My own opinion, but I really don't trust many of the recommendations anymore (though I do believe any MKP game voted high is usually worth watching). | ||

I remember i thought this was a significant change a few months ago, and really didn't like it. Though no ones has been effected by it, due to no Zerg ever doing it. | ||

I'd say well over half of the protoss games get voted poor, when a lot of them have really interesting play. On a different note, when a protoss loses, I find a lot of the time these games are voted up when they're really not so interesting. My own opinion, but I really don't trust many of the recommendations anymore (though I do believe any MKP game voted high is usually worth watching). From an unbiased perspective, essentially all of Symbol's games were worth watching, the series versus PartinG for flawless play from both sides, but especially some revolutionary play from Symbol, and the series vs MKP due to a jaw-dropping show-off from Symbol. Game 1 was by far the game of the night. PartinG vs Yugioh game 2 was one long wtf moment which you might find entertaining, maybe not. MKP vs PartinG didn't live up the hype though, all three games were short and lackluster. | ||

Not to mention he had vikings. Is it really hard to understand an expensive, slow, mediocre damage/aoe, short ranged nuke sucks? | ||

MKP played excellently, maybe even a bit better than I've ever seen him play, but he was completely and utterly OUTCLASSED by Symbol. Symbol completely stampeded him over him Game 1. MKP but up a fantastic fight and pulled off some incredible moves and compositions I wasn't expecting to see, but at no point did I ever think Symbol would lose. Nearly everything about his play was immaculate, and top of that there was complete out-of-the-box strategy being implemented. Symbol's definitely gained a new fan today, I really hope he continues to play like this and wins the season; that game was leagues ahead of Nestea, Stephano or DRG (who I consider to be the best Zerg players). Disappointing to see Parting drop, but he won't be there for long. I think YuGiOh will be though, which is a shame really. But yeah, I can't even imagine myself playing as well as Symbol did in that game 1. I can't even grasp the mere concept of how good he is, I think this could be the start of StarCraft 2's Flash. | ||

MKP vs PartinG didn't live up the hype though, all three games were short and lackluster. Im reallllllly confused by this. How EXACTLY did symbol play well vs partinG? he had an un-harassed 4 base economy ( super super standard and easy when the protoss is passive). Made banelings, made ultras and just killed partinGs army in both games (in game 2, the infestors with NP were entirely unnecessary though cool, he would have Crushed that army either way) ! Game was over in 10 seconds with one army clearly being 100x better than the other, though nothing happened in the game that warranted such a lead. Just Zerg mechanics, and thats a super boring game ive seen 100 times, regardless of what units he uses. | ||

The game was quite boring, but Symbol used an incredibly unique build with a composition that is rarely seen to just streamroll a top protoss like it was nothing. Entertaining? Not quite so much, but very impressive. | ||
