First they don't have a Terran representative for probably the biggest change in TvZ ever, and then they downtalk all terrans in general. Kind of a dick move to be honest. Their opinions are taken seriously by alot of people so the stuff they said abaut the patch on this show makes me think they are kind of P/Z biased. Not a good thing for a show that is called state of the game. Would be fitting if it was the State of the Hive/Aiur but this is just sort of unprofessional. Just read the last 20 pages or so ... this is exactly what has been discussed and it doesn't need to start again for the millionth time =\ People should love the show for what it is and not hate it because they think it should be different. | ||

Well people think the show should be "State of my Game" and should always talk about the subject they feel is important. | ||

The metagame is a little iffy at the moment but it'll balance out. I definitely think the new Zerg style is more interesting, love the creep everywhere. | ||

If you are going to be bias against Terran and not discuss the current STATE OF THE GAME, then you should change the name of the show. not being able to get illusion on the show is not a good enough excuse to not get a terran on the show to discuss the state of TvZ fairly. Should have asked for any grandmaster Terran to come on to discuss. get 1 or 2 even. discuss the state of TvZ for crying out loud. The stats show it is the most imbalanced match up since the beta. How can a respected man of the community like Artosis just brush this aside? It was offensive. Because JP just has the information of every grandmaster Terran on Earth and he wants to sit there and just call all of them to see if they're available for the show. Get. Over. It. God damn, that you're offended by something like this is really just sad. | ||

Not a good thing for a show that is called state of the game. Would be fitting if it was the State of the Hive/Aiur but this is just sort of unprofessional. 1) Hes not going to invite some random grandmaster he's never met, he ahs no idea what they're going to say or what they are like, or if they can even defend, or make reasonable points. 2) he asked 2 quality terrans - QXC and Illusion, both of whom couldn't make it, it wasn't that they didn't want a terran, they couldn't get one. 3) I think Artosis is more then qualified enough to talk balance, As i do the others, while they may not caer as much because theyre not terran, terran is still the most represented race in teh GSL round of 16 ( oh no only 7 of 16 terrans what happened to balance? -_-)....so it can't be as IMPOSSIBLE as people are making it out to be..... Blizzard will act if it doesn't change soon, but im sure terrans will figure something out shortly that will help them get back to an even matchup. It may be imbalance, it may not, its tough to tell when theres a big switch in the meta. | ||

I feel like his thoughts on the current state of Terran would be interesting to hear. I'd rather not have to cringe that hard again ;;! On a serious note it seems like he doesn't fit with the rest of the cast very well based on the last time he appeared. | ||

I'm sure he's a lot better now at least he'd be more qualified to give Terran insight as opposed to the others. | ||

No he doesnt have the information of all the grandmasters out there, but if he said in the show something like, "we are looking for a grandmaster Terran views of the current state of TvZ after the patch, contact us in the chat or via xxxxxx" he woulda got something. Instead we got Artosis, and Incontrol telling Terrans to stop crying when they cried imbalance for Zerg or Protoss whenever they have a hard time. It was supposed to be a minor patch that had the most significant impact on the game than any patch since the beta. I think that required an in depth look in their show, no? | ||

Artosis is overrated, not as overrated as tasteless but he is still pretty damn overrated and he really thinks he is the mr know it all when it comes to sc2. And then we have Incontrol who is actually the one of them I would listen to and discuss with, I love that guy. | ||
