ZvZ is total imbalance in that sense To me ZvZ has just some of the starcraft qualities, every other match up has them all. Dark archons have been seeing more use in pvp recently, the rarest units are Scouts. Sairs are really never used. | ||

Least favorite is TvT I actually enjoy watching all mirror match ups (as long as I don't have to watch a bunch of TvTs in a row) | ||

I guess those scouts you talk about are for countering carriers? If it turns out like that and the carrier-toss notices it, a few sairs are the obvious choice as they rape scouts. I've also seen sairs in pvp for hunting shuttles and scouting. Mostly on islandish maps though, which we don't see too frequently nowadays. PvP (on somewhat normal maps) is plain boring. Always the same and always so slow. TvT has some great strategic play and I like that. ZvZ imo is the best mirror because of the high pace and the sick micro. JvZ is no mirror, though! | ||

ZvZ the worst ... just because of fact that we are seeing only 2-3 units used nearly ALL THE TIME (well there are some ZvZ gems but theyre fucking insanely rare) i enjoy watching PvP with its variety of builds and cheeses , its just awesome !!!!! | ||

Hate to watch TvT, unless it has Fantasy/Flash/Leta in it. | ||

Also, PvP is not too short and repetitive or not too long and boring most of the times. Personally, I love cheeses in PvP with zealots, shield batteries, gateways cleverly hidden away etc. TvT can be epic at times, but when watching VODs, I just skip to the epic parts. TvT is sometimes just too damned slow to bring about a consistently elevated level of excitement. ZvZ is repetitive, but can be exciting when people start doing more creative builds/tactics/strategies; I remember a few months ago when all ZvZs were basically the same game with different players to me. It's still kind of repetitive right now, but recent innovation has definately made this matchup more enjoyable for me as a viewer. | ||
