Maybe the P race doesn't have the same appeal. For me, sc is all about evil humans fighting badass insects, and then some alien guy who wasn't invited to the party shows up and fire his laser. More seriously, TvZ has always been the royal matchup in the sc universe, the matchup in which the bw bonjwas became bonjwa, meanwhile P players failed to build such story lines. Maybe this is a legacy from bw, but if TvZ in sc2 looks fucked as it is now, and as it was in early wol, then people will be more likely to go apeshit because this match-up is sc2's main event. If P is struggling, well that's unfortunate but less of a news.
I'm a racist cunt.

At least now I don't have to stay up late watching the finals. I'm glad HotS is coming because now maybe another race will stand a chance. Sucks though that GSL is ending so anticlimatically, but oh well.
Don't worry, Terran will be OP in Hots, Zergs will complain the world Over about T, Terran will laugh at all the Zergs for being "revealed for how bad they are". And Protoss will just continue to accept that we will always be the worst of the three races no matter what because we don't whine loud enough to Blizzard even when there's only one of us in the last 2 of the 3 GSL ro8.

It's quite sad too, people saying that TvZ is the best matchup is more of a carryover from BW and early 2012 SC2 than any actual truth. TvP has been the best-designed and most dynamic matchup for almost a year now, super early pressure is still viable, armies are constantly moving around the map, there's a ton of multitasking, and it's well balanced.

Well when there aren't any of them in Code S at the end of WoL, yea they will all have a ton of free time to practice Hots. We might win a few tournaments at the start of Hots because we all gave up on our race having a chance in WoL months ago. Just wait when the other races who can actually compete in WoL make the switch.

You complain about people complaining, when you are actually complaining more than any T or Z I have ever seen.

I think it's safe to say now that Roro's superpower is not giving a fuck to any curses and always winning.

So true. TvZ hasn't been the main matchup for a long time imo. It's hard to watch any matchup involving zerg right now. In terms of ranking matchups on balance, watch-ability and play styles, I think:
1. TvP 2. TvT 3. TvZ 4. PvZ 5. ZvZ 6. PvP

oh man people are ridiculous. Taeja played straight up bad today bar the first game, and he 100% deserved to lose the next 4 games, roro was simply the better player. The infestor got a seriously needed nerf, but surprise- the MUCH better player today happens to be zerg- "infestor was never the problem, its the queens/ snipe/ bfh whatever". This is crazy. Balance is not a reason why taeja lost, so why talk about it? Someone rightfully pointed out that if it was not roro, but lets say Life or DRG, people would just say that they were simply outclassing taeja. Meanwhile roro has taken out parting, life, mvp, mc and now taeja in a single gsl, what more could you possibly ask for?. Stop being so butthurt and accept that he is not inferior to other zergs, in fact he ends WoL as the zerg to beat. Past achievements are cool for history talk, but with the end of WoL it comes down to symbol and roro, who were simply the best zergs this season. Its not really an opinion, they are the only two people left standing after all. Give them some goddamn credit, they were after all better than any other zerg participating.

At the end of WoL I am actually unable to watch any Z matchup, including TvZ... that's just sad.
Cheers to the end of infestors, and the beginning of blinding cloud!

It's just frustration, Protoss hasn't done anything, and yet all I read in LR threads like this is how bad Terran is. You guys are fine.

i wonder how many of the whiners actually watched the games.

'I'm so surprised that the finals will be ZvZ' - Nobody
|
8 out of the top 10 of KR TLPD is zerg now Q_Q CODE Z
|
Sigh... Second GSL final in a row I won't be watching. I'll probably find out the results during the TL recap or interview...

Yeah I fully agree and most people think the same way I guess. Despite being limited on tech choice (no mech or skytoss), TvP is tense and action-packed.

TvT is easily better than TvP. TvZ was far superior to TvP when mutalingbling vs marinetank existed.

Another GSL finals that I will happily skip. See you in HOTS.

Also in WoL I think a majority of neutral(non-players/randomers) spectators prefer to watch PvT.
I just think the Protoss are 10x more badass than Terran/Zerg in all ways so I'm pretty biased, anyway! :D
But there's a reason why they save the coolest race for the last expansion. The final bossssss is always the strongest!
