I'm pretty sure hite will send Horang2 here, I'm guessing Much for ACE, although it could very easily be RuBy. But I think they are going to save RuBy for Match Point or Fighting Spirit. Horang2 is doing good, so he will win being as this is his best matchup.
Ugh, a vulture found the sweet spot behind the minerals, Gorush stopped from mining at the moment. Repels them. Vults come back. Looks over for our ace hero
Crappy sunken placement but I really liked the way Puma responded to that 4pool. He quickly realized he wasn't gonna be able to set up a bunker with marines and instead just stalled until vultures.
EPIC FAIL by Gorush T_T. I can't believe he misplaced those sunkens. Man I was SO happy to see Puma get 4 pooled after he knocked Ra out of the prelims
Honestly, Gorush was prob gonna lose anyways after the vults came out. He would've had to go on the defensive, probably go hydras to stop tanks since mutas wouldn't make it in time with a factory already built. And 1 base hydra fails to 1 base tanks.
My fault, he actually won three times after the win I posted with Fance being hiw last win, which is "only" six months ago still happy for xellos though.
YAY!!! Loosing Stars is something that Samsung KHAN and their fans was waiting for. Thanks to ACE, we have quite a big chance to advance ;D Go Ruby, Go Xellos, Go Yellow, Go Stork, Go JangBi, Go Juni & Great I love it!
I have to say I hate the new recommended games setup with those polls. The personal opinions of the OP actually used to be interesting to read; however simplistic, they brought a certain intangible charm which made the recommended games worth clicking even after you saw the games yourself. And that is now being sacrificed for an illusion of "objectivity".
I'd much rather see a quirky comment than a meaningless collection of numbers with graphs. Surely I can't be the only one

I like having both. It's nice to have the poll for the opinion of the viewers and a short description of the match along with the OP's opinion.
I agree that just having the poll is somewhat....sterile.

I actually agree, it sometimes makes it harder to tell which games to watch too, sometimes when like 15 people say yes and 10 people say no I don't know whether its worth watching, and the quirky comments were funny and interesting too.

I prefer the graphs rather than potentially biased and spoilerish comments.

ye +1
I like the addition of polls a whole lot, but polls only is pretty boring
OP here, I always thought that people liked the whole poll edition thingie. I always thought that the comments kinda spoiled and backfired the whole "spoiler-free" thing. Anyway, I'll be adding my own comments to the threads in the recommended games section. However, take note that I had to keep up 2 threads and a stream last night. So I didn't get to watch every game completely.

I'd say just do simple stuff like "nice micro by the winner". "REALLY back and forth action-packed game!", "Good defence!", "One mistake costs the game", "Huge army clash!".

Yep, exactly. Something along these lines would be nice.

I hate it when the description in the recommended game section says something like
"awesome comeback" "winner had awesome micro that carried him to victory" etc
Comments that actually give pretty good indication who will win in the end.

Don't quote me then
The only thing which somehow indicates the winner is: "Poor defense by loser"...but if you see the poor defense ingame, you will probably know that he will lose anyway(depends on the game).

True, but not having "winner" or "loser" in the comment has often been a good short description of the game for me, of course words such as "comeback" will tell you that the guy that 10 mins into the game is doing badly will eventually win but a recommended game with only "back and forth" in the description has always been a must watch in my eyes.
