The crowd want to see Hyun win....Sniper has a new target :D

... Sniper could possibly become more loathed than Hongun when he beat MC with only 4gates last year.

I wanted Ryung to win but I'm not heartbroken over Sniper advancing. I actually feel bad for him because he is going to get nothing but derision from the online communities here and in korea and it has to hurt his morale to know people don't want him to win

Why do Tastosis just ignore that balance-complaint?

Seems insane not to at least jest about it.

Because it's garbage that doesn't deserve attention.


Says the zerg

2-3 score = imba?

You know, almost every MLG interview, even with zergs, have stated that Infestors in general are a big problem. See some of DRG's interviews from WCS also.

Most probably agree.. but thats not the reason for EVERY single zerg win...and EVERY single zergwin is followed by a buttload of TL balance whine.. its just pathetic.


There were plenty of Zerg tears a back in the GomTvT days.. . People are always going to balance whine.


And I hate that whine just as much.... Ive never ever seen a single balancewhine in an LR thread as constructive.


But it is going to happen regardless of you liking it or not. As for being constructive, we will never know how much 'balance whine' affect Blizzard's balancing process. Of course, they will not take all the whining seriously. But to think they don't get affected by it is not realistic. Why do you think infestors are being looked at?

This guy has brought up some good points, you should all give it a read.


when a unit dies of fungal/while fungaled it becomes an infested terran -> this change makes perfect sense and would solve a lot of balance issues in the game.

no, it'll be infinite line of armies from Zerg and also that's not including fast lings and reinforcement

Oh come on at least HongUn was notorious for going a build that required micro.

I note that in comparison to BitByBit and I dont remember much of TheBest except horrid banshee control so it was hard to hate him for that.

Comparing BW to SC2 - SC2 is a game where one mistake or one out of position can cost you the game.

In BW, that usually wasn't the case. BW and WC3 are more gradual games rather than one mistake costs you the game (knife's edge game).

Infestor would not be "IMBA" in BW settings. GAME DESIGN PROBLEM!

Also bring back the REAVER! BEST UNIT IN STARCRAFT!

Not whining about Zerg. Whining that there isn't an SC2 bonjwa yet.

...which have already been exercised and promptly ignored/undervalued, which is why players are now resorting to the stupider ways as well.

This is pretty accurate unfortunately. That -10hp on infestor egg patch is a joke. X_X

Why did he go imba imba imba when he never lost a game from brood infestor. There were no super late-game walkovers.

There are more things that can be imba than BL/infestor y'know

lol so is everything zerg has imba now? Just delete the race if you feel that bad about it

You know, that's funny because there are some people who believe that it's not the infestors, nor the broodlords, who are imba, but rather than that, the design of Zerg macro mechanics, aka the ability to quickly tech switch.


Fuck you mean what zergs have been doing since broodwar? Tech switching? Holy hell!


You forgot the part where Zerg also needs to constantly have more bases, creep has no speed bonus, and has no spell more powerful than Psy Storm and ensnare combined.

there are plenty of stupid people who will applaud anything. that's a terrible metric for whether or not something should be done, and it's the reason there are things like "rules" and "laws" and "standards of behavior" in general. it doesn't make ryung a terrible person, but it was a dumb thing to do. ryung was the beneficiary of plenty of GomTvT seasons.
