I will post the map pool. Genocide, if you decide that it's biased, let me know and I'll get a neutral third party to get a map pool. Otherwise..

First game will be played on Wetlands. Map Pool: Wetlands, Terenas Stand, Phantom Grove, Scorched Basin.

Who will win it? Who's the favorite? Post your remarks and comments here!

Thats like the worst map pool ever. Wetlands is so imbalanced for NE, TT. Hm i dont know who will win out of grog or GA. Ive played them both but micro/macro wise i think GA might have a advantage.

May I suggest a method of determining a map pool that would be less arbitrary and more beneficial to both players? We are all familiar with the "thumbs down" method of working ladder maps, and I suggest that as the new format. Take turns "thumbs downing" maps until there are four remaining. It would seem the only way for someone to truly get a "fair" representation of maps in terms of preference.

Additionally, I do not recommend that any particular player post their maps ahead of time, because the two lists could share common maps. The person that posts second will have the advantage of "thumbs downing" other maps instead of the maps they would have previously chosen. Thus, I will bring my list of maps to our game, and I suggest you do the same.

To bad grog wouldnt let me obs because he didnt want to hear my "post game shit" and wanted "no lag" because i really did want to see him get humiliated.

And wow, did you ever just prove him right.

I watched the NE vs UD game. GA, you did not win that match - your DH did. :rolleyes: :P You complain about people who harass with him the entire game, and use mana burn when the enemy has only a small amount of mana. But that's precisely what you did - and you mana burned an enemy priest 4 mana!! ;)

Well done, though. Nice micro.

And so, in short, you're saying that what I complain about as a frequent and common problem isn't valid because I do the same. Similarly, if I thought the Beastmaster was overpowered, then he wouldn't be overpowered if I picked him.

It seems to me that any instance in which I can successfully illustrate my point, regardless of whether or not I'm the player, should be a valid context. But I guess your superior vague accusation trumps my feeble logic, again.
