people realize that there's a patch coming out that will nerf Terran, right? just saying.
and don't say 'it doesn't nerf Terran enough', there's something called caution and successful companies usually have it
Yah this patch is clearly a fix-all for the entire game. I can imagine someone on the testing team was like "Hey guys it appears TvZ is not balanced, we should increase the time it takes to make zealots. That should fix it."

One thing to note, terran is strong, this is definitely true. But if there is a extreme perception that this is the case, more players will switch over to terran, thus further creating this dynamic of terran at the top.

white people can't play zerg.

Well if you notice, the Zergs have played a significantly bigger amount of games then other races in top 20 on korean server, otherwise they wouldnt be there.

I feel pretty good as a zerg player right now. Im not failing horribly, but once the patch comes out all zergs players would hit a pretty high point because they delt with being the underpowered race.

Unless you lose every game to 5 rax reaper and 2 gate it won't make much of a difference.

So when is the patch coming out?

congrats to phoenixwerra he is like the black guy in a graduate level computer science (aka me). Switch to terran plz i dont think zerg will be fixed until ATLEAST HotS so dont lose out on tourny money.

Kore is not a NA player technically as someone else used the account. Technically there is no Zerg in the top 20 in NA.
EDIT: Finally, I make the cut!

What? You think that the least-played race should have over 1/3 of the representation? Okay. Actually if it was balanced it doesn't really matter how popular the options are, at the top levels it will be quite equal anyways. The reason is that if there are really few zergs the terrans would have much less experience playing against top zergs than the zerg players have against top terrans giving top zergs a huge advantage in that matchup. As an example look at fencing, in top fencing left handed people are extremely overrepresented, it is not because it is an advantage but because they get more training against right handed people than right handed people got training against them, and it is of course totally balanced as well. And the disparage between how many are left and right handed is much greater than between terran/zerg. Show nested quote +On September 14 2010 06:12 Carthage wrote:
Now, can someone please explain to me why having a small number of zerg at the top represents imbalance? Seems like there would have to be NO zerg at the top to truly say that. Skill ceiling is still very far from being reached in any matchup.
good post, thanks

I don't think the patches stop with 1.1. The 1.1 patch is rather miniscule to the other zerg patches that will (hopefully) come out.

Yeah, these fake patches are gonna be huge for Zerg.
Seriously, though, I think the tank nerf and reaper time nerf will be enough for Zerg to be good. Hydralisks will be seen in TvZ again!
