Incidentally I'm not a DRG fanboy. The closest I come to being a fanboy is with HerO, Grubby or Polt

I just think DRG is a mechanics monster who, bar being strategically retarded should get gains from that.

"To summarize, Blizzard has deliberately designed SC2 over the past eighteen months so that foreigners can beat Koreans regularly, despite their general inferiority in skill."
Music to everyone terran's ear. Did a zerg just beat you? Don't worry it is not your fault a no skill zerg can beat you it is the way the game is designed to be.

I doubt Ver influenced Blizz's decisions in the most recent patch. Not because they're ignorant, they suck, etc., but because this was posted an hour before Ver posted:

Very informed and thought provoking post. Clearly you put a lot of work into this and the evidence you bring up is cause for action from Blizzard and other prominent members within the community. I have but two complaints about the whole post but overall I agree with most of your main points.
1. Referring to all foreigners as "white" may be a little off of politically correct or even factually accurate. It also begs the question, if everyone else is white, Koreans are?? This essentially calls them yellow which is kinda racist
2. The Ryung vs Sniper pictures were a bit misleading. Sniper already had a huuuuge lead before the horribly cost inefficient fight he took on Daybreak with ultra/ling/infestor and the "phalanx" of tanks was two.
Besides that great post and I hope people who have the power to change things see this. FOR TERRAN! FOR ESPORTS!

All those zergs in this thread that try to convince themselves that all of this is not true xD
Still haven't seen a post trying to refute any actual point of the article tho. (ho yes, there is some people that try to say that the "white theory" is dumb so certainly all the facts of the op are false).
Everyone who still watches sc2 knows all of this to be very accurate, except some zergs that still prefer to see their race winning than to play a good game.

The worse in all of this is that people still cry about losing to 4 hellions before queen patch, explaining they don't want it to be reverted because of that, forgetting that you only lost against 4 hellions if you were terribly greedy. But being greedy without possible consequence is a divine right of zergs players brainwashed by 2 years of Idra qq I guess. wE wAnT mAcRo gAmEz so let's be patched until we can macro without unit in 100% of the games ! People who still defend the queen patch is why we can't have nice things, or perhaps they weren't around when sc2 was actually enjoyable to watch, or perhaps they don't care as long as they see foreigner zergs winning vs korean terrans at every lan. This is payback for all those months of imba terrans beating zerg, am I right. This is deserved. And lets forget that 50/50, for most zergs, is when the matchup was "terribly imbalanced". Like Antiga nowadays ! That freaking 50/50 terran map.

I would have enjoyed a more neutral version of this write-up, but its bias and racism (in-game and out-of-game) bothers my stomach. Disgusting form, despite the good points it elucidates.

Its about racial distribution in starcraft

Blizzard trying to make 60:40 ratio between whiteman and Koreans.

This post includes full of sarcasm. Can't you see it?

I just have one thing to say after this massive read...

Not the best timing to post this
+ Show Spoiler +
Fungal Growth: Is now a projectile. Speed of the projectile is 10. Range down to 8.
Infested Terrans no longer gain weapon and armor upgrades. Infested Terran egg health down to 70.

I think that the fundamental problem with Fungal lies in its mechanics. Preventing spells and ability usage is enough, no need to completely render the units immobile. Instead of immobilizing the units, applying something like 40-50% slow would do the trick imo. That way you can still chain fungal but at least it would require a bit skill to do it.

It's an interesting read, but it is difficult to tell at certain parts if the author is serious and insane or just being satirical. There are a lot of good points (Zerg dominance is worldwide whereas Terran dominance was almost entirely exclusive to Korean Terrans), but the conspiracy stuff is pretty silly.

Obviously the ending plea is satire, but where exactly does what the author truly believes stop and the nonsense begin?

"All of this" includes the conspiracy nonsense, so no, I disagree. Almost everything he says about game balance is true, and his statistics are interesting, but he starts to get into like "meta-conspiracy" levels of stupid when he claims Blizzard only nerfed Fungal way back when to throw people off of the trail of the conspiracy.

It could have been an amazing article (which is what I thought about 1/3 of the way through), but it is really just fairly mediocre.

Don't have to name them.

Basically any Zerg who plays consistently terribly in a fundamental way that still can beat top players.

(Hint, Nerchio, Stephano and Scarlett are not patchzergs)

What is funny about this thread is if you recall the 2011 mlg Anaheim the koreans rolled everyone with blue flame drops.
This was the first big foreigner beat down in a while. All but a few white dudes were left in code a. Instantly, blizz brings in the nerf hammer. 8 months of this infestor garbage watching players like mvp lose to nerchio, who had his army in one hotkey and sacrificed lings inefficiently all game . Sorry to say it but besides stephano and scarlett its all patchzerg. What happened to Jinro i want patch terran .
