jesus, you can't base balance issue of one tournament. Wait 2-3 months and we'll know if the metagame is fucked or not... I feel like it is, but then again I play terran so ^^
Well, it's not just one tourney... GSL, GSTL, GESL and DHS...
I think it's indisputable that T is slumping esp. v Z.
But I agree that this is a small timeframe i.e. everyone chill and be patient  #HOPEforT.2012

There is only a single terran player left, and I stopped liking Taeja after he betrayed SlayerS so I see no point in watching this any further. I'm also truly astonished that a player like cytoplasm has managed to make it this far in Dreamhack with sloppy play like that, truly disgusting.

Oh sure... if you fill the braket with 80% of terrans, that sure will guarantee a terran in the ro8..

Congratz NERCHIO!!! What a great ro16 so far.
Now Stephano vs Nerchio. Many people seem to grant Nerchio an auto-win but I thing if he's favoured at all, it is by the smallest margin. Stephano has way, way, way more stage experience and you could see how tense Nerchio was already.
You don't wan't to be tense in a zvz...
Its weird that people favor Nerchio so much. 2-3 months ago Nerchio almost ragequitted when he played vs Stephano.
Its Stephano weakest matchup now but it isnt really that bad. I think its a cointoss.

Korean vs foreigner bias aside, I'm happy Keen lost. I don't really root for people to lose but Keen is the only exception. Why Keen? What have he done?
He insulted my mother and hit my kitten with a mousepad, that's why I hate him at least.

He wont destroy him but yea Nerchio will most likely win. Stephano has been traveling over a month now and his ZvZ has gotten worse and worse so yea I also think Nerchio will win Really Sad becuase I would love to see Stephano stomp Hero but proberly not gonna happend

Nahh Nerchio train that matchup alot and he have had alot of time while Stephano been busy in US for a month

I'm really torn who to root for in the liquid' teamkill btw ^^; Taeja advancing means more race variaty ro8 but Hero getting deep in a zerg-heavy tournament to get another DH championship would be aaaawesome as well.

Stephano is 8-5 against Nerchio, but they haven't played each other at anything important.

Predicting 2-1 for Nerchio, kinda doubt either player would 'destroy' the other though, even though Nerchio has to be considered the favourite here.

Trying to drop zerg mid to late game is like playing Russian roulette with 5 bullets loaded. Overlords everywhere, creep tumors everywhere and if that won't catch you, a random infestor will.
And this is why we need six drops at a time

Guys, Nerchio vs Stephano is close to 50/50 imo, I know Nerchio has been beating him on ladder lately, but Stephano plays alot better at LANs, and he definitely feels more comfortable than Nerchio.

Its probably because of Keen bunker rushing Squirtle twice, a risky and ballsy move that worked out in his favor also thanks to Squirtle botching the defense badly. But heck I guess some people just can't learn to deal with it.
Anyway, Cytoplasm vs Mana, on Daybreak, hopefully it won't take too long until some action happens.

btw, who is updating the OP? You could add the LRs for all the people who missed the games.

Whether you like or not the numbers/quantity of players also counts. Everybody can pull an upset once in a while. Look at the racial distribution in the beginning of the tournament. Only 30 Terrans....

Now that Nerchio overcame Brat_OK and soon Stephano, i'm really confident that HerO will win this DH!
