Wow a paradox championship, I can't decide who I want to get pounded more. Do I want oov to destroy Boxer? or Boxer to show oOV off. Screw that, go ooV. GOO OOV.

Quite disappointing semis. I expected a matchup like a Third World War like size clash. I think Yellow expected that too.

And Boxer... He just came to win.

You need to love his winner's mentality. Or at least respect it.

Wow

that was pure gayness ! i do not deny boxer's timing and ballsy decision making but these maps seriously blew for Z and boxer was goddam lucky with position and scouting. Well, it's part of the game ... gg anyway but i expected more.

maritini dont be stupid

boxer didn't win this series as much as yellow lost it. yellow played very very stupid by going for such early hatches after game 1, knowing that boxer had the balls to go for a very early rax into bunker rush, and boxer exploited that deficiency in games 2 and 3

How come you all blame boxer? As drone already said, i doubt boxer expected his strat to work "that" well. Rather blame Yellow for falling for this shit 3! times in a row. I thought highly of yellow before this series, but now i think that July is a much better player overall, he plays smart and forces the terran to play his game, while yellow just plays standard stuff very well. imo someone such as July would've ran over a boxer playing like that

I can't understand how people could possibly believe the game was fixed, no one really benefits from a 3-0 rushrape by Boxer (except Boxer an you can't rigg a game yourself

)

I also hoped that this would be the best bo5 ever, but well, that's life.
If Boxer wins this and Yellow wins KT-KTF this will be like the best BW-year ever.

Look, if yellow would have been going ninepool to prevent the rush, and boxer changed his strat to just standard defensive, it would only look even more ownage by boxer, fooling yellow into making unnecessary lings. I believe yellow has experience enough to know whats right.

if yellow had 9pooled they'd be leaving the early game phase with nobody in advantage
11-12pool before hatch and yellow would be ahead
expand and he's dead.
he did the worst thing in every game, against a player notorious for bunker rushing if he has the opportunity to do so.

DUMB.
