Why should we force positivity about a game which was (in the opinion of a lot of us) just awful?

There's also the option of just not posting if all you're gonna do is complain. It doesn't contribute anything other than taking away from the experience of those who actually liked the game

I think it's more useful to discuss what exactly made the game boring and how to make it more exciting.
If more people spread the word about the aspects that cause such games we could work as a community to improve the game.



Can't wait for the productive discussions that come after the negativity, I've only been there 4-5 years so it should be any minute now.

Well, most of the things in question have been discussed to death already (to much focus on air-to-air play, immobile endgame armies and mass spellcaster use) so it's mostly about spreading the word now.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Apparently the new balance changes have done a good job at it. I have no idea.

Honestly, PvZ endgame has always been shit. There's not been a single time where I've been excited about a PvZ endgame - not to say that good games never happened, but they've always been the exception.

Cause you're a fansite.

TL isn't a fansite, it's a discussion forum. If you want people talking about how awesome SC2 is and how it's never been better go to r/Starcraft.

The site that basically spawned and was the center of the ded gaem meme? That's definitely a positive place

Those people all left a long time ago. The second post there is about how awesome that game was.

That's fair, I haven't gone there recently except to post my speedruns

Earlier I asked myself if the 3 spores per base from Rogue were overkill. Well I got my answer now.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

This particular game didn't look particularly imbalanced unlike most games of skytoss tbh. Rogue definitely had his chances.

I think its inherent in the design of Protoss, Rogue got out positioned throughout the game and as neeb said in the interview Rogue went with Broodlords which is probably the wrong composition and he had very few vipers all game. I enjoyed the game a lot and I don't see any reason to design it out of the game.
