I don't get why people don't see the problem with Typhon Peaks.

Look at the vertical spawning positions. In PvZ and TvZ zerg will have a very hard time fending off strong two-base timing attacks. It will be just like it is on shakuras right now. Have people really not played this map enough to realize that? There's nothing zerg can do to defend their natural in those positions.

Typhon Peaks instead of Shakuras Plateau? Really GOM? Oh well I guess that's okay so long as they maintain a rotating pool.

Shakuras favored some races a lot more than others. Protoss/Zerg had a pretty hard time when connected via the back rocks vs Terran. Similiary, Zerg had issues with Protoss with the same deal, it also meant that Voidray/Colossus could get a free third base which is pretty huge since it is difficult to take a third base with that build until its very late into the game

Metalopolis is the last map from the "original" map pool left in the GSTL then... (and I imagine it will transfer over to the GSL).

Just from the pictures, I like the new map choices. I think the player feedback about the Blizzard one, Typhon Peaks, was generally positive as well.


Nope, Xel'Naga Caverns is still there.

It's hilarious that people are talking so much about map pools when the biggest news is clearly KT sponsoring the GSTL. I wonder what the future holds in store.

Edit: Maybe not?

I'm kinda speechless that KT is getting involved in Star2. Really cool.
There's no S in KT. :P

Since writing this thread, information in GomTV.com has changed. The statues of the new sponsor seems to be up in the air at the moment.

GSTL March will be sponsored by KT (Korea Telecom)


Just noticed the change in the OP. Seems a bit strange that they would announce the sponsor then retract it later.

So is there any definite news on this yet?

Xel'Naga Fortress !!! Yay for an endorsed 3P map making the cut! Dual sight also looks pretty big and juicy

If GSTL2 lives up to the hype that GSTL1 left behind it will be a ridiculous event!

Go go go oGs and IM :O

Maybe they noticed the reactions so they took it out for a bit. I can't imagine GOM just trolling by randomly making up sponsors and then changing them.
Other explanation is that KT got killed by Kespa assassins.

I don't really think the spoonsor thing is such a bif deal. It is KT not KT Rolster we're talking about, that is Alleh KT a mobile phone operator, so it's a private company and they can sposor sc2 without any problem, Kespa can't do anything about it.
So KT wants to advertise on both bw and sc2 scenes good for them, but sposoring a GSL isn't the same has sponsoring a team, since there is not risk involved in the former and it's limited in time. I think they're just testing the water, but considering how well KT Rolster goes, i don't think they will close it anytime soon.
