To everyone whining about EMP and making absurd assumptions about how much damage it does, you realize zealots, stalkers and sentries don't even have 100 shields to begin with right?


Stalkers have 80

Also, I play random. And I honestly dont remember that last time I lost to a protoss as terran. A good early timing push will destroy mid level diamond protoss and if not you can transition to 1 of about 4 different tech routes.

I am not even close to a pro, but if I can do it on my level, I am sure pros can do something just as well.


middle diamond makes u at best D in bw, wouldnt speak about balance if i was D iccup player.


Never really played BW - Dont know the ranking systems. What % of people are broken into each category?

But for SC2 its 20/20/20/20/20 in each level - you can check sc2 ranks, There are about 10-15k people world wide that are mid diamond plus.

It's like 90% D 8% C 1.8% B 0.2% A


That'd be distribution on iccup itself, which is quite 'elitist'. If you take global(including your fellow UMS/BGH/FMP/2v2/3v3/4v4/FFA/simply bad players), it'd probably be 98+% D-/D.

Yes, beating the only Protoss left in the round of 8. An achievement of a lifetime.

if you're not excited about Boxer or Nada, you're not excited about Starcraft


Or I have a different opinion than everyone else. I didn't come to Starcraft 2 from Brood War, so Boxer and Nada don't mean much to me. I prefer mixed matchups instead of mirror matchups regardless of who is playing. And please don't flame me because I'm a "noob" fan or whatever.


You're not excited about Starcraft.


Thank you for assuming incorrect things about me. Fortunately for you, I don't do the same thing.


I didn't come from Brood War either and I for one am still excited to see two amazing players do a bo5 mirror match.

I can understand disliking ZvZ because it's so often such a retarded bling vs bling back and forth that never ever gets to a late game, but TvT is nearly a guaranteed 3+ base game.

I guess TvT is boring if you prefer the paper/rock/scissors BO vs BO games to long strategic games where people fight for control of territory instead of having a "can he build 5 colossi before the other guy makes 6 vikings?" contest.

Maybe you should catch up on your SC then because Boxer vs Nada is like Jordan vs Magic.

Just because you don't understand the matchups doesn't mean they aren't good for people who do. I play random so I enjoy watching ALL matchups, yes including the 'dreaded mirror matches.' There are those who would say PvX is boring, and you would probably disagree. Thus, it's all a matter of opinion, and when it comes to the final 4, there's a fairly decent chance 1 race will be missing. If it happens to be the race you want to see, tough luck, but no one owes you anything.

3-1 ITR. It was a pretty good series, or it would have been if it didn't mean that there are yet again no Protoss in the Ro4.

ITR has been overshadowed a bit with his disappointing performance in the finals last GSL, and with NaDa and Boxer playing as well. But the dude is deadly, and creative.

No, this is just factually incorrect. Jordan vs Magic is like Boxer vs Nada, because the latter pair is cooler, better, and has more fans following it.

I am glad Foxer won and ITR remembered how to destroy scrubs.

Your next opponent is HopeTorture.
- Even though HopeTorture was a semi-finalist from last season, I think it’ll be easy matchup because he is weaker than some of the Terrans I know. Also because sSKS didn’t qualify this season, I think if I make it to the finals I feel like I can win.
So much for that.

Lets not talk about imbalance here
Lets talk about history and player

Bonjwa SC BW: 4 terran + 1 zerg
Genius said toss is imba but GSL 1 and GSL 2: no toss in semi finals althought toss qualifies more than zerg in both
Now look at SC BW: Flash and Jaedong

Toss players are just bad(the race is strong, in fact a bit strong that blizz gonna nerf toss late game), or put in other way, toss top players not incredibly good compared to legendary zerg or terran, as history goes.

Nothing lasts forever

Genius had no chance, especially since Rainbow trains with Cella and his awesome 13 gate build. Cella plug because I can!

Same for me, I really like sc2 as a show, I usualy like everymatchup and I think there are good games in all matchups

Anyway, the Foxer VODs are up since like 20mn, and

Good argument, yep, although there are more toss players than zergs, and they practice more or less the same, somehow all the truely talented players just choose terran and zerg, sounds logical.
