But then again a lot of zergs are doing good this season, I think it's the first time we're close to 33% so I'm quite happy! | ||

Polt and Top deserve Code S. They aren't some of the Terrans who got there riding the 1/1/1 or favored matchups due to being Terran. | ||

The problem is not so much the amount of terrans in GSL (28 out of 64) but the amount of terrans in Code S and part of the problem is that it is so ridiculously hard to drop out of code s, so no matter how much the code s terrans lose their chances are very high that they will still be in code s next season. I definitely think last place should drop out of code s and 3rd place should go to the up and down matches. It that already were the case 4 terran , 3 protoss and 1 zerg would drop out of code s this season. And 2 terran, 3 protoss and 3 zerg would get into code s. and we would have 6 code s terrans, 1 code s protoss and 1 code s zerg in the up and downs and 3 code a terrans, 4 code a zergs and 1 code a protoss in the up and downs in a best case scenario 10 terrans could drop out of code s (4 would for sure) and only a minimum of 2 would get up to code s, so in a best case scenario the number of terrans, just after this season could already be reduced to 12. the way it is now we only have 4 code s terrans in the up and downs and 2 code a terrans. so even if all of them fail to qualify we would still have 16 terrans in code s and that is already the very best case scenario. if 4 of them fall out and 2 of them make it in we still have 18 terrans in code s, if all of them make it in we have 22 terrans in code s, whereas with the first system there would definitely be less terrans after this season. | ||

The first code S day was the most painful, with 7 terrans in 2 groups, but after that it was quite ok. (which is normal as 35% of the terran played in 25% of days) We had in GSL October : 19 TvT 3 ZvZ 1 PvP 19 TvP 22 TvZ 33 ZvP That's a lot of TvT in the mirror match group, but in the whole it's like 20% TvT overall, one game of five, it's not unbearable. Before the season started I was afraid of TvT saturation, but in fact I didn't really felt it. Unrelated : this month was played the 2000th GSL game  If this stat is true, then it really isn't the amount of TvT that people dislike. It's the amount of T. | ||

I dont find the GSL entertaining due to all the TVT's, period. Thats not punishment, its merely response to a fact.I seriously considered NOT buying a ticket this season, but I did, after all. It's depressing to watch almost every toss get their ass handed to them by Terrans, although some do deserve to lose as they were outplayed. I just wanted to watch what was left of the Protoss players, and I do like a good ZvX as well. There are still a few Protoss in Code A as well. Generally I will always buy a ticket because it's only 10 bucks for almost a months worth of entertainment and I'm supporting Esports by doing so. Seems like a win/win to me. I really wish something would change soon though in regards to the PvT matchup, but we need to realize it's not GOM's fault Terrans are dominating. We shouldn't punish them for it. | ||
