What do you think of the limitation of creep and how it restricts zerg?

What do you think of the new zerg style which is more slow and campy compared to the explosive zerg in BW?

What do you think of the marauder and its effectiveness against Toss?

What do you think of Bio in TvZ

What do you think of remaking BW maps and applying them to tournys in SC2

@Question
What are you feelings on the current Blizzard ladder maps with regards to balance? Have you had the opportunity to try out the SC2 maps that ICCUP is publishing (here)? If so, what do you think of these maps, both balance-wise and in terms of their potential to become popular in the mainstream SC2 community?

@Question

The protoss race has very few "hero players" right now. As we just saw, no protoss advanced in IEM. Why do you feel this race is less appealing to top pros, especially in Korea ?

@Question
Do you think SC2 can reach the point where balance complaints are dismissed by the majority or will we, similar to WoW, be jumping between one FotM to the next depending on what strategies are available at the time?
Even if the game was to be perfectly balanced, would the community accept that? In short, will the whine always be this bad regardless of how the races are balanced?

So when is this thing coming back?

Edit:Errrrr, SO I might not have read the last post. And I might be a really bad user.
We were all raised on televion that made us believe we'd all be Millionairs, Movie gods, and Rockstars..... But we won't.... We are slowly learning that fact. And we are very, very pissed off.

Since you have access to players from all three major servers [asia, us, eu], general discussion about the meta game from each server would be awesome.

I'm always shocked at how little attention your threads get JP. Sure there's a bunch of views, but only 2 pages of posts =O cmon! At least some good questions were asked. I really enjoy these state of the game podcasts. I always download them and play them while I work, its a great substitute from listening to the radio lol.

I can't wait til its uploaded, hopefully by the end of this night so I'll have it at work tomorrow hehe.

Yes we are on iTunes I'm 99% sure. If you want to confirm that for me so I don't have to download that horrible program (just formatted) then that would be awesome

holy shit it's back.... sooooo happy.... nice to see one right before MLG too eh?

@Question: Would something as simple as increasing queen speed or reducing reaper/helion speed be the solution to TvZ's ridiculous early into mid game?

Hey guys, if you really want to help out the show and don't know how, download iTunes, search the Store for "State of the Game" and write a short sentence about the show and then rate us. This helps the show grow and reach new SC2 fans like yourselves!
