SjoW eliminated in the group stages of Assembly after losing to two protoss players. I call that IMBALANCED.

Sjow has a huge problem against protoss, he gets kicked out by semi-pro protoss players all the time

I think he just tilted after losing 'cus he didn't scout, I didnt watch the games against RunA but that's my guess. Anyway keep fighting SjoW!

This seems a bit of an overreaction. It may not be his best matchup but a 'huge problem' when he just beat Socke and White-Ra in the biggest European tournament?

Yeah, it'd be hard to have a matchup better than TvZ

Snarking aside, Sjow just got way outplayed (at least vs. Sein, the one I watched). Sometimes the no scout pays off, sometimes it bites you in the arse. Just the name of the game.

Sein abused his non-scouting style in a way that an underdog should. It's not the races fault lol

Ok, huge is not the right word, I was watching too much Tastosis lately. But I think protoss is definitely his weakest match-up.

I remember that he got kicked out by protoss players quite often in the tsl qualifiers and on the other hand he wins against the top guys that you mentioned. Maybe he needs some more practice with nAni .

Could someone explain how he lost? Didn't watch it unfortunately.

I know he's been training quite a bit of TvP and wanted to use some new style at Assembly, maybe it just wasn't fully tested and optimized?

Only saw one series where he lost but it went:
+ Show Spoiler +

Game 1: Sjow wins.
Game 2: 9 pylon 9 gate right outside his ramp on Xel'Naga, makes one zealot and pulls all probes which ultimately kills Sjow. The game went on with Sjow trying to survive with 1 scv, a floating command center and two marines but it was over.
Game 3: Delta Quadrant 4gate, places pylon so he can warp in by the rocks and Sjow only has two supply depots walling off that ramp, so the zealots waltz in while the rest of the P units walk in the front.

Game went on for ages as Sjow.. uh, had some late GG timing but he did try for a while with some attempted banshee harass and an expansion, but he was so far behind it didn't matter. The P left most units at his base and used his stalkers with blink to prevent the expansion and snipe a few tanks. Commendable effort but he was too far behind.

He lost because he didn't scout, basically.

I think he was too risking when not scouting proxy in g2, I dont think its that huge lost when 1 SCV is not mining, especially in trade for info that proxy is coming. My english sucks, but you know what I mean

in my opinon what kills sjow is his lack of scouting combined with his very smart and effective playstyle.
He is a player that truely plays against his "human" oponnent rather then just playing tvp ..
thats why he was able to beat so many top players even with his "bad" mechanics he just figures them out then outpalys them ; he has a very deep understanding of the game.

This is his biggest strengh and why i like him so much. ( i always think : if he wins with 100 apm i can do it too =))) sadly this isnt true ) However vs medicore palyers this isnt the best way to play and often times it harms u more then it helps.

I guess that might have something to do with TLO's 'apartment in stockholm' facebook post.
