Balance whine is definitely more vocal now than say, five years ago. Cool to see you clear some misconceptions up though!


Its because Blizzard patches things. People get the impression that balance whining can affect patches, which wasn't a feeling you could get in BW.

That's a good point actually

There has never been any balance changes patches in Brood War ?


Not after 2001 I think.

Little bit sad to see this amount of balance whine in TL :/

Flash tends to play constantly greedy as a standard play which is big weakness in his play and easily exploited by wise player like MC. MC made sure in 2nd game to see how Flash reacts to proxy Stargate play and adjusts last game accordingly to that making sure that Flash skips scanning Protoss base in this situation and having no idea what MC is doing behind proxy SG expecting standard play behind it and even moving out with his army for which MC's build is perfect counter to. If Flash had send his scouting scv straight to MC's natural to see his a bit late nexus timing he would've known its tech before Nexus but even in that situation I think Flash wouldn't have changed his build too much. Flash's play in SC2 has never been really good in tournaments where you dont have long time to prepare for specific match so I'm actually pretty suprised how people expect Flash to do very well in this IEM

MC vs. Flash rematch? If Flash wins the rematch, that would be awful x.x


I wonder if MC has more in the bag than what he's shown vsT

that's a trick question if i have ever seen one.


I was actually waiting for the Flash fans to jump on and say how he'd 2-0 MC. But I guess their faith was shaken.

people just need to realize that since the beginning of sc2 noone was ever invincible. even MVP, Nestea, Taeja or MMA in their primes lost games. if anything, the game just got mor eand more brutal as time went on. which is why i respect palyers like Taeja, who rose to the top over and over again. because nothing in sc2 is easy or certain. your always vulnerable, you always have to give it your best and sometimes even that isn't enough.

i don't know why i bursted into that speech. i apologize.


That sounds like something I wrote last week.


Mvp in his prime lost to Adelscott.


Genius in his prime lost to Qxc! And Qxc trained with adelscott. COINCIDENCE?
