Hongun is the same, he just cheeses and looks to win early. I wish Fruitdealer would have used that same build order of getting a second hatch in his base when he was blocked in by pylons, rather than the all-ins. He could have definitely taken another GSL and would have destroyed Rain after seeing how well he stuffed the scv all-in from bitbybitprime. | ||

Wasn't Hongun the guy doing the FE's and Fruitdealer the one cheesing? I'm confused if we even watched the same game.... | ||

That's pretty depressing. Hopefully Idra's wrong.  | ||

But I think Foxers TvZ is the best currently. His marine micro is just absurd. However vs other races i'm not to sure because micro isn't as necessary in the other matchups | ||

I'm confused if we even watched the same game.... You mean the dark templar rush or the voidray rush? Did those two matches not exist? What Hongun did was force Fruitdealer to all-in by blocking him in with pylons and fast expanding himself. I don't know if I consider that cheese or not, but it's ridiculously cheap and I am glad they are "supposedly" taking out the ability to do it in the next patch. Do I think it was wrong of Hongun to do it? No, it gave him the best chance to win and for this much money I'd do the same against a superior player, especially in the macro game. Hongun has been doing cheese and early strategies in basically all his games in the GSL and in games that go into the late game he's not that great of a player. It's almost impossible to recover from that as Zerg if the protoss knows what he is doing. He's just going to push you with a ton of warp gate units and you won't have the economy to keep up with the amount of units he is warping in. It's basically a risk either way, no matter what Fruitdealer did he'd either be taking a risk in trying to macro up or all-in, both were 50/50. The only reason it failed in the first match was because Hongun put his stargates in an awful place and his voidray pressure was stuffed, allowing Fruitdealer to have enough time to macro up and build up the exact counter to his warp gate units. | ||

I was hoping he would go over who he thought would belong in code S who are currently in code A. I'm assuming all he'd say is Ret but maybe he'd have a few dark horses. Code S Is new, Kind of like how GSL season 1 was where there were A LOT of people who shouldn't of made it. GSL Season 3 is kind fo like that but i think its getting better. | ||
