Please stop the tournament comparison discussion. Especially regarding players their runs (Stephano seems to be the current topic). Stay on topic and stick to the games. Consequences will be met out to further derailment.

In addition leave the usual out of this topic:

-Balance complaints
-Map complaints
-Stream complaints
-Caster/player bashing
-Off topic discussions

Logically continue this list with things that are obviously frowned
upon. Enjoy the free and wonderful event with loads of games and coverage!

Nope, but there is a 30 min break before the next match so you have plenty of time to fix that

I do have the problem T_T. Don't know what to do now.

Stephano why u no like money anymore?

discuss what exactly? I would of put my house and so would many others that nani and HuK would both get through, im actually disapointed they didnt win their group... Genius was always favourite of his group and well sarens and deathangel arent great.

Like the next groups to come up next Sase is miles the better player in his group and Hero should be abel to get through his group eve thought both SeN and DRG could just as well get through. The last groups ToD is also a massive favourite while white-ra on form can beat the other two but I cant see it. The last group It will be Kas and Mana even though pvp anythign can happen and it only take kas to play abd in two sets and hes out.




So... Protoss loses: "P up"
Protoss wins: "P players are just better."

Interesting.

Normally I'd agree with you, but the Protoss players at Dreamhack really are way better than the Terrans or Zergs. Count the number of players from each race who live in Korea.



Oh you mean like back at the early MLG's where 90% of the korean players were terran and everyone complained that terran is OP? It's hypocritical. Back when terran koreans won foreign tournaments it's clearly because terran is just OP. Now that protoss dominates tournaments it's because protoss players are simply better. How amusing.


perhaps you should stop balance whining and grow a pair. Im comparing it to the fact of the 4 protosses who have qualifed so far only one I didnt think would get through. I also predicted sheth wouldnt go through and Stepahno would. Im saying my OWN opinion. IN the remaingin groups I cant actually see White-ra get through but I can see ToD. I was wrong in rrepvious post SaSe I think is better then nerchio, im not writing Nerchio off hes goign to come second in the group.. and if he plays well he can beat SaSe but I still think SaSe is better then both Daboo and Select(who can be hot and cold) if Select is hot and Nerchio plays well the is every chance SaSe wont get through, my opinion thought is SaSe will go through... Same as Group F I want Hero and think hero will doit after a decent run at MLG, but DRG is the favourite in that group and Sen can ebat anyone too but I have a feeling Hero will beat Sen and beat elfi in PVP. PLus I also think KAS will come top of a 3 other Protoss group so im not ebing biased towards Protoss at all.


he's not talking about ur view

hes talking bout the community tendency to say P losing = sad zealot
and while P winning = good player


which i also thought exactly the same

Can you actually deny that protoss was in a sad state for awhile? They have good players and it is showing lately. They are in no way dominating and the terran complaints after a few weeks of losing key matches to them is annoying. All three races have had good results lately. GSL final 4 is balanced with 2 t a p and a z. The game is quite balanced and the stars on all three sides of it are playing well. This could be a tournament with any number of winners. Thats the way I like it

Oh come on now. The amount of balance whine by protoss players back when they lost so much was unreal and now as soon as someone just mentions the fact that protoss is not that unsuccesful anymore you just call them out and tell them to "gtfo" because protoss players are just better. Maybe you now know what it felt like for us terrans back when korean terrans won every MLG and people blamed balance for it.

And this community is incredibly biased toward protoss, they even have their own fanclub where they complain about how underpowered their race is, but as soon as a terran ever complains they get insulted and called out by like 20 people. This community is full of hypocrites and you know it. The mods don't allow balance whine? Then why is there a fanclub or even articles that complain about protoss being oh so underpowered? It's ridiculous and you all know it.


But when protoss players said they were UP and terrans OP the community had facts to talk about and whine balance was with arguments. Now all I see from terrans or zergs is " force field OP"and i am like WTF?

When white ra or hero wins a game they are not abusing a unit but are just playing better. If you want to start saying that protoss is getting OP start laying out some facts like we did with ghosts or 1-1-1.
Mess with the best, die like the rest.

They allow discussions on balance. Your complaining is ridiculous -_- I also assume that a fan club is the right place for what is meant as a joke despite the seriousness of their feelings at the time.

You do know that the reason peoplle were whinging about Protoss was because in fact, on charts etc it showed how much the other races in PRO GAMES trounched Protoss not basing the arguments on our games but PRO games, protoss were getting deomlished, further established in the amount of Protoss dropping from Code S. Since the patch with immortal getting buffed it picked up and now like Zerg before them started to work things out, lower level players will AWLAYS balance whine regardless if they play Zerg, Protoss or Terran. My argument in this thread and my opinion was the favourite are always going ot be the Koreans and the Korean trained foreigners and I dont take that back, only about 3-4 players who also had a chance but they all seem to be in really hard groups where in other groups they would of got through,( i mean Idra etc). ANyway some guy said it wasnt probably directed at me but at thigns in general but why post and quote me if it isnt relevant to what i said then.

