Wait what's this about Scarlett? I've been away (back in WoW) for a while. Did she finally win a big tournament? I've always loved watching her, and I've never really played Zerg.
As for the TB news... yeah I don't care. I mean I like listening to him sometimes but for someone who isn't even 30, he looks terrible. I don't know what he does with his life to make himself look like that but to make yourself look like that at what, 27? 28? I hope he knows he's going to end up in the mortuary in his 50s. There's no way he isn't polluting his body to a ridiculous extent.
Are people really turning the Sc2 thread into "lets talk about TB's diet and current health". Look he is right to be worried, no matter what you say MLG dropping out is a big thing, however he left Sc2 before for a period when he got bored of it and it is natural that would happen again because it is largely the same game even with the expo. Tb is over hyping the problems with Sc2 but they are there. I mean lets face it blizzard been dumb enough to schedule it at the same time as The International is beyond stupid when they could easily have played the korean matchs last week. And got the other ones pushed back earlier as well.
Anyway lets hope this shit storm blows over and people can get back to the important things, ie complaining about how terribly blizzard scheduled this season
Huh, it's not that at all. He was just complaining that there aren't a lot of "offline" tournaments in North America.
But yea, also can't forget that apparently the tournaments have to pay blizzard a fee to be able to have SC2 at their events, while events get paid BY Riot/Valve to have LoL/DOTA2.

Basically the only one who I don't want to win the EU scene is duckdeok, and somehow I feel that still is going to happen. Come on Grubby, prove me wrong.
Also Scarlett was amazing last night.
Only thing i miss in SC2 are the Lurkers - i dislike using Banelings, a unit that costs resources and suicides is just not my favorite.
Yeah, but once defiler gets EMPed, lurkers get's crushed. Anyways, it was too situational unit. The only way to use it in SC2 i see, is burrow it behind mineral line to defend against drops (still, will require 3 shots to kill a shielded marine), or to burrow them behind enemy mineral line (won't kill anyone because of slow attack but will deny enemy mining) but again, to "drop" units as zerg you have to invest too much money. Mutas still better.

Honestly, it's so retarded, hardened shield decreases damage taken to shield to 10, but widow mine depletes shield power in 1 shot). I feel like tanks in TvP give terran so much time to make anything possible.
Out of everything protoss can do when tanks come into play is: couple of void rays (easily destroyed by marines if microed correctly) or phoenixes (again, marines) or full ground army that can be destroyed by high ground tanks.

And now jae, one of my fav zergs, against the new up and comer =.= sucks
god. I hope her zvz is godly now, I want her to win. Wasnt she the one who offraced if she went against a mirror matchup or was it someone else?
And lurkers... were cut because of their cost. It was a stupid amount for them, when you could roll in with banes for cheaper. Now, they would be amazing, with the newer hydras and banes to complement them.

A lot of Protoss's units counter Siege Tanks too hard. Mech is not even viable in TvP. It's kinda silly that I have seen Protoss army a moved and crushed positioned siege tanks. That is not supposed to happen. You would never see something like that in BW. Siege Tank's firepower is its strong point and its extreme immobility is its weakness. In TvP, Siege tank shot is so weak.
