Thankfully Blizzard actually is planning on nerfing infestors heavily while buffing other zerg units. I am really hopeful for HoTS.

well i havent played for a long while, but it does seem like the patch-zerg phenomena is real enough. Not sure what's the answer for it though, if they nerf the infestor Zerg would have no chance against Protoss deathballs. IIRC that was the very reason they buffed it in the first place.

Also, addressing the last part, what u write is ridiculous, but the facts u base it on are clear. Fans want to see storylines and heroes.
EDIT: i might have been trolled, or failed to catch the sarcasm of the whole blizzard-rigged-the-game. I'm still unsure.
On a second read, yeah, failed to catch the joke.

I already told Ver that probably only a very small fraction of people reading it will actually get it.

Biased, but overall interesting and well written.

Connecting "fungal is good" with decreasing viewership is really funny though :D. You would probably see no difference in numbers of viewers if ZvT were perfectly balanced around muta/ling/bling. Just people not watching game when it gets older and people switching to moba.

Saying fungal is boring in ZvZ is your just opinion. Inf/brood vs Inf/brood looks fine to me too.

The first part of this post is pretty good. But making statements like:
Blizzard purposefully rigged the game to ensure the maximum number of white victories over Koreans

is absolutely ridiculous, and honestly, pretty dumb, if you can't provide any actual evidence for it. I assume you weren't completely serious, but that doesn't change it a single bit.

I do fully agree however, that the game was a lot more enjoyable as a spectator in the second half of 2011. May HotS save us all.

i say we just remove the zerg race from the game. simple as that. at least then i'll stop seeing "omg Z is..." threads.

at first I thought this was a rage thread, then realized there were actually statistics and logic. I really don't think Blizzard is conspiring about white man winning.

I read the whole thing. It all makes sense now, how could we have been so blind.

Those graphs are great by the way.

Exactly my thoughts when I was reading, but I'm pretty sure he knew that from the start. Also makes the comments so much sweeter. *putsontinfoilhatandsitsbesidesver*

edit: how is that report for racism coming along?

That's a good thing. While the OP itself is gold, the replies will make this thread diamonds.

This has taken the place of my favourite thread on Team Liquid.

I enjoyed reading that OP immensely.