I'm sad for Thorzain, but we must admit that Naama's super agressive style works.

I don't think people take the difference in formats into account correctly. When thorzain won TSL it was on practicing really hard on specific match-ups vs specific players. He's a very strong player, but this is not the same as preparing for a tournament with groups stages, etc.
I always try to shield slam face, just to make sure it doesnt work

This is so not true. Namaa played epic games with Mana in the finals and most of they were long macro games.


That's clearly not true.
Game 1 - Lost Temple - close spots, 1 base contain
Game 2 - quick Scrap Station game, would've been crazy not to make second CC vs protoss there.
Game 3 - Naama is gearing up for a 1 base push, sees MaNas Nexus so he responds with CC not to be totally all in with the contain.
Game 4 - Metalopolis is macro game, fine.
Game 5 - Naama 1 basing with cloaked banshee's, after taking a clear advantage he takes exp but at this point it's pretty much gg.

sad to see EG scrap it out
Stephano why u no like money anymore?

discuss what exactly? I would of put my house and so would many others that nani and HuK would both get through, im actually disapointed they didnt win their group... Genius was always favourite of his group and well sarens and deathangel arent great.

Like the next groups to come up next Sase is miles the better player in his group and Hero should be abel to get through his group eve thought both SeN and DRG could just as well get through. The last groups ToD is also a massive favourite while white-ra on form can beat the other two but I cant see it. The last group It will be Kas and Mana even though pvp anythign can happen and it only take kas to play abd in two sets and hes out.




So... Protoss loses: "P up"
Protoss wins: "P players are just better."

Interesting.

Normally I'd agree with you, but the Protoss players at Dreamhack really are way better than the Terrans or Zergs. Count the number of players from each race who live in Korea.



Oh you mean like back at the early MLG's where 90% of the korean players were terran and everyone complained that terran is OP? It's hypocritical. Back when terran koreans won foreign tournaments it's clearly because terran is just OP. Now that protoss dominates tournaments it's because protoss players are simply better. How amusing.


perhaps you should stop balance whining and grow a pair. Im comparing it to the fact of the 4 protosses who have qualifed so far only one I didnt think would get through. I also predicted sheth wouldnt go through and Stepahno would. Im saying my OWN opinion. IN the remaingin groups I cant actually see White-ra get through but I can see ToD. I was wrong in rrepvious post SaSe I think is better then nerchio, im not writing Nerchio off hes goign to come second in the group.. and if he plays well he can beat SaSe but I still think SaSe is better then both Daboo and Select(who can be hot and cold) if Select is hot and Nerchio plays well the is every chance SaSe wont get through, my opinion thought is SaSe will go through... Same as Group F I want Hero and think hero will doit after a decent run at MLG, but DRG is the favourite in that group and Sen can ebat anyone too but I have a feeling Hero will beat Sen and beat elfi in PVP. PLus I also think KAS will come top of a 3 other Protoss group so im not ebing biased towards Protoss at all.


he's not talking about ur view

hes talking bout the community tendency to say P losing = sad zealot
and while P winning = good player


which i also thought exactly the same

Can you actually deny that protoss was in a sad state for awhile? They have good players and it is showing lately. They are in no way dominating and the terran complaints after a few weeks of losing key matches to them is annoying. All three races have had good results lately. GSL final 4 is balanced with 2 t a p and a z. The game is quite balanced and the stars on all three sides of it are playing well. This could be a tournament with any number of winners. Thats the way I like it



You realize that only about 4 protoss players lost in Code S but 18 terrans did? It is only balanced when you look at the end result, but ignore how it all went down. But I can already see it, Zerg won about 9 of the last 12 big tournaments, yet everyone is still mainly complaining about terran. It's getting annoying because you want to know the actual reason why there are so few terrans in the leagues from grandmaster - silver league? because people are getting sick of being insulted just because they are playing a certain race.

This is not a balance discussion thread. Take your whining elsewhere.

imo tzain never reproduce his TSL3 awesomess anymore
he just died randomly in the middle of tournaments


He did well in DH Valencia. A very small (8 players) invitational, but still.


He was also one the more consistent foreigner in the GSTL.


He also performed well in the only MLG that he attended, even though he complained about the organization.
By the way why isn't MorroW participating in this tournament?

you can quite easily deny it, upgrades got cheaper by less money than even pros float and suddenly protoss just magically does better. its offtopic enough for a tourney thread but still. so sick of hearing about up protoss :<<<
