I was gonna say that but since the pro players were saying it was slightly terran favored I didn't want to go that far. Well, Destiny said so at least


It really shifts in from z favoured to terran favoured durng the late game imo. When all bases come into play it's good for Terran.


Any map is good for Terran when all bases come into play.
The point of mutalisk play is to not let them get those bases in the first place.


Hm well, there are 12 bases, when all bases come into play it could it's split 6/6.

On maps with a different layout it could go 7/5 for example. But on Sejong it's always a split. I hate maps that are automatically split in the late game.

I think the point of mutas is more to defend drops and keep your own bases alive, than to harass or deny bases in the current meta where Terran just keeps pushing.

This "exact split" function is what made Newkirk Precinct give us some ridiculously long TvZ games such as Killer vs. Thorzain and Bomber vs. Goswser. I agree that maps shouldn't be guarenteed to be a 50/50 split in the end game


Yeah, I guess it can make for some epic games.

Those games were epic-ish but they also became stalemates that were drawn out and not very exciting in the end.

For some reason I was expecting more bias from snute for taeja.

I guess they're not that close.

Or he just doesn't want to sound bias.

But I mean he could just hate his guts,

He could be sore that TaeJa knocked him out

Might be a small factor I guess.

seconded. Daybreak was wayyyyy better than Whirlwind every was. It got a bit lame because of how sorted everything was by the end, but it was a solid map. As good, if not better than Steppes of War.

Denying the fifth is the critical point.


Exactly. And in the current metagame, I think denying the 4th is actually very common, at least in the Korean metagame.


I will keep that in mind, I just lost today on this map, after being really ahead in the midgame. I defended every push and drop and had the earlier 2/2, but I didn't counter for the kill and he got his 4th and 5th up and I still died to his 3/3 force.

On topic, gooo Scarlett, I want 5 maps!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
