Even if the MU is balanced, as in each opponent had 50% chance to win, it's still god damn boring to watch. Yeah, and meanwhile threads about the widow mine come up and whine about the medivacs is everywhere. Come on when terrans started to do well at the very start of HotS, we told whiners to suck it for ages because a few games aren't proof of anything. These are a few games too. We can't draw anymore conclusions from them as we could at start of HotS.
what tournaments did terran dominate at the start of hots?

Any information regarding HerO-Zenio?
Only that the game started without Nathanias being invited to it. And that's about 15 minutes ago, at least.
If someone could log on EU and check HerO's or Zenio's match history, that would be great.

Well the foreigners is doing really well. But not really surprising since its in Europe and pretty much all the best foreigners is here. But what happen to lucifron?

And to counter-point, Leenock got his ass kicked at the only weekend LAN of HotS he went to. I have no problem with someone saying they would have ranked Leenock over Polt coming into the tournament, but it's silly to see Polt have a few bad games and people treating him like he shouldn't have been ranked in the top twenty.
but he lost to Lord INnoVation, the Flash of SC2, the greatest terran to ever walk the face of the sc2 earth, #1 TvZ, godsend of STX SouL I bet Symbol will kick his ass again if they meet. Not going to happen. Bogus has played SC2 for more than 3 months now. 
oh, you people

Is this like the best day for foreigners in a major tournament in like a really really really long time? Why? This is the best of Europe and the only top Koreans here are Polt, MC, Gumi, Leenock, Hyun, I guess Hero, and a couple others are around there. MC getting knocked out early unfortunately hasn't been a big deal lately, and Polt is the only real upset along with Hero, who isn't too hot lately either.
MC is out aswell

Flash only lost 4-2 to Life. That's domination right there 
In all seriousness, people looked at Yoda tearing through IEM and forgot that it was a new game

I'm really pleased to see CoCa & Puzzle both make it into the RO16. Now I just hope in the following days we get equally good news about CoCa finding a team as we got about Puzzle.
