"With NO Terran" should be in the title.

Seriously though, why is there no terran? Every other tournament has no terran, and in this showmatch its all zerg and protoss.

Definately won't be watching. HF P and Z, you're having too much lately xD

Could these 3 games take an entire day? Between a Firecake Mana rematch and the swarmhost lovers that are Stephano and Snute, they could make a record for 3 BO3 casted! Could this be an appeal to Blizzard in order to change the ZvP meta?

the latest test map was supposed to be addressed majorly to tvp .. and yeah not watching this too .. i personally am not a big fan of TvT but nowadays i am craving for one. Lol

Good Idea, but no TvP is silly.

There are so many changes to the TvP MU, with the WM change especially tailored to the TvP MU, and yet the showmatch includes no terrans... I just do not understand it. And I cannot imagine them not realizing this problem themselves, yet there's no mention of their reasoning.

I see some people ( mostly only Terrans) are raising concerns regarding why the 3 matchups do not include any T. I'll explain that in the broadcast on Sunday.

I'm guessing you could have another day of different matchups, with each dedicated to a certain one for more in depth analysis ? That's my guess.

They probably couldn't get any Terrans to compete for sunday or maybe they are doing a 2 part special with just TvP for the 2nd half OR they don't want to play with fire (Yet they have firecake ) and don't want to cause any contreversy.

Pretty sure the idea is to see PvZ match ups.

Most changes are targeted for TvP so it would only make sense if we had at least one TvP matchup...

You'd think 3 pages isn't a whole lot to read before making a post, especially when most posts are fairly short...

Also remember the blink cooldown change isn't supposed to make it into next patch if we believe the balance test post, so the test map isn't what TvP will look like either.
