I would like to run analysis and add the following note.
I've long felt that this new Das Schloss map gives great advantage to the player who starts first. (especially when two skilled or knowledgeable players are playing 1v1)
To back up this claim I ran the results from round one of this tournament and found that 71% of the players who began the first round eventually won the game.
In 17 of 24 round 1 matches the first player won the match.
It will be interesting to see how this number looks in round two. My hypothesis is that it will be even LARGER! in 12 round 2 games, I suspect that 9 or 10 will be won by the player who starts! This is purely my hypothesis, it will be interesting to see how round two unfolds.
