***Ro8 Spoilerz***

This morning I was watching Fauxer vs Kyrix and it was at the last match and I thought Kyrix was going to win game 5 after a long struggle (he had just taken out Fauxer's gold and Kyrix had his 3rd for a long time) so I left cause my stupid lil bro missed his school bus and needed me to take him to school. So thinking Kyrix would win I took my lil bro to school. AND THEN SOMEHOW I COME BACK AND SEE FAUXER WON?!?!?!?! WTF?!?!?!?

sorry I am really upset. I love Fauxer to no end. I am just hoping someone out there can feel my pain who saw how awesome those games were.

Definitely best game of either GSL so far! It really gives me hope for SC2's future as an eSport. If all games are like that in a year or 2 from now, I have no doubt that this game will be the true successor to BW.

Game 3 was on steppes, and it was basically just the same as Game 2, except a bit longer and with even more marines!

Kyrix does play such a dirty ZvT. It'd be cool if he were more macro oriented and just threw in these baller bling attacks occasionally instead of damn near ALL THE TIME, but hey, he deserved to get that far. I'd hate to play him. Oh so much.

Steppes of War, Kyrix goes 2base baneling bust with speedlings and just walks over Fauxer due to how short the rush distances are

Ehh, I thought game 1 was great, amazing micro without ever missing a macro cycle and Z just struggling to survive.

Game 5 wasn't nearly as good, many many mistakes from both players and Z basically throwing it away with overaggression. they both had limited information so its understandable, but Z really fucked himself over by never teching to Infestor or picking up burrow, never sitting back and consolidating his advantage, plus his extreme lack of upgrades vs 3-3 marines.

plus when he had about 4 OV's full of blings he should have used one or two to come from behind the mineral line of the gold expo, would have killed literally 95% of Foxers scv/mules and won him the game basically. Trying to drop on the marines was just dumb with Foxers level of micro.

It wasn't straight up bad play but still frustrating to watch.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Completely agree, I found Kyrix's play so frustrating. No armor upgrades and no infestors vs mass marines, making banelings in bad spots and using them way too much off creep, being too impatient with zerglings and attacking before they were all together, didn't put a hydra den down when he scouted the banshees in game 4, way over aggressive in game 5 and those full ovies... omg.
