from my experience that map isnt made for exciting games.
frost is kinda favoring early aggression (typical for non-shared base maps) because it easily forces a 2v1 situation if only one guy decides to macro a bit because he cant help his partner gettin rekt by double 1base push then.
same could be said about sacred path. dno how long the rocks actually give u time tho.
w/e im fine as long as there are at least some macro maps in the pool. the last tourney showed how often rushes got denied on the bigger maps and the cheesy team quite often got shit on. the rush maps are usually a bit coinflip tho. because bo wins happen more often when cheese is favored i think. especially for unexperienced 2v2 players. but thats just my guess.
i'll enjoy it either way

If MMA and Ryung end up resorting to cheeses, that would put the cream cheese icing on a red velvet cake.

well, im watching and playing 2v2 exlusively for the past 4 years. i also liked preservation at the beginning when i was playing it. but from a viewer perspective its kinda boring for me. myb because it has no backdoor and seems 1-dimensional. only reason that comes to mind. dno awell^^

MMA and Ryung? Impact too busy being banished to dish duty to team up again?

could you please consider using this?

this map looks kinda decent from my casual point of view -_- depending on the unique side of the mappool i would recommend giving this one a try also because at least meavis knows what hes doing!

Now that I look at it again, I really like it. The main is great, with the two small ramps that are closer to each other for the attacker than for the defender. Can be interesting rush situations with wall in. And the open middle and bases seem to allow for a lot of harassment. Then again, I am platinum and probably have no idea what I am talking about.
|
Also, being a non blizzard map, it is not stuffed full with destructible rocks until it overflows, which must be a great relief for any player.

rofl um Rain & Journey... their team name doesn't actually mean Honey Jam XD "Kkool jem" is short for "Fun as Honey" or i guess super fun? idk it doesn't translate accordingly XD
|
let's go taeja and revival
|
the only way taeja and revival lose this is if taeja doesnt make a lot of vikings
|
Large 2vs2 battles between high-level players are so fun to watch.
|
I've been more engaged and interested in this tournament then most sc2 content nowadays.
Its' nice to have something fresh and action-packed.
I hope you continue it!

revival mvp in this tournament
taeja and revival both so good tho
|
Roach-bio turns out to be pretty good.

Working on setting up a rebroadcast for in a couple hours for those that missed it

Bout time someone realizes, but not 2v2 only 3v3 is much better

Watching now the EU firendly Rebroadcast. Really want to see more 2v2 action.
Viewers love it.
The Koreans like to play it (with very cool teams)
2v2 gonna make gaem alive.
|
PLEASE MOAR TEAM GAMES IN SC.
im sorry for caps, but how is that not exciting? Good job Rifkin
|
this is why SC2 needs more attention to 2v2

I only caught parts of it, but from what I saw it was pretty entertaining. iirc Gumi/Choya went for some sort of aggressive mass reaper + phoenix combo, while Heart went marine/mine (?) and Crank one base stalkers. Then the aggression got repelled and the Axiom guys won.

I'm finally through watching the whole tournament in the 'past broadcasts' section ( http://www.twitch.tv/basetradetv/v/3798433 <-- 4k views doesnt seem too shabby considering it was rebroadcasted aswell no?)
the parting 1v2 was pretty epic. also revivals all over the place roaches and taeja totally wrecking havoc with every single unit was really fun to watch.
i was anticipating korean level 2v2s since 4 years now. (congratz TB for going full cpt obvious btw)
i am following the higher level 2v2 scene since the very beginning but top korean level 2v2s are really something else. its just awesome! so fuck hell keep up the good work :D
(well, actually there has been ONE kinda similar event http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2012_MLG_Pro_Circuit/Spring/Arena_1/2v2_Tournament but look at that date! :p)
PS: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Two_vs_Twournament_V2.2
so actually only the foreigners and the champions of the last tourney (team axiom) were able to take a single map off the dominating winners (taeja & revival). i would've really liked to see that ro16 match tbh. the clash of korean gosuness and foreign 2v2 players is generally interesting from my pov

Just arriving at the final in the VOD now! Great tournament!
And you talked about replay pack? pl0x?
