There isn't one area on the whole map which isn't narrow making engaging a toss favourably impossible, and there are just ledges which scream siege tank abuse everywhere on top of being narrow being good for terran too. I wonder what race you play....rofl. Grats Pat, glad to see the map team getting recognition. <3 | ||

Also you will find that most people lump up things like MSL into the term "Star League" (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=226236). So yea I learned a bit today but I still feel like this is fair. | ||

Diamond is correct in that other leagues are often lumped together as "starleagues" by non-Koreans, and for that reason I think his usage of the term is fair, but technically there is only one Starleague and that's the Ongamenet Starleague. In fact, I'm pretty sure that Ongamenet has trademarked "Starleague" | ||

Except you have a natural you can actually defend, and splitting the map by the xel nagas is impossible because of all of the surface area you have to cover (plus that fucking roundabout route on the side expansions). Ah, thank you :D. Cloud Kingdom is more vertical too, meaning sensor towers will be better, which will help mech as well :D | ||
