Now he's playing for a spot, just like he was a year ago. Starcraft is a brutal sport. You only get a seed if you are top 8. Yea, but you'd think that if you were number 1 just 2 seasons ago you'd think that you wouldn't have to struggle through group stages. Stranger things have happened, I guess. nah, seasons in starcraft move faster than real life seasons
i always saw each OSL/MSL season as one "starcraft year" in other sports, esp since the players careers are so short
imo they should've had all the player contracts negotiated by season rather than by year, it avoids players like savior getting paid 40k/yr while he dominates leagues, then getting a huge contract of 200k/yr as he slumps into the b-team
better for everyone if contracts were redone every few months

he wins osl, then crashes and burns.
And had the best record in proleague later on...
Blackho >>> Xellos, Boxer, Ra, Yellow, Garimto, etc etc.
The level of play is so high one small mistake and you lose horribly. That's the fact of current progaming. No more room for fancy play like in the past. Just because a player loses to another really good player, both much stronger than Boxer, that doesn't mean they are not really really good progamers.
Same with Rock.That guy also always gets bashed. But over and over he qualifies for MSL and OSL, beating extremely though opponents.

well the armies clash, and mind survives with 2 rines and backho loses all zeals.
backho has forge, putting up a cannon and nexus at his nat.
mind has also started cc, and lifted off both raxes.

Looks like they'll split the map after all.

haha backho rewarping a pylon at the proxy gate.
2/4 rines die as backho loses 1 zeal. 2nd zeal dies as 1/4 rines die at nat.
mind now places scv in the small choke with 3 zeals behind, cant kill the proxygate for now.
mind's cc is done, and he puts up 2 factories, 1 gets addon right away.
