I thought it was crazy fun personally. I jumped 3 feet in the air when Socke mothership poped out lol
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

Too lazy to find the exact quote from blizzard but when they reduced stim to 100/100 it was like "we want terran infantry to be more dangerous early game".

lol

Edit for quote:
We still believe that the terrans are spending too much on infrastructure and are struggling to compete at certain times in the game against the protoss. Reducing the cost of essential infantry upgrades should make the terrans a little bit more dangerous when going with an infantry heavy force.

If you cant appreciate the mico invovled in all these 4 gate PVP we just saw, you probably are only gonna enjoy games that include nukes or carriers or some other unpractical t3 unit. This tourny has been amazing and fun to watch, the best part is it was all free to the public too. Calling this tourney the most boring one of SC2 is just showing us how few tourneys in SC2 you have seen.

I don't understand why you seem to expect every game to be wtfawesome... that's not going to happen! i think the games have been mostly entertaining, some have been great. I think the only thing that makes this less entertaining than watching starcraft1 is that the level of play is much lower, but these guys are still the best we've got and you should appreciate their skill!

That instantly made the whole tournament 90x better. Goddamn, I didn't even notice him making it until it popped.

Totally agree, especially the fact that the last zerg went out seemingly ages ago is sooo boring and lame...
Im just a bit sad that Blizzard is gonna take until mid september until patch 1.1


Patch 1.1 won't noticeably change anything except for early gate pressure.

Well, if you see more and more protoss defeating MMM then eventually the meta game will shift to other terran options. I think when protosses get better at using high templar and collosus you'll definately see less and less MMM.

If you want to see innovative play, big money tournaments aren't the source. You may get a glimpse of creative plays, but that's pretty much it.

What sort of evidence do you have for a statement like this?


For instance, morrow went 5rax reaper pretty much every game against idra. He's going to do a build that he's practiced and refined and rely on his fundamentals to win his games. Idra knew what to expect each and every game. Nothing innovative about the series or the entire IEM tourney for that matter.

This thread is shit and so are most of the people in it. What exactly is it you people are expecting, lol.

There have been some FANTASTIC games in this especially for a game thats been out 1 month.

really op, the game is a month old and you go "mmm is the worst thing that has happened sc".

wtf, it's fine you have an opinion and all but that was a bit over dramatic since the game is an infant at best.

To me the games were pretty interesting. Also seems like patch 1.1 will be dead on, since zerg only needs i lil push.

Nice quality posting there.

Also if you weren't happy with the ways the Ts were playing, you will be happy to know the final 3 are all protoss. So moar PVps!

I'm disappointed at the lack of zerg players.




And at IEM you don't think Toss players were dissapointed? I don't understand all this "Tourney sucks because this race isn't in here. QQ" Just enjoy the games. Will someone fill me in on why they can only watch this game if their favorite race is playing??


QFT

just look at how many bw finals ended up with zvz pvp or tvt...


Edit: think i read you wrong

I wouldn't call it boring, per se. I'd say a lot of games have had some pretty low skill levels (Not even including the 32 non-invites, or however it was set up). A lot of the pro-type players have been a little shaky even, a lot of them it's one of their first LAN events, so they're likely jittery. The styles have suited me just fine, although being a Protoss player, I tend to cringe at so much PvP. 4gate v 4gate gets old, but G3 of Kiwikaki vs HuK in the WB finals was really exciting, I enjoyed it thoroughly.

So, an entertaining tourney, but the level of play has been a bit lower than IEM or KoTB (Obvious reasons.. international exclusive events vs more localized more inclusive event, duh!)

Totally worth watching still! Although, getting up at 5am for JD vs Flash was admittedly more epic.

I do shudder every time I hear people complaining about every little thing and the game is a month old.. BW's peak took a long time to evolve as well, just be patient and enjoy the game. It is a game, after all!
