You are seriously trying to claim that large numbers of Terrans haven't, for YEARS...literally since SC2 released, bought into the argument of "Terran players are just better" when there are numerous indications of balance issues? Sorry, but to claim that hasn't been and still isn't an issue is almost comical having seen what these forums have been like since the release of WoL.

man i thought protoss players always said that only terran cries about balance...
one game where protoss wasn't really ahead but apparently "outplayed terran" or even some people have the stupidity to say "won" then "lost with scv pull"...he made colossus at a bad time after a really weird PvT build. there are tons of scv pulls that don't work in even games.
its one fucking game. there are tons of other samples to show that pvt has a variety of outcomes.
and lifting building causing draw almost never happens, MC didn't have to sac his entire economy to basetrade, he could have had enough money for a sg+pheonix. I am sorry man, but even Flash admitted after Hot6ix cup, that Terran si pretty strong lately. Zest said, that Terran is OP :-) Who to believe, Flash or TheDwf? Don't know, I go with Zest  you dont think protoss was strong before? you dont think that balance changes constantly with adaptations and evolution of play, (not to mention maps, although protoss has been strong with similar maps) you really think THIS one game can be used to analyze balance? if terran is strong vs protoss in general, we did not see that in these games, since these games contained tons of mistakes on both sides. regardless of balance, either player could have won this series easily. i just dont see your point. instead of crying, take a second to read what the fuck im saying. its really disrespectful not to. im not saying terran isn't stronger than protoss. im saying these games can't be used as a basis to analyze anything, let alone the relative balance of an entire matchup. other games could be used, a large subset of games could be used, flash and zest's statements mean a lot and could be used (not by themselves)...but not this series. which is what the whiners are doing. which was my only point there's always a shitstorm when MC loses, just roll with it and mock the crying protosses, no need for anger  Well the losing way "force draw" into "scv pull" is the same as winning by "fake blink allin" or "good forcefields" into "so good storms". It is the same level of "wrong" play from P view. Just T cannot see it, even though they see it when storm is raining from the air ,) The last 2 games showed basically everything what is wrong in PvT. You cannot fight without splash, SCV pulls are insanely strong, it is hard to defend 3 bases at a time and T has huge advantage in basetrades. I am not saying MC should have win, but it showed THIS greatly. No, MC doesn't have proper splash damage and therefore he lost, yup. So we can stop this, probably, no? Now we have another Terran advancing, probably. Unless wrists issues or summer issues 
Pretty much. The series exemplified the very worst issues, regardless of how the play was. THAT'S why people are annoyed at it. Or at least that's why I'm annoyed at it.

All I'v learned from this is that Zerg players should bitch more. If only soO wasnt so godlike. I feel like Infestor Broodlord and having that one zerg asshole makes us just unable to bitch. nah, Zerg definitely had the weakest op period
Dunno about that. I think the actual strategy itself was absurdly OP. But in terms of everything else...I guess its because it was right before the new game so people sort of blanked it out. It was also counterbalanced by the fact that Zerg was pretty much the weakest race for a long time before that; so the race had some "OP Credit" to cash in before people started getting really annoyed at it.
On the flip side GOMTvT was pretty much toxic as hell and led to a huge amount of Terrans with massive chips on their shoulders, which is why people get wound up at T dominance. And Protoss has always been perceived by a number of people as OP no matter how badly the race has actually been doing; which is why people get wound up at P dominance.
Alternatively it could just be that Zerg are just so cuddly it makes it hard to dislike them.

That drop was unnecessary and risky but I guess it worked out

I don´t know. HerO should have realised that he can´t just win when Taeja was ready. He should have expanded and delayed Taejas expansion as long as possible. Weak play from HerO in my opinion.

This winter has been pretty warm where I live. I'm gonna assume Taeja's performance is directly related to my percieved temperature.
I might go take a cold shower next game so people can't complain about terran op.

I would strech it and say it applies to TvZ.
And i won't call the maps shitty :/ they just adress previous balance issues. They turned the balance upside down instead of hitting perfect balance, but its hard to blame most of the changes.
