The real question is, what will David Kim do to the bunker if next season we have 0 terrans.

In contrast to a few years ago, A TvT finals would make it the best season ever.

It comes and goes people! Everyone has highs and lows.


It is not that simple. How many patches were introduced between then. How many new things protoss got in Hots compare do WoL?

It wasn't a rough time in a balanced game, protoss was UP and they got a lot of buffs since then.

His point is that every race has highs and lows but usually they will bounce back, either on their own or with help from Blizzard. When Protoss got to this state, Blizzard was forced to take action about it because they weren't bouncing back on their own (1/1/1 was really good). I imagine the same will happen for Terran. It looks insanely bad for them to have it so one race in their game is vastly underrepresented.

Though the suggested changes they have on a test map don't exactly solve anything. The timewarp change might help but it doesn't solve the issue of the mothership core being the all-seeing spy satellite that can see way further than it should and enabling blink all-ins to be far easier than before. And I say that as a Protoss player. Whenever I see it play out it feels very 1/1/1ish. You can scout it coming, prepare and still get destroyed by it if you make a single mistake. No matter what the percentages say, that isn't a healthy matchup.

I hope Maru wins this one. This GSL will be a true test of raw skill.

"Final day of Code A sees Terrans fail to advance." I'm not sure why this needed to be in big letters on top of the article, or even mentioned at all. It's extremely leading and unprofessional, in my opinion. People can see for themselves.

Regardless, the distribution is a bit worrisome, but hopefully it will change next season!

If a Terran wins, its not a balance issue any more. Only skill will advance in this season's Code S.

They should do a TvT only tournament with the prize being Jjakji's spot in Code S.

Indeed. WaxAngel's job is to poke fun at everything. He's doing quite well. I wonder how his Kickstarter is going :D

All we need now is 3 terrans in one group and a strong vT with them. Maru would most likely make it out and win the season anyways
If that happens I will LOL for days months years deades

The worst thing is that there is very high chance for the next season to be like this as well.

If they follow me the same format then in Code A there is going to be 24 players from Code S in the Round of 48, so it will already be stacked with Protoss and Zerg.

Maru gets killed in a TvT in the Ro32 or in a Soulkey match in Ro16 anyways because gom is so good at building groups

I didn't say anything about it being balanced then or balanced now. Being "underpowered" would fall under a race "low".
