STX wins, Calm wins, 3 Zerg wins, I'm so happy.  Overall 3 great games today as well, so Team 8 should be satisfied with themselves. Just keep the eyes on the prize, they can do this yet! Sorry to all the Team 8 fans, but STX needed this win bad as well. I hope there are no hard feelings. | ||

on the other hand i guess STX needed the win as well, so Team 8 better luck next time Still hope that Team 8 would continue to improve, Jaehoon has improved quite a lot, just needs to choose his engagement wisely now. Hope Team 8 makes the playoffs ^^ | ||

But I don't see how you can be upset at this lineup: BaBy on Ground Zero - TvT and won. Might have gotten a Z or P, but would probably still have won. Jaedong on Chain Reaction - ZvP and won. Might have been better to send Killer (since BaBy had played already) but that's second guessing. Killer on Electric Circuit - ZvZ and lost to Calm. If he could somehow have known he would face Calm, who would you send instead? Jaehoon? Heh. Tyson? Worse. Sea? Not the way Sea's been playing. Switch JD and Killer in the lineup? Sure I guess... but what do you really accomplish? Sea on Sniper Ridge - TvP and lost. This one you can criticize since Sea's been poor this season: maybe send Tyson. On the other hand, what it Tyson had walked into by.hero/hyvaa/Last and lost badly? Saving Jaehoon for last - the 3rd best player after the two aces - makes sense, though you could argue that sending him would have been okay here, but what if he lost and you *have* to send Tyson (not Sea, obviously) on Outlier? Urk. Jaehoon on Outlier - Jaehoon ought to be better than hyvaa (though hyvaa's ZvP is good). I don't like Tyson's chances any better. Jaehoon ought to have won the game, and screwed it up. How is that on the coach? No, there are cases where lineups are really and truly the coach's fault, but this is not one of them. | ||

Killer, Sea when will you show your best game?! Killer was just outplayed, Sea was waiting until Dear had half of the map with 50 gateways. (At least Jaedong won. | ||

Please be more sensitive. It was only 67 years ago when Korea was finally relieved of Japanese rule that lasted centuries. The abuses of the Japanese are still very relevant in Korea today. Many of the people still living have memories of being forced to learn Japanese and submit to their culture. The vast majority of them lived through the painful rebuilding of society after the Japanese left. While the banner can be left and is wonderful in certain aspects, it is analogous to portraying modern Jewish celebrities in Nazi attire. While hatred is hardly beneficial or constructive, the racism and prejudices against the Japanese is hardly "dumb". | ||

Well at least enough to persuade me) T8 shallow lineup makes coach strategy poor. Maybe I'm wrong on Hoon account | ||
