Balance whine, and any other behavior unacceptable in a LR thread will be harshly moderated.

Creator PvT is somehow ... just awful or have Polt and bomber done TvP too good ? but watching Polt vs Creator made me feel like Creator wanted to throw game away

Creator probably has the best PvT, it seems most Protoss struggle with aggressive mid-game Terran play now days which Polt is really good at though.

Classic!

The race I least want to see in any matchup

Am I the only one who's literally forcing myself to stay unbiased?
I've always preferred playing Random (albeit Toss slightly more perhaps) to experience everything evenly, and gone in with the mindset that the game is never imbalanced, it's always the players' fault, not the game. I don't care if it's true or not, but all I care about is the viewing experience, and it just sounds so abysmal reading so many angry comments about balance all the time, I couldn't care less tbh, all I want is entertaining games. If balance issues are hindering entertainment, that's one reason (also why 1/1/1 is the only build I've ever spoken out against), but other than that, from a spectator's point of view, I just think (racial) bias is terrible for yourself, cheering for specific players is probably a good thing though as it actually makes it interesting without causing rage (although perhaps grief on rare occasions).


Agreed. I have always cheered for players over races. It bums me out how the community has scapegoated Zergs though. I'd like to see some major changes to the game to improve how good the games look (aoe units mostly, they suck) but it is probably never going to happen. I wish people would just enjoy the games and move on from the balance whine until Blizzard does something (or not).

As long as I see Polt defeat Leenock, I'm happy honestly. I do expect Leenock to win though, but hopefully Polt can be the Terran hope for the tournament.

with the foreigner line-up at IPL, it was looking hopeful that we could have a few in the top 8. I can't honestly think of a better foreign line-up than the one at IPL. We had Nerchio, Stephano, VortiX, Scarlett, Snute, LucifroN, Naniwa, and the recently on the rise HuK. Only Snute and HuK really managed to do any damage, and still fell short of top 8 v.v

Yeah, with that foreigner line-up we can have hopes at a normal event but IPL5 is so crazy stacked with top koreans... I mean people like TaeJa, MC and HyuN are already out.

Rooting for Bomber, Polt, and TheSTC to pull some upsets. Should be fun, I've really enjoyed the whole tournament so far.

The thing that boggles my mind is that out of that line-up, snute and HuK were our foreign hopes o.o
