No, they are right, the map is bad and it needs to be called out as such until it is removed or changed. It is however appalling that Blizzard can force these abominations down the throats of all their partners, especially a tournament played at the highest level.


you know what is an abomination? free ball vs death ball.

and it happens in every other map with free natural and free 3rd

And in proleague it's 14-6 in favour of Terran. Statistics are fun like that.

Deadelus is a like a lever you can turn to moderate the protoss population. The more protosses there are, the more the map comes up. If you are protoss and you play against zerg in the later stages of the group play, when lots of protoss have already advanced, you have to play it 80% of the time. Sounds reasonable.

Maps with imbalance are ok as long as there is somewhat of a fight to watch. With Daedalus we get neither. I just watched a Protoss trying a desperation move and then 2 bases behind leaking from every sides & getting his half dozens units murdered by a ton of zerglings and muta.

I much prefer it when casters tell the truth. The map is bad. Everyone knows it's bad. Trying to pretend otherwise would be dishonest and unprofessional.


Sure say the map is bad at start, say it when maybe something happens bacause the map is bad. The map is bad and its imabalnced for zerg, its enough nobody has to rant about it for WHOLE GAME. I enjoyed whole todays cast but this was just bitter end.

Yep, and if you look at the small but way larger sample size in Aligulac's period 102, PvT is pretty balanced.

Although, I would throw a tiny little rock in the garden of DK, who DID use those 20 proleague games to make a balance judgment.

There is literally nothing to talk about in games on the map though. Either a cheese wins it or there's a ten minute death animation for the Protoss player.

What part of:
Either a cheese wins it or there's a ten minute death animation for the Protoss player.


Has anything to do with W/L stats? I mean jese, one of those wins was an offensive wall-off. So yeah, its possible to win if you do some of the weirdest cheese ever. Hardly makes it stable. >_>

I think it only works if the zerg derps a train of roaches up against the contain for like 3 minutes before going for the nydus though.

And P won with 3 cheese...Z won by scouting cheese and countering or 10 minute death animation.

I think we can all agree that it is a bad map, regardless of statistics.
But unfortunately, it is here to stay at least for this season.

Yes, it is entertaining at first because it is different. But the problem is we will definitely see a lot of it since most Zergs WILL pick it.

I don't say the map is balanced, its just if you are clearly better you can still win with a macro game.
