Ok, I have an announcement to make. There were a couple oversights on my part in the pool, and I might make a change or too. I just want EVERYONE to know this. Please check back before the next 12 hours to see if I have changed any maps. We definitely did not do enough checking on some things, I want to apologize to everyone.

Babylon is not correctly timed as of right now and I probably won't have time to update it this week. I'll see what I can do though but as per my suggestion when I linked the map before, I don't think it should be in the map pool in its current state.

Alright, hello everyone. I have made the following changes to the pool.

NM -
Pavor Nocturnus is taken out. I have replaced it with Pochiko no Shiawase na Nichijou, Soba's Oni because, truthfully, I have just found Pavor too hard of a pick to really feel good about. It falls somewhere between too difficult and too easy. Pochiko is a crowd-pleaser type song with some cool streams and featuring another mapper who has never been in TWC, sobatsuyuu100!

HR -
I am replacing ende with another similar map by Lost the Lights called Bumblefuck. it is similarly fast, but we have got him to create us a TWC version with a slower SV as to replace ende.

We have removed Babylon since it seems Tasha wont be able to do it in time, and also because it was another half-hearted quick-pick, a result of not deciding properly. I have replaced it with a similar map, IVALTEK by pheon. It has a high-ish bpm, but some tricky weird patterns much like babylon. This should be a very manageable but tricky and fun map.

DT -
Dadadada is too much of a risky pick. The 1/3's at the end make it so hard to justify this pick. I did insist before that we shouldn't use it but some of my staff said go ahead. I have taken the liberty of changing this with a high bpm pick by aabc. The map is called Yeah! Break! Care! Break!. There are some tricky double patterns and this is also a map we are lacking with longer maps in DT. This will also be another crowd-pleaser song, as i'm sure you all like Dragon Ball!

TB -
Well, this one personally is sad, but it had to be done. Road of Resistance is being taken out for a couple reasons. 1. Length, it's just too long and tiring. 2. The difficulty is spikey, it does not remain consistent and I figure this can be very annoying.
Instead, I am replacing it with the map originally intended to be in this spot, Against the Dragon Flames by Kagami Yuki. This is the first t+pazolite song to appear in the pools surprisingly. It is fast but also a great HD pick. Tricky on HR but not impossible!

So that concludes the pick changes. I want to deeply apologize first of all for the inconvenience. We will provide a map pack later with the fixed difficulties.

If your map was removed, no hard feelings. We all make mistakes, and surely this wont be the last for us (not the first either...) but we'll learn so much from it. Thank you.

Maps you need -
Pochiko no Shiawase na Nichijou, Soba's Oni NM
Bumblefuck HR
IVALTEK HR
Yeah! Break! Care! Break! DT
Against the Dragon Flames TB

Map Pack Coming Soon!

Yes I know not all the games have been posted, this will give you all something to look forward to for now however. Fancy Design coming soon.

Some fun facts!

First appearance of Firce so far, but also the mapper who grabbed 2 spots in this pool. I think this should be very exciting to some of you!
First appearances of many, many mappers in any twc - R e i r i, ll-oscar, tasuke912, -S o r a- and DarkVortex.
Tie-breakers are balanced towards 1 hd (Snow Drive), 1 hr (Oriorioriori) and 1 nm (Little Batty Foo Foo). Although you don't need to use those mods, I think they work well on each map. This should be a very interesting tie-breaker, if anyone makes it to that point, and i'm very excited to see it.
This pool was almost entirely worked around the inclusion of the firce tie-breaker, as we wanted his inclusion to be a very cool thing for everyone to see, since he does not typically show up in these much :)
And one last thing, if some of these maps seem too hard well, i'll have to say, be prepared for Grand Finals after this.
It will only get much harder.

Have fun everyone! :)

Congratulations everyone !

TSUBAKI HR again? Didn't we learn from TWC?
Nwolf
in TWC5 it was bannable and also considered as too hard, it still got picked once.


Grand Finals now is harder. and we would've picked End of the World instead but I was against that

That fun fact is in fact, not fun.

So, See You Never is a collab between me and Firce. He is crazy. Dat 1/6 though
First time mlien and Kriston have shown up in any TWCs
Live Wire is slightly shorter than most of the tiebreakers we have been using because...I couldnt find anything longer :)
There was a sand and firce map originally used but have been replaced because they were making the pool extremely hard. Hopefully these arent too hard
And the last thing, this is easily the hardest finals pool of any TWC. Hopefully we dont get yelled at :D

Have fun guys!
abrian
Just an opinion, but I find the TBs slighty too easy compare to the difficulty in general
And the imbalance difficulty between the HRs and HDs really grinds my gear ;w;
but overall great mappool, although UK team is out and I will miss the party :<

Taiwan A comes in at first place, France second and Japan A in third.

Prizes will be delivered soon. Maybe there will be badges for 2nd and 3rd place, i'm not quite sure. I'm going to contact tournament staff as soon as possible.

Sorry for a lot of things, however, and really I must apologize.

The stream this time again was not up to par. We had many times with no streamer. I was not able to do player interviews, GF Ceremony or ANYTHING. Really this breaks my heart, and I want to apologize.

Also, the pictures of the maps, I was really hoping this also would continue to get done, but staff leaves me in a barren situation and nothing happens.

Truthfully I should have made sure all of this wouldn't happen, but I tried. I'm sorry.

I hope everyone had fun though, and will continue to support me in future tournaments.
