Yeah. Definitely agree. Arkanoid is the only map I can think of where reapers would be worse.

Interestingly. Nerchio wasn't surprised (as he himself noted here). It was probably kinda meta-metagame, where uThermal tried to do it on the least expected map, but was called on the bluff anyway.

uThermal probably just went "Fuck it, reapers." despite the map being awful for it, and Nerchio just knows him well enough to call it.

edit: Also none of the maps left are particularly good reaper maps imo, though Korhal Killzone and Namaste are better than Flame Juggler.

I'd veto this map on ladder just because of the bad creep blending. Central protocol all over again.

I'd veto that map because the terrain near the third and gold is incredibly abusive, and because the bottom of the map is incredibly irrelevant and weirdly spaced out.

The creep blending thing is really easy to fix if the mapmaker wants to.

But it never happened on Central protocol. I couldn't even see where my workers are on that map, it was really terrible.

Well you can edit your variables.txt to fix it for you only. Or in this case angrily tweet @SC2_avex so that he fixes it on Namaste.

This is getting a little bit offtopic, but can you tell me what exactly to edit in varibales to fix this particular issue? It would make my life brighter

I think you can set creepnormalmap to 1 (or zero if you want no animations whatsoever)

I've been really impressed by beastyqt's builds this tournament. They've always been so suitable for the map.

I wasn't disputing that it was his worst. I was saying it's a testament to Nerchio's godliness. Even in his worst matchup he's wrecking face

The series today were only so and so. Watching uThermal lose the exact same way map after map was a bit dull. It did showcase the maps well though.

That's fair. Personally I'd take his TvZ over his TvT
