Personally I just find Terran games more interesting to watch, and I imagine this is often the same for Protoss players watching Protoss games and Zerg players watching Zerg games. I enjoy watching the other match-ups too, but when there's so many of them I get pretty bored before too long.

Wow, took me until now to realize that this is the first and only TvT of a 4 day tournament

lol.


Yeah, Terran were the least represented race to begin with, and they were spread between all the groups. Then when about half of them made it through, it was very unlikely that all of them would be put into the same group, which would be the only way there would be more than one.

It's honestly not surprising.

agreed.

do you find it weird that some people will only watch sports when their favorite athlete or team is playing? Its perfectly normal. For the rest of this tournament there is no more TvT, TvP or TvZ. Thats a big disappointment to a lot of people and rightfully so.

Yep, I do. I watched the Euro football finals although Germany went out. Don't get why people like football would not.


Football is always a mirror though.

So now that winning with zerg isn't a challenge anymore, will you switch back to terran? +trollface+

He just fucking won GSL 3 weeks ago.. -_-


I mean I want him to start looking impressive again, he didn't look as impressive in GSL and in HSC. When I see MVP in a tourney I want to know that he has the highest chance of winning it, but I just don't get that anymore from him. I want to be impressed by my favorite player again... -.-

in MLG or Dreamhack i can understand it *a bit* ...

but in HSC especially? i mean, come on lol


To be fair, PvP, PvZ and ZvZ are probably the three worst match ups to watch.


I think the new TvZ is worse than those but its all opinionated



In general the Zerg MU's aren't fun. Mirror probably is the best of the Zerg MU's the rest just is i'm gonna build my Infestors/Broodlord army and crush face . In PvZ with the turteling its even worse then TvZ . Building 20 Spines and sitting on your ass for your opponent to attack you...

why? what does this even mean? You realize he just won a GSL championship like a month ago and has been playing really well? He's usually not as invincible when he travels overseas for LANs, though he has won several like Blizzcon, WCG, MLG, etc

Yeah but wasnt his MLG when it was all foreigners and like 4 koreans though? He's only been relevant for one tournament this year and that was the last GSL, which he got a lot of bracket luck in.

Personally I'm just looking forward to it. Glad he's out. The way he's been playing he's nowhere near deserving of an advancement anyway.

2 Months ago. I get your point, but still, MVP has been in a slump atm. He was Last in his group (ro16), with only 1 zerg that was dropped aswell.

You still prefer TvZ over ZvZ?

If so, you are a masochist!

different strokes for different folks.

i play terran myself and will continue watching, but it is disappointing i wont see any more terrans play. and considering how tournaments have been going lately, its getting old fast with the Terran struggles.

let me just say that i feel sorry for everyone who really isnt going to watch anymore. because the stuff that has happened outside of the games has been about 90% of the fun for me, its f***ing HSC, that's what it's (almost) all about.
what if Nat Pagle and RNGesus are the same person?
