Why are they calling him Special? Has GSL acknowledging the name Special broken an sc2-long tradition of everyone ignoring MajOr's name changes?

Nah. All spawns enabled as usual. And I also disagree about forcing cross spawns. At that point why bother with a four player map.


because 4p maps are radially symmetric and really big advantages can be gaind just from spawning somewhere fortunate. for example on Honor grounds any terran who's worth listening to will tell you that spawning with your inbase expansion close to your oponents base is a huge disadvantage in TvT. also your main attack path is through his watch tower. his main attack path in this spawn position lets him walk up to your 3rd, siege it and begin attacking without ever being vision of watch tower.


cactus is a lot better in these spawn positions but i still dont think its fair. cross spawn games on cactus feel and watch better i think.

If you have a 4 player map that's cross-spawns only, you could probably make that map better by turning it into a two-player map. Also I'm not a huge fan of cross-spawns on 4 player maps generally since they tend to have awkwardly long rush distances and stuff.

yeah thats a good point and I think the trade off is that mirrors suck a little bit but the non-mirrors are better

You cam do rotational symmetry well (WW) or you cam do it terribly (Cactus Valley ZvT)
