Well Blizzard's 'generous' donations of a souvenir and a headset/keyboard/mouse hardly encourage the best of the best. Despite, that I like the look of all the winners. Hopefully they get some play at pro-level before the theorycrafters trash them too much. | ||

my vote was for kamala, mainly because is not that free the 3rd. still i have a problem that maps tend to bring 16 bases (with 8 patches) and make too long games. distances are so long, that most players don't care about to send a worker to explore, and then get blind countered by build orders. tournament organizers actually are heavy focused in a bo3/5/7 format, with group stages of double elimination that trend to make long sessions (ro 32/16 in wcs) and those maps bring longer games, than overall makes me bored. I mostly disappointed with the trend of huge maps + free expos, every contest bring bigger maps than the previous session. | ||

This may be the case here: Biome has opportunity to proof itself, but if it will fail both 2nd and 3rd map look like good and very solid addition. | ||

With most of them, probably not. They're far too standard. I don't see a reason to use CJ Biome over New Pompeii for instance, which is a more interesting map with the same 5 spawn idea. The TLMCs flagrant dismissal of "gimmicks" is also a turnoff. SHOUTcraft isn't interested in running a tournament with ladder maps, everyone else does that and frankly there's nothing wrong with a "gimmick" or two to liven things up. | ||

Why don't you host a contest then? :o | ||
