I heard msc vision range update was huge nerf to protoss and fixed the game already. So let's just enjoy the games.

He's been doing it forever and always been entertaining. Your hate blinds you, my son.


Again, entertaining for you. Opinions are not facts.


Sure, and I have a friend that thinks TvZ is the worst matchup in the game. Doesn't mean that people are going to stop saying TvZ is the most entertaining.


Well interesting that you bring that up. Because the way the "most interesting matchup" (TvZ) usually unfolds is through long macro games. Usually the player with better macro and mechanics wins. Other than that it is pretty straight forward and based mostly on skill, not sucker punch moves. Compare it to PvZ and PvT where cheese is much more common.

So if majority prefers games like TvZ (and based on the best games of 2013 thread, they do) I don't understand how they could enjoy sOs type of PvZ as well at the same time.Or how could they enjoy the way HerO played against Innovation at IEM.


TvZ is popular because it's tense the whole game and back and forth. sOs PvZ is very similar, everything balances on a hair's edge when he's cheesing you because if you screw up once you KNOW sOs is going to punish it.

Cheeses and all-ins aren't similar to back and forth games.... when you cheese/all-in you win or you get crushed, I barely see any cheese that goes back and forth except if the winning guy fucks up badly(like Jaedong at IEM against HerO).

Someone could also say that protoss has too many ways to open against T and Z and those aggressive openings also drastically limits what Z and T can do and almost always end up with toss being ahead.

This. You play safe? You're far behind. You play more aggressive? You get "punished". You try a greedy approach? You get "punished" too.

Typical frenchman. Loves a good wine.

Thanks for this really interesting post.

NO such thing as cheese, only strats. Cheese was invented by players who can only face a particular type of strat , an excuse (the word cheese) for not being able to face 'aggressive" strats.

Found the Protoss fanboy.


Found a player who cant face aggressive strats.

Lol. If protoss players could get "punished" the same way Zergs get punished they'll shut up.

With TvZ there's just much more of a 'fighting on equal ground' feeling than there is PvX, everything Protoss does is just perceived as abusive, if they gain an advantage with a push 9/10 they just straight up win no coming back, no sniping the reinforcements etc. sos his style is just perceived as less annoying since it's not standard P play and he's innovative. If his play was the standard it would get hated all the same

Ridiculous how warped your perspective on this game is.

Please educate me.

Saying aggressive openings "almost always" put toss ahead is bullshit. If it were true pro toss players must really suck for failing to convert so many leads.

The thing is that those builds limit what T and Z can do by only existing. Also MSC allows you to nexus first v Z against any builds. (see oracle v t for easy reference)
