Nice find. "I haven't decided what I find worse yet: the fact that we get music rather than 3v3 arena, or just the music itself."

Chrono boost gives 50% faster build time. Which means 3 instead of 2 probes in the same time with ~1 Chrono boost used. You have to account for SCV's building shit to where as protoss just can warp in buildings

Yes, BUT 2 Chrono costs the same amount of energy as 1 mule, and don't forget that you'll essentially have 1 mule for 1 oc the entire game whereas the probes you chronoboost accumulate
But the Nexus has less energy than the OC so it doesn't matter if Chrono is 25 while Mule is 50.

That was IEM right?Still pretty bad to not pay out the prize money.

I don't know why he pointed that out, "I won't translate that". I mean, seriously? Why not? With that kind of tone I don't know if your a good person for the job. Get someone else or try act more positive, it's part of the job. Anyhow, great play by thorzain! He said he wasn't gonna translate the mules are imba part with a smirk on his face. How is that being negative. People need to relax... He also "thanked" Thorzain for giving a long, technical answer to a question. Passive-aggressive translator is passive-aggressive. People are saying he has other stuff on his plate, whatever, they should get someone to translate who isn't going to treat it like a chore.
He was trying to be funny...

You guys are doing the stupid "x vs y omg X IS IMBALANCED" shit again.
Look, Mules have their advantages. So does Chronoboost. There is one thing that I'll comment on though, and that is Chronoboost is vital for improving timings and pumping upgrades/units so it cannot match Mules economy-wise. However, that's only one fucking aspect of the race, there's a ton of other shit that balances it out.
Clearly economy harass on a Terran that's on two base WHILE YOU'RE ON ONE BASE isn't the way to go.

Two factors that lead to P FEs getting really punished by 1base T. But they also mean that Terran's going to be mined out alot faster . This is true! Just, uh, not a very common occurrence - and mining out faster still means he got his money before you :p

No P could get way ahead if he just chronoboosts his Nexus a lot, especially when he expands. I think the complaint about MULES here are they can let Terran stay on equal ground for a quite long among of time after getting alot of scvs killed. Ofc if you kill 15scvs you gonna be ahead but not immediately since MULES will do that much, so Terran can go for a really strong timing push killing their opponents before they even have the chance to capitalize on there advantages. That's simply wrong. Mule is on avg worth ~4.5 SCVs(up to 6 between 16-22 workers on minerals), it costs 2 SCVs to make the OC. Heck each nexus you make, slap 5 chronos on it and you have equal'ed the terran's OC and don't need to chrono it again for the rest of the game.
The advantage of the mule is simply, it requires fewer patches for terran to play. Aslong as you aren't oversaturated, loosing workers will hurt just as much for terran as toss/zerg. Ofcourse the reason people feel terran doesn't suffer as badly as zerg/toss, loosing workers is because terran gets more workers on 2 base, that is to say, terran gets say 44 workers on 2 base + 2 mules while toss gets 44 workers. Terran looses 10 workers, but has 2 mules so it comes down from terran having econ advantage to equal.

It's pretty sad, I was kind of curious to see what "competitive" 3v3 looked like nowadays since there's been fuck all in the way of tournaments since last blizzcon. Now one finally comes around and they don't get anything streamed lol 
Imagine how you'd feel if MLG broadcast Halo over SC2 because of time constraints one event.
Then imagine not having had any SC2 events for a year prior to that too.
I can feel their pain.

? What do you mean with production? They were delayed for several hours, there are no player booths, the interviewers are very unprofessional (never even turning towards the crowd or camera). From what I've heard the WoW players are being screwed over because blizzard hasn't installed WoW on their computers yet, too. Oh, and the "HD" stream isn't remotely close to HD, i.e. nowhere near the quality of dreamhack.
But on the positive side it's free, there are some interesting players and the casting duo could be worse.
