and savior played very well, he definitely showed that he can compete at a pro level with his terran against zerg. gorush won that game largely due to build order, but savior's game sense and reaction time still shone quite a bit

it was a close game, don't be fooled by HHHEHEHE GUARDIANS DUHHH HURRR ^____^

sAviOr won't lose the loser's match, not a possibility :-)
But he can damn well lose the Loser's final.

You get it Gorush, that's how you put a cocky mofo back in his place.

sAviOr has quite an ability to TVZ through what I have seen from this match.

Oh, give credit where it's due. Savior even cracked a smile.

I think a lot of us, if we saw Savior playing T and another progamer T like Midas, Nada, etc, we couldn't even tell the difference. Savior played very well, but I think GoRush's build could have very worked vs any other T in that game.

Savior played well. The difference in skill of Savior's T and other top progaming T's are really subtle, things that aren't obvious to the majority of us here at TL.net. That game wasn't a one-sided rape anyway. Savior was hunting down those expands quite well, and GoRush's 5 gas suddenly turned to 2 gas. If he could've held out for a bit longer, he could've taken it.

If you're Nada or Savior; youve earned the right to be cocky

Hilarious game, and it was exactly as I thought. Poor Savior.
He put no pressure on GoRush in early game, allowing him to get all that gas... he really should have played more aggressively. When Savior moved out, GoRush was already too strong.
Savior's army size / macro was OK though... I'm sure he'll do better in a rematch. But I hope there is none... Savior *has* to advance.

Will savior go Terran again or was this a one time only thing?

That was an awesome game, even though I like Savior better. I was impressed by Savior's play actually, although obviously he was thrown off by Gorush's unusual strat. He blocked the initial muta harass almost perfectly, but obviously didn't expect Gorush to keep going hardcore muta.

if he has to play gorush again he will use terran

other than that he will use zerg, or at least has not said he will use terran past that game and possibly another in this group stage

If he faces Gorush again tonight, then yes, he will go Terran again

Eh, I have so much more respect for players that take their dominance in stride, and put their arrogance away. I don't consider Nada anywhere near as cocky as Savior anyway.
