As usual, don't player bash, don't flame, and don't balance whine. Failure to heed this warning will have consequences.

User was warned for this post

qxc speaks the truth. he speaks for the general public and most terrans. nobody can have control like Mvp where he can make ravens look so viable. Mvp was on another level with ghosts before the nerf as well. you think that just because mvp builds ravens its automatically viable? there are so many steps and procedures he takes to actually get to that point. you are a fucking idiot and i hate people like you.

But he was right, his multitasking was so standard on Atlantis.

he was right too when he said that mvp was terrible outside GSL ? I mean, waxangel didn't even think mvp would get out of the open bracket so pretty sure he's got something against him.

Yeh it's pretty funny tbh. Such average multitasking that every Korean terran could pull off is what we've witnessed today.

Zergs don't micro a shit. You barely see any flanks, not even talking about unit splitting O_o


Only the highend micro, and KeSPA players seem to micro. DRG, Stephano (as much as I dislike him), Nestea when he doesn't hate kittens, Symbol.

I'm pretty sure Nerchio isn't owning Mvp like Wax kept saying

I was being sarcastic.

Typical.


Do you have any objections to the ranking given to those players? I guess Nerchio is debatable? Because you are watching the best player in SC2 history hands down.

Especially MVP is debatable imo.
He is historically the best sc2 player yes, but atm? Dunno, he has had a lot of health issues and he is not as ahead of the other players as he once was.


I am sorry but the initial post you objected to stated unequivocally that Mvp was the 'best SC2 player in history'. You say this is debatable but that he is historically the best SC2 player?

I must say that this have been the most successfull IEM turnament so far, its just been all around good. Good commentating, good scheduling, no big problems, not too much wait inbetween matches, good turnament format, great games. Only think i dont like is the super akward host, he's pretty fail :-/

And i think its showing in the impressive viewer numbers, cant remember a IEM turnament having this many viewers for a loooong time. And its even crazy good weather in most of europe right now. But i guess SC2 > Sun :D

Maybe the Raven buff will help Terran out late game after all

Meh, it's just a speed buff.


Speed buff only helps a tiny amount, but I agree. It's meh and doesn't address the issue. Ravens are basically floating detectors until they eventually get enough energy to cast a missle. Makes their relative cost (not even including upgrades), hardly worth enough unless the Terran is very rich on a macro map like Atlantis or Metro. Try pulling this on possibly a smaller map like Ohana or Daybreak, probably not as easy.

Mmm. But it has been seen that proper amount of ravens and vikings obliterate any air flock. It usually comes down to micro.

I am watching the accomplishments of a player getting belittled by the biggest foreigner-bashing balance-whiner of the forum only because he's foreigner and zerg.


Nerchio's accomplishments are quite marginal compared to MVP. That isn't belittling it is just a fact

This match has nothing to do with Balance.,

This is MVP. You are watching one of the Best plauers in the world

And that is the only place where balance should matter. and so far, it seems balanced.


Not exactly because what he can do 99.99% of players cannot. Balance can't even be generalized from the best player in the world.

It's a dumb statement anyway, QXC never balance whines because he doesn't feel like he's on a level where he is allowed to.

Because Stephano definitely would not lose vs Mvp, right? >_<

I have no idea, I was commenting on lategame management of Nerchio compared to Stephano. Nerchio seems to be better at holding all-ins than Stephano, but his maxed army, lategame play is lacking compared to Stephano. Plus Stephano's decision making is also somewhat better.

How so? Nerchio is also a top player obviously. MVP has used Raven's quite effictively over and over. Balance should be judged by the best players is the point, not guys who never win anything. Players who can't win any tournaments anyway calling units useless is misleading.
