"Mentally affected by the previous series"

And then Rachel chops his balls off right before the match -_-

This says more about WoL balance than HoTS imo.

Terrans have more freedom which is great and it also shows.


Zerg has less freedom which is bad and it also shows.

Not being able to go 3 base 70 drones behind pure queen and a handful of lings is bad? I beg to differ.

Lol . Stephano never did that in Wol and it didn't prevent him from taking series off MKP, MMA, Mvp, Lucifron and such .


when did Stephano took a game of the king ?


He beat him in Iron Squid easily.

Here we go again, Mvp nerfing terran all by himself.


not really lol, top10 gm in hots beta was like 7 terrans and every pro knows that changes are needed for zvt


even all pros in every interview say zerg is the weakest and terran the strongest. I dont see how anyone can deny it either...

I think it's entirely to early to really say anything yet. Zergs are still so used to the ez mode they had in WoL to be brutally honest. Give the top zergs some more time to work with the new units and changes. If in 1-2 months after release Zerg are getting stomped out, then call imba.

Players whining about balance and crying for blizzard to nerf/buff to early/quickly is what led WoL to it's troubles near the end. Give time for players to figure shit out and learn how to actually counter things before saying which race is weak and which isn't.


Still, besides Stephano (in zvp) no zerg said zerg was OP in wol, but now terrans are sayinng terran is OP already. But I agree that blizz should wait.

I think that just says more about the personalities of Zerg players against Terran players and less about balance

but in all seriousness. I do think that it LOOKS like terran is a touch stronger, but also I don't think Zergs are using their new units to the full potential yet either.


Yep pretty much this and ZvP looked so bad in wol and everyone lost hope and was just waiting for a nerf and then Stephano happened. Might be the same in hots in a few months.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Game isn't even fucking released and zergs are already crying. Come fucking on.

Zerg players are often retarded though. With many an honourable exception of course.

Terran 'tears' were due to an actual legitimately broken matchup (well, imo). The 'Sad Zealot' period was when Protoss WERE getting stomped by stupid T allins.

Zergs on the other hand, whine when they WERE underpowered, whine that their wins are unfairly demerited when they're overpowered, and whine at all times in between.

Looking forward to this match, not all that familiar with Dream. It is HoTS but did he have a signature style back in WoL?

After 6+ months of infestor/broodlord domination. Stephano hasn't broken 30 hours of playing yet. Especially not against the style Mvp was raping him with.

As protoss I gotta say I could probably win TvZ handily with 2 reaper opening and then pressure third with widow mines vs current standard zerg.

None of them have said it's broken.

They've said it's strong sure, but there's also been pros rightfully pointing out that zerg are a race about reacting to what your opponent is doing and as there's no set timings, there's nothing to react too currently.

Some Zerg posters are absolutely unbelievable with the nonsense they come out with.

Let the game SETTLE please. The end of WoL was ruined for me and many others because Zergs got patches/favourable map pools to fix the 'broken' race when they could have figured it out given a bit of time.

I just wish Blizzard would allow the game settle before they go and change anything.


I play terran but I honestly don't think the situation is comparable at all. In the beginning of wol we basically had close to no player who really knew how to play the game. The situation now is that sure, we have an expansion, but despite the casters claiming so its not a new game. Its just an expanded game. Hence it should be easier to see if theres an obvious imbalance fairly early on.

I think zerg probably will get better vs terran but that they will still be slightly at a disadvantage unless zerg is buffed a little or terran nerfed a little.

Lol, thanksfully everyone here can balance whine, or whine about balance whiners, all they want, I don't believe Blizzard will do anything drastic or even change anything at all for a while.

Does that justify it? I'd hope people would just move past it, at least somewhat. It's so fucking boring...
