your surroundings. If there's an "imbalance", learn to play around it. I'm sure the PvT w/r is not so terrible on that map, but I'm just guessing and haven't found the actual stats on it. Alicia might have veto'd it if it was that style of match, but if it's unavoidable and in the map pool, you'd think that eventually you'd come up with a strategy for it. Be it an all in or some sort of innovative technique. The point of all of this is that even if a map is imbalanced, crying about it doesn't make you or your team look good and it doesn't make anyone feel sorry for them or anything that a whine like that would try to accomplish. If you want it changed, talk to the people you need to talk to. Stop being bitter and making me dislike your team even more than I always have. | ||

I'm not really concerned about what you think about the team, since you seem like something of an asshole. I don't follow your "oh teamowners can't talk about map balance", as if we somehow wouldn't have a stake in doing just that or have a unique perspective that normal forum users lack. Seems like another case of "hey let's antagonise the well known guy because it makes us feel better". | ||
