teams simply don't want so send zerg out for zvp, and really dont wanna rely on luck with pvp. So they always end up sending a terran out against a protoss

Looks like the coaches aren't confident in sending out any Zerg players.

Against a Protoss, there aren't very many reliable ways that a team will choose using the other two races (Z and P). So basically that leaves us with PvT after PvT.

PvP completely disregards the skill levels of both individual players, it's whoever 4gates or makes moar colossi.

PvZ is.... you know.

So yes, sending Terran in after Terran DOES give us games where the caliber of the match is based on the skill of both players. Feel free to discuss.

"Jeez! He beat our first 2 terrans, so let's send another one! It's most certainly seems as his weakest match-up! Surely all the previous PvT results of this tournament so far must have been a fluke! This is a GREAT PLAN!:D"

The PvT record for this tournament so far (up to and including game 2 of ST vs. TSL) is 9-4 in favour of Protoss. This includes Squirtle's PvR win over GuMiho, who spawned as Terran.

-_- really not happy about tonight, more TvP's to add to the pile and even though Coach Lee (TSL coach) said that the TSL players had practiced alot on new maps and felt they would win if they played on the new maps both the players that got to pick have gone and picked old maps ;\

It might be less ZvP fear and more FDvP fear

I'm a Protoss player, and I'd love to see a zerg at some point. :/

I don't even like to get into the whole balance fight but what's up with the zerg hate. Someone correct me but isn't check the only zerg that have played in this? I roll random so I enjoy PvT too but I miss the little zergs

Yup checks the only zerg to have played. Guess the managers just aren't confident in their zerg players T_T.

Every team should send out their #1 player first, every time!

Haha idd, cant stop to hate that Tasteless comparing to how he was in BW... Now the only thing he can say is: "IF YOU ARE BEHIND, GET THE GOLD BASE, YOU MUST GET THE GOLD BASE OR YOU LOSE"
