I dont think gom can do much....except change the map pool...but the maps arent really an issue in terms of balance imo (every race have a slightly favored map)....they did give away an entire tournament for free if you bought all the previous seasons (Arena of Legends)....If you hate TvTs watch that instead....I guess.....

There is no other options for the following:

3) When did you stop buying GSL? (This would be my option, for me it was when IPL and NASL started and filled my needs for top tier games)
4) I've never purchased GSL

yeah same. just bought a ticket recently, and it seems like the best decision i can make. Protoss needs pointers now more than ever, and there's so few games where protoss players do well that they're really easy to find. guess you get less content, but it seems like the only place to get the top notch stuff... and at a time when i need it.

I don't blame anyone though. Hope GSL figures this out, since they're pretty much supporting pro gamers it's understandable they want to protect the Code S'ers. I wonder if they just made the tournament bigger... or a losers bracket... atleast then we could see some pvzs xD

the gsl can do nothing against it, it's just how the game currently is in Korea.

TvT is the most skill based and entertaining match up

But I suppose just zvz and pvp where the guy with 2-4 more roaches/stalkers can a-move win(as long as his timing/control isn't borderline retarded) is what most people want.

as a protoss player i've basically came to understand in korean tournaments that protoss isn't always going to have a high representation... however i sitll find zvt pretty interesting to watch out of non-p matchups... but not enough to buy a pass

need more protoss to do well, don't think its an imbalance issue

I think paypal handles the payment but you don't have to "use" paypal. It's like paypal is the bank or the payment processor.

This poll is pretty flawed, needs a third option - "Did not buy for other reasons". I bet the majority of voters who didn't buy, didn't base their decisions upon racial diversity.

First time I haven't bought a pass since I started watching over half a year ago. I can't say 100% of it was just tvt. Probably 75% of that was tvt, but the other 25% was just I started college again and during the first month or two I'm just too busy to justify paying for it.

TvT most skilled based match up? Please explan! Do you think a TvZ, TvP, ZvZ, PvP is not skill based like a TvT at the level of the players in Code S? In Code S competing the best players of the world.

Major poll fail.

For all the complaints about Terrans, Code A is still better than any other league, outside Code S. Code A alone is worth it. This season has had some of the most innovative protoss games. Sage, JYP, and Oz all playing solid protoss in Code A. Curious is stomping people, potential top 5 zerg in the world. We saw some success by team Dignitas. Select v Alicia was amazing play by both players.

Code S has MVP v Bomber in ro16, then winner might play Nestea in bo5. No more BFH in TvT. We already saw Nestea v MMA. We're seeing this new mech build against zerg that Nada did. Just last night, we saw Killer's PvT against Polt. A new composition to handle that terran 2-base push plus harass on BB. It has some risks, but given Polt's style, it counters it hard.

When you pay for GSL, you're getting the best AND the second best leagues in the world. Try watching these other leagues. The difference in the quality of play is so clear, even to my gold and plat friends.

Less QQ, more pew pew.

I like watching games in my spare times >.>

I also really enjoy watching the Code A newcomers each season

(I've bought/shared every ticket except the very first GSL)

I paid last season, but I hardly watched it so I saw no point in renewing. For me it's mostly because I feel no particular connection to most of koreans. I just enjoy the foreign scene a lot more, even if the players are worse.
