    I agree with lots of your points zvp. i find when watching pro games there has been so much zvp as of late that i am not only sick of watching the match up, but it's really strange.

    If you want to know how to beat the Stephano style check out the 2 sets he lost against Oz at the most recent MLG arena.

    I don't know what the most balanced non-mirror matchup is. I think if EMP never got nerfed down (or if the nerf was less) it would be TvP. This new 1.5.3 patch may make TvZ better, however I think that the cost of hunter seeker should be less and that there are too many upgrades for the raven. Starport's upgrades as a whole are dumb. HSM should move a bit faster and energy cost down to 100. That would make Air Zerg with Infestors much more beatable by terran.

    IEM will be great! Nestea signed up for the open bracket, which is quite cool. I hope that means he's in good form and will be able to do great this weekend at the TAC 3 finals.

    I'm actually in bronze. I didn't ladder yesterday otherwise I think I could have been promoted.

    U know some stuff quite well, seems weird that you are bronze. And yeah that new patch looks interesting. And about TvP, why just not give terran something late gamerelated (upgrade or smt) that boosts units production speed, maxed vs maxed out army toss doesnt have advantage, advanatage comes after battle if it ends about equally toss just remax faster and terran cant keep up with production, and ohh believe me ghosts are so damn good even now, feedback is impossible, because ht so slow and ghost have higher range. But then again if it's equal late game they should fix early-mid game aswell which imo slightly favors terran.

    Darn Team Taeja/Liquid came short. Well Taeja is still amazing and an All-Kill in the first set saids it all.

    Well I did not watch BW aswell, but kind of rooting for SKT out of all bw teams, mostly cause of Bisu, Boxer joining in as coach doesn't make it worse as well.

    Enjoying IEM, bit sad that all Toss got eliminated so early, still great tournament even tho production is lackluster sometimes. And damn Nerchio looks strong...

    MLG has been very unhyped but there are some good stories going into it

    -Alicia seeking 1st place after placing 2nd in 3 straight premier tournaments (MLG, MLG Arena, and NASL).

    -MKP fighting through the open bracket

    -The success of the American players seeded in (who there is no expectations for).

    -Who will be the foreigner hope of this MLG? Stephano? Grubby? Will a foreigner win one for the first time since HuK in Orlando 2011?

    -Taeja is probably the clear favorite, being dubbed the hottest player right now. Who will/can stop him?

    Also, we should do some predictions. Let's predict top 3 in order and what team has the most players come out of the open bracket

    Top 3:

    1. Taeja
    2. Losira
    3. Ryung

    Team with the most players come out of the open bracket: Evil Geniuses
