Cant you just remove rocks at 3rd to fix TDA? Personally I like TDA as a map but I realize the rocks completely fucks up Z in the current meta game with fast 3rds. But rather than just removing the map, cant you just remove the rocks?

That will make it 80% zerg win.

Dear lord MLG, how in world can it be so hard to change the map pool... If you are too lazy to figure out which maps you should use by yourselves, just use the maps GSL uses. Come the fuck on...

Best to voice displeasure with map pool directly to MLG rather than letting it sit on a post on TL.

I bet if you were playing BW you would have still liked LT and Python too.

MLG Metropolis - No Close by Ground Spawns
MLG Shakuras Plateau - No Close by Ground Spawns
MLG Tal’darim Altar - All Spawns Allowed

Are you kidding me ?

There are so many awesome maps and mapmakers out there and we still play those terrible terrible maps -_- Wake up MLG ffs, it's been 2 years..

I'd imagine it's too late for them to change the maps now. What a disaster. Many of these esports events do so many incredible things with so few resources yet still manage to fumble small, easily correctable things like the map pool that have such a massive effect on the games. It hurts my soul.

Why ? It's not like they are going to put completely new maps that nobody knows. No... They will put tournament maps that are used in every single tournament and are well known to everyone. Also I'm sure that no one will train for maps like Shakuras and Tal'darim, because it's a waste of time.

This has got to be a mistake..
The 2nd and 3rd most important games in the tournament being cast at the same time? I'm finding it hard to believe they made this sort of scheduling blunder.

Or did they... ?

Maybe there is some top secret agreement with Blizzard to use shitty maps?

However, the upcoming MLG Championship in Raleigh will include the World Championship Series North America Finals.


Really? I'm not sure if i'm interpreting this properly, but it seems like two tournaments in the one weekend. You'd think after the huge amount of negative feedback players gave they wouldn't do this again.

It's likely that they didn't want to deal with the possibility of having to show up to 21 games starting at 4PM (and that time assumes that the previous six rounds of the loser's bracket finish on schedule).

Mr. John Nelson, Tyrant of MLG Rules, of course.
