Huh? I merely implied that games on these maps are generally good.

I'll have to object to this statement, if you don't mind. True, his stats aren't that amazing, but he has won a MSL. So, in every game, from the moment that he builds his first barracks, he has the potential to spring into action and take out his opponent in a flash. He's the perfect man to pull an unexpected upset versus a team ace - for him victory is never out of reach.

Holy Check! The games are this weekend! Unless Movie & Skyhigh have something special planned, I'm not too enthusiastic about the current line-up. Then again, KT isn't looking too hot either. All things considered, Movie should have a good chance against Flash.

I just realised how many players on KT have ID that actually makes sense, haha.
None of those maps looks terribly T-favoured though, actually i don't think there's any map this season that's difficult to PvT on. Maybe Sniper's Ridge a litle but that's it.. Though it's true that we don't see good games on Outlier or Chain Reaction as often.

@ Emon_
I don't think there are many with "good" chance against Flash at the moment. :3 And Movie surely ain't one of them.

obvious picks actually..

How long did it take you to come up with that?

Should be interesting, come on KT, don't force Flash to carry everything all by himself

So long as KT is playing, the other team will always choose Outlier or Chain Reaction.

I think KT will win 2-0. CJ seems weak when it comes to big games. In contrast KT looks strong when it matters the most. Hydra can't handle the fact that Effort is back, Horang only knows how to PvP, Effort still loses against the strong players (Flash, Bisu, Stats,...). Leta has to hold is form and Snow has to start to fulfill the expectations. All in one: CJ needs really good matchup's, otherwise KT wins each match 4-1.
|
This is stupid, the same match for Ace twice, at least make it so that the team with 2 choices can't pick the same Ace map for both matches.

What about Mind? mind is trash LOL I would not say trash, but rather inconsistent. He was doing fairly well when Bacchus OSL was rolling around. I believe he reached the MSL quarterfinals as well where he lost to Hydra 3-1.
Also, his TvT is the matchup to me that looks like it is suffering the most. His TvZ and TvP are rather untested at the moment, in which is TvP looks pretty hot according to recent stats.

I like CJ's chances. If Snow and Movie don't get mis-matched, I have confidence in the likes of Leta and Horang2 to carry the team with the help of Effor and Hydra.
But I'll give anything for a SkyHigh renaissance during the playoffs.

This for sure especially considering that Stats has done pretty good in PVP this season although he lost pvp twice to CJ I think so maybe they'll prepare horang2 for the second ace match

Sniper Ridge for Ace Match every match would have been awesome =) Fair and Awesome map!

Mm well, Jade has an easy 3rd gas too, and teams have for the most part avoided sending zerg on it unless looking for zvt (like I assume action vs. fbh was), which to me seems like the pro-teams think Jade is worse.
I'm not sure KT will be fielding Barracks, his results are pretty mediocre and he's only beaten terrible terrans this season, and KT doesn't need him to bolster their depth the way Stars fields hon_sin. Mind/Wooki/CH are all a lot better.

do you guys feel that each map almost dictates what matchup will be played on it? Especially recently, in the last season?
i mean i guess KT playing flash in the ace is not really surprising
