psure blizzard won't patch until this GSL season is done.


Gimme 1 good reason why?


Beacuse GOM and Blizzard are partners and they dont want to create a mess out of an ongoing tournament?

What if in the RO8 all that is left is terran? IMO, that would be the single most disastrous thing that could possibly happen in any big tournament, let alone the first.

Im actually hoping for something like that to happen so alll the non believers will finally shut up..
When in doubt, just drone up.

Considering how many P that are left I find an all T RO8 to be unrealistic.

I can't decide if you actually believe all the best players just happened to pick terran, or if you are terrified of a possible incoming nerf for your race D:

Even if it would be the case that the Zerg-players are just bad and smaller in numbers, which it clearly isn't, sth. still would be wrong.

Playing Zerg just isn't appealing atm. cuz you have a much harder time to win, they have the least amount of Units, are defending most of the game against uber-harrass-units/timing-pushes, have the least rewarding macro-abilities that require the most APM and are the most punishing if you neglect them etc.

Even if Zerg would be balanced, that stuff would still make less ppl play Zerg, but on top of that, it's even a weaker race!

Sheesh, Zerg players need to get better or something. I guess Ret will be helping balance this out

Not if his Zerg play is going to be similar to what I seen him do against Rotterdam yesterday on DecemvreTV stream. That was really bad Zerg play. None can expect anything from him for at least a month of hard practice and learning all the tricks of sc2.

i dont really care, if top-level-players post here. not as long as they spout some shit like morrow does, like telling that reaper micro is really hard.
just for instance. every player, that ever played stalker or roaches against zealots will state, that its not that freaking hard, in addition those fuckers can jump cliffs.
though i really appreciate it, when people like qxc or naruto just stood up and made a thread here, clearly saying, that THEIR OWN RACE is imbalanced. or drewbie stating in a interview, that he also thinks that terran is imbalanced and helped him of course raising high. big respect to them.
and it´s already stated in this thread, that there are way too many over-modest progamers, who just won´t speak their mind. take madfrog at iem.


the problem with Morrow saying reaper micro is hard is that he admittedly learnt the build like 2 days before he won a large-money tournament with them, in a convincing manner. So either he's the new Boxer-Jaedong Hybrid, or that micro just inst that hard

starcraft 2 in general is actually that easy for terran (not gonna talk about the other races because i didnt play them enough).

playing mass reaper the last 2 days with top zergs to help and support me boosted me up so high, its not like u need 200 tvzs to practice wraith patrol micro to get good at it (sc1) here its just the overall gameplan and simple bo structure that i had to learn, and sure some little techniques to micro and macro same time with this build to get a good gameflow but learning a new playstyle is quite easy in this game if u got the basic knowledge of the game and higher mechanics than needed

and thats exactly why i feel so confident saying idra would be equal or better terran really quickly if he switched. TLO isnt a god of sc2 still me manged to play really high level in all matchups.

so dont come and say 2days of preparation with top zergs coaching is not enough in sc2, because it is lol and thats what i think is so sad about the game for all beta and release, only mu i want to compare with hard skill it takes to play from sc1 is tvt

hmmmmmm, the reason why tvt is the most skill requiring matchup in your opinion could be that, it´s the only matchup thats actually balanced -.-

How long has BW been considered balanced, now?

How many times has racial power shifted? MANY TIMES, without changes to the game.

All the IMBA QQ is really pissing me off.

If you can't handle a race having a (PROBABLY TEMPORARY) advantage, you shouldn't be playing RTS, as this always always always happens, even in the most balanced games possible like BW.

Of course there are power shifts within RTSes once they are balanced but that doesn't mean sometimes real imbalances don't exist either. Especially when the game hasn't even been patched post-release yet.

Continuously whining about it doesn't help anything. It just turns the forums into an unreadable shithole. I can't be the only one sick of seeing every other thread degenerate into ___ IS IMBA.

Personally I'm just as sick of the people constantly QQing about QQing and whining about whining. Don't try and act like you're any better. A lot of people are trying to have reasonable discussions about balance and comments like these don't contribute anything.

Yeah, but it's way more fun for all the Zerg's getting sick of SC2 itself because it's so frustrating to loose to inferior players.... -.-°

You don't have to read the post's after all and still have lots and lots of fun trolling around in this forum, now what are Zerg-players gonna do - Play the campaign? Switch races to the IMBA or the easy-race?

I wanna play Zerg but I want them to be balanced and everyone who cared about the game at all, wants it to be balanced as well.

Let Blizzard do the balancing. They're the professionals and the ones who made BW.

Nobody wants the game balanced more than Blizzard.

I really think we can talk about balance/or imbalance after release of the two addons to come.

Until then, its just adjusting...here and there.

if it wasn't for the whining, blizzard wouldn't even know about the balance issues.

I simply disagree. Blizzard isn't stupid. You think they don't keep up with the tournament results just like we do?

Are you kidding? A majority of whiny TL regulars yelling "IMBA" doesn't make it true, and Blizzard knows this best of all, simply by watching bw evolve over the years... It still is evolving! WITH NO CHANGES. What a surprise.

Blizzard will come to their own conclusions, with or without whiny forums.

You are wrong. There are regular changes in BW that greatly affect balance. Changes in map pool, that is. Balancing through map changes isn't good idea for SC2 though, cause that will have negative impact on map pool diversity.
