Absolutely. TvT was insane, PvP was in a brief period of awesomeness where it wasn't 4gate or war of the worlds every game thanks to guys like Hero, PvZ the archon toilet was just starting to be SUCH a staple of it. TvZ actually was exciting the entire way along rather than now where it sees about as little action as early game PvZ. It was fantastic.
I have some faith tho, ZvZ is great now, though TvT is usually just Marine + Tank, PvZ we're starting to see carriers which is nice and PvP is starting to show signs of life beyond War of the Worlds
Disagree, imo all matchups have improved (ZvZ the most) apart from ZvT arguably, thats the only shaky one. The problem is that Terran's are doing worse, and they have 2 of the best matchups, so everything looks worse when the actual individual games are getting better imo.
The only time TvT wasn't predominately marine tank was before the BFH nerf where everyone went mech. And those games were miserable to watch. And back then PvZ may have not had the mothership as often but you rarely rarely saw non-2 base all ins.
Every single matchup has started getting longer and more intricate which I think is more interesting. Except PvP.
Do you even watch Starcraft 2? PvP has been the mirror that has probably developed the most. It hasnt been 4gate vs 4gate for a long time, and I see more lategame PvP now more than ever!

who else would they send...
The fact they sent JYP now instead of the two chances for EG to send puma and thorzain against maru and byun.

What happened TZAIN vs BBoong?
Tal Darim Tzain goes for Double proxy barracks in center, gets scouted only makes one, B4 responds with speedlings, Tzain tries to expand with one bunker up front, lings get in and speed finishes, GG

He means they should have sent JYP earlier to snipe Bboong and then have two great TvTers left.

faking demuslim out to make 8 vikings with a single non range coloss while going into zealot/archon/templar but then waiting until demuslim gets over 20 ghosts and dies to them.... he had quite the advantage in that game for a long time, but never really turned on the pressure onto demuslim which eventually got the perfect counter composition.... this game was quite the disappointment of the night so far, with creator playing so dumb.... -_-
Who's terrible idea was it to send two Terrans in to try and take out BboongBboong? Everyone knew he was going to smash them both, everyone but their coach I guess.

thorzain tried to go proxy 2 rax in center of taldarim. bboongbboong scouted immediately by scouting cross position first. he responded by going pool first with gas and thorzain transitioned into 1 rax CC after getting two marines out. He tried to start a wall at his natural but lings got through and kept killing scvs and avoiding marines. Once speed finished, tzain had no marine production and just gg'd without a wall off at main or natural
