Better than tester is pretty brash but he hasn't been in the last two GSLs so I think it's very accurate.

You saw his play in the G-stars he wasn't that great. He lost to MK which MC beat.

Do you read?

tester was awesome in g -star.foxer had to cheese and win game 3. then he drops a mule. THE NERVE.disrespectul &%$*&.
i have nothing to say abt him not qualifying for gsl but with the new GSL system next year my bets on tester to win everything untill STC comes back.then they alternate tourney wins

Rain definitely changed my opinion in his games against Hongun. He played really well, I was impressed. And of course, played a lot less cheesy

HAHA, "if" he wins. Good one dan.

I might be a rare kind that hopes Rain actually takes the final. Imagine how it would look for MC if that happened :D

Now we have this cocky protoss player who thinks its 1 in a millian Rain will win. Would be so fun to see him actually lose this.


I still thinks MC has this as well, he is very solid in PvT, so Rain is up for a hard final.

How can they (Korean fans especially) hate on Rain for cheesing, when the the Emperor Boxer won a starleague entirely by using bunker rushes? I hate cheese in practice matches probably more than the average person, but in tournaments I think it's completely fair.

Actually, after that historical '3-Bunker-Rush-in-a-Row' match against Yellow, people blamed boxer very hard. It was the first time that Boxer's haters overwhelmed Boxer's fans.

Perhaps bunker rushes seemed fresh and innovative for its time. And wasn't Boxer the one who invented them?

The hate started when Rain used only cheese to knock out NesTea, who many consider to be the superior player. And a lot of Terran players were doing 2 rax marine scv all-ins throughout GSL3, so I think everyone was getting tired of seeing it. That, and Rain hasn't really impressed in his run aside from some decent one base builds and timing pushes.

These GSL interviews are so much juicier than BW interviews. Hell, I could falsify a BW interview, and no one would ever notice, because they're all the same. We've seen a good amount of personality thus far in these interviews.


i bet alot has to do with no Kespa

Its good to finally see toss in the semis and in the finals especially after starting out so badly. Hopefully the toss underdogs can take home the gold just like zerg did in season 1.
I have returned.

I really hope rain wins. I actually quite like the guy. He knows his flaws and knows his strengths. He takes advantage of any advantage he can get and that's good play in my opinion

If Nestea was a better player than Rain, he would have beaten him. That Rain can bring out new cheese strategies just proves that he's got a great understanding of the game and that Nestea or maybe zergs in general should scout better. In BW you can't skip scouting in PvZ, and then say: He all-in zergling rushed me. That's not fair! There's not a single cheese strategy in BW which you can't deal with if scouted. If this isn't true for SC2, then it's a pretty sucky game.

Well except ZvZ, since scouting immediately makes you lose... But yeah, for the other 5 matchups you have a point.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There are three kinds of people in the world: those who can count and those who can't.
