EPTPeople throw the word "slump" around too much. Not playing up to expectations once or twice is not a slump... a slump is a prolonged period of time, but it seems like people are willing to throw the word out over a single tournament result these days.

Do you blame people lol ... zvp is fucking boring as hell, either some lame 2 base toss all in or horrible lategame broodlord infestor, neither of which is fun or exciting to watch and zvz is just as shit unless its top koreans playing who multi task everywhere, terran matchups are fun to watch no matter what race you are because theres so much action all the time | ||

And for HSC5 it doesn't seem to be good enough either. Maybe Taeja could have done better but I don't know. | ||

When protoss did bad, protoss players complained. Now that terran is doing bad, terrans will complained. It's a shame but that's how it goes. Shame about Mvp, tournament wont really be enjoyable tomorrow without any terrans. Still going to watch for MC and the banter though! | ||

Not really if you consider that he had the best seed and got to choose one of his opponents in the Ro32. If he didn't come out of a group with Line/Happy/Genius, he would have caught a shit storm of criticism. | ||
