If you have criticism, you need to address the content, not the hosts. Idra and Artosis are 2 (1.5) Zerg players, but you can't point that out and then blanket them as biased. Respond to the content.

You can't tell them to "get 2 Terran and Protoss players". That's fucking obtuse advice. "Yo just get 4 more high level players to record with you." Yes, I think everyone sees the value in getting it, but it's not practical.

Respond to the content and use evidence / logic to back up your claims.

Potentially bad idea having Idra with you, but more content is always appreciated. Thanks for this!

Oh cmon Idra's views are really rather intelligent and thought out. Just because he rages in game doesn't mean he's wrong.

Yeah. IdrA's complaints are often heat-of-the-moment complaints, similar to how you just finish arguing with someone and an hour later you realize what you should've said. That aside, he has one of the best analytical abilities in the scene.

actually if you look at the breakdown in the lastest season of gsl youll notice that there is like no zergs and the ones that did make it fairly far lost hard as soon as they played a decent player.

Soooo.... Wait.

You think that reapers post nerf is balanced? That no one builds reapers anymore, save for maybe scouting in a few matchups? And even then, only one? Your definition of balanced is nerfed-so-hard-no-one-uses-it-anymore?

Cool bro. I guess lings/bling/muta is OP since its so widely used LOLOLOLOL


i actually think reapers were insanely OP untill the nerfed em. now they are hardly viable.... this happend to the roach as well. was insanely op then was nerfed so hard they were a joke befor they were buffed again.

Artosis, hey man, how are you? Cool. Look, I really like you, REALLY! But please, what is this rubbish? It makes you look silly. It's not a show about imbalance it's a show about "my race is underpowered".
Oh no

I think the best way to deal with colossi as zerg is swarming a whole protoss army with roach ling baneling drops. :D

players get flamed for balance complaints because they all whine subjectively about the race they play themselves, therefor it's hard to take it serious. maybe if artosis and idra started saying zerg is overpowered that would be cool.

do we really need another reason for angry nerds to incite balance discussions? That being said i havent watched it yet so it might not be that bad.

edit: Forgot to edit this after watching. It ended up being a lot better than i expected a show called "Imbalanced" by idra and artosis to be. I still feel like everything in it has already been discussed to death though.

this is just another zerg whine-show.. "Let's put tvp to the side andddddd (guess what?) talk about ZvP". Too biased for my liking tbh.

Artosis:

You cannot go into any LR thread, you can't go into any forum thread without balance coming up


HMM, I WONDER WHY.

All this does is cause bronze-plat players to blame their losses on imbalance and shit up every thread on here. Why give them ammunition?

"Welcome to Imbalanced, the show about imbalance and not for those who are feint of heart or those with over inflated egos..."
oh, the irony.
And I guess I was wrong... they can be even more biased.
Always remember that you are unique... Just like everyone else.

How much protoss representation was in the final 8?? TWO.. exactly as much as zerg..

And guess what?? A Zerg got into the top 4.. No protoss did.

So, if you are going to complain about zerg being under-represented.. how is that possible when more zergs got further in GSL 4 than Protosses??
