The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained. |

Business was always the most important part of esports.
Well I mean there was the time when esports wasnt sustainable. That was a good time. I wasnt there though because I didnt know about it.

I'm a Sen fan but that's not going to happen. Besides which, Sen is getting old and thinking of retiring.

Protoss players build too many stalkers atm Well off the few games I've seen from Rain, he seems to doing some earlier SG play. Creator on the other hand is basically playing WOL + MsC, way too predictable.

Thorzain needs to move out.

You may be a bit biased here.... I couldn't possibly see why. Wait, you're not Fionn! TL writer hivemind. They are all the same. and all bad at predictions We need a writer bot (I can't believe i missed the oppurtunity to make a 3k blog; oh well - I guess I'll wait for 4k) My 3k post was pretty bad. So was my 2k for that matter. We should collaborate for 4k ^^ I reckon I'll get there long before you, though + Show Spoiler +Can we get there before April 1? + Show Spoiler +I hope no one is smart enough to open the spoilers and work out what we mean

Blah, didn't like that timing attack by Polt.

Yep, and there would be no more Foreign SC2 tournaments like MLG, NASL.
Well, not entirely true. If they could still get high viewer numbers and lots of spectators nothing would change, they could still fly in the good players from Korea and hold an event. It just depends on if the fans will accept that.

Don't come in here with your "logic" and "sarcasm". Right. Facts are imba please don't use them in balance discussions Surely people aren't trying to use an LR thread for balance discussions? I hope not. IT'S AGAINST THE RULES! RRRRRRRRRUUUURRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUS+ Show Spoiler + What did I just watch >.> Anime with Powerpuff girls animation. The plot is a more mature version of it. (i think)
Oooooh yeah, Powerpuff girls!!!

As much as I agree with this general view, SuperNova Lucky played out the exact same way, at 18 minutes SuperNova had 3 pfs up lining the map from his 5th...thats right 5th, to his 4th. Pressured lucky with hellions to deny creep spread and began building his raven count.
ThorZaIN never got a 5th, let creep get way the fuck out of control, didn't keep his ravens out of range of the vipers, and lost endless viking to hydras.

Protoss players build too many stalkers atm You seem to know exactly what these professional Protoss players who spend every awake minute on this game have to do, that's pretty interesting. What's your level, just for reference ^_^?

Fun game between ThorZaiN and Killer. Looks like they will mine out the map.

Nice defense by Creator, well placed/timed time warp.
