I think Ryung was struggling a little with zerg before but that was a few months ago so idk how he's doing now. Personally I went with TRUE and Dream because I think Dream has very good TvZ | ||

No terran will advance tomorrow Its a two terran and two zerg, group and Ryung + Dream are solid competitors, while their opposition isn't as strong, they dodged Life, Curious, DRG and Symbol. Both Ryung and Dream have a huge shot, if we are fortunate we might get both in GSL. | ||

So many of the Protoss TLers pan the games where Terrans lose as the Terran playing badly - without really explaining how. I think you raise some valid points - like sora's army positioning. For my part, I do focus on where the Terran Pros could have done better - like positioning vikings over dead-space, utilizing flanks instead of getting choked in with your whole army in an uncomfortable position,etc. | ||

Player base was smaller then it is now, information sharing wasn't as developed and the very way the game plays and functions is radically different. Yeah, couldn't agree more here, Macro mechanics in BW are also way more similar to each other without warp-in and inject... And with the frequent patching of SC2 in the past they already changed A LOT of things (quite a chunk of them unnecessary, I feel), so I think, there are certain aspects that need to be adressed and there's just no way of waiting until the game develops and players figure out stuff by themselves (I mean, look at TvP, what's left for Terran to check out?! Since 2010?!) | ||

If this stays that way, its going to be the most onesided matchup in the history of GSL. Worse than Z>P in GSL Open Season 2, T>P GSL Jan 2011, P>Z Jan 2011 (all breaking the 70%). And with only 3 Terrans in, I doubt that we will see so enough TvPs for those stats to change to less than 65%. | ||

I think the results are really unpredictable for tomorrow since we have mostly seen bio from those guys and they have to play a completely different style now | ||

I guess I didn't think about the changes in playstyle and some of these guys we haven't really seen too much since WCS ended last year | ||

Otherwise True/Hack looks like a safe bet Edit: Dream not Hack | ||

And yet Terrans only complain about one of these. Bias much. You're desperate, aren't you. TvZ is currently 10 v 11, so 48% with one game separating them. That's a bit different from the Furthermore, Supernova and Bbyong made it into Code S by beating zergs. While not a single terran who had to play against a P made it into Code S. While I don't think everything is alright in the TvZ MU after the WM nerf, this Code A does not show us that there's a problem. | ||

Dream is like a rollercoaster, he shows amazing games but then falls down again and stays basicly hidden for months. Then he is amazing again for a short period and falls down again.. I dont know what to expect from Dream, but i rememmber that he was pretty good at TvZ as you did aswell Oh and was it Dream or Hack that was so bad at TvT? One of them had like a 20% TvT winrate.. | ||
