GSL October Code S will consist of 20 Terrans, 7 Zergs and 5 Protoss players. Yes you didn't read wrongly. TWENTY out of 32 Code S players are Terrans. We will be witnessing a lot of Terran vs Terran games in the upcoming GSL October Code S. It is no surprising that Terrans has been performing extremely well recently in both the Code S and Code A matches. Protoss pro gamers continue to fall out one after another from Code S. Even two times GSL champion oGsMC was given a one way ticket into Code A. Will this trend continue in the future?
Let's hope that the upcoming patch 1.40 will help to buff up the Protoss games. Is this what we call imbalance for a game? When a race is performing extremely well against the other two races, this is probably a sign of the game being imbalance. Currently, Starcraft 2 is heavily favouring the Terran race. Zergs has been doing not too bad as compared to Protoss. However, the number of Zergs within Code S
should be look into. 5 Protoss out of 32 is underwhelming.
Some argues that the best players and gamers around the world plays Terran. This is due to the easy transition from Starcraft Brood War trend. Some claims that Protoss players are bad and stuck with the 'Death Ball' mentality or being not creative enough. Some states that Terran is the perfect designed race which has the best macro and micro tools. Whatever the reasons are, we hope to see a more balance race distribution in the future. If a race shows too much dominance over the others this may affects and hurt the overall interest of the game itself. Let's hope that Starcraft 2 will improve and balanced up in the future.
Man you are so ..... right, the dominance of terran affects the interest of the game. For me being a toss player 1/1/1 makes you nuts anyway i hope blizz do something.
