best mappack of 3 rounds <3<3Ehhh... the balance in this map list is pretty far stretched. I think this is the worst map list because of it.
A map like 'Furries in a Blender - Ridorii' shouldn't be in the same list with a map like 'Pendulum - The Vulture'.
One being pretty hard, the other being quite easy ):

the "balance" was exactly created like this because people kept complaining about a single type of map being chosen for the owc.GladiOol wrote:

Technically, whatever the map pool is, it is the same for every country so there should be no discussion of "balance" in the first place.
That being said, if a map pool consists of only easy maps or only hard maps, it is likely to benefit the weaker countries and the stronger countries respectively. If a map pool consists of stream maps only, it will favor some countries over others. Same thing happens if a map pool consists of jump maps only. Other categories might be high/low AR, high/low HP drain, etc. An ideal map pool should include maps of every category: hard/easy, streamy/jumpy, and so on.
Looking at this week's map pool, I see that it is a bit on the difficult/streamy side. However, there are maps included to ensure that not every map in the pool is harder than the average ranked map, so I think we will be fine.

Yes, and you should find a good balance between jump, stream, low AR, high AR etc. maps.
That hasn't been done here. :/
Sure, Reunion and that furrie map thingy fit together real well. One is jumpy, other is streamy. Both of about the same difficulty.
But if you look at Vulture, it's way easier compared to those 2. And no, you shouldn't look at ''less pro'' countries. Everybody should play at the same level. Either make the maps easier, or consistent with the harder ones.

Please remove those EXTREMELY easy maps from the maplist, the picks are great but having those insanely easy maps there makes it look bad (don't see anyone picking them though but whatever).
If a country is pro enough to FC hard maps, why can't they do better at easy maps than the weaker countries? It's not like everybody is going to SS the maps on the damn cup.
K please stop spamming now

2. Congrats Finland, ragelewa pro.

The balance between stream/jump is something we staffs already pay attention on from the first round, about the difficulty level it's mostly judged by personal feelings. You said The Vulture is too easy then ok, let's guess the FC rate on that map?
Maybe you still can't agree with me about the "balance" i want, then:

And no, you shouldn't look at ''less pro'' countries. Everybody should play at the same level.This is a World Cup for 32 contries, not something only Japan/Korea could play. Or let's say, when you're facing the Japan team i'll pick a map list full of stupid hard apps and you could play at the same level?

I liked the map choices so far, especially the ones for the 2nd round
also congrats to finland, thank you for leaving us out of the owc

If you want to have your "fun", then please take it elsewhere (preferably away from osu!).

It's not "fun" for the people trying to actually read the thread when there's a full page of spam, insults, and nonsense.
Well you can have that or everyone complaining about random stuff, it's up to you guys first thing is actually fun, discussing ends up in flames. :s
I mean this thread is pretty much crap there is nothing important here except people reporting time tables or matches, and since everyone has played by now and stuff you don't really bother anyone by having one or two pages full of shit but w/e.

ok. so not everyone agrees with the mappool? I think we should complain less. look at the progress in organising a event like this on osu! last time was rly crappy, now, you guys are doing a awesome, mayB that is because a certain person (cheater) isnt here anymore:)
hard maps or easy maps, they are still osu maps. owc is not like ranking, you play whatever the mappickers say you play!
gj guys gg no re

France vs Portugal has been postponed to 11th, 18h00 (GMT+0).

About map choices, during the last TWC there was also some huge diffspread between beatmaps in the same list (still most of the maps were easily fcable during group phase)...but i don't remember there were lots of complains.
Couldn't it be considered:
Harder maps = highest combo
Easier maps = best acc
...and also don't forget randommisses

3 of team miss 200 on one map, FC rate = 25%
????
Anyway, all I'm saying is that the maps should be balanced in difficulty. It totally isn't now. I have 3 years and 4 months playing, modding and mapping experience. I guess I can tell when stuff isn't balanced out, like now. So please don't come up with a bullshit story like ''personal preference''. I'm just saying you should be more careful about balance next round, but I guess I may not say that because then you will put up hard maps when we face Japan. OK BRO, I TOTALLY GET UR LOGIC.
And indeed, you shouldn't look at the countries playing like you are doing now. You should make the best possible fucking map pool for that round. You should never, ever, fucking dever look at the countries still involved. If it were for me, I'd remove those ''harder'' maps, because it's way too early to be adding those in. It's only group stage...
But I guess balance is something which is silly for me to say, maps should be ranged from loleasy to WTFBBQINSANE next round. This way everybody will be pleased aparently.

