It wasn't terrible like Inca vs Nestea, but it was so boring that MVP went 1 rax expo, then 2fact bf hellion into mech or 1/1/1 into mech every single game. Every game MVP lost was for the same reason, and every game he won he was able to kill a bunch of drones early. Was so hyped for this finals, pretty disappointed.

Absolutely agree with these. MvP hardly showed any of the brilliant flexibility him and his race are known for. His defence was also so solid that it made Life's exciting lingbling composition useless, forcing him to go for 3 of the most boring units: Infestors, roaches and broodlords. I will remember this finals for this: I started off wanting Life to win because of the Royal Road, his young age and for no more KongTale (my fave team). However, As the series progressed I began wanting MVP to win, just because of how retarded Infestor-broodlord is, both entertainment-wise and balance-wise. Conclusion: Not a very entertaining finals due to the army compositions used by both sides. Happy for Life, but man, zerg's "win-composition" has to be the most boring yet. I hate broodlords so, so, so very much. | ||

Would brood lords be more exciting if they fired tank shells instead? Just make them a guardian? Or maybe if they spewed out my little ponies or something. Seriously. I can totally understand wanting a balanced game, but to complain that a unit "isn't exciting enough" is pretty lame imo. Thors are just a boring, only their attacks "explode" so people like them more for some reason?? bleh.... Awesome to see a 15 year old champ, again, congratz to Life! | ||

Also, I feel bad for blizzard... not only are they tasked with balancing SC2 (not an easy task), but apparently they should be making units "exciting" as well.

Broodlords don't only launch projectiles, they launch little 0 food, 0 cost units that dish out massive damage in numbers, get upgrades, restrict movement, and come in droves. Combined with infestors, who ALSO have an AOE spell for restricting movement, and what do you get? An army that you can't even micro against. Yipee. This promotes deathball vs deathball. It's not only not exciting, it's downright boring and retarded, also frustrating to fight against. | ||

Also, I wish there was more "adapt and overcome" instead of "cry for balance". | ||

They are a massive improvement over the Brood War guardian (this coming from somebody who prefers BW to SC2, by the way). I'd say the blame falls on the Infestor and its overpowered, gimmicky spells. | ||
