Can't wait for HerO to destroy this guy.

ppl claim that Squirtle got a 100% PvP. And hes really that good in mirror


And none of the Ps he beat were HerO (since like a year ago). Hero's fundamentals are way better, as long as he doesn't get mindfucked by builds it won't even be close. Squirtle can't even land a freaking forcefield. -_-

PvP finals could be pretty interesting. ZvZ GSL finals turned out all right and pretty educative.

And here I was hoping I'd find a way to win TvPs from the four high quality terrans in the Ro8. Guess the only answer is marine/SCV all ins. Sucks for Taeja I really thought he was going to win it, but yay for getting all-ined 3 times. Even when it doesn't work, it works.

And here I thought you needed good forcefields to win as protoss.

Hmmm, delicious Terran Tears.

After all the whinning Terran has suffered since launch I expected Terrans to be more classy. It seems thats not the case


It's not like Protoss were classy when they were winning nothing.


Terran still had 3 players in the RO8, Protoss had 1 player in the RO16 once. =P

Isn't it ironic. I remember a few months back everyone was sick of Terrans and TvT. Protoss dominates most Terran one season everyone gets pitch forks about balance and are now rooting for the Terran LOL.

The terrans should have used their strong midgame.

Think if Naniwa won it could have been all-protoss Ro4.

I love how when MKP or MVP win it's because they are beasts (which they are) but when Toss wins it's all thinly veiled balance whine. HerO and Squirtle are both in boss mode lately, it's got little to do with balance.


Dude... Hero and Squirtle are good, but look at the whole picture of this season of Code S :
- Ro32: 7/10 protoss make it through vs. 7/15 for terran
- Ro16: 5/7 protoss vs. 3/7 terran with a protoss taking first place in all groups
- Ro8: all protoss win except Naniwa who played against the most successful player in the history of sc2 and GSL.

That doesn't mean all these protoss players are unskilled or don't deserve, but it's being blind to affirm there is not a balance problem.

(And I don't even mention the misery that is zerg right now)


Then explain to me this:

Edit: Whoops, wrong stat. Let's try this again.

http://www.gomtv.net/records/index.gom?searchType=3&race=T&vsrace=P&season=2012&leaguetype=20&leagueid=27062&gamever=0&mapid=0


I'm (obviously) talking about the current state of the game. What happened with different patches and different metagames is entirely irrelevant to consider current balance. The recent Code S seasons, on the other end, are THE most relevant data.


Yeah, man. The updated stats are THIS season of the GSL.


The set score is pretty even, and it wouldn't be if it wasn't for the Code A matches (which I consider less relevant than code S)

Also, watch for season 1 : 60% set wins for Protoss vs T
http://www.gomtv.net/records/index.gom?searchType=3&race=P&vsrace=T&season=2012&leaguetype=20&leagueid=27060&gamever=1.4.3&mapid=0

So, please...


Why should Code A be less relevant than Code S, though? I mean, I agree that it's a bit less relevant, but it's still the GSL. I fail to see what the problem is if there are about 6-7 tip-top Protoss players looking extremely strong while a ton of weaker Tosses fall in Code A, which is, I might add, still a ridiculously high-level tournament.

Oh, and you might want to take a closer look at what you linked before you talk about stats. I'll let you figure out your mistake. Here's a big hint

http://www.gomtv.net/records/index.gom?searchType=3&race=P&vsrace=T&season=2012&leaguetype=20&leagueid=27060&gamever=1.4.2&mapid=0

What I really don't get is how there is no one going to Taeja's booth for some encouraging words. I mean, HerO is right there in the studio and already through, why does he not go to his younger teammate to cheer him on.

Seems like Naniwa was the only one to put up a fight in ro8, taking game off MVP...

Why didn't he just base-trade again there? 1 spot on the map for squirtle vs 3 for Taeja.

This. Fly away and basetrade again.

8 zealots, 1 cannon and 2 templar with 2 storm each on a 2 forcefield ramp would like to disagree with you


he had no obs, terran could have dropped into his old main then stay at the ramp to the natural and block off the army. Afterwards 2 marauders to snipe the probes and deny mining. Base trade impossible, since the terran is at 3 locations. But instead Taeje was to scared to scan and lose some eco and rather played totally blind, which cost him the game.

1)Forcefield on the ramp
2)Storm
3)Do you know how hard it is to micro against a Protoss army, let alone 3 separate armies?

At least TvT finals were over an hour long

This finals might be worse than Losira vs Nestea DDDD:

do ppl actually find these games fun to watch? i feel like we are being forced to watch and love sc2 because it's the successor. it honestly does not seem that great. i wish there was more tvz, the only interesting matchup to watch.

Artosis making fun of Tasteless for his lack of knowledge when he doesn't realise Squirtle is a squirrel/turtle hybrid. Pfft.

Not looking forward to PvP finals.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?
