What it is like being a Zerg GM during ProtossCraft II

General Discussion

Every time you continue to troll in my thread, I will link to your blatant lies so everyone knows what kind of garbage you post.

This guy is clearly a troll, folks. Report any rule-breaking posts you see, please.

To reiterate the topic of the thread, which the trolls are trying to derail:

  • Protoss wins the most tournaments.
  • Protoss are second place in earnings.
  • Protoss are 45% of GM.
  • Protoss have the highest winrates in Masters and Grandmaster.
  • Protoss play 2.3x more games than zerg players in Grandmaster (Zergs are leaving the game).
  • There is a severe imbalance favoring Protoss and it is hurting the health of the game at large.

I would create a new smurf account and I would shame my other account’s posts with it, that would bring me peace of mind.

ROOOOFL. These topics, as frustrating as they are, bring nearly endless laughter. For that, I am thankful.

  • First: this is not “your” thread. Just because you opned some BS rant does not give you any title of property.
  • Second: An unbiased balanced reader of this forum would identify immediately the troll…and it is not FriendlyToss but YOU.

Don’t underestimate them, just because they are bored and are insisting to engage you (FriendlyToss, Diogenes, Asamu, Sentry), does not mean that they take you seriously.
It is common knowledge that you thrive in the presence of attention and the more people debate you the better for your ego.
Don’t forget, i know you well…

Watch as the trolls continue to ignore the facts while they commit to more personal attacks. To reiterate the topic of the thread, which the trolls are trying to derail:

like we can see in hsc xx: zerg players can go to the swimming pool while other races have to practise.
also, maybe top tier zerg players leave the game because they win too much money and can retire. and the other can relax because they hit their dream easily (getting diamond/masters whatever) :smiley:

172

The fact that Zerg players play 40% as many games as Protoss, combined with the win-rate advantage Protoss has and the fact that Zergs are being demoted en masse, is proof that the imbalance of the game is hurting the game experience of players enough to make them stop playing.

If that isn’t alarming to you, then you’re definitely a troll.

173

Maybe its the part of balancing the game? knocking off zerg players where they actually dont belong? :slight_smile:
maybe blizzard realised that and reacted accordingly. which is now a disaster for zerg because they are suddenly not as good as they thought

ps: i now just counter troll

If it’s OK for a race to have 45% of GML and a ~6% win-rate lead in GM, then you won’t object if we make that race Zerg, right?

175

how much if we count out all the smurfs?

Answer the question.

177

well its part of your answer. the winrate doesnt mean anything if you dont count out smurfs. pros beating noobs and inflating winrates or places taken in gm doesnt mean anything

also there is a difference between design and balance. a difference between tournament and ladder. aka bo1 and boX

I repeat: Yes or no, would you be OK if Blizzard buffs Zerg until Zerg is 45% of GML?

179

That wasnt your initial question

180

I’m never serious about anything, when the arguments come to a dead end, it’s nice to laugh a bit.

I think it was Railgan the guy who said that there was around 120 smurf accounts in GM.

Your refusal to answer is clearly a “no”.

182

This is factually incorrect. The idea that smurfs take over GM has been debunked a hundred times over.

184

I dont refuse to answer. but your question changed^^ in a very biased way.

Gm doenst mean anything.

185

Then you won’t have any issue if Blizzard buffs Zerg to where they are 45% of GM, as I stated. You can’t have it both ways, sweetie pie. You play checkers. I play 10D chess.
