User was warned for this post
Lately?
When the LOTV Beta came out many knew that Adept is the key unit in the PvX games. I thought it to be way too strong back then (and in my ladder it still is, but that has nothing to do with balance on a pro-level)
There is two ways to think of it:
The negative one: Adept is simply too powerful and imba and Blizz is simply waiting too long again for "the meta to evolve" instead of patching them out OR
the positive one: the Adept is what the Marine is to the Terran. Although the protoss had that with the zealot, Toss needed a buff on the gateway unit in order to make the other units weaker (e.g. Colossus).
I am unsure: for one I hate the adept (too ez to use, too high damage output if it "gets in" somewhere), but on the other hand I like that IT FEELS NOW (not saying that it was that way before) toss have to do more now for the victory then just make a big army ball and crush you and you could in some situations not do anything about that if you had a race with an inferior lategame (e.g. Terran), therefore you always played against a clock/timer in order to kill the Toss before he reaches endgame

You just need a bigger sidebar that can show a whole text like "Results of the Kespa Cup group C are out! Find out how many Koreans MarineLorD slayed HERE!!!"

He never said that the number of Koreans he can slay isn't 0, don't be too harsh.

Welfare-craft is working so well... I'm glad to see xenophobic hatemongering worked out so well for this scene.

Neeb moved on in first and we still get to see Nerchio. Marinelord going out wasn't a surprise. He's just not in the same tier of skill and consistency as players like Neeb, Nerchio, and Snute.

I agree with your sentiment that the adept let the game evolve to a better state. I honestly like the direction bliz took p in lotv, when I lost to p in hots it often felt like they would win without realy having to have the same skillet as other players. I would on occasion run into high masters protoss with 80 apm who just knew how to exicute a cheese well.
Now p feels like it has an appropriate level of difficulty the cheeses are a bit less consistent, the macro play requires more than the simple get 3+collosi and storm than win that characterized old protoss. In general the adept has been realy healthy for the game. I think the only problem it posses is that adept timings tend to be a bit on the strong side. I honestly think this is more a problem with warp prisms than adepts, p needs adepts to function in lotv and in most situations there the strong protoss footman that p needed in exchange for collosi nerfs.

I don't want to sound rude, but making it so that people can't visit your site at all during ongoing events for fear of spoilers isn't really a solution either.

Why not bookmark whatever place it is you use for VODs and watch them first lol.

mlord was a bit unlucky in his builds :/
|
at least Mlord tried and he actually showed good games, especially g1 against Trap. not sure about his reaper builds but those builds always look genius when succesful and horrible when they fail. definitely a good performance by him despite the losses.

How come the VODs/replays aren't uploaded yet on eSportstv youtube page? Normally they're uploaded pretty quickly.
EDIT: Nevermind, it's on eSportsTV_Global youtube channel.

And Rogue said if he won't run into too many Terrans he might win the Kespa Cup, he went 0-4, but no one speaks to that, because so much of the focus is on the foreigners. They are in the minority and all progamers that aren't absolute legeds take time to adjust to the booth.

out of curiousity, do you get a lot more clicks from these spoiling titles than say "KeSPA CUP Day 3" or KeSPA CUP Group A results"?

The people who want to complain about getting spoiled alone are already helping
