Thats a cool story bro , what if i want to get better at T to switch to it in the future? Or im just simply finding one MU boring .. i could play that but if i can choose - why not ? its for fun
And i didnt bring this subject to ask for everyone's opinion - just to get information what to do when it happens - cause there can be also 2 Terrans meeting each other with PvT instaed of TvT - then one of them has to give up on his main - so the other has big advantage , some rules should be make for that imo


If you want to switch to T, then why not play every matchup as just T instead of playing with PvT or what have you. Finding a matchup boring is sort of weird, TvT is considered boring but I still enjoy it, and so do many others actually, that I've asked about.

It's one thing to not WANNA play it, but to solely get the natural advantage a matchup poses is sort of in lines with not really playing by moral rights, but I guess since we're all playing for fun, let's just try that all out the window, eh?

Oh, and before you talk about how I'm aiming to make the league for serious gamers and all, I'm not, but even for those who like to play in leagues to have the feel of playing for a reason/team, isn't the common goal to get better? So why hinder yourself and not play in a way that'll probably be more beneficial than anything? Not saying people should be banned for race picking with different matchups, or that they're bad people, I'm just saying it's not exactly good on them to do it, but if you want, more power to you.

I was under the impression that ultimately race picking is unwise, at least for TOP level, as eventually the difficulties of coordinating the different mechanics and play styles of different races catches up to you.

Ehmm in the situation i tried to show , lets say both Terrans prefers TvP over PvT (they are much better in that MU) - so one has to give up his main race - and in my situation theres no possible MU unless somoene agrees to play different one - my point is there should be some rules made before situation like that happens cause it might.

If its too complicated you can sign me as P , i dont mind

edit' Yes Sync it would be more beneficial if i played one race, it would also be much more beneficial if i practised 12 hours/day with koreans , but im not playing that game to get to some sickt lvl, to win i dunno whos top now - Killer? , just simply cause i enjoy it .
And i also enjoy TvT much more than PvT so if theres a possibility to play it - why not?

Haha, well, with that attitude of wanting to get better, good luck with that. And just a heads up, my opinion wasn't directed at you originally, it was directed to Pebble, but I guess you fell under the same situation as him in terms of race picking with different matchups.

Well, maybe ure too good for this league?
Why dont u try , play more than 10 games a season and see if u can hit better rank than D+ im pretty sure u can hit C- and theres C rank league where u can benefit much more , no need to stuck with bad players with no ambition as i

There is a reason why i play those specific matchups. I don t see how playing specific MU like mine gives an advantage. Hardly can see how your post is related to me. And even if, I find it not only "morally correct" but even logical. Is one supposed to play MU that put him in disadvantage?

George the man raises a good point. I never though about that, and there should be a rule. In the case of me vs Geroge the man, it doesn t matter what MU we play cause i can t win T_T . But there should be a rule anyway.
