Who is getting defensive about game design? I said it's stupid that you stop liking a player because his race is considered strong right now (races getting stronger isn't a players fault but the game designers). And if you don't think lower level protoss players are getting the backlash, you're way wrong. I play terran, but many of my friends who play protoss want to stop playing 1v1 because of how much rage they get because of their race. No one here was playing a victim, so dunno where you got that from.

Protoss players need to stop being so defensive when people criticize Blizzard's choice of design. Majority of TLers already consider only balance at the top as the most important. Majority of balance criticisms don't apply to you or any other Protoss players on TL. It's kind of annoying to see Protoss players jump to defend poor design and play the victim.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a game where they will not be judged by the design of their race but by the content of their play style.

Okay we've reached a really stupid point in the sc2 community if a player you used to cheer for you don't cheer for anymore because of his race.
