hellbat nerf = end of innovation

what do you expect? he was overhyped when he was mere patch terran champ who abused hellbat to death. He's only good for TvZ and that's it. Kinda like forgg who's only good at TvT but sux at other match ups. Era of Innovation was already ended the moment hellnerf implanted. I was sick of his hellbat abuse to mech push or cheese(2 frigging patterns all the time) in tvt anyway. Right now, he's still in round of 4 but you just watch. It will be lucky for him to make it to round of 8 from next season or drop down to code A and struggle there like startale life. Winning season 1 final was too good for patch terran champ anyway. MVP is sitll the king of terran. Innovation has a lot to prove for next 3-4 seasons at least by winning at least 1 or 2 more big championships in korea to be considered world's best. It was a bad joke calling him the best in the world when he abused hellbat and cheese to win his first and will be the only championship. Good bye innovation.

User was temp banned for this post.


Why was this guy banned? Seems like mods on here are getting bored these days.

Guys that get banned usually have received several warnings before their ban or straight up break the tl rules.

Here's why he was banned. Try checking out the thread when you're bored. It's pretty funny a lot of the time. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=32696&currentpage=1631#32607

I think innovation was overhyped due to casters. He had best winrate but he never was as dominant as flash or mvp.

It really sucks for him, people calling him patch-terran Its not his fault he knew better how to utilize helbats.

I read somewhere but I can't remember that Innovation admitted that the hellbat nerf affected his drop. BUT I do believe that Innovation is well capable of still doing great ! The future will decide. I will cheer for him

ffadicted was just temp banned for 2 weeks by Heyoka.

That account was created on 2011-01-04 10:58:41 and had 2720 posts.

Reason: "IF innovation doesn't get out of his group, I'll take a 2 week ban tbh.... I'm that confident the TL article is bullocks"

The gods of gambol have spoken.


Your right there are some really funny reason on to why ppl get Perma or temp Bans lol
thanks for sharing the link..

He was an above average player who knew how to utilize hellbats. He will fade into mediocrity, in my opinion.

It's funny when people say that because Bogus was actually very late to the hellbat punch so to speak and he was still very effective, but people seem to forget that.

I don't know which prediction is more bold. The idea of Maru not advancing out of groups (something I figured) or Bogus having a similar fate. Any given Sunday boys.

Technically everything you said is correct.

1. Innovation is definitely above average

2. Innovation definitely knew how to use hellbats

3. Everyone fades into mediocrity. Boxer, Yellow, Reach, Nada, oov, July, savoir, Bisu, etc. No one is dominant forever, and even legends retire and hang up their mouses, to make way for the new generation of players. The only question is how long one can stay relevant. I think Innovation is far from becoming irrelevant.
