Because Blizzard won't balance the zerg race, torunaments have to put something to hold the ZvZfest.

Naturals on Icarus have only 6 mineral patches, 2 of them gold. It encourages taking 2nd and 3rd bases earlier.

It seems like (except for akilon flats), every change has made taking a 3rd more difficult. Can't say I agree with those changes.

Should be fun to watch. The game has kind of stagnated into fast 3rd builds, and this could bring in some exciting old-school 2 base play.

I really like the good faith gesture from GOM to include a KeSPA map in their pool. That's awesome imo.

SC2 is imbalanced in favour of Zerg since May 2012, it's an attempt to try and stop them taking an early third into collecting all the prize money. It won't work, but at least it's something.

whirlwinds a great map and has shown some really really good games. My favorite personally even though everytime I watch that map the zergs seem to lose >>.


Heh, you must be jinxing the zergs when you watch. Because it is generally a very good zerg map.

were most likely gonna see a massive drop in winrates for zerg this season followed by eventual balancing out, then HoTS comes out and everything gets fucked

Akilon Flats

"The Xel’Naga watchtowers in the center area will lose power for the rest of the game after 7 minutes."

That is a really neat feature. I'm really pumped for the last WoL Season.

Nice to see new maps but rocks at the thirds has never really worked, will be interesting to see how zergs do this season.

And the right way. The problem arose when the map pool switched towards easily defendable 3rds. About time they fix that.

wow, that's... interesting.

On the one side, I really like the fact that the maps now require very different play styles and approaches.
On the other side, isn't PvZ with rocks on third kind of broken?
