Soccer, baseball, tennis, you name it. We might be too spoiled to complain about mirror. Just another perpective I wanted to throw in there. | ||

I don't think people are complaining about the fact that mirrors exist, but rather that they are bad in sc2. Well, ZvZ and PvP that is. Also your analogy makes no sense. | ||

And general consensus has been leaning towards z v z being nice to watch especially freaky's games. | ||

Every team in those sports have their own advantages, not only through play style, but through each players own capabilities and talents. Some teams might be fast, some with excellent shooters, some with awesome defense etc. though every team strives to be good at everything, balance is only made at the end of a season (the drafts). You try and say that the Spurs vs a team like the Heat is a mirror match and you've got yourself an incorrect statement sir. | ||

This is why I say protoss needs a huge overhaul. Warp in makes boring games. Buff gateway units, remove warp gate mechanic and instantly everything becomes nice to watch but nooooo.. blizzard wants their warpgate. sigh... I think warp gate should come some time after templar archive tech maybe. Then gateway units could get buffed because they won't be able to warp in next to your base within 7 minutes. Warpgate tech seems silly at cybernetics core. Seems similar as if zerg could build a nydus canal after spawning pool. This is all just in my lowly humble opinion! | ||

I know. I was wondering why Starcraft mirror is so bad compared to other "mirror" match-ups in the world. You know, soccer plays 11 vs 11, never 4 lings vs 1 zealot. I know it is not that simple, but having non-mirror as a sport (e-sport) is something special. Any constructive argument? | ||

Yeah, it has improved quite a lot since the early days where it was basically only about speedlings chasing each other for 10 minutes. I actually think PvP is kind of fun to watch, especially the early-mid games (where there are a lot of different builds). The fucked up part with PvP is the endgame, where there is only one start : have more colossi than the opponent. | ||

or so Blizzard thinks the issue with PvP is pretty obvious, but I think Seed vastly outplayed MC in the 4 games that he played. MC himself is known for proxying things (extremely evident in game 4 with the hidden main Pylon), yet he didn't even scout his own natural in game 2, if he forced a cancel on that Robotics he would have been way ahead, especially with DTs coming out. | ||

But Seed did what a lot of other challengers couldn't do. Win a big tournament. Now he just needs to play consistent and prove himself. | ||

We see a lot of variety in the late game these days with BLs/Ultras, Nydus networks, and drop play. TvT has always been exciting. PvP is just... ugh. zvz is even worse man | ||
