haha, the tension of the coin flip between the zerg player scoring the money neural or if the protoss will get the perfect flush of an archon toilet: PvZ during this era (like in that hero vs leenock game). It sucked in the sense that the game boiled down to that one moment at the end, but at the time, as a viewer, it was a real treat when the protoss pulled it off and beat the zerg down (I can recall at least one or two times it happened on daybreak)
it also sucked
because vortex

One of my deepest regrets is that I largely missed late WoL (I took a break from watching competitive SC for about a year around this time). Mostly because I really enjoy disastrousness in general. Heck, it's kind of indecent how much I enjoyed watching SH games with a LR thread full of people poking their own eyes out.
...I think I might be a bad person.
For me, though, the whole BL/Infestor thing always makes me remember how terrible literally everyone was in WoL Beta. I remember people complaining about how bad the Infestor was constantly, and Blizzard buffing it over and over again because no one was using it. They even put the fungal projectile thing in for a patch, and everyone literally lost their minds complaining about how hard it was to use now until they took it out again.
Anyway, I plan to take some time this weekend to catch up on what I missed. It'll be an Easter treat...or at least appropriate viewing for Good Friday.

tried to watch some of those games and im just stuck wondering do people actually find that shit entertaining? PvZ was mostly shit. TvZ could still be really good at times. Honestly, I didn't think the era was nearly as bad as people made it out to be. Blink era might be worse, with Maru and Polt being a major reason of making me think otherwise. balance-wise the blink era was far worse but in terms of how entertaining the meta was the BL/infestor era was the worst era in sc2 history without any competition.
I found BL games more entertaining than SH. But I can see why one might disagree.

Man...when random people like ViBE were a thing...

Wasn't DRG still trying to make muta/ling work during that era? Not to mention, nearly all of his accomplishments happened prior to BL/Infestor

It was a troll ^^

Wow, epic bump

I'm not sure if RorO should be ranked that high. He has been the best Zerg in Proleague for over 2 years ( 2012-13 and 2014 Proleague). While his results in the individual leagues weren't quite up to par, i would argue that him being the best Zerg in Proleague for a long time makes up for that quite a bit

Waiting for the update with Rogue replacing Sniper as #1

Mizenhauer's GOAT article mentioned Stuchiu's GOAT article and that reminded me of this article.
I thought it warranted a bump for those who are unaware of this genius piece of writing!

Younger wax could really pop off once he got into his bag.

Somehow missed this article when it came out. Still, when I read the title I immediately thought Sniper #1 for sure. Leaving satisfied.

Kind of forgot what a legendary thread this was, lol.

So good; especially stuchiu's portion.
