Precisely. The self-proclaimed "Number One Teamliquid Boxer Fan" predicted that there was "GOING" to be a Boxer-Reach final. Now that is "GOING" into the realm of impossibility. | ||

I remember him being described as a player true to his name, Jung Suk which when not said as part of a name means standard. Oov deserves a lot of respect as does Reach. Nal_rA deserves tons of respect, reach however is like.. Genius at times :X Just ask rekrul. Nal_rA is genius too but he's slightly less of a hero still~ And Oov said this was his first loss in a macro vs macro game, for that alone reach deserves incredible amounts of respect (note that saying this implies heaps of respect for oov). Ive seen Nal_Ra beat Oov in a macro game with the eventual mass carriers and I really think Nal_Ra is better nowadays.He practically defined modern PvZ play and Reach is copying him quite a lot in both PvZ and PvT.He just got a bit lazy after finally winning OGN.Its just Ive seen Nal_Ra do genius strats and when Reach tries something unorthodox it ends up as risky cheese. | ||

Well it's not all self-proclaimed, other people recognize it too^^ I don't see how I'm jinxing Boxer by being wrong when I predicted Boxer vs Reach final. Maybe you think because I was wrong about Reach I'll be wrong about Boxer aswell? But if you think of it that way, that's the only prediction I've been wrong on since quarters so I would say it's not ' jinx ' yet. | ||

Which rA vs Oov game are you talking about? I remember only one time rA beat him, it was the first game of the series that oov won 3-1, in last MSL semis. Record must be like 7-1 overall. | ||

Oh, I think it was 2-1, not 3-1, by the way. | ||

It saddens me to see a player such as the second-mentioned lose. U have right oov isn't a spectacular style player. He is solid hard massing gamer. And he make less mistakes than Reach. Reach lose it because did one mistake with that rivers drop in 5 game, he could play pure eco and massing units without harass. | ||

I guess Reach had no gameplan in any of these games and was just following his instincts, and creativeness. Too bad games involving cash are about winning, and not about being creative. How creative can you play in tvp anyway ? mass ghost&nukes ? proxy facs ? mass wraiths ? bionicterran ? I dont see any creative tvp these days. Doesnt really make sense to compare terran and toss, as toss is THE creative race in this game, and have a whole lot of more options early on. I strongly agree. Wouldn't have said it better. | ||
