No, but as i said before, that sounds pretty random if only the map is known I can assure you that it is not. also it puts a big dent on any matchfixing operation.
Sure it stops matchfixing somewhat, but on the other hand players won't be able to prepare really specific strats.
Maybe it doesn't really matter that much, but as of right now i would rather see bo7 than double blind picks.
Completely new and crazy maps maybe even the most important part for me atm

well there were things like map snipers who's job was to prepare strats specifically for a map. The most extreme case of this was a phenomenon called, Neo  Brave Reaction.
+ Show Spoiler +![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/tmnh8Xv.png) he literally played just one map the entire season, other than outlier which happens to be the outlier(puns!)
meaning that even the random non first string players get a chance as snipers.

Well sure, but that would be somewhat possible now too.
With the exception of the other team KNOWING for sure.
I think this is a good thing because it allows for more specific preparation.
All of this is only really important when we have interesting maps though i guess, so who knows.

Anyone who watched Bo7 BW proleague knows there is nothing negative about blind lineups format.

But.. but it is bad for FPL right?

it wasn't that hard, maybe like the first 2 weeks of the first round.

Funnily enough, even the people who watched only SC2 Proleague have now watched 3 seasons and are fully entitled to being skeptical about or disliking the idea of blind lineups. People that watched chiefly BW may remember double blind fondly, but not everyone. I prefer the current format.

I mean i think it actually isn't THAT important. I am sure we would get nice matches either way.
Bo7 though... pls make it happen!

My favorite seasons of BW proleague were the seasons when they revealed lineups beforehand. Stupid matchfixing scandal...

Ah this makes me so happy!

I hope the announcement comes out soon. I'm getting a little anxious here.
