What moron includes a map in his tourney which has a significant advantage for one faction over another? Why would a map with a significant advantage live long in the map pool?

I feel like this is a non-issue, since the inclusion of mirror matches is something you can get over if you don't like it, and the removal of mirror matches has a very minor effect on competitive gameplay.

The worst case scenario I can envision is a tourney where two players who are best at Axis and favor Axis are facing off, since one of them has an advantage in a given round. My reaction is that it's a competitive game; the best player is the player who does anything (legal) to win. So our definition of better player must be revised to include those players who master every faction, not just one; a player who's good at both is, on an absolute scale, better than a player who masters just one.

From what I've seen they said they would try to have all the commanders balanced, so if you didn't have one, you will not at a huge disadvantage.

Check out the video's that HelpingHans did at London, they talk about commanders specifically in there among other things.
