I think the warning was for the random image meme. They want to discourage that, or the threads get clogged up with random pictures easily. Also: MVP what gumiho?? >_> MVP

I've always been super impressed with Trap's play, really think he will stomp Shine, unless some kind of imbalance comes into play.
|
The popular opinion, restated by Korean pros recently, is that T>Z>P>T. I think most people would agree that this really matters when players are close in skill level.
One match-up on Day 1 was TvT, so at least 1/3 Terrans would advance. The other two matchups were TvZ, which Terran won in both cases, supporting popular opinion.
Day 2, we have another TvT. So, regardless of all other matchups, both days were setup to have at least one Terran advance regardless of all other results. If we predicted Day 2 based on balance perceptions-alone, we'd expect to see two Terrans advance (TvT and TvZ) and one Zerg (Z>P).
Far too early to comment on balance in this tournament, though.

seriously what is with the intro of this post? is the author seriously implying imbalance with a sample size of 3 series, one of them being a tvt?

So Maru is a chicken because he chickened out of something I guess? And they decided to mock him by adding it to the team name? What's next? Jin Air smellyGumiho Trap?

GumiHo looked good last time I saw him.
I think he lost 2:3 to Snute, but he was playing pretty strong. Or maybe that was TRUE. Don't remember, but I think GumiHo vs Dark is going to be interesting

I think it would be more like "TowelGuMiHo"
He needs a towel sponsorship.

Rule 1 of Code S: Code S is always Code S Rule 2 of Code S: If you predict the winner at the beginning of the season, you are a fucking wizard...harry
