But Frost/Yeonsu on ladder will be great. :D you have to note pro vote is not that far away from public vote! consider what many posters already offered as a reason: why vote for something that "might" be off the usual path when you can vote for something considerable interesting enough? also you are totally biased (: towards "design", e.g. maps with very specific features that challenge the meta-game (and might break it for some matchups) as well as maps that are based on decisions which first and foremost are interesting from the producer standpoint. Some design decisions just cannot be appreciated really, example - I can only speak for my map (Strangewood) - what pro player would want a map where the game plan would depend on the spawn? How do you not auto-veto a map where it depends on chance if you get a macro or an aggressive early game? Biggest difference between Frost and Strangewood? Frost offers fairly similar distances whereas Strangewood creates bigger devations. How does Frost do this? Far away outside path and one linear connection through the middle no matter where you spawn. Totally not a fan of such an element where you cut options for the sake of linearity. It still is the best map here and it is based on some very good design decisions. In the end such competitions highlight only few maps out of many very good maps (there are some very good maps most have never heard of and which just did not finish top9 and will be gone forever), i guess i am happy about 6th place. in my opinion the winning maps represent the smartest design choices overall (monk:"baby steps") I will learn from this experience and will tend to pick the safer options next time =D | ||

That's why in Korea they just say fuck it and put out Gwandelli Beach and Anaconda without asking anyone in the public and in TLMC (like this) we will only ever erase any possibility for non-standard and innovative maps to go anywhere. Truly sad about the results and not looking forward to TLMC 3 now. P.S.: My rant isn't about Frost which is a deserved winner, congrats Semmmo for making the first good 4p mirrored map in SC2!! | ||

I guess one of those is meant to say "their opponents spawn positions" looking forward to seeing more of Frost | ||
