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! |

Or they're waiting to see what happens considering it's been less than a single GSL season since the last change. I didn't realize Starcraft was only played at GSL, thank you for enlightening me. there's been plenty of games both inside and outside Korea to see the MU has changed noticeably since the latest patch.

Just saying, Terrans have often complained about 'imbalance' when match ups have gotten closer to 50%. So, seeing Terran tears is often a good sign! Having said that, foreigner Terrans sure never win anything. Really wonder why they can't do as well as the Koreans whilst the foreign P and Z can at least compete.

Shocking, I know.

Admittably I do not know everything about SC1 history and maybe Idra can compete but I don't know if he has equally long bacground. As far as I have understood WhiteRa has been kicking ass longer than Idra. Stop posting. Your opinion is obviously subjective, the idea of a number one is always subjective and you obviously have no idea what you're writing about if your opinion is prefaced with a "probably" after getting smacked down by everyone regarding it. Just let it go and move on.
Ok. Thank you for your non-subjective input. I will stop posting.

No, there are still games that have to be played. They way it is looking right now, there is a pretty good possibility for a 3-way tie in Group H.

I'm disappointed by DH Game quality is lower than most tournaments, so much sloppy play

True, most games I see of TvP for example is Terran trying to exploit a weakness while Protoss just defends defends defends until 200 supply and push with 15 WG...

Seems like Terran being hard mode trAnslated from sc1 to sc2.

i actually enjoyed that TvT, i really wonder how you couldnt have, this involved some strategy which i so often miss in the other Matchups. This was no lame cheese or an all ending all-in. it was a solid game with a lot of strategic movement and decisions. i really dont know why most people did not enjoy that game? :o

My thought is: it seams like with Terran, that Blizz is nerfing terran not because of the race, but because of its (good) players.
