Should it though? The first game was so one-sided you have to assume Stats would have completely destroyed him if he'd scouted any of that. Not even a moral victory in there.

is winning with a mothership a moral victory either though

I would assume pressing the storm button and making entire armies disappear is a moral victory, but I would need a Protoss to confirm.

Maybe that's why he donated it to that Hydra drop once.

So why isn't this played on the ladder map pool? Because the qualifiers weren't? I mean come on, it's been over a week since the pool was changed and nobody likes Blood Boil and Defender's Landing anyway. Except mass reaper players, whose feelings can be neglected.

It isn't? I hadn't noticed since we're playing on Odyssey, Ascension, Abyssal every series... Though there was that one game on Proxima, so you must be right.

While that's true, at least you can queue up ladder to play on those.

Really? Why people hate Catallena is obvious, but I'm surprised Mech Depot is so disliked.

u cant scout. attacking 4th vs zerg is almost impossible cause they just run by its a mix of aiur and oddysey on 1 map for some reason map mapers think all maps should be huge. yet best map so far in recent years is abyssal and its not a huge map. alas

The map contests are built in a way that only huge beachy macro maps can win unfortunately.

It's borderline all that can participate.

We're still getting off easy, remember when the requirement was in-base natural?

It wasn't for long. They removed that requirement half-way through the week they gave mapmakers to prepare their maps.

Well, at least Afreeca and SPOTV are smart enough to use their own map pools.
