How come these dudes hate Pablo so much? They act like he's doing this over some personal vendetta rather than journalistic ethics. I love the podcast but can't help but get annoyed by their responses to this issue.

At first I thought that they just want to see guys get what they deserve. But these are rules that players and teams agreed to, that are clearly being circumvented in some way.

Do they just put on the blinders for any wrongdoing as long as it means homeboy gets paid? What about what it means for more middling players who don't have this same sort of leverage? Or how this benefits rich owners disproportionately?

Hi everybody,

About Me:

I am here to offer free coaching to anybody who wants it. I will help anybody but would prefer people who aren't brand new to the game as I am more inclined to help people who have some experience but are struggling to rank up. I am doing this because - as I continue to learn and gain more skill & credibility - I would like to earn some extra change by coaching. But first I need to get some experience doing so. I also like to help others and would get some enjoyment out of sharing my experience and knowledge with others. I expect a session to be roughly 60 minutes.

I was 5350 solo pre-patch, recalibrated to 5200 and have been going up from there. I expe

I'm thinking about things like collectivization, NEP, wartime atrocities, the Great Purge. Were these things that educated people in the USSR in the 80s knew about and studied?

In light of Maru's recent dominating performances, we've seen an upswing in discussion on balance. Some people think that we're just seeing that terran is imbalanced right now, some people saying it's 100% skill that Maru, with most people falling somewhere in the middle. While I think debating these things is fine, my concern since about 2010 has always been about how Blizzard is going to react to these discussions.

It seems to me that at some point in their history, Blizzard decided to implement a more pro-active approach to balancing games with respect to how those games are perceived and played as esports. When this began is up for debate. I would say it was when Brood War was released.

It was on Echo I think, a TvT, Maru vs somebody. Maru cancels 3/3 to get more siege tanks out so he can continue to pressure and kill a base. Allows him to come back. I think it was GSL or Proleague but not positive.

Anyone remember this? Thanks

I'm almost done with my template (basically MSwords with some medic and fencer/TK for defense). I found a +24 2h speed AA for 1mil (good deal right?) so I am speed capped. I bought a good set of 90% base comp with decent stun resist. My PH is not legendary or top-end but it's decent. I'm just starting to accrue state resist SEAs too because I figure I'll need them.

But I'm not sure what I should do now. I am guild-less so I'm stuck solo farming, but I'm not sure what I can be farming or doing now that would be the best use of my time. I am interested in PvP but I feel like I should probably get richer first so I can actually be competitive. I feel like I probably can't solo Krayt Ancients a

I didn't follow the BW scene too closely, just wondering if there were any players who used to play like Maru does now, lots of aggression, multi-pronged attacks, drop-heavy macro style, etc.

EDIT: Thanks guys.
