There's nothing to fault with soo's play except for eating all those storms - maybe he was macro'ing or something? Maybe I've been away from things for awhile, but today's games didn't seem that bad. There were plenty of mediocre games even before the "switch to SC2" era... (or maybe I was expecting worse after seeing all the comments and had low expectations) | ||

A held off 0-0 speedlot timing into double stargate non-stop pumping corsairs = no ground army. Which means soo could easily contain him with his superior economy and lotsnlots of hatcheries pumping units when he held off double stargate play. And that's not how you get out of a zerg contain. I doubt if there is a way of getting out of there. Like Day[9] says, don't watch this game and ask yourself how you can get out of this contain. Watch this game and ask yourself how you don't get contained in the first place. | ||

TBH I really didn't expect the games to be better at all, then again people do take the OSL higher than the proleague so I can only hope that the games get better as we progress into the later rounds. Ro8 and up will be epic because they are all Bo5s | ||

Only Flash won from the players I wanted (well Jangbi 2, even thou that was the game I wouldn't exactly mind either way). at least you know how to do well on liquibet, just pick your least favourite guy for each matchup | ||
