so at least you guys will have more players in the top 8 than Terran at that tournament if it makes you feel better


And Mvp is injured and is supposed to not play any SC2 to for 3 months to fully rest. If he drops out, then they'll probably just give it to MC.


3 months!? Source on that!?!? D=


Pretty sure the IM coach or someone said a while ago that Mvp to fully heal up he'd need to take three months off of not playing.



I thought Mvp said he wouldn't do it though because if he sat out for 3 months he would never catch up. or did he change his mind?


Yeah, true.

And I guess he has to play in Code A to qualify for Code S, so he'll probably play.

A short break won't hurt especially with HotS on the way.

Honestly now is as good as any time when your wrists are constantly flared up.

yeah. Now would pretty much be the best time to do it with a new expansion coming out in just over 3 months

MVP should take off when HoTS releases. Game is going to be volatile for awhile as new metagames are established may as well sit it out at the beginning.

Yeah it was impossible for polt to make ghosts in that game.

Not enough economy, no time, no Ghosts.


Im not talking about like 12 ghosts here, 3-4 could nullify that initial wave of infestors. I don't see how thats impossible at that stage of the game. You know zerg is gonna be making Infestors.

Was it also Dwf who said Polt didn't have the economy for ghosts on Daybreak when he was on 4 bases for quite a while? I honestly can't remember.


well it's kinda hard to EMP the infestors, as somebody pointed out before.


so it hard to emp infestors and shouldn't be tried? way to give zerg and easy way out


you must not watch a lot of games. they've tried, and failed.


failed so much that they got nerfed


huh? we're talking about post nerf amirite? or are we gonna just go back to whatever patch that is convenient for you?


just pointing out that b.c they where nerfed doesn't mean they aren't useful. infestors most likely be nerfed but they are not going to stop being used.


give them the ghost treatment: half dps on IT and fungals and you'll see if they're going to be mass

In the tournaments in which we actually have almost all the top Koreans participating, we're seeing Zerg dominate pretty hard.



I don't think people are actually using those tournaments when talking about balance. But at least having a Protoss win will decrease the complaints compare to Terrans.

You know, I wonder what would happen if Blizzard reverted the queen range change.
Or reverted fungal growth back to the long duration/low dps version.

It's interesting to think about things like that.

TB knows how to bring the hype. That's why he's so good with Apollo. Not to say Apollo isn't good at hype on his own... but it just works so well with TB.

That would probably be a good thing.

the sad marine fan club was closed the day it opened


How about the sad SCV? SCVs are inherently more likable. Marketing, guys, marketing. ; D


TL only promoted protoss qq. Tho they really needed it back then.


Honestly I think we still kind of do. One race is always going to be at the bottom, right? Heh...it's always been Protoss.


yup but you were really really low back then. The problem is that P are getting crushed in TvP nowadays and with the state of 3b/immo sentry vZ...


Yeah...man I remember when ghosts were giving us serious problems but I didn't want it to be so that we'd NEVER see them again...huuh.

And everyone is getting rolled over by infestors. I wish fungal slowed and didn't root. Problem solved no?


dunno it'd still kill marines but depending on the slow vikings might be useful. IT are a bigger problem imo they fuck mech so hard it's ain't funny.


Maybe a little less damage on IT? o-o


it depends, the problem is that the infestor is the key to the 3match ups so tweaking it might fuck one really bad. if it's ZvZ i don't really care but it might be bad from a spectator pov.


Well that's what we have test servers for! ^_^

No, they've said the opposite. They're going to keep watching WoL balance even after HotS is out/the main game.

That's exactly what I was thinking, though the fact that he'll likely play through the end of WoL at the very least makes my wrists hurt just thinking about it

you're talking about post nerf when no T really uses them anymore. so they aren't very useful in competitive games. i'm not sure what you're harping on really. might as well say that voids are useful and toss should use them more coz they used to be op before being nerfed -.-

Leenock playing will make this ZvZ tolerable at least because he is going to pull off some great multitasking and shenanigans at some point
E-Sports is competitive video gaming with a spectator fan base. Do not take the word "Sports" literally.
