ROFL! This drawing is hilarious. This is why you do it before the final game or final match or something. Not when half the audience is gone because the games are done. I'm sure the people who stuck around like the better odds though.

The zerg skillset is just not as visually obvious as the terrans is. you dont do fancy micro as zerg but the base mechanichs must be ridicolously good to get to that level. its not a-move... gah, im so tired of all the whiners.. you're the guys that truly are ruining e-sports.


I play random. My w/l with the 3 races are:

Terran: 33%
Protoss: 55%
Zerg: 80%

wow... Amazing decisive proof..

Since our win rates mean stuff my ZvZ is 70% right now while I barely ever beat Protoss...

Haha, well played. I sadly can't play Zerg to go and raceswitch and then claim they're easier because my hotkey layout would have to be completely re-worked

It's amazing how fast the community changes. When foreigners express problems with the game or "balance whine" they are maligned and hated by the community. They are called complainers/whiners and their opinions are disregarded. I remember Grubby gave a speech on why he doesn't talk about balance and people lauded him for it. When Koreans do the same thing, its cool?

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.

They are generally maligned with comments of, "Maybe you should try being a better player!" Who can honestly say that about Ryung, a definitively top Code S Terran? Ryung has proved before that he can compete with the best and beat the best, as have many other top Koreans. If they complain about balance, whether in interview or with rage (like tonight), it's much harder to criticize than when Avilo or Idra does it.

9) There should be no communication between the players other than ‘GG’, ‘gg’, ‘ㅎㅎ’,'ㅈㅈ' and etc to surrender the game.


Hope nothing will come of this though. I like Ryung

Technically, IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA isn't Ryung communicating with Sniper. So no problem.


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

If any apologies are to be issued, it should be Blizzard offering one to the community and all pro players for the mess they've created and are repeatedly refusing to address. Even without considering balance, ZvX is horrifyingly dull for a spectator.

Sigh. I hope that one day Starcraft 2 entertains me again. The first time I've ever rathered watching LOL than SC2.

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.


I agree. Watching guys like MMA, MVP, DRG, Nestea, MC duke it out throughout 2011 was pretty awesome and epic. Sure we had those days of GomTvT, and the terror of the 1-1-1, but in the end, I felt that games back then were pretty interesting and fun.

Nowadays, I just feel passion-drained about SC2.

In response to people comparing gameplay in 2 types of genres in the first place, threatening to move to LoL, etc.

I think perhaps Terran could get a major disabling ability too, so it's not just force fields and fungals that people complain about. MOBAs are full of disabling abilities, because it's actually fun to use them.

So true. :>

I still have a place in my heart for it, but showing any guy unfamiliar with it and they'd probably cringe because every little thing counts.
