I'm probably gonna end up buying it by the end, i'm just lazy and already payed 5 for AoL. I'm not too loose with my money, even when it comes to not hurting eSports.

Well infact when you think about it, while GOM obviously isn't responsible, maybe they can help?

Gretech is in the position of being maybe the only ones who can actually bring up balance issues to them if it's identified exactly whats wrong. Maybe they will do infact. Getting statements from every player and what they think and making some kind of appeal to Blizzard. I mean i don't think it's likely but i think they are in a unique position of possibly being able to help bring change.

After all i'm sure Blizzard wants their game to be doing as successfully as possible as an eSport. They are in business together and i don't know how Gretech profits from things (maybe mainly with the media player), but better race distribution would be a good start in making and keeping it entertaining which would benefit everyone.

I didn't buy this season bc it airs at 4am where I live and I simply don't have enough time in the day to catch up on all the Vods.

I'll buy it if at least one of DRG, MMA, Nestea, Losira, MVP, Killer, or Clide make it to the finals.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I know, rite?

As to what GOM can do (in the realm of fairness)... Not sure.

Maybe allow 2 people to fall out of Code S per group instead of 1 (like before)?

But with Terran's strength in current Metagame that might not help (though this Code A season says differently).

Also, that would eliminate the "stability" of the players involved in the tournament; not allowing individual players to have stories that grow over time.

Last season was the first season I bought the GSL, and I was fairly angry because I just watched every Zerg player get ripped apart by hellions, every Protoss get 1-1-1'd, and every TvT was at a standstill because of hellions. I MIGHT buy next season, but I'm not sure yet. It just wasn't fun from a spectator's point of view.

I was considering buying for the first time, but I was turned off by the excessive TvT.

I am enjoying it so far.

And only half the remaining matches or so are TvT, it's just worth it for that other 50% anyway.

QTIP.

Sounds like GomTV need to start inputting maps that favour zerg and protoss. It's the way they balanced the game in BW and it may be what they need to do now.
Anything can be acheived through persistence and thought

I usually get code S, I like everything except pvp, so I'm fine with less P players. Didn't get it now cos of busy uni sched. Don't get code A cos of casters.

GOM can just make P favored maps.
The problem of protoss is a little their fault, because they introduced some good ZvT maps, but those maps revealed to be terrible maps for protoss in all matchups (dual sight, bel'shir beach I'm talking about YOU. Even crossfire that was introduced as a protoss favored map happened to be, in practice, a zerg favored map).
This season they started to fix that, by making Terminus a good protoss map, by closing the natural of bel'shir, and by introducing daybreak. But dual sight is still here and every protoss has played it this season ><

Seriously i believe its more fun to watch if there is a clearly misrepresented race

gsl open 1 and 2 were really interesting because terrans dominated and zergs were considered weak, gsl open 3 was interesting because finally a protoss tear shit apart

maybe sage, oz and killer will dissapoint but im still confident that we will get some entertainment value out of em
