I'm not hating this so far. I'm not enjoying those matches. Ever since the the last few months of WoL, SC2 was simply boring to watch. ZvP Metagame? Go 2base before zerg can reach BL/Winfestor. Let the game be decided (in case of late game) by splitting air units vs. vortex. ZvT Metagame? Kill zerg before he can reach BL/Winfestor. Go Mass Raven in Case. Let the game be decided by splitting air units. PvT Metagame? Either go Blink allin, or go Colossi->Templar and switch it around vs vikings and ghosts. PvP Metagame? 1base until Min 8, then go 3base and have one culminating fight. TvT Metagame? Mech vs Bio or Bio on Bio or Biomech on Biomech - that was actually interesting to watch! ZvZ Metagame? Ling/Bling into Roach/Hydra/Infestor into casual BL/Winfestor .... What now? ZvP Metagame didn't change too much. It's now swarm hosts instead of broodlords. ZvT Metagame didn't change too much. It's now lot's of mutas and sometimes roach/hydra. PvT Metagame didn't change at all, except stargate allins stronger than robo allins. PvP Metagame didn't change at all. TvT Metagame didn't change except for hellbats. Or well, you could call that a big change. ZvZ Metagame didn't change too much. It's now swarm hosts instead/before broodlords. ... So, give me one more reason to find any matchup except TvZ or TvT interesting. The one and only match I have seen in HotS that was really fun to watch and simply great and WP'ed was Life vs. Sjow yesterday, G3. Lol, I can tell that you have absolutely ZERO idea of what is going on with SC2. If you don't like it, don't watch; but don't come into the thread for a game you hate and act like you have ANY IDEA about what's occuring or what's different than at the end of the last expansion. The game is COMPLETELY different than WOL, and in fact is COMPLETELY different than the beginning of HOTS just three months ago. I like it, and I do watch pretty much. I'm playing masters on ladder, so I guess my game knowledge can't be that bad. If you think it's "COMPLETELY different than WOL", and that I do not have "ANY IDEA", then please, show me why. If I make a bad point, I can always say "oh well, I'm wrong". So, show me! If you think the PvP metagame hasn't changed since WoL you're clueless. The others are all way oversimplified/wrong too. Goes to show masters doesn't mean you understand/follow the game. Show me a change in metagame and I'll instantly apologize. Just show me. 1 gate expand is viable, void ray comps are far more common. There's a variety of rushes/builds based around the mocore and nexus cannon now (or scouting with it and recalling). Stargate openers are very common and the oracle is useful as an emergency detection option. DT expand is also more viable with the cheaper shrine. Scouting's far more important because death ball compositions vary so much (tempest/immortal/void/archon) and 1 gate expo with sentries benefits from the free hallucinate. Storm has even become a standard response to mass void.

You're telling me skytoss is meta game in PvP? Okay, then there should be some replays and some kind of standard BO for that. Show me? Phoenix battles for part of PvP meta before HotS.
1 gate expand is viable, void ray comps are far more common. There's a variety of rushes/builds around the mocore and nexus cannon now (or scouting with it and recalling). Stargate openers are very common and the oracle is useful as an emergency detection option. DT expand is also more viable with the cheaper shrine.

It's one thing to call something viable, but that does not mean it's part of the meta game. Stargate openers were part of the metagame back in WoL, though you're right in that points, they weren't used that often as now in HotS. I could discuss about the details now, but I should accept that the metagame in PvP changed regarding BOs. But still, I'm saying that PvP basically still is in like 70-80% of the games 1base to min 8, then go 3base, and culminate in one big fight. You can't deny that.

DownTime QuestionTime :3 Basically the same music except until as late as you want (7 AM isn't rare to leave...), and they do throw in Kpop in there occasionally sure, of course. Largely western style in my experience, though. Oooo nice nice. Is it a big thing to do like it is in the western world to go "clubbing" and such? Not like i think there all strict and what not, but i just didn't see it mixing well culture wise to the younger sort of age group if they have so much pressure to study etc Wild Tastosis appear on GOM stream in front of DJ Yeah, Hongdae is like a 24/7 roskilde, or Sziget, or primavera. Also, they do it even better because they eat a lot of stuff so you get drunk much later on. I like to go out with Korean people they are the most likeable, social, and open minded crazy bunch I've ever lvied with. (Maybe just compared with the way we drank in Finland.) My friends who go to Roskilde only bitch about the thing that is.... the naughtiness and smell. It's disgusting... It is not like that right? If so, sounds like a fucking great area to live in when you are studying etc. Korea is pretty dirty in general. A few years back they removed many bins from the streets, to prevent people putting their shit next to them -- so now people just drop it away more randomly :D (I really love this story, have never factchecked it tho) It's not smelly because people are dressed and are not "off" or on holiday, as you'd be on a festival. But there's some smells from all the waste, especially in hot weather, like we have now. Not a big matter tho, you arent spending that much time on the street - and even if you do (checking out all the young singer songwriters singing on the streets around is pretty cool with some beers/ice cream, dont think its unbearable. Naples is a lot worse, at least it was the last time I was there. Yeah, Seoul is definitely one of the best places I've ever been to, really cheap and affordable too, topping many other great cities of the world. (I like travelling.) Thanks for the insight! I'll probably be going next year, either for summer school at Ajou or to watch a finals. This just strengthens my interest level and makes studying in Norway even less interesting...

That guy arguing about the PvP metagame is either trolling or just plain ignorant, just ignore him please.
