Graphics by: A Stand Up Guy Welcome to the group stage of the broodwarmaps.net open! We decided to go with a different format than originally planned to accommodate all 40 players that checked in. There are 5 groups of 8 players each (randomly drawn) in a double elimination bracket with the top 3 from each group advancing to the playoffs. There will also be a wildcard spot for the 16th player.

The map pack includes a melee, observer, and training version. The melee version will be the one used for matches. The training versions allow you to set your spawning location to practice wall-offs and familiarize yourself with the maps.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/DzJnH.png) Birdie will be casting when available. We are looking at getting more casters at this moment. If you're interested, shoot me a pm. The round of 16 onwards will be casted for sure. Casts will be done from replays and there is no set casting date or time right now.
L_master, radley, and nina will also cast some games.

| Hmm Group D has the most good players, but Group B has the best two players in the tour (at least in my opinion) soo. I mean both are kind of groups of death. |

I dunno, but in a way it shouldn't be I mean IF I were setting up the brackets I would set it up so that each group has good enough race distribution to see all match ups on the maps. I mean if you know the players you know which ones will most likely advance so you can set it up so you see MU and while doing so imbalances could be revealed in practice or in actual matches.
I also suggest that the players that get to the latter stages fill out a survey / or at least leave feedback about the maps after the tournament is over. (Unless the mapmakers are really really optimistic about their maps) |

| Of course people should be let known that it isn't random (If it isn't!) and that this tournament is centered around getting these maps out and refined. |

The interesting thing about Group A is that IT'S STACKED AS HELL with up and coming players, but they just aren't there yet.
I think Group A will be very interesting to watch more so that a couple of other groups because the those players can really shine and show how much they have improved recently.
I'm really expected a lot from the people from Group A in the future, but as I said they have some work ahead of them! |

The mapmakers of BWMN would appreciate any feedback. We are confident that these are balanced playable maps (having selected them from a wide pool of our maps), but i myself would appreciate any feedback to my map Cross Game. Not speaking for be community of BWMN, but I would think they would agree |

Have you tried to just wall at the choke in DeserTec? All the chokes are pretty tight.
For Melting Pot, take a look at the building map.

I don't want to wall the choke though, and you have to place an early creep colony to get creep up to the choke if I recall correctly anyway. |
