That's great, the stats show that it's probably the most balanced map in proleague, but that doesn't mean that certain strats on this map aren't stupid, or that people aren't taking advantage of them. ZvP on this map is basically: Protoss expands to the nat: expand to third and collosus push OR take the gold as nat and 2 base immortal all in on steroids, zerg then responds by having the ultimate mid game swarmhost map, if neither of them successfully occur a counter push ends the game, or it stabilises into a 45min+ sh vs tempest game. Why on earth should that be the sort of map you want? There are maps with stats that are far worse and yet I think this is the second worse map in the proleague pool before yeonsu.
Idk why I responded to you tbh, I don't think you'll agree with me, and I'm not changing my mind any time soon.

Strategies can't both be too strong and statistically balanced; by definition.
What it sounds like is that you dislike long, drawn out, map position dependent PvZ games that involve SH and believing your preference translates to facts.
