The biggest downside for me is that the Terran games are always so fun to watch regardless of the matchup. Supernova got 5th in the last sc2 OSL and was AZUBU's ace for GSTL IDK why you think it would be a surprise for him to go far :c | ||

I mean I guess he can pick Daedalus to help him but in the last week he went 8-10 in PvZ with wins vs Billowy and Paralyze in 2 bo3 each and losses to HerO, San, Squirtle, and Creator And for some reason he doesn't pick Daedalus - which makes things even worse. I mean, I'm happy he's confident enough to just skip the imbalanced map, but if he loses because of that, that'd be really bad.

It's a shame there aren't more terrans, though It's insanely exaggerated. Of all the PvZ's I've seen lately, a handful were this retarded SwarmHost vs Skytoss style. And even though it's stated so often: They can't just fix it, they'd have to rework the entire PvZ lategame and that definitely won't happen until LotV (unfortunately). And please Blizzard: delete Daedalus. I mean, it's okay for the ladder season, it's not that bad neither if there's a possibility to veto a map - but for a Bo3 without veto it's just plain stupid. | ||

Terran is just more entertaining to watch, because games are more volatile. PvZ is BO v BO till 12 minutes and afterwards its pretty easy to spot the winner. The amount of close PvP ZvZ PvZ games is WAY lower than the amount of close Tvx games Lol this is so incredibly biased it's ridiculous. Just because you play Terran, and enjoy watching Terran doesn't make it the favorite matchup of everyone to watch. Honestly, what matchup isn't BO vs BO for the early parts of the game? That's how they all work. "Almost every game had a terran in the top 40" is a major exaggeration, I personally love PvP and people who don't understand it or try to understand it just write it off. That's fine but I'll enjoy it while you guys go do something else. I enjoy everymatchup except maybe ZvZ just because I don't pick up on all the little nuances that I would watching the race I play, but it's like that for everyone, you just look at it in a much simpler way because you aren't used to all the little things that go into being a good player with that certain race or in that certain matchup. But anyway, Group A is a helluva group to kick things off with can't wait to see those players go at it. It's definitely my vote for group of death, all 4 of those players could end up RO8 or better, with DRG, Rain, herO probably some peoples picks to win it all or at least be there in the semi's. DRG has played much better so far in individual leagues but Rain hasn't been looking too good in Proleague or individual leagues since his win at the Hot6ix cup. Hoping herO advances <3 Supernova I think has a good chance to advance, and Maru I think will advance easily if he beats Classic, but if Classic wins it will be tough for him to beat 2 Zerg's in a row but luckily they aren't the best zergs. I think the RO16 will be quite balanced in terms of racial distribution, but I'm expecting a majority of Zerg's to advance. | ||

It's really shitty that Daedalus is still in the map pool, hopefully each player gets some vetoes? Not sure how the system is for picking maps in Code S this year but that is such an advantage for Zergs it's ridiculous. Blizzard really fucked up letting this map make it into the WCS map pool even though everyone and their mother knew it was going to be heavily favored for Zerg. | ||
