Wow, i cant believe i read it
"One more thing that should be noted is that, apparently, Bisu did not prepare to go up against Shine."

I liked to see it written this way. To be honest, you guys know a lot of SC, i love to read your articles. The only fault i see is when you made statements recklessly.
Like, because the loss to Shine, you said, in the last article, that it shown Bisus arrogance and cockyness. While it may be true, we dont know for sure, it may be another thing also.
Its like saying that of Le Brow because he lost the title. The fans can get very angry if the words are poorly choosen (and in that case they were very poorly chosen).

Its not a matter of opinion, its a matter of respect, like you defended new players/fans should act to the ones like boxer (wich i agree).
Using words like you did in this article is more adequate, imo, and reflects better your level of SC knowledge and profissionalism toward it.

I agree that the gap between Jaedong and other zergs has gotten a lot smaller in the past year (still pretty big though).

I think Effort and Calm are gonna rape the world up a lil. Maybe Jaedong and Hyuk, depends if Jaedong puts on his crown and if Hyuk keeps playing well.

About ZvP, I think that the big maps are the biggest issue why zergs are doing well both against protoss and terran. Zerg thrives on big maps, they can expo all over and get their gas count up easily. Protoss can easily be outmacroed on bigger maps PvZ and the endless stream of zerg units will finally run protoss over. Zerg also doom drops, which are hard to defend for protoss when their army is far away. Besides, ZvP has always been slightly imbalanced on the kind of maps used in the pro-gaming circuit.

Terran are also having a hard time on the big maps. For the same reason that zerg likes playing vs protoss on these new maps they also love playing vs terran. Terran aren't that mobile in TvZ and with zerg harassing everywhere and building bases in different corners of the map, it's hard for terran to know what do to, where to attack etc. The map is simply too big for his liking.

PvT is the same. The big maps favor protoss, and the recalls are even more deadly and imba because of terrans army usually being quite far away from home base. Stasis still rules, recall still rules, and invisibility isn't on a timer. Arbiters still rock in other words. They rock too much

Why is there so much whining about ZvP imbalance when TvZ is statistically more imbalanced?


Current Proleague season:
TvZ: 15-6 (71.4%) [ Games ]
ZvP: 13-7 (65%) [ Games ]

'08-'09 Proleague:
TvZ: 122-101 (54.7%) [ Games ]
ZvP: 112-94 (54.4%) [ Games ]

'08 Proleague:
TvZ: 35-21 (62.5%) [ Games ]
ZvP: 30-32 (48.4%) [ Games ]

'07 Proleague round 2:
TvZ: 45-40 (52.9%) [ Games ]
ZvP: 37-41 (47.4%) [ Games ]

'07 Proleague round 1:
TvZ: 46-38 (54.8%) [ Games ]
ZvP: 37-31 (54.4%) [ Games ]
