It seems the only thing that really matters in regards to balance/manners/BM is if the person says something you like. Then it's all graaaavy baby. nah complaining is just cool now

Effectively turning TvZ into a professional Tower defence game :D Personally I'm all for this change as I am very good at Tower defence games xD Get at me SKT I'll win you a PL xD I challenge you at Field Runner

Fungal me this, fungal me that. Fuck it. I've never played a moba game before, but I'm considering giving it a shot at this point. I just can't believe how bad SC2 has become.

Way to take things out of context. Even foreign balance whine vs. Zerg (esp Infestor) has a lot of traction. It's not just the korean's complaints who people are cheering about. A lot of the HOTS talk recently that got tons of community support was started by foreigners as well.

shit happens, I guess. he's always been known for his TvT, but he's probably got the best TvZ in the world right now. doesn't mean they should hand him the trophy for free.

ZvZ is much more fun now in SC2 for spectators.
ZvZ in BW wouldn't be half as interesting to them, lol.

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. Interesting point, one I've considered actually
BW - Mechanically harder than SC2, but yet players had periods of real dominance. WC3- Mechanically easier than SC2, but yet had players have periods of real dominance.
I still feel that SC2's 'randomness' is overstated, in that top Koreans may lose to players worse than them, but overall will have pretty high winrates.
Basically SC2 still rewards the better players more often than not, but perhaps not quite as much as people would like.

It's a slippery slope. He should probably be punished, or at least his team should demand him offer an apology.

Fungal me this, fungal me that. Fuck it. I've never played a moba game before, but I'm considering giving it a shot at this point. I just can't believe how bad SC2 has become. May be we can go back and watch good old GSL games. At least me watching MMA vs MVP vs DRG were so much more fun and epic than now.
