You cant balance those kind of maps, if by design it is fitting a certain matchup, if the map is favoring one of the races somehow, the map will be vetoed by the other race, but then comes the problem that its a map that they must play because they now have a more restricted map pool
I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. They can't be balanced? The very point of them is that they would be much more balanced than a non-MU specific map ever can be. Are you just saying that that's difficult to do? Obviously, but so is making a good map in general, and that doesn't stop Blizzard from releasing shitty ones all the time.
What I am saying that you cant have a specific map pool (even with bans) for every MU separately because maps cant be balanced 100%, every map has some sort of feature that will favor a specific race, meaning that players will be forced to play on maps that their race might have a disadvantage playing on. All maps are balanced in mirror because a race cant get an advantage off the map if played against itself unless its a multiple spawn map and a certain spawn can give advantage (I cant find examples, but a position where one takes natural away from the opponent but the other takes it towards the opponent, making it more exposed to drops). So you cant really make specific map pools because maps arent 100% balanced for certain MUs, so they just implemented the ban system that allows players to remove maps they know they have disadvantage.

Your'e swedish, why don't you use the metric system?
Well since Starcraft is made by americans i thought i should use this instead =P but alright
How tall is tod? 188cm? He looks 188cm.
I don't really know, I guess, we could estimate it by putting him next to Artosis, since I'm fairly sure Artosis is somewhere between 1,9 and 2m.
Artosis and Tasteless are about 185cm they said once during a cast. Well, they said they were 6'1"..
Are you sure? I mean I'm about 186 and Artosis seems to be taller than me. He seems to be bigger than most of the guys around him.
I'm sure they said that yes.

Life's ZvP isn't really that strong. There's a decent chance he will lose to StarDust

I'm 193cm, and I'm pretty sure I'm a lot taller than artosis

Nah no way Artosis is 6'6 (2m) Him and tasteless are both 6'2 I'm preeeeeeeeeeetty sure
So is TLO like inbetween 170-175? And then ToD should be around 190-192 cm right? if Artosis and Tasteless are 185
Your contribution to this thread makes me shed more tears than MKP in 2011

Ok guys, I give up, I have apperently overestimated Artosis height by quite a lot.
