and since he now is already qualified for the next GSL, i hope that he will come back, with this lvl of play, he surley belongs there

This was last season for this year, so unless they change something, he will have to go trough qualifiers again.

Yah TVT is the most tolerable mirror imo

Does the meta have changed ? Last TvT i've seen was cyclon vs cyclon... Worst MU.

PvP is always kind of fun to watch, and ZvZ althought anyone start saying "I don't want to watch it", at the end they say "Woo actually the games were good".

When you saw TvT on HOTS, TvT on LOTV is horrible.

Whenever I tune into ZvZ I regret it. Doesn't help that ZvZ is by far the most played mirror.

TvT early game is retarded, but once it gets past the Cyclone mono-battle stage and into the marine-tank-liberator-viking-raven mid-game it can be very entertaining, especially if both players are skilled (read Korean).

PvP is surprisingly good because watching disruptors blow shit up never gets old.

Two terrans are using proxy builds and everyone freaks out that the whole meta has changed.

Relax and give it a month or two.

Weve seen exciting tvp with attacks on multiple fronts for the entirety of sc2. ..has literally nothing to do with proxy.

Exactly. Because there is no proxy meta. Games are exciting and fun because of the core SC2 design some people (who just don't want to git gud) are still bitching about. Such kind of games are DIRECT sequence of the the SC2 being left alone w/o patches for a year and players trying out different stuff and having enough time to practice it. I hope it will last.

I can paraphrase it for you exclusively: How come your gamebreaking proxy meta actually produced quality games?

Yah sorry man cant really get behind this. 3 of the 4 horsemen are doing nothing but proxy vs toss for better part of a month. You are delusional to say there "is no proxy meta".
Second wrong thing you said which makes me curious if you are messing w me is the game has been left alone for a year?? Wtf u been lol? Multiple patches each season of gsl so far.
Third question:
I never said its impossible to make an exciting game out of a proxy opener. What i said was that proxy openers should not be the standard play in any matchup. Contrary to a few peoples posts here, i strongly believe the meta is a symptom of how stupid the matchup has gotten to play standard.
Hopefully the kids abusing it on ladder trying to promote from bronze cheering on this meta wont distract blizzard from actually trying to fix the matchup.

this website needs to stop spoiling stuff so quickly after the air date. It's hard to watch it live for most of the world and it's also hard to avoid TL if you want to know upcoming events. Some sort of spoiler tag or something in the title would be great, since you could still write the article....

Ric Flair and Arn Anderson do not proxy.

its nice to see the proxy strategy by terrans force the protoss out of the "i will always expand at teh start no matter what" mindset.
