That looks like too many maps. Nice prize payout though. Bit better than MLG's.

I don't understand Xel'Naga Caverns, it's like that Volcano-map blizz failed at.

I'm the only one finding Xel'Naga Caverns incredible zerg favoured? You can't block off your natural expo, there's 3 entrances along with unblockable terrain?

But very nice pricepool.

Yes you're the only one. Any map where you can't defend your ramp with the spine crawlers at your expo is a bad map for zerg.

Try 5 gate. Or 4 gate stalkers.

In diamond league most zergs know how to place crawlers well.

And i like macro games, as it takes skill.
