I do really like match point though. I played a 30 minute game against a friend and its going to make for some really good matches I think. Thanks for all the updates. | ||

What, with Outsider and HBR? I actually think HBR is zerg favored, but not imbalanced (It's like 45% for PvZ). Yes, it's P>T, but not to the same extent as it is Z>T Z>P. Outsider still isn't really determined for its balance, but I haven't seen Bisu whine about it yet, and I'm guessing they made the double gas expo more difficult or impossible to take. It's just such a strange map that I don't think any of the best builds for it have been figured out for any matchup. I'm glad desti is gone. Map was feeling really dated. Basically Moon Glaive is the only one that looks like it will be a toss graveyard. However, the map tests/lineup tests had it being strangely P favored. From watching Best v Yarnc it seems like it is just because Z haven't dealt with 1 base P for a while, so I'm expecting it to fully favor Z in PL. Tornado seems like it will be Z>>P, P=T and T>Z. HBR is another map that's not great for P. The other 3 look to be good for at least 1 toss matchup. I feel bad for people who put 3 P on their FPL anti-teams. | ||

Hmm no roadrunner either, oh well. Maybe less mech from now on! Pretty pleased with the maps selected. I like all of them although I find match point quite strange and don't like the tileset, but it's okay. Moon Glaive is just beautiful, and Silver Wing seems like a really nice, standard map. Tornado is my least favorite of these maps. It's quite ugly and just seems very boring. | ||

I'm glad Moon Glaive is in though. Still, there weren't many other 3 player maps to choose from, and we've seen plenty of Medusa. Thinking about 3 player maps makes me think of Plasma. Now I'm sad again. | ||

Outsider Z (unless they made some serious changes) Heartbreak Ridge P Moon Glaive T Match Point T Silver Wing and Tornado might be ok in terms of non mirrors. | ||