OK BRO, I TOTALLY GET UR LOGIC.Obviously you don't, you're shouting "balance" all the time, but hey, let's definate the word balance. In your opinion it means all maps in the list should be at the similar level, but what i call "balance" is there's a range between maps, 2~3 easier and 2~3 harder, with an average level fits most of the country. Yes, i'm trying to please everyone, it's hard, it's a world cup, damn.

Too Hard? none of the map has >10% fail rate except for the Extra (and Leia in Round 1), where's the hard plz?
But I guess balance is something which is silly for me to say, maps should be ranged from loleasy to WTFBBQINSANE next round. This way everybody will be pleased aparently.That's just the way it works now. You could play hard maps as you wish when it gets to elimination or even final, good luck.
You think it works, I think it doesn't and that it's horrible.
Also, with the first part I meant the fact that ''FC-rate'' is just retarded, as a team can get 25% FC-rate on both maps while screwing up one way more than the other. Doesn't mean they are of equal ''hardness''.
Also, I don't shout ''balance'' every time? I only did now you dipstick twat.
And yes, I see balance as all maps being of about the same level each round, making it fair.
Dropping in easier and harder maps in the same map pool is just tedious.
Also, if you really try to please everybody, make a consistent/balanced map pool. That's all I'm saying.
But apparently that means shouting out BALANCE LOL BLANACE KLGLRLL every time.
Well, fine, but I'll be back next pool if that shit won't be balanced out as well. I've been silent about the first 2, thinking it would all be better as I had faith in a better map pool opposing to last year, but I guess not.

Edit: I don't see the point of getting 14 similar level maps together, seems you do, maybe some others do, and what you're saying is you're pretty sure all the guys like the "consistent" set, prove it?
I thought it was quite the common sense to want a balanced map pool. I guess not according to you?
But I'm too lazy to ask around, besides, that's your task. I'm just here to tell you your map pool isn't balanced.

When we're talking about a opinion based something, it's quite logic it's ''in my opinion'' ?¿?¿?¿?¿? I GUESS NOT AGAIN \:D/
And what? I never want to ''poot'' anybody? When did I say that? Besides, what I've said is remove the harder maps. It's way too early in stage to be adding those in. I'm actually in favor of the weaker countries. I don't want to ''poot'' ???? anybody. The fuck.

Hello there guys, I've followed the discussions and rants (and spam) here. We understand that people might not be satisfied with the choices we are making, but starting arguments about every single map in the pools is runining the fun to everyone else. The spread might not be the optimum every round, but as some people mentioned already: the better team will win regardless of the conditions. Having dislikes for some specific maps in general is another question, though.
Also there are quite a lot spam posts (by usually the same few people) that keep pushing down the quality level of this thread to a point, where this can barely be considered an official tournament anymore. It might be true that this is just a game, but people are spending efforts into organizing this, so showing some respect would be appreciated. If you don't like this event, you are welcome to leave and at least let others have fun.
Good Luck on round 3 everyone!

i agree with gladi, i'm not a good player and i think that making maps that everyone can play it's more balanced than this, 2nd mapset was great and this one not so much, for example if u put let's say japan or korea against a small country then they could pick two really hard maps of the "balanced mapset" and get 2 free wins.
on the other hand the maps of the previous mapset had maps on the exact difficulty level imo (atleast i'd put those kind of maps on the group stage) and every team could play them and fc them.

oh then i don't know why do we even play this, let's just give wo wins to the top teams.

You are misunderstanding this statement. We don't know the best team yet, but whoever this might be should be able to win on any map.
I think we need to stop debate about maplist. The choice is made, we will wait for the next round
