It's great being in a teamfight and seeing everyone start moonwalking for about 10-15 seconds before the game lets you know you've been disc'd. Nah, northeast US. USW works fine fo rme | ||

PROTOS OP FOR LIFE, SON! Yeah, after 4 years of "remove forcefields, redesign warpgate, fix Amove deathball" I had to not go to TL prime any more. Everyone was just regurgitating the same dumb arguments, it was like the human centipede of balance arguments. | ||

Protoss won the least number of titles on Wol iirc, they just seemed good because toss was and always has been garbage at QQing about how weak their race is to get buffs. | ||

scroll down to WoL, basically the first half of 2014 is the only period in which toss actually dominated | ||

They weren't used to it after BW. (I'm mainly talking about the D- - C+ level of play though) | ||

Thread after thread about the socioeconomic factors of being a terran and being driven from the ladder due to the emotion damage of being beaten by lesser plays and the long terms effects on their college prospects. It was a sight to see. And then that piece of crap came out about the era of PvZ craft and I checked the fuck out of TL. | ||

Despite the overall skill gap between the T v Z whine matchup, Zergs ended up victorious by unifying as a race their QQ to create a game where the Zerg is expected to 1. always have the econ advantage, 2. always have free, perfect scouting, 3. has the strongest lategame composition. To a point where blizzard basically gave up and said fuck it new game. the truth | ||

You're correct. 'toss had at best a few months of dominance every time a player came out with a cool new build. Terran was extremely broken towards the start of WoL (mostly due to maps), and then Zerg was getting pretty broken towards the end. There was never an extended time where it was Protoss everywhere. | ||

literally a mentally retarded chipmunk with 3 fingers and no belly button could play toss into GM which made the game so unbelievably frustrating | ||
