Wait, a pro player thinks the race he plays is underpowered?!?

ALERT THE INTERNETZ!

Still nice to see his thoughts. I think the "elephant in the room" is about to get shot, dragged out, and made to look like a fool.


I think the only player who said their own race was overpowered was Genius around the time he won blizzard cup, he said protoss was the best race.

Also, the elephant is basically a rotting carcass at this point.

GSL WINS;
7 Terrans
5 Zergs
2 Protoss

ill just leave this here.


There are more Terran players than any other race therefore there's a higher chance of them winning the GSL.

Also, this last GSL had 3 protoss and 1 Terran in the top 4.



I hope you see the irony in you quoting ONE round of 4 racial distribution compared to him giving results for all GSL finals.....


For the record, I quoted ONE round because It's the most current round. The reason I didn't include the previous rounds is because Terran has had a lot of buffs removed since this recent patch. Therefore, the argument about which race has won the GSL the most is invalid because each season didn't have the same patch and in my opinion that makes a huge difference. Also, counting the GSL opens and first couple of GSL seasons don't even count (in my opinion) because nobody even knew how to play the metagame at that time. If you want to do the statistics about which race won the GSL the most (regardless of patch) I would start with the GSL's played in 2012 and forward because we can't really make a comparision until at least two more rounds of GSL are played (on the same patch) then I feel that should be an efficient enough sample size to do the statistics and analysis on.

So then by your way of measuring protoss has 0 GSL wins? you sure make a strong case


You can't make a strong case if races have received match altering buffs and de-buffs. It's just my opinion though.

This thread is awful.

"Do you know anything about the other teams?
I heard Woongjin's (Z)Neo.G_Soulkey was good. The others are an unknown quantity. It's all a secret. Everything is kept under wraps. Even between friends. I think everyone's just pretending (to be crying).

Aren't you pretending as well?
I could be pretending as well or I might not be. It's true that I'm lacking in skills at the moment though."

If the "pretending (to be crying)" means what I think it does, then Flash is obviously just trolling in this interview. I have no clue why everyone is taking this shit so seriously.

What do you called a people who are playing an OP race, keep whinning and cannot accept the truth?





A Protoss Player!




Seriously, what did Protoss did wrong in the early life that he deserve this kind of attitude player playing his race now?

ps: I'm just telling the truth, have to ps here first b4 ban incoming...
Marine is Terran strongest unit but it might be Terran's biggest weakness. Bcos of Marine so OP, other Terran unit regrettably have to be weak..

Are you sure youre not talking about the race who won 50% of all GSL tournaments yet still cries like babies when theyre not completly dominating like they are used to do?

That just degraded him about 5 levels in my book. Claims hes a noob and still complains about balance like that. Jesus didnt he learn anything about professionalism through all years of BW?

by noob he probably means not top level player like mvp, etc.
by noob he does not mean a bad player, aka vast majority of people on these (and similar) forums.

and anyway, toss being op will not stop Flash from winning every each one of unworthy sc2 leagues :>>

it doesn't take a wizard to see that the matchup is tough for terran in the lategame... think about, logically, what compositions are going against each other.

he has strong understanding of the gameplay without knowing the game specifically inside and out.

That's 1 tournament. Besides the 5 korean terran gods (mvp, polt, mma, mkp and alive/jakji), every other terran (except thorzain and select) is suffering hard. High master / grandmaster terrans are suffering hard too.

Whether he's trolling or not, I don't see a reason to take his words seriously (even a god can have a sense of humor). I'm waiting for his games rather the balance discussion since we have already too much of this here on TL forums.

What the hell are you talking about 'suffering hard'. Thorzain just won Dreamhack!

Ok, my mistake. Didn't read properly. But what foreign protoss has won a major tournament this year?

edit- also it was interesting to me that in the one major tournament that didn't feature Koreans (The Gathering) terrans took 1st, 2nd and 3rd places. That doesn't sound like the foreign terrans are doing too bad to me.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/GOMTV_Global_Starcraft_II_League#GSL_Events
Terran 6 - 4 Other
So the correct stat is that Terran won 60% of the GSLs so far, not 50%.
