For me, he's very easy to understand and he adds a lot of character to the show. His experience as a Pro-Gamer living in Korea and the fact that he's Terran make him pretty perfect for the show, or so I feel.

Besides, it's nice to see a real nerd once in a while. Artosis and Cats and the other usual guests are far too well adjusted and groomed to deserve the classification, so having a person who literally only cares about Starcraft, with bad hygiene and worse physical shape, is pretty refreshing.

I think what made it kind of hard for a lot of people to value Major at this show is that this constant distraction with face animations and the lack of a livevideo to him does not bring out his personality very well. Ad on top of that that some people will already have some trouble understanding accents and I think it was very hard to follow what he was talking about for some.
Well, at least I liked him on the show, would love to see him again.

That's just gross and I hope that it does not describe Major at all.

Cool, it's on! But, I'm at work. Oh well, guess I'll just watch the vods when I get home.

Hopefully Artosis uploads them soon as.

I really like what Xeno said about WCS not actually getting the best players in WCS Season finals and such even tho Blizzard had been stating that was their goal. You get 5 or 6 absolute top tier Code S players, a few token foreigners, and some Code A/Code B rejects who moved for money. WCS Korea is still the highest level of competition for SC2, and the current system punishes low tier players in all the region. Honestly, as long as Korea has such a stranglehold on the best players, you will never have these global WCS events surpassing it. Region lock the whole thing and try to build up each scene so that they can actually start to build stronger players besides the occasional outlier player.
PartinG fanboy to the max, Rain/Squirtle/Dear/Scarlett/Bbyong are cool too. I don't always watch Dota2 but when I do I have no clue what's going on. GOGO POWER RANGERS

Who are the Code A/Code B rejects? TaeJa, Polt, and JD? MC and MMA?

Aside from Taeja/Polt, yes. MMA and JD almost certainly wouldn't be Code S contenders at this point, and they'd be middling Code A players at best in Korea. MC is a wildcard; sometimes he's good enough to play in Code A/Code S, but lately he hasn't been that strong.

Polt and Taeja would probably do fine in Code A and would have a decent shot at Code S.

Major is so good, hope he comes on more often. Funny, knowledgable and KeSPA insight, even if he complained way too much about Protoss (though that added to the humour :x).

I really agree with Xeno, he shares my view in that mech in SC2 just lacks the strategical depth if had in BW and in essence is just a deathball style that is highly immobile and thus, not very interesting. Unfortunately this isn't the sort of issue that can be resolved by just tweaking some unit stats or adding/removing a upgrade.

Really good episode, always both funny and informative.

MajOr was hilarious! I honestly don't know why, but when a player like IdrA (back when he was a progamer) discusses balance, I take him very seriously (while also keeping in mind that progamers are quite biased). On the other hand, when MajOr talked about Nexus Cannon and Protoss... I mean, I definitely agreed with some of his complaints but it was so fucking hilarious :D
