Superb map pool. You guys really stepped it up by making such intelligent modifications to the ladder maps. We're definitely going to see some epic macro games. With the greatest commentators ever we're definitely going to be entertained.

So excited for this. Thank you TL.

For anyone doubting Husky, check out his commentary with Day9 on the Pax Liquid showmatch. They work great together.

I can't wait for TSL3. Its easily gonna be the best gage of how foreigners do against top Koreans. I think we are in for some truly epic matches.

loved to see Husky in the casting crew, this shows the great recognition hes getting from the SC community. I also liked the day9/husky casting in the liquid showmatches.
So I think this will be awesome
Can't wait for this TSL!!!

Why did husky get brought to cast tsl3? and not someone else like HD or another caster? is it because hes got a larger fanbase on YT to help spread the word of TSL3?

IMO, watching tournys are supposed to fun and educating, not just 'fun'. i watched the showmatch between Tyler and Jinro but i didnt like it much. Games were good but it seemed to be dumbed down. But its just my opinion.
TBH it surprised me when i saw who was casting it.

Maybe because Husky has done more behind the SC2 scenes helping out the other casters then anybody else And because he can make an absolutely boring game a magnicient sight to behold.

Very excited about all of this. Great lineup of casters which will surely make this one of the best tournaments for Sc2 to watch, if not the best.

I'm glad to see Artosis as a guest caster as well, I think it would be pretty awesome if we could get Tastless to do some guest casting as well just because of how awesome that would be to possibly have Tastosis guest casting some of this. But regardless, any combination of the main casters is really going to be something amazing to listen to. Can't wait.

Great casters, good maps and hopefully a lot of awesome games to come!
There was once a dream that was Esports. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... Now is the time to make that dream a reality!

I'm pumped for this... but these maps are making me starting to hate the TSL......

Metal with no close positions: /highfive
Xel'Naga: Always awesome map.
Shakuras with only cross positions: ???? I suspect this might give some good games, but games where both players blind fast expand, with no fear till the 10 minute mark.

/rantmode
4 GSL maps: Ok they are possibly good maps... but FOUR of em? For anyone not in Korea, this means that you pretty much have to play Metal, Xel and Shakuras... While trying to practice for 3 other maps outside of korea... Seeing the current status of in house training outside of Korea, we might as well roll out the carpet for the korean invites.

Are any of the Blizzard maps much better? Probably not. But if I was a European or American player qualified for this tournament, I'd be sitting at home praying I invested my practice wisely.

lol no new blizz maps
But lots of GSL maps.
The pool looks awesome!
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

Awesome work TL - Husky and Day9 make a really good combo and then Chill and Wheat; why so gosu TL!?

And the map pool!? Awesome; with the modifications as well; it's awesome to see you guys taking some initiative to try ensure the better players wins.. The GSL maps provided some epic games which can hopefully be recreated in this TSL

We all appreciate Artosis's effort

Have to agree with this one.
I would rather prefer Shattered Temple + ICCup Testbug instead of Crevasse and Terminus RE.

So pretty much the MLG pool. (I like Scrap Games as well)

I also think that all the map modifications will be favoring Zerg too much. In addition to the recent buffs for zerg we have the larger GSL maps (good for zerg) plus no close spawns and no wallin bottom of ramp. That is too much rebalancing at the same time.
LosirA won Code A, zergs owned at Assembly + IEM. TSL could be an even bigger zerg ownage.
