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! | ||

If terran is at a slight disadvantage that doesn't mean that blizzard _has_ to patch the game asap if it gets equaled out. there is no 50:50 matchup in BW. Mods fell asleep, blame Happy and Tod. No they dont and thats what im illustrating, itll probably lead to a meta shift that avoids terrans playing macro games. The only problem is the protoss arsenal of early game aggression/cheese (I feel) has always been more varied so itll be interesting to see how players try to deal with it. I mean if anyone saw the Kas Mana game I cant think of anything Kas couldve done better to win it. Having to play reactively isnt an ideal situation to be in for terran. They cant warp in and they dont have swarm style production. O wait they have mules. but yes the terran lineup at the event wasnt exactly stellar so its no surprise. The protoss in the last 16 are just better players. | ||

Huk has played a bit sloppy lately with micro mistakes as well as bad decisions. (choices for expansions in those pvt matches today nearly lost him his 36 spot) | ||
