sponsored match doesn't mean shit though
it s like friendly match in soccer


yes, because they aren't trying when money is on the line right? its only asl that matters right? twice a year, and btw for much less money than daily proleagues

sponmatches is what a lot of these players care about, even more than ASL. this is how they make their money on a daily basis.

Bisu just destroyed Soma in sponsored match.

Imbalance my ass.

What is really concerning are same old faces in every ASL and every proleague.

Even Soma is 31.




Bisu just destroy almost everyone when he almost only played ums called maple defense on some point. I mean he is one of the best rts player for me but still i would think twice if I were in the shoes of those who say zerg imba. So this is just further proof that they don't have much sense :D + complemented by players age = so funny what is imba and what is not.

Oh, I think this argument that Protoss is uniquely disfavored, especially against Zerg, has completely shown their ass in this thread. All we had to do was give them enough rope to hang themselves by talking about their position, after they spent months dodging talking about it.

The best they were able to come up with why they believe it is because they 1). They expect equal representation from all races in tournament championships, because individual skill doesn't matter and 2). They shift the goal posts constantly, now, they're claiming race imbalance is something else. Then there's a huge gap and you get to some amalgamation of magical thinking where it's both clear and present, and yet invisible and no evidence exists or could exist. No evidence, no games to talk about, no arguments, nothing. One can only hope that this puts this nonsense to bed for a while but for that to happen, they'd have to be reasonable people.

Yes, the game is balanced and that is of utter import to watching it, let alone playing it. The balance is probably the only thing keeping SCBW going after 25 years.
