Team Liquid Map Contest 12 - The Tournament

Text byTL.net ESPORTS

February 4th, 2019 17:32 GMT
We've now received the last entry for the 12th edition of the Team Liquid Map Contest and it’s time to reveal some details about the traditional TLMC tournament. We've invited some of the best players around to play the top 16 maps from the competition, as chosen by our judges. And just as in the last three years, we’re happy to announce that Wardi will be arranging this tournament in cooperation with Blizzard.

The tournament will commence shortly after the judging phase of the competition is complete, 11th to the 17th of February, and you can follow all the action on Wardi’s Twitch channel. The maps will be announced the weekend leading up to the tournament.


Players
For the player announcements, we want to do something special this time around. So over the next few days, we’ll announce a few players each day on our Twitter account until all 20 have been revealed. We’re well aware that not everyone uses Twitter, so don’t worry: we’ll also update this thread as the announcements are being made.

However, we're happy to start off the announcement spree right away. The first two players willing to be our guinea pigs are no other than Rickard "SortOf" Bergman and Jang "MC" Min Chul. Both are storied players with long careers, and we're super excited to have them on board.

Hope this one turns into a ridiculous cheese-fest, because those are the kinds of TLMCs I've enjoyed the most ;o

If we can be brought back to the days of MC playing on one of your maps, I guess things aren't so bad these days :D

A large amount of the pre-judging feedback revolved around avoiding cannon rushing spots (probably New Repugnancy PTSD), so the judges are doing their best to deny you your wish (Likely unsuccessfully. Pros would probably cheese on the new maps even if they were sixteen clones of Dusk Towers).

The lineup is pretty strong this time. I just hope that someone will be there to translate the comments the pros have about the maps.

Epic so far! I second the concern about translating comments about the maps (if they have any to share). Seeing high level gameplay is important of course, but the majority of map makers that enter TLMC are english speaking and miss out on that important aspect of feedback
