Gom special tournaments always have a different map pool from regular seasons, this is just them trying out new maps they think might work, this isn't even close to being an indication for next years map pool.

Wrong... they have almost always been 95% similar. The only thing different is AoL's typically start midway through a season. This is the first time it's starting prior to the season.

AoL 1: Only the removal of XNF and Bel'Shir Beach from AoL map pool.

AoL1 map pool:
Daybreak • Dual Sight • Crossfire SE • Antiga Shipyard • Tal'Darim Altar LE • Terminus SE • Metalopolis

GSL October map pool:
Antiga Shipyard • Bel'Shir Beach • Crossfire SE • Daybreak • Dual Sight • Metalopolis • Tal'Darim Altar LE • Terminus SE • Xel'Naga Fortress


AoL2: Exactly the same as GSL Nov.

AoL2 map pool:
Antiga Shipyard • Bel'Shir Beach • Calm Before the Storm • Crossfire SE • Daybreak • Dual Sight • Tal'Darim Altar LE

GSL November map pool
Antiga Shipyard • Bel'Shir Beach • Calm Before the Storm • Crossfire SE • Daybreak • Dual Sight • Tal'Darim Altar LE
.

Please research before posting. Thanks.

EDIT: On that note, GOM usually test maps independently of their tournaments. I believe Gisado and the mapmakers are part of that process. The shortest map in GSL map pool history (including GSL special tournaments) is probably Typhon Peaks, which was only in GSTL 2 and out immediately.

MKP or DRG or Leenock.

I do hope MKP wins, if only to fulfill the Kong legend.

MKP, Dongraegu, and Leenock are the favorites to win here. It's good to have a nice, not serious tournament once in while.
I'd laugh if the 2nd place finisher gets a special trophy or medal instead of 1st place.

You're obiously right about True Kong winning special events, but tell me if it wouldnt be funnier to see them crowning the Ultimate Kong whoever took 2nd place?

Also would it qualify as a normal "special event" ? After all whoever takes second may not be the King of Kong but will be the Kong of Kongs.

Oh wow, Rainbow. I'm so surprised to see him on there, I watch his stream every now and then (and his girlfriend's stream, she actually does better than he does, I'd like to see her in the GSL) and he's a great guy, I've missed seeing him in tournaments.

I wish they would do this at the GomTV studio. I am visiting Korea for the winter break and I wish I can see it live :/

Go DRG.

If you think Afrodite is better than Rainbow you are looking too much to her webcam

This is hilarious but I will be really sad if MKP can't even be called a true Kong if he somehow loses.

So the winner wins the tourney and money.

The finals loser is crowned the true Kong.

I get it

edit: I was wrong, true kong explained!

I really am more curious on who will be the Kong of Kong's than the King (we already know its MarineKing).

Hahahaha. Nice to see GOM's sense of humor extend to tourneys. Wonder if the second place winner will be the TRUE winner.
