This thread just spawned the HD hatewagon. Do people dislike Husky in same manner too here in TL?


I think Husky might actually be worse (I think his voice is grating), I think they both lack fundamental game knowledge and they appeal to the casual fan while completely turning off the hardcore ones.

High def BW is such an oxymoron lol. Kind of like watching everyone stream on low settings in 1080p.

Zergs seem to be all-inning sooo much in ZvP nowadays. The matchup is degenerating


Consider about 2 months ago when terrans only did all-ins against zerg, and everybody was like "OMG MATCHUP DEGENERATING", but with no actual balance changes , the matchup evolved (regenerated?) into one of the most interesting, dynamic ones.


This, it's more like setting the ground rules for the match up. 3 gate expands might just be a little bit too greedy at the moment because you're so blind until hallucinate is out.

Terran rushes got nerfed to HELL. I don't know what you are talking about lol.

Not only was every close position map removed, but bunkers take +5-10 seconds than before to make, cannot block ramps, etc.

I don't think that's what's happening here. All of my favorite casters are more popular than HD is, so for me popularity really has nothing to do with it.

In my opinion, the only sad thing is that you really can actually call IdrA's build a blind counter to 3 gate expand even after he scouted the 2 gates going down. Kiwi still could have been doing almost anything.

Maybe because Idra did a standard speedling opening into hatch on 21 and he was like OHHHHHH MY GODDD HES GOING ALL IN AGAINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN before he put his hatch down? When it's STANDARD PLAY?

GSL is like this every night, do you complain about that? Tasteless gives nothing but useless 'information' and follows Artosis' lead. Painuser gives the insightful pro commentary of what he would be thinking while playing.

If you had actually listened to Husky's TSL3 casting, you would've noticed that he has improved greatly and added some nice analysis to his casting.
