MarineLorD won NW3 essentially by himself. But the one man army teams haven't made a final since then. So you know, if nothing else, it's something different. | ||

Doesn't even feel like you can play a half decent game of mech on it. Tbf the total amount of gas on the map didn't change, so I think mech wasn't particularly good on it in the first place. | ||

Of course, the map just sucks for Terran in general anyway so there's no reason to play on it outside of BO7. | ||

Yeah it's pretty awful in TvZ. 45% on Liquipedia, but only 37% if you filter out games between weaker players... Makes it the fifth worse TvZ map in LotV. | ||

Makes it the fifth worse TvZ map in LotV. It's depressing that there's 4 worse ones. What are they? Clem is probably the positive surprise of this NW. Hopefully he can retain this level for 2020 and be a relevant Terran hope. | ||

I'd say it counts as botched when you're not even attacking them but just taking a leisurely stroll into the locusts as they fire at you and block your path. Also it's one of the most important things with that playstyle to know where your opponent is and not get hopelessly surrounded tbh. | ||
