There is too little Zest in it but I forgive you because you made very good points about god sOs. He knows how to turn his gambles into $$$

The article was well written but I don't think there will ever come a time where I think it isn't the worst MU (let alone a good one) but thats just personal opinion | ||

Watching lots of elfi and welmu has definitely increased my appreciation for the MU :D | ||

I remember watching IEM WC 2014 live, and how the whole crowd was rooting for her0 and felt robbed of great games because of that "stupid, no-skill proxy rushes" whlist I was purely amazed how well did sOs prepared for that final and how he went total bedlam in her0's mind. Also I love sOs so I was really happy seeing him win PvP is less about robotic execution of builds, it's more about reading your opponent, through his playstyle, his habits and behaviour under pressure, find tendencies and inclination he may have and use that knowledge against him. That's why that matchup is the best in long BOX series, rather than BO1 on ladder | ||

I was just sitting on my chair frozen and thinking how awesome is that. sOs had balls of steel. And if we cut end of the wol out, PvP has always been my best mu. So maybe that is one of the reason I think PvP is the best mirror. PvP has been so logical to me always. At least in WoL there was clear build/units that won other units. Somebody goes blink --> I go robo. elfi king of the PvP! He peaked 70% winrate in PvP during WoL I'm pretty sure you're confusing PvP with TvT here But yeah PvP is now a better mirror then it was several years ago, at least you don't have 1 unit blobs crash into each other trying to see which is bigger. | ||

It has also gotten a LOT better in HotS. I don't dread getting a PvP on ladder anymore the way I used to. TvT, PvP > ZvZ imo. Once you get past ling bane micro it's just giant groups of 1-2 unit types A-moving at each other until the bigger one wins. ZvZ is actually better in LotV IMO with the introduction of the Lurker and the new economy forcing you to expand more (which makes Muta more viable as a way to deny them and get ahead). | ||

I think if you believe that pvp is coinflip, u should go allin every game. Also if u have no gambling in your strategy, u can go allin too :p I'll never count wol era because it wasnt really entertaining. PvP is bit better now that midgame is more stable, still waiting for lategame^^ but if you look at other MU they all have their downside dead zvz (plz banneling micro plz banneling micro^^) or mirror 1-1-1 for terran. And that's what i like about pvp, u have to choose your decisions | ||

It's really not, but that's okay, you were just baiting anyway =p I also like all the rationalization going on when most people who don't enjoy PvP don't enjoy it because it's composed of a protoss playing another protoss, pretty much in the same way I don't enjoy TvT because I don't like terran design and I hate most terran players. | ||

Say what? I actually like watching TvT and PvP. To me ZvZ is just not entertaining. Sure there is skill involved. But visually it just looks like two blobs puking on each other until one dies. Unlike TvT/PvP you don't see as many drops/harass/spellcasters/types of units. Once ling bane is over it's blobs. :/ | ||
