If it has to do with luck of the drop, then I am very luck on this map... I like the map a lot, even with a bad drop, it is still possible to regain control with strategy...

Every map you play, you can get a horrible drop. That doesn't make the map bad IMO :)

I am very glad you got rid(read fixed) of the +3 regardless of terits. But this is basicly a 1vs1 who starts wins, unless dice killed him. if you dont believe me, maybe i should do a strategy guide on it.



Pretty spot on here. I will not be playing this map again. Sorry I just cannot stand the luck on it as it goes with the drop.


Edited to add. Thanks MrBenn for the effort on short notice.

Thanks Bruce ;-)

As for those who complain about 1v1s an this (or any other) map, I'd recommend trying some games with more people... I've found the 6-player games I've played on it far more enjoyable, even if equally as tense as the actual World Cup at times!

Ahh but just so happens the tournament was a 1 vs 1... I did not win a single game. In fact I opened 3 of 4 games and had 0 chance from round 1 when I went 2nd. Yeah sure dice happen, but the setup is made to favor first player. Maybe I will try a 6 player on it. Thanks for the effort.

I must respond again. After playing the map some more times, I must retract this statement. The map is surely a different style, but plays nicely when more than 2 players are on it. Well done!

Quarter- and Semi-finalists are far undervalued for 5 and 7 neutrals, respectively.

Closing a map only prevents the creation of new games. It should not affect games already underway. But if we haven't got the final games of the tournaments started, then there may be a problem, unless the tournament organizers have some special privileges for starting games.
