Well it's kind of not noteworthy to be unafraid of said hammer if it's obviously not going to be wielded

Reading this LR is better than watching the games of the tournament.

the problem with TB i find is he can be prone to exaggeration and one moment being very offended and the next saying something sarcastic/witty/snarky at someone that isn't exactly offending but will be taken as such because he's already been previously offending people in a thread, it's a weird phenomenenon that surround him.

It is not that bad, but too many mirrors for my liking, I wanted to see Leenock, Life, JD and Hyun playing against other top Koreans and it is pretty much impossible like this.

I will point out that regardless of what sort of posts filled these pages, 150 pages for day 1 of a tourney is quite solid. Alive game with plenty o' passion

I only hope we get some fresh breeze with toplevel Korean SH wars instead of only baneling cheeses and roach wars.

Also the racial distribution of 7 Zergs, 5 terrans, and 4 toss should keep most people happy, especially me

I was planning on linking the VODs, but then I realized I don't really have enough passion to go through 15 different twitch channels to find them. I guess the main stream ones should be uploaded to the DH youtube channel tho

On the other hand he is actually involved with an esports-team. He sees the other ugly sides of balancing problems, like the downplaying of the actual skill and effort, mostly because blizzard doesnt seem to be willing or able to go for a 'fair' balancing. How shitty has it to be for a player, to invest an incredible ammount of time into something, therefore finally being successfull, only to hear how he is a patch-toss/zerg/terran? Even worse, its completely impossible to actually measure the inflfuence of misbalancing. Can also be a hard hit for your confidence as a person as well as a professional gamer.
Even though i think TBs comments are sometimes slightly polemic (even though often correct), its pretty understandable considering his background.
