Well LOL is only at about 90,000 + at the moment, so i guess its due to the wacky hours this is being played at


It's about 111,000 views now.


Yesterday SC2 had about 33% of LOL viewers. Today it was 25% and finally slightly below 20%.
I did not expect such low numbers for first HOTS tournament while beta is even closed.


Who gives a shit? Let's just enjoy our game and leave it at that.

stargate opening is just so much better in PvP than robo. I'm really surprised that some players still open robo.

I honestly would not read too much into the match up when it's two foreigners playing each others. Specially in PvP.

Robo is probably the safest opening in a PvP

It was a sentry, right? Tbh it gets done with forcefields a lot too. But I think the difference now is that you can pressure and do damage but not win or lose in such radical fashions as before what with the HMS and all.

I wonder if it was intentional that marine/tank should be stronger in TvZ in HotS....

I mean between the nerf to creep spread, and the buff to siege mode that is already big, but when you combine that with the fact that zergs need to get roaches up early on it just seems like its confusing the heck out of zerg players.

Zerg players will have to do different thing I guess. No more droning behind ling/festor in the midgame

Early terran pressure is very strong and much more varied however there is no way to say it is imbalanced at this point, the game is too new and not enough games have been played.

The way vortix defended was just incorrect, the heavy queen playstyle should filter out in favour of roach defence.


It's too soon to talk about balance, but nevertheless being force to go blindly into one particular tech path (roach, without being able to pressure with it) because of all the new threat does not make the game particulary interesting to be honest, if ling opening are no longer an option (or a very risky one) you limit the option which makes more boring game. That's why ZvP seems to be more fun right now, ling hydra/roach hydra/Mutalisk/swarmhost are all possible, and for protoss all tech route are viable so there is way more diversity.


But dear god, as a Zerg I'm so scared to see MechVP tomorrow. :D


Are you really expecting terrans to play mech in TvP ?


Well as MVP is the best Mech player in WoL and was already very successful with it against the best Zerg in the world, if he did practise HoTS it will be really scary tomorrow in TvZ . As for TvP meh I'll don't know, I really don't think it has been fully understood since there was almost 0 mech play in WoL TvP, Terran player are starting from scratch there. But if someone will show that mech is a viable/strong/(imba?) option in TvP, it will be MVP.
