Satellite Tournament #1 for CIS 2017, Volgograd.

Again, what is the goal of the tournament? To attract the maximum number of participants so that the tournament actually takes place, or to please the old-school players?

Just three maps are not enough for a full-fledged tournament:

Honestly, I was going to suggest only one DesertWar map, but I feel like I would be bombarded with criticism. :smile03:
I'm just thinking from the perspective of a newbie random player who suddenly wants to jump into the competitive scene. If there's only one map, it's okay, I'll study it, play a few games, and I'll be ready. If there's a pool of three simple maps, it's okay, I'll take a look, I'll think about it. If there's a pool of more than 5 complex maps, like LoM and others, which all need to be studied (and preferably practiced), and then pay money and play against Horn or Expert - no thanks. Hence the logic behind the map selection. I am convinced that the strategy of "looking at a map in the editor for an hour and then playing" in 2017 does not work for competitive play.
