Whining about Protoss or balance will be more harshly moderated from page 90 onwards.

Before making comments on race picking, refer to MLG's rules

Why didnt Taeja come to collect a check? Guess he didn't want to mess around with open brackets and get shafted like Bomber.

Just because Gateway expands are more common, doesn't mean Protoss can't still do this to you.

And as Stardust did vs Miniraiser, a cannon rush always works despite early pool, which is really sad i think.


Saying that a cannon rush always works despite early pool based on one game where an unarguably much more accomplished Protoss beat a foreign zerg player sounds flawed at best.

Well that was just an example I thought of this tournament. Cannon rushes are quite good, too good.

I think they're fine. It's just a way for Protoss to control the pace of the game and punish Hatch first.

the hilarious thing about watching streams with VLC is instead of having lag i just get a loop of the last few seconds that i already heard. can make for some funny moments like right now when i kept hearing them say "SEEED"

Can't the guy be allowed to enjoy the money he DOES make once in a while? What's the point of winning that Dreamhack money if he has to hop right on another flight to another weekend tournament?

I've seen Parting, Hero and sOs all beat Zergs that have gone 15 pool first with cannon rushes. Soo stated that depending on the map, you couldnt perfectly defend it no matter what you do.

I am Terran and I think photon canons are not entirely 100% balanced? Perhaps increase build time?
