EPTIt only dawned on me how stupid the format is when we got the final...and essentially as a spectator we're robbed of what I feel a proper final should be...equality and not defecit or set advantage.

But overall I do think that in terms of how interesting it was to watch mlg was really below the level of the past IEM. After a while I even stopped caring and just didnt watch anymore. Maybe it is because I know the EU players better, or that they just play more interesting. And I mean it was a great event, good casting, but it kinda missed that "omg"-feeling when watching the games. | ||

Also, Cauthonluck v HuK was a total joke. Terran player floating 1000 minerals and queueing up 4-5 units at each barracks being called "a good macro player". :/ | ||

It´s so freaking easy to control the ball, so extremelly efective for the cost, that the oponent must play to hard counter it or its dead. Check every pro semi-long replay, when T make no mayor mistakes, he ALWAYS lose less units (money wise), plus with mules he can out mine the oponent with a much less workers. The balance isue is the fact that the ball not need any complex micro, and to beat the ball you need at the very least some skill. | ||

Who would have expected Protoss taking the top 3 spots? And only one American in the top 5? | ||

Every single spell in this game has ZERO dynamics in it compared to BW where pretty much all spells were dynamic and that was what created excitement | ||

There is really nothing entertaining about 3/4 of the races and really the only thing that i think is enjoyable to watch compared to BW is MMM vs Baneling Muta. There are no dynamics in SC2 and protoss just showcases it extremely. Force field, graviton beam, storm, feedback, are all meh (Storm because of how little damage it does and because of smart casting :/ ) Every single spell in this game has ZERO dynamics in it compared to BW where pretty much all spells were dynamic and that was what created excitement This. Dimaga v Tarson has been THE BEST THING to watch of all the SC2 coverage. Dimaga v Tarson was better than MorroW v IdrA. Although Tester v IdrA (in Day9's KotB) was also pretty epic. Every game feels so bland and it's generally in the hands of the Terran to lose the game, rather than the Z/P to win the game (excluding mirror match ups, which aside from some TvT are all awful). | ||

Although, some of the longer games like Socke vs Drewbie I was on the edge of my seat, and didn't want it to end. | ||

The game is evolving and you should take a chill pill. :D The Terran players who participated in the MLG thing were pretty average. Almost NONE of the top top EU Terrans participated (MorroW, DeMusliM, Tarson, TLO etc) and very few NA/Canadian Terrans are as good as the EU ones. | ||

MMM can kill everything, it doesnt even need scouting. And the reason for this is Stim on Marauder, which causes those issues. MMM doesnt have a true weakness. Its fast, its cheap, its making a ton of damage, its easy to control. Due to reactors and the ability to support 5 rax of one base Terran can also reinforce their MMM Ball in a really short time. Even as a Zergplayer I feel like trading armies isnt really good for me, because MMM is also in small numbers VERY effective. Even more than in big battles, because Medivacs heal a ton and u can perform this Maruader/Stim Micro. | ||
