Ten Bucks says Scrap Station doesnt make the cut, yea GSL players are def gunna have an even bigger adv than they already do by playing on the maps that they are already mass gaming on :/ oh well I guess a foreigner could still win this but it seems like the deck is stacked against them. I liked it better when it was a foreigner only tournament.

Seriously guys...stop complaining for once, Scrap is a common 4th map to pick (it would been have that versus maybe LT at best). This way it's a nice split 50/50 split of maps people have PRACTICED on, and maps they can start to really practice for.

Also, to the remote idea of disabling close spawns on Metal is pretty stupid imo, we already have basically 7 maps with no real rush times (Crossfire is possible), if close spawns were disabled you are essentially saying let's have absolutely no risk in the first few minutes. It's good we don't have 5-6 maps were you can get 2rax'd into oblivion, but the risk should always be there.

ICCup Pawn Re is a very coll map as well would love to see it or some other ICCup maps in TSL they are all pretty balanced and i think even better than some GSL maps for example Terminus Re or Crossfire Se

Show some iCCup love pls. I understand Nazgul's concern but with players from across the globe, some fairness should be given to EU players who are already practicing on testbug/pawn re.

I have to agree, Testbug seems like such a good map.

At least is should be considered.

Others are good as well.

Agreed, I would 100% have expected Testbug instead of Scrap Station. I feel like the perception of SS being reasonably popular is only because players would rather be there than on, Jungle Basin or Steppes.

A three player map would be an awesome dynamic to the rest of the pool as well :/
