Good point with Yarnc's MU, but i'm still unconvinced this map isn't imba for P in PvZ.

The sheer amount of micro required to break mass corsair/shuttle/reaver cheese on THIS MAP is ridiculous. Even yellow BARELY stopped Free here.
Are you kidding me? Free is the best PvZ around and Yellow's ZvP is a joke.
EDIT: Oh, you mean Jr. Well his isn't great either.
I wouldn't say it is a joke. But yeah it's his worst MU for sure.

815 is just another Zerg that can't ZvT. I don't care to see him get rape by one of the zillion terrans in the tournament.
I'd really like to see Stork win this 2-0. Going 1-1 into a game on longinus isn't exactly the best situation.
Normally I'd agree with you. More protosses is always good.
However, a few reasons why I'm supporting 815 in this one:
He's KTF He's avenging Mantoss [main reason] There are other Protosses I prefer There are so few Zergs, as well as few protosses. These maps have been killing both. 815's ZvP is not bland like Silver's.
You make good points. However, I don't see it as avenging Reach. I see continuing on and kicking ass in the OSL and Stork making use of beating my idol. Letting some Zerg punk walk over him is like a double wammy. Reach AND Stork out.
I couldn't bare that.
And yes, the Terrans have been kicking Ps and Zs asses due to these shit maps. But what can I say, I'm unable to feel empathy for Zergs.

Terran's power is that one can hardly imagine T-killing map unlike there are a lot of Z-killing and P-killing maps. PvT is balanced at a normal map. But this balance can be easily shifted to T advantage by adding some crappy cliff or neutral building and btw how many maps do you know where P > T.
