Painuser was great IMO although his debating skills weren't as great as the others but that's something that can be learned. I really love the show but normally it feels like a Terran hate-fest or at least Terran's issues never get discussed as the show usually features Protoss and Zerg players and day9 despite being random player usually seems to prefer P and Z. Terrans dont have issues. In Korea Terrans apologize for playing the race because of marine rushes. And PvT is stupid because of Terran being too strong. The only issues with Terran is that they are too strong esp early game vs Z and P. | ||

People need to realize that they are basically listening to an organized version of a conversation being had by very close friends who also happen to be top players in the world :p. We all joke around with our friends and call them any/all of the offensive things that iNcontroL or any of the other casters call each other on the show, so why should it be different with them? What makes SotG so great (other then the entertainment factor of course haha) is that we get to hear the uncut version of what these amazing players actually think and why they think that. There is nowhere else you can really get that, not even the Day[9] daily really since it is only him (by no means does that discredit Day[9], the daily is amazing and he is also hugely important to SotG!). The SC2 community as a whole needs to be less critical and more respectful of everyone, especially people like those on SotG. The are doing us all a great service by having the show every week for free, and rather than harping on them about anything and everything we should just listen to what they have to say and appreciate what they do for us. | ||

Banshees are infinitely better than DTs since they 1) Can be part of an army 2) Force detection regardless of cloak 3) Force one tech (robo) from Protoss 4) Fly 5) Protoss is weak to air 6) Cheaper 7) Tech is easily accessible 8) Tech is faster 9) There is less of a gamble/all-in 10) Kill workers faster than DTs 11) Ranged 12) Decelerate slowly so they can scoot shoot 13) Workers cant run from them nearly as easily. 14) Detection doesn't render them useless Theres probably more... | ||

Hell I call my friends way worse things than what's been said on sotg before. IdrA's right though, it's not like they're all going to go away in a huff about being called an idiot. Some people just take shit too seriously, and ironically it's not the ones being called idiots. | ||

although I think the infestors actually act kinda like a repellent to where the protoss isnt allowed to get a huge mass of air units because they know what will come of it I don't think incontrol felt THAT ganged up on by artosis and idra but he was kinda hurt that a large enough part of the chat was STFUing him and being assholes and such | ||

Um, I'm sure everyone on SOTG are nice guys and fine hosts, but they are not our buds. If a random guy off the street came up to me and said "HEY FUCKER!" I would probably give them the worst stink-eye ever. | ||

You look at real sports, the athletes always say what great fans they have, the most knowledgeable fans in the world, blah blah jerk the people who support them off a bit. The e-sports guys go on the cast and say that their fans don't know what the hell they're talking about, they try to avoid reading anything they say, and so on. Now some people are going to appreciate their honesty, but others are going to react to it as "well if you don't care what I have to say you wont care when I call you the biggest douchebag in the world!" | ||

Hate to burst your bubble but number 10 is wrong, DTs actually kill workers faster =/ | ||
