1) They will never remove smart fire tanks. Browder said he will never make a change that "dumbs" down the AI such as units clumping together to produce balls etc.
Which is kind of silly because ball armies aren't realistic at all. If anything, if they want smart AI, armies should move in realistic formations like in most RTS's. Sure it wouldn't be starcrafty, but neither are army balls.
Also I hope we can get Artosis' opinions on the TSL changes, since he's the most familiar with the korean teams and their operations and whatnot.

Ugh I cant stand the constant complaints about one race being too weak. It was dumb when protoss were saying it a month or two ago, and it is dumb now that apparently Terran are complaining. But I have not heard any top level Terran complain so where is this coming from all of a sudden.

Maybe worth mentioning during the next show that Gus is, in fact, a scum bag? You guys didn't want to speak about it "until the facts come out" last time, but by this point they have.

DeMusliM is in the U.K right now, so i doubt he will be at SOTG.

You shouldn't get your hopes up with them giving it any airtime.
Remember this is a show that started out with one of the strengths being pro players or people deep in the esports scene sharing their opinions and wisdoms that spectators just don't have.
I have no idea what they can say about the whole Gus thing that hasn't already been said or an average TL user can't also say.
Sure it might feel good but it's a shitty reason for that to be on the show (especially since the show is now MLG property and MLG is rivals with IPL).

Read Tyler's post in this thread on this subject.

I know we can't make any assessments now, because Terran's haven't had a chance to re-adapt to the metagame, but if they ever buff terran, it better not be bio...how about restoring the now impotent seige tank to its former glory? Buffing the siege tank would break TvZ. Not if you removed combat shield or smart firing tanks, or...etc. There are lots of ways to improve current TvX from a spectator's point of view. I think we also forget that Blizzard's flawed maps have catalyzed lots of perceive balance issues that aren't there. Sure 60 dmg tanks were imba on the early 2010 maps that were nothing but chokes. What if some ladder maps actually had carrier micro zones or really open areas like tal-darim? Then, they'd be more viable. Then, buffed tanks become less of a problem. Etc...
They will never remove smart fire tanks, they don't want to dumb down the AI. Carriers in their current design literally cannot be micro'd like that: the interceptors fly back to the carrier immediately when you try to pull them away. TvZ is already really closely balanced with marine/tank vs. muta/ling/bling (or infestors in place of mutas). If you buff the tanks, Terran is going to annihilate zergs left and right.
Not needing +1 mech weapons to one shot zerglings with +1 armor would make terran initial pushes stronger, among other things.

You know how SotG does questions at the end of the show? Where do you send these questions in? And when? During the week or during the show?

If I'm not mistaken, you tweet them to JP (@itmejp) during the show. If it's a good one, he might pick it.

How about getting a Terran on SOTG for once?
|
even though i feel the balance of the game if quite good at the moment, i would note that terran has always had and still has a prominent spot in the gsl finals.

Maybe Drewbie would be good to get on?
Everyone would love to hear a Terran perspective, especially now that the reign of terran "seems" to be over.

It's Monday in the States. SOTG will most likely be on tomorrow unless they're skipping this week for whatever reason.

Hmm, I'm sure he could wake up for it and go back to bed after if he really wanted too. After all, Artosis is frequently on it nowadays and the time difference must be just as crazy for him in KR as it is for us brits.
