OR MAYBE.... maybe its all BISU and his conspiracy?!?
The first 8 or so KSL games were much, much better than the SSL games that happened during the same time period. There's just a lack of consistency because players don't spend 60 hours a week in team houses preparing methodically for Proleague.
I have to agree. The first eight games kicked ass. Today was pretty fun though. Honestly, the bad games show blaring skill gaps between the players who won and lost. Also the ZvZ heavy day was rough. The new maps also play a huge role. I have no doubt the ro8 will significantly improve.

By the way, did hero win his game? I couldn't watch them live and there is literally one comment in the entire thread on it :x

Hero didn't play. It was just Jaehoon vs Jaehoon with Hero as spectator. Both Jaehoons lost.

So does that mean there's going to be a tiebreak, or does Hero's 1-1 beat HiyA's 1-2?

proxy vs mind fails? eh slap down another factory and starport, don't expand
scout proxy robo? meh, go for speed vultures with a second factory rather than expo with wraith/positioning. Doesn't work? try harder! Don't expand.
though to be fair, in a proxy robo situation, speed vulture mines can be quite a counter. if you don't lose your first tank and marines. he would have died to the robo if free hadn't cancelled it)

So sad...
PianO may have gotten too used to playing weaker ladder players who are surprised at his proxy/drop cheese... These progamers are just too strong for that. Exactly as you note, I wish he hadn't doubled down in those situations

Those lings really fucked up all of Movies plans.
Looks like Larva came in with a solid game plan and macro'd the heck out of it... those speedlings deterred so many of Movie's expansions while sniping high templars. Then the mid-game scourge to take out observers while Larva continued to stall and expand.
Impressive strategy and very much overwhelmed Movie
