Please try to keep the discussion civil. And while I can't ask everyone to write a huge essay like tree.hugger, try to write out your opinions in a substantive, well-thought way. | ||

If you haven't noticed that protoss sucks against terran, and has profound cost-efficiency difficulties against zerg, it’s because you're blind. It has taken imbalance on such an appalling scale as the 1/1/1 family of builds to cast MC down, to make him look mortal and prove once and for all that protoss is absolutely trash at the highest level of competition. So true. I nearly cried while watching MC get torn apart in the Up and Downs. Protoss is once again cost inefficient and easily abused. My heart is broken. Blizzard needs to fix something | ||

Can't believe there was no mention of him as this was his best finish in a long time. He came into it only playing part time after personal issues held him back and stormed through the group stages. Ah well.... | ||

EDIT : Looks like the that article opened up a new balance whine thread. Balance whine on the front page, TL changed  | ||

I'm rather surprised you went as far as to say MC outmicroed and outmultitasked Puma because I didn't see either of those in the finals at IEM. He had an excellent shot to beat the 1/1/1 twice but failed to capitalise on the ample advantages he was given, and his control blunder in game 2 allowed a fully loaded warp prism to be sniped by Puma's vikings (Puma also won the standard ghost vs templar war again) really changing the momentum of the game. | ||

It's a good thing to say "at the highest level of competition" but a lot of people will miss these few very important words. Exactly. Its not worth talking about balance unless you're talking about the top. As a diamond player myself, anything I lose to is not imbalanced, because there are people out there who are clearly better than me who would stomp all over my opponents. There's always room for improvement... | ||

'mOOnGLaDe' not found. Awwww, I thought he would at least be mentioned since he advanced out of his group when everyone expect him to go 0-3... | ||

Straight forward to the point where Protosses is struggling at the highest stage now. Obviously something is wrong and tweaks has to be done to encourage more peoples on playing Protoss as their main race. The numbers of Protoss Code-S is miserable. Now matter how strong the Protoss deathfall is, a money EMP or money fungal growth is enough to demolish the deathball. I'm sad, very sad to be a Protoss player. In fact, i've stopped laddering due to the fact that Protoss simply can't win anymore late game against Z/T. This not not a balance discussion rather that thoughs on how the current metagame is producing. Please deepest apologizes to mod if my contents do shows like a whinning balance respond. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

Ok I'm sure you have a lot of good points but making a sob story out of MC and saying less successful Zerg players "leaves open the possibility that zerg does in fact have a fighting chance in SC2" while Protoss players are "utter failure[s]" is a little much. | ||
