I think the problem is more with the maps now. Some of the maps still have too big of an area to blink and widow mines cannot cover them all.

Even in the initial interview carmac said, that it would be allowed and may happen

It's not taste if the only players agreeing with you are protoss players.

If he can't hold blink you may be right, but hoping for less blink games :/

Looks like both Hyun and San are behind Taeja. Go go Taeja!

I feel like I have to apologize to Darkhorse, I thought it was common sense that "you're wrong for liking X" was a stupid sentence to write, from reading this thread it appears not to be.

Too bad the mapmaking scene kind of died out. They only come out for TLMC contests now.

both sOs and herO have legit shots at winning IEM + GSL meaning they could make $165k in the next month if things go their way

Even cs:go have almost double the viewers. ESL will probably have to think soon if it's even worth to keep sc2 on their big events.

TvT is so rare this year, such few games  Even when we had TvT more often, I always found it boring. I think watching stimmed bio just run around all over the map sniping stuff is silly, and tank lines are a snooze fest.
That isn't to say I don't acknowledge the intricacies of the matchup, and how positioning and such is so important, I just don't find it particularly interesting to watch. I feel like PvP is much more interesting from a viewer standpoint these days. It's only been recently that PvP has reached this level, though, so I can sort of understand if people are still in the old mindset of "lol PvP sux so much bro"
