Tasteless saying "He is all about bomber" when they were going over the old groups made me laugh because of the charades episode.

Overall a lot of good games in the two groups ... except the last one ... jeeeeeeez

That's a really bad idea, sure he has a 50% chance to get a better group, but he has a 50% shot of also dropping right down to Code A RO 32... and even if he gets a better group there's no guarantee he's going to make RO8 anyway (likewise, no guarantee he'll get eliminated in RO16, although it seems highly likely).

Leenock not Losira.

He has a good a shot as anyone. Leenock has bad ZvP and MMA can be beaten in TvP.

Group C was one of the best Code S groups I've seen yet! (started watching in August season). Amazing casting and games. HuK and Puzzle were incredible. Poor clide T.T

That $10 GSL season pass is the best deal. I'm very happy with my purchase =)

Yay a good day :D

edit:

Lol 1 day of tosses who have survived the culling of the last few months and we're being a little too optimistic. Look at who has been eliminated so far. Also note what gom did with the maps for Toss. Lets not get overexcited kids. Everyone was optimistic after Orlando and then the next set of tournaments corrected that misperception.


Which tournament are you talking about?

ESWC - P second
IeSF world champ - P second
Samsung Euro Champ - P first
ASUS RoG - P third
ESV Korean finals - P first and second

The only two major events where P did not finish top 3 were Blizzcon where Naniwa was the only recognizable toss and finished 4th and GSL finals, where everything apart from finals was already played before MLG. In the current GSL, toss are doing well in Code A and S. I am not sure which tournaments you are referring to.


Protoss was always doing fine in international tournaments but that doesn't say anything about balance though. I firmly believe people should stop using international tournaments as a means to perceive balance.


How should balance be decided then? Through game theoretic logic?


Through the highest level of play meaning Korean tournaments? Next thing you know the game is gonna balanced based around ladder.


But the highest level of play meaning Korean tournaments is a miniscule, MINISCULE sample size.

Besides it could be argued that since the Koreans aren't playing anywhere near perfectly ('everyone's still pretty bad at SC2' - Artosis) that we can't empirically judge balance from their play either. It is still perfectly possible that protoss was never underpowered and it was just a metagame thing - after all in a balanced asymmetrical RTS periods highs and lows in winrates are to be expected.

And the game is partially based around ladder; the 'adjusted win percentages' that Blizzard uses.

Its Leenock not Losira. Lately i think Leenock's the better player, though Losira is still alot stronger than Leenock ZvP.

Huk still has mediocre PvZ. Yugioh beats Nestea on later too and he always destroys Huk whenever they meet on ladder. Ladder play means nothing. Huk has to improve his PvZ, maybe he can get a few practice games against Coca.

Sangho indeed played very well.

Im glad a player like virus got knocked out of code s. I ve never seem a player donate so many vikings and medvacs like he does. At one time, he had 1.5k of each resource and was maxed, but he took aaaaaages to make a Ghost academy.

Who doesn't have mediocre PvZ though? I guess you could argue that Hero and Oz are good at the matchup, but then we realize that Hero hasn't even beaten any Code S zergs, and just BARELY squeezed by the first round of Code A to an unknown zerg and lost to line last season, and the only good zerg that Oz faced in Code A(Curious), raped him 4-0.

Why even discredit HuK? He'd probably rather go out 2-0 and then take down both Nestea and Losira.

I feel like this could be said, there aren't many good protoss with great pvzs lately, the closest i can think of anythign was MC beating idra, and even then idras zvp is horrible and he was playing probably the only person in the world that can still ruffle his feathers that much.

Novamber? Nah its November the-month-a--will-win-a-GSL-since-May-ember!
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

I don't mean to alarm you, but Nestea won Code S in May. It was March that MC won.

Yes, you would rather face the better players in later rounds, but sometimes it's unavoidable. You know you have to face the better players eventually, so might as well do it in later rounds, but you will have to play them eventually. If you want the most money you have to perform the best.
Thank you bureaucrats for all your hard work, your commitment to public service and public good is essential to the lives of so many. Also, for Pete's sake can we please get some gun control already, no need for hand guns and assault rifles for the public
