Hwasin showing us how he's going to win the MSL.
By almost throwing away the game multiple times to give the other player a chance to win.

Now with arbiter/carrier/HT combo you can actually fight terran on equal bases.

Very sick defense from Hwasin.

I would say it was Flashesque.

strategies are made in accordance with different map.. i dont see why terran shouldnt turtle on this map, since this map is all about map dominance.

I don't think people should hate turtle terrans on this map because it's the best strategy and many times protoss sort of "cause" it by taking many bases.
Other maps are a different story.


holding that peak seems like a useful skill toi have

Okay, I guess I will admit it pisses me off when I see Terrans sieging up on that ramp below the pods and protoss have no way to attack. It feels really cheap then. But I don't play terran or protoss, or supporting many players that do.

Lol Kal let the game slip away. So sad.

Match Point is bad for PvT. 8-12+ 1-11 during pre season testing. Because Terrans can use the high pods to spread out everywhere.
I'm not taking anything away from Hwasin, I don't care about either player.

Yea its a tough map for P obviously. Just look at it Terran's dream vs P. But Kal had a real chance that game. He didnt execute very well late game.

No one's saying it's bad to do to win, because the players' jobs are to win. But the audience wants entertainment and excitement, which turtling does not offer.

Why would you say that? He defended his 3 oclock only barely, and then maintained a pretty high level of aggression after that, taking out the bases at the corners simultaneously, using his high ground to mount attacks at the vulnerable 6 oclock... It wasn't turtle terran at all, there was just talk about that in the thread.

I have no words to describe how much I agree with you.

Could Kal have played better? I think he could have sniped the CC at 3'oclock (focus firing).

Do you ever actually watch any of his games? Such an ignorant statement.

usually i really dont like it when terrans turtle on 2 player maps and win but what hwasin was not like the typical turtle terran. Usually 12 would be kal's but hwasin take 12 forced actually kal to take 5 and 6 which is closer to hwasin's base making it easier to kill them.
