It's about time anyone gave monchi any credit for his accomplishments. Hell I don't even play protoss and it hurts to see everyone ignoring this guy starting way back when he defeated Mvp.

GoOdy with his 25 APM one of the best TvZ in the world? ROFL



THAT`S exactly what he´s talking about. APMfetishists and supplyblockcounters thinking they can
make fun of GoOdy who´d wipe the floor with any of them - ok, his results have not been massive lately, but isn´t he even a better player because he delivers despite his...handicaps? it´s a strategygame after all, and not the click-o-lympics.
He probably won´t make it too far into the tournament, but with all these people around I wish him even more luck!

The most important for me would be that EVERY ZvP and ZvT will be casted by PROs only.
Because the thing that bugs me the most by the current casters is that they simply ignore the zerg power atm. They treat every ZvP like its 50% win chance for everyone. And if the Zerg player wins, its because the P did major mistakes. Same goes for ZvT. Im sick of that kind of reasoning by the casters.

Fact is that at the moment its incredibly hard for P and T to beat Z. Its frusttrating, you just have to make verything perfect.I want PROs to express their feelings about that, talking about how they feel when they play. I dont want to hear for the standard casters "Oh, the Protoss should have attacked EXACTLY at 12:35, then the Zerg was at his weakest". Thats too simple.

Am I missing something? I thought all recent statistics suggested ZvP was balanced (even Toss favoured)


Have you heard of the sad zealot club?
Protosses are the most enclined whinners of this game.
- They win most tournaments (7 of the last 13) but say it's because of some players.
- They win more matches versus Zergs overall in most recent statistical analysis but say it is because of some unit or some strategy.
- They won the most money out of tournaments this year but they'll say it's because of this or that...

They are incredible

+ Show Spoiler +
Just look at this thread for example:
1) Someone facing evidence:
"You're perhaps right, but in other circumstances ..." by neptunusfisk
2) A lambda whinner:
"treat every ZvP like its 50% win chance for everyone. [...] Fact is that at the moment its incredibly hard for P and T to beat Z" by krisss
-> facts say no, then :
"Just because win rates are even doesn't mean that the races are in balance." by Targe
3) Last but not least:
"If you take out the Immortal-Sentry all-in [...] Part of this is probably form (only Hero and Parting playing well as Toss atm, vs lots of hot Zergs), but the matchup looks imbalanced to many (I still almost always win PvZ tho [...]" by althaz
->So, you win more matches, protosses win more matches/money/tournaments overall, but since more people whine about zergs versus protoss than the other way around, the gossip must be right and not the facts. Nice logic!
(note: I'm not saying toss is imba)

Goswer should have been invited, he has great potential, Llewelys has a really good nose to smell talents ( Huk, Stephano,.. )
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it

This is HSC. Not the best players in the game are invited. I guess NA fan favorites have declined the invite.

On that note, we bring you the most amusing stat of the group: GoOdy is 6 – 7 against Stephano all time. In fact, he even won their last meeting at Battle in Berlin. To this day, we're not entirely sure how that happened, but the world is a better place because of it. GoOdy fans, feel free to ignore the cries of "but that was over a year ago!" coming from the Stephano fans, and make sure to remind everyone that the Panzer General has the Frenchman's number.

It's easy: GoOdy had one of the best TvZ and Stephano was always bad with his Ling/Ultra vs Mech players. I'm getting annoyed by writters not to acknowledge how good GoOdy was. He was far ahead of most players in a lot of things. He beat Nestea when Koreans where waaaaaay better than foreigners. He had a number on every Zerg in the world as long as it hadnt been Nerchio (or now Hyun). After the queen patch though everything went downhill.

on another note:
gogo Carlo smash TLO!

GoOdy with his 25 APM one of the best TvZ in the world? ROFL
