If you're not at Serral, Maru, Reynor or Clem level - you "don't matter"? What a nice take. And you want to watch endless PvP and PvX for most of the tournament until Ro8 starts?

Who cares about the mediocre ?... Only the top elite matters
If nobody cares about the mediocre, nobody should care about your opinion. Everyone that is not a Top 8 player is from now on banned of making balance-comments, deal?
In other news: it is incredibly stupid to look at one tournament and say "there, balance". Look how some of the protoss in Knockout-Stage got eliminated: herO beats Maru 3-2 and then loses to Heromarine 1-3. Harstem beats Reynor 3-1 and then loses to Oliveira 0-3. Creators wins slightly against Kelazhur and then loses also very slightly to GuMiho. Nothing of that screams "imbalance", though it might indicate some PvT-problems (though honestly, in which world do you beat Maru in a Terran-favored matchup and then lose horribly against Heromarine?).

Wait for IEM Firefly and maybe Stats or Hero or Showtime will practice 24/7 with especially Stats which compared to hero was a Korean macro monster let’s see after Katowice. Ladder is full of Toss. Buff them more low level play will not be fun anymore for T and Z.

After decades, how comments like this are able to avoid a quicker way to the archon toilet is beyond me; the interaction it receives is as perplexing as bible study on the daily.

For balance reasons obviously.... the top 10 only has Classic in it .. and at number 9 (i believe he is as good as the others but Protoss is weak)
The top 5 has 5 Terrans, 4 Zergs (number 1 and 3 tho), and 1 Protoss at 10...
IF you include top 20 its only marginally better, at 5 Protoss, only 1 top 10, 10 terrans, and 5 Zergs (But again the zerg are in the top 10, 4 out of 10, and the Best player is Zerg)

The balance council contains players who have played under a "TOSSOP" clan tag.
Balance changes since have been as you'd expect.
It's not worth worrying about. Either you have fun playing the game or you don't.

Are you talking about the Zerg Terran council?
|
Please undelete the broodlord is my request if you're reading community council.

Just what the council of pros and experts needed, a new account with a name that demands respect for their intellect and a huge ego (that also clearly means business because he uses bold text).
Thanks

The balance council needs to be renamed to the design council, because the game may be balanced fine, but that doesn't mean it's in a great state. (no protoss pros doing well, blah blah blah...)
Personally I would love for them to look at new protoss upgrades or some other new toy besides what they did to the mothership... Give players more chances to differentiate themselves. Or tone down Terran.
my two cents.

That being said, the prolonged hesitation to actually buff Protoss meaningfully is a mystery that I just can't wrap my head around. You damn well know players like Harstem and Rotterdamn are on the Balance Council, so it's just very bizarre to me that buffs weren't/aren't being pursued more aggressively.
ZvP seems mostly fine, but PvT is still an absolute mess for Protoss.
Oh stop kissing their ass. They literally buffed fucking widow mines last patch. The previous two patches were really good imo-this last patch, something has gone haywire and I'm glad people are still criticizing it.
Protoss got hugely buffed vs zerg via zerg nerfs.
But like you said, pvt remains ass. Which is weird because I don't think pvz was a problem to begin with.
