Okay, I'll make the list smaller. There's a rule that if your opponent accepts it you can choose any map you want, that's probably why petric got to play Painted Desert, or the players didn't know about this rule...

I'll work on shrinking the BO5 pool now.

maybe some one just have to go and prepare a BO or train a little bit...
but there goes another problem that there are not enought competition for that
(also there is not much BO to prepare since this map has so much reclaim and big distance, guy who rush stuff will be behind on eco very fast and also air scouts are pretty OP )

best strat on painted desert would be to send guy to enemy house to ring in door bell so enemy will have to pause, and while he pauses you queue manual reclaim for 5 minutes ahead

Just look how easy Petric beat Zock and Voodoo there

Ok since this thread has caught my eye i gonna complain now.

Looking at Petric's last 2 defences, he always picks same maps: Daroza, Ditch and Painted desert. These are very non-standart maps with reclaim overload that need special practice, and seriously, people barely play them. What makes them very different from majority of maps is the massive amount of reclaim on your side that you can get advantage over your opponent without fighting for map control. These maps are kind of exceptions from the usual game mechanics and IMO they should not belong to a tourney. You can probably add Vya and Canis 4v4 to this list too but they are not as extreme as Ditch and Daroza and dont have over 100k reclaim lying around just on your side...

Also, while all that is not entirely true about Painted desert but hey - when i checked the BO5 map pool - it wasnt even there! And Petric played it for 2 rounds, lol!? (or did i miss it?)

There should be a rule about not being able to pick the same maps each week

I agree. It's a nice map with a cool feature.

I think you can delete winter duel or summer duel. One of these two maps is enough.

Added to BO5
Balvery Mountains v2
Canis 4v4
Icelands
Pyramid
Melancholy hills
Sleipnir
Balmy
Lost paradise 3
Craftious Maximus
Voi Vittu
Cauldron small
Wonder
Ozone islands

Removed from knockouts
Four-Leaf Clover

Added rules for BO5
- If both players agree it's allowed to play a map that's not in the BO5 map pool.
- When in doubt different versions of maps should be discussed with the TD.
- Complaints about a map that wasn't in the pool or something similar after the game has been played will most likely be ignored.

Why removing Winter Duel? I like that map... its small sure, but then you would have to remove all 5x5s

Not all 5x5 maps are bad, just this one I know for sure. It's a cancer map that doesn't deserve to be in the ladder map list either.

Hmmm i personally would like to see all 5km maps removed

Also imo you should remove Sentry point, the map is too absurd that you can get advantage over higher skilled player by simply using retarded BO (can find it in one of sheppard vids).

this only works if you are using a retarded BO yourself
