The expansion should have been called "Death of the Swarm, Rise of the PatchToss"

You do realize that HotS isn't actually a patch?

So PvZ has basically reversed, now the Protoss has the nearly invincible deathball while Zerg has to route around and find any weakpoint, and one bad engagement means death.

Well, except Protoss isn't weak while getting the deathball.


and the deathball is way scarier.

Not to mention more mobile, and the ability to recall at any time makes it a lot more prone to be aggressive.

In other words, it's far, far beyond the capabilities/potential of a brood lord/infestor death ball.

Didnt the developers say they would make deathballs ineffective on hots at some point? Deathballs dont seem dead to me.

Man, I have to say that Tastosis casting + Apollo at the analysis desk is pretty much the best tournament coverage I can imagine. They're all so good, and cover the spectrum of information and entertainment really well.

I guess the only other piece of the puzzle might be Day[9] or Hotbid doing player interviews, but I'm not complaining at all.

I'm sorry but what is this constant stupid talk about the "first HotS tournament ever lbabla" when there was IEM just a few days ago?


Standard Tasteless. Hype the shit out of the tournament you are at.


lets bring the pitchforks; someone is doing their job


What about straight up saying bullshit is their job? It isn't. There's enough other ways to hype it, we needn't completely ignore IEM which has pretty much the exact same build as far as multiplayer is concerned. T

Other random stats that HotS has produced thus far:

Computer 1-0 MMA
Computer 1-0 Madbull
Rocks 1-0 Supernova
Choya 1-0 MKP


The Rocks were so awesome ... Supernova will avoid chokes like this forever now.

If I sit back and you build 20 archons you also have a deathball. What´s the point of your post again?
