Denying a third, hahahahaha

What current metagame build even does that? Unless you count super greedy Zergs who are not prepared for the +1 4 Zealot warp in, I'm not really sure of any builds designed to kill/prevent a third that aren't all ins.

I like that they took out Ohana. Wonder how this version of Bel'shir will play out.

Map is not bad, but the 3rd is -really- poorly designed considering today's meta.

If the mapmaker just inverted the 3rd to be a highground instead of a lowground it would help a lot. But even then it would probably be slightly tricky for P to take a 3rd. Oh well, another map where all PvZs will be 2 base all-ins. Yay. Just shows that even the most competent tournament we have is still pretty damn incompetent when it comes to maps. The tournaments really need to start listening to the community.

Well, it looks fine, but it's more of the same really. Also I agree with previous posters about Xel'naga towers. In my opinion these "things" should never appear on competitive maps.

guess gom doesnt want any toss in code S after this season

remove toss's only win map, keep the other races free win maps, and add yet another map with an impossible to take 3rd. Yay

They rented out a gigantic beach and then PvP happened. Don't blame them.

I don't think Toss can beat a zerg on this map

Edit: Hang on, does anyone see this as Daybreak, except the spawns have been swapped with bottom left to top left, and top right to bottom right? Its like the whole map has been rotated 90 degrees.

Rocks in the middle, xelnaga giving sight of the rocks, a pocket 3rd just outside the nat, a 3rd long the side, a 4th further down from the 3rd, etc etc


1. See a map for the first time
2. Making sweeping generalization

Excellent!

Map looks great and the pool is fantastic overall. I am a Z and I hate Antiga but I know it can create some interesting games -- not every map needs to favor us.


See map 1st time, Look at map, look at ramps, see multiple large access points to where protoss's 3rd can be, analyze likelihood of toss making mutiple 4 gateway walls, cross reference with the distance of the natural's minerals to the main's minerals to the likely location of the 3rd, and the distance to those mineral's, predict Muta from zerg most games vs toss, see toss scrambling to hold muta play, leaving two base timings as the stronger option, realize that toss 2 base timings have been mostly figured out, even the dreaded 2 base sentry immo push,

make sweeping generalization.

Not Daybreak. It's clearly the best map in SC2 right now and have been for a period of time, it's very balanced.

Yay, Daybreak's still in! It's been from my personal viewing experience that Daybreak has been the best map for the greatest games.

How will the write ups copy/paste paragraphs about Zerg tears against sentry/immortal all ins without Ohana?

Not playing standard is the best way to win. Zerg thirds die to skillful Protoss pushes. Not zealot warp ins though. more like immortal pushes with warp prism micro.
