It seems you don't either, seeing as how you didn't even make it past qualifiers.

Ban pls. This is the greatest BS i've read for months.
Seriously.


yeah can't say something bad about poor nazgul *cry*

I don't know... Reasonably speaking, we can acknowledge that the game was created by *humans*. There are going to be balance imperfections. Some bigger than others.

And these guys are playing for a LOT of money. And this is supposed to be a contest of skill. Which is pride and talent demonstration.

Balance IS and *should* be a concern for these guys. I'm not saying balance is an issue *here*, but no one should ever belittle balance discussion. Balance should always be discussed.


Discussing balance and 1000 people who don't even play on the highest level whining about balance, are two completely different things

Oh man Jangminchul got raped...
But on game 2 I don't understand why he just didn't put a probe near his natural, he knew polt had marauders close-by. Also after he got his nexus sniped, why didn't he invest in some cannons?

450-600 on cannons and the nexus wouldve still died. He had no intention of having the marauders live in the first place.


4 Marauders does not kill 3 cannons that easily.

Hard to defend, open natural with a cliff right on top of it. That cliff is the thing nightmares are made off...

jangminchul has had really bad luck with the brackets too....I think polt and IdrA/cool have been the best players of their races respectively that we've seen so far; I guess if his opponent had been just a "little" bit worse, he would've had it

There are no open spaces so you get funneled everywhere. There are cliffs everywhere that air units or cliffing can abuse.

So kulas is good for terran to abuse against zerg, but what could a toss player do?

Can we please leave balance discussion and/or whining out of this (and future) LR threads? It just does nothing but bloat the thread full of crap.

Wow can balance complaints in these threads please be a warning worthy offense, I don't particularly care whether or not the complaints might be valid. It ruins these threads, pretty fucking hard since nobody actually talks about the strategies that took place.

Seriously 5 marauders snipe a nexus in under 10 secs. How many zeals/stakers would it take to snipe a repairing command center? Of course they can always lift.


There's no point in talking about zealot sniping because if it's aggaisnt a planetary fortress they'll die, if it's aggainst OC it will lift up. Colossus suck aggainst buildings, templars can't attack them, immortals are always too few, sentries no point, dt too few and fragile, phoenixs, void rays are good but easily countered and not by far as used as marauders, and that leaves stalkers which are the units with lowest dps in the game. You can test it but, it probably takes close to triple the stalkers to take a OC down as fast as marauders take a nexus.

Terran were made thinking that they are immobile and slow, their buildigns lifting up, salvage bunkers, and stim, but they're not so immobile. I'd go as far to say they're as or more mobile than protoss because of stim, their bio being not that slow even without stim, and medivac drops.

I don't really care what nazgul, sauron or the pope say about the matchup not being imbalanced. They are not infallible and they are wrong, as many people that see no imbalance on TvP are, and if blizzard wants the matchup to be fair they will have to bring some nerfs more than the ones already announced. I will be smiling in the future after this happens thinking about the many deniers, pretending everything is ok.

Cheers

Stop talking balance in live report threads

so we cant voice our honest opinion about the games we see? whats the point of a LR thread then? If I see 2 players and think one is much better than the other but the winner abuses a totally imbalanced strat or map I cant comment on the game at all? Its like keeping map balance out of a LR thread back when they played DMZ 2on2 in PL. Some situations just force certain topics upon the discussion
