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.

Here is another suggestion for how to tell when the game is unbalanced.

When 99.99% of the people that think the game is balanced is playing the same race.

So here is a tip for all terrans, bribe 3-4 protoss/zergs to your side and the game will be balanced x)

If Thorzain can't beat Killer after spending so much time playing HotS in Korea it would be rather disappointing. He hasn't played in Proleague since round 1 so I assume he was playing hots.


There's playing in Korea, and then there's playing in Korea.

No one knows what Thorzain was doing with his time, but there's no cause to think he was practicing in a way that leads to vastly improved play.

Nope, Polt's 2/2 didn't finish when Creator pushed into Polt's fourth.

Didn't Thorzain play almost nothing but HotS for months lol?


Playing is not training

It...it kind of is.


Actually, they are two different things.

Playing on the ladder/stream isn't "training" per se in terms of professional sc2 players.

From what I've heard when I've talked to people like Pokebunny, the HotS beta GM ladder was extremely competitive. Also, most people on Korean teams won't have been properly training as they would have had to split their time between GSL/Proleague and HotS.

Bio game 1 and 2, destroyed Bly then lost game 3 as a really nice mech play, because he never got turrets at his mineral lines so burrowed infestors kept killing his workers as he moved out.

A lot of players (both Korean and foreign) use ladder as their main source of practice, though.

Zerg just outplayed their opponent and won, must be imba!


so youre that guy that claimed Broodlord-Infestor wasn't imba in WoL because it was possible to losing a game? Don't be so stupid. Medivac speed boost is WRECKING protoss and zerg. The games are fun to watch though.

Fun fact: When Terran is op then sc2 becomes fun to watch.

6 P, 3 Z, one T in Korean top 10 on ladder. Top 2 are P. Only 2 T in top 15. Everything is still being adjusted to. We don't know what's what.

You can say, "Well, are the T's are at this tournament." That's fine. What will you say when a T doesn't win this tournament (my prediction)?

Too early to complain about balance.
