Why don't you just make the argument that SC2 would be better off if terran was OP instead of hinting at it.

Not really. Real BW elitists look down upon SC2, Starbow, and League of Legends alike.

There would be more people watching, but you need to provide a written testimony that you have been following BW since at the very latest 2005 in order to access the stream.

This is just zerg's reaction to an immortal allin. Fuck everything max out roach/hydra and roflstomp. There are some great ZvP's around, this is not one of it.

I totally believe there can be a better job done in making the games more entertaining than any game with Protoss and their micropreventing mechanics in it. Mostly because blizzard is pumping millions of dollars into SC2. That's where the money and the sponsors are. As long as Sc2 offers the best monetary incentives, it will hold center stage.

Why does XiGua's army look so small?
