They play to win, not to entertain the audience. Someone else pointed this out, but it's not that simple. It's more like a Prisoner's Dilemma. Even though each player individually plays to win, if everyone in the GSL played in the most boring/unentertaining way possible just to win, no one would want to watch them play and sponsors would leave, league would die, etc thereby losing out in the end anyways. | ||

Then it's a problem with the game itself and Blizzard should take measures | ||

MVP should STOMP all over Choya, but he did lose to him last GSL. Will he redeem himself? well, the long rush distance isnt favoring Choya rushing off one base | ||

I'm not going to say that they're playing wrong for doing something boring and predictable, but it is disappointing and not as fun to watch. | ||
