Well Snusmumriken finally got permabanned, so there's a silver lining.

Some ppl love their favorite players and not SC2, blizzard or TL. You know what im saying? They are called fans and will go bananas when their player loses. That what sports and fans are about. Do you want esport to be like a match at old trafford?

do soccer fans bash soccer? haha genuinely curious


no.

The whine against terran is a joke. The whine against protoss has been malicious and widespread all day.


You should have been here at the beginning of SC2, all the Hate was Focused at Terran... Then it was Zerg... Welcome to being a winning race.


Yeah, except the big difference is that, Protoss 'imbalance' are almost all map-related, whereas that wasn't the case with Zerg or Terran.


Terran imbalance was all about the small maps... that made 1/2 base play unstoppable.


I know right, so many people seem to forget that at the height of the 111 we had maps like Metalopolis, Xel'Naga Caverns and fucking Dual Sight in the tournament pools.


I still love maps such as Metalopolis and Shakuras :<

I don't care who wins this, IfPolt wins, he takes his Sixth championship, If hero wins he takes his fifth and first in almost a year.

Me too. Well I love Polt and love rooting against Hero, but that's irrelevant. I'm just glad we've had mostly great games and Polt ran the gauntlet of top Korean Protosses.

I don't think its that uncommon, but a LR thread can sure make you feel like it is.

It only got truly malicious when Jaedong lost, as has every LR where Jaedong ever got knocked out.


The Stephano and Idra fanboys of old are now Jaedong fan boys.

I'm convinced they are all the same people, the worst of the balance whiners.


It's hard to balance whine when you play Protoss though.


O rly?

Have you not seen the Sad Zealot Fan Club?

well it was fairly legit for its time

I remember when Ghosts were crazy OP and people were complaining about Marauders. Then 2012 was year of the Zerg and ZvZvZvZ every single tournament in the ladder half of the year after the queen buff, now Hots comes out and Toss is suddenly OP

Fans of anything else don't hate the game that their favorite player/team/etc. is playing


Esport fans do.

Only blink is map related. Having a lot of options, all of which are very hard to scout + good transitions out of those options has nothing to do with maps.


Having a lot of options isn't "imbalance" it's fucking good design. We shouldn't be bitching about a race having a lot of options, we should be bitching that the other races don't have as many. Those are 2 very different things.
There are things known, and things unknown, and in-between are the doors.

Don't worry guys LR threads for any other sporting event are the same. Even ones just for one team are intolerable. Think of this thread as mashing all opposing fans together and making them hear everything the other side is saying. Not very surprising what it turns into most of the time.
