It kind of was. I`m quite sure he didn`t need ground units to soak damage from the stalkers, he could just fly in with the corruptors and snipe the colossi. Kind of a bad time for Idra to play with his CJ schedule. Tester played like a beast though obviously. Congrats.


Yes, I think Sen would've done that, but IdrA loves these set-piece battles in which he commits every unit. Tester exploited that, destroyed his ground army, and then pumped stalkers for the win.

Yeah he has a BW PL match later. The two games are so different that would throw me off big time.

EDIT: Ah but he doesn't play for them, right? Is there another league CJ is in right now?

Well, IdrA was good enough to 2-0 TLO, so I don't exactly think he was in "bad shape" these games...

Tester is kind of like if you put Idras marco and mechanics, TLOs creative play style and White-Ras game sense into one player. (+ great micro)

Really cool.

Good games, was hoping for closer battles. What exactly was Artosis's prediction? That Tester would absolutely dominate?

Tester played like a monster those games. His multitasking and execution were pretty much topnotch. Those void rays there harassing left, definitely progamer level multitasking right there.

It's nice to see that Idra adapted well in Game 3. Had he done the same at to start off the series, we probably would have seen some great games.

I think Tester just shows how the gap between pro gamers and everyone else is going remain if/when we get a larger group of pros instead of just the unlicensed/retired ones we have now

Those skills and that training doesn't just go away. If Asia isn't the best server right now which I think there's evidence to suggest it is (not just these games mind you) then it definitely will be in the future

I really loved how mechanically sound tester is compared to other SC2 players I see

From what I've seen it looks like Cool (Z), Maka (T) and Tester (P) are the top players from each race.

What no LR or scores?? Hope someone will post the results for me in spoiler tags!

Also was sure the event was held tomorrow at the 30th!? Damn what a calender mess-up. From my part I guess... Anyway hope it was some good games.

I don't know if I said it in this thread but I'll say it again. Tester is the first SC2 player I enjoy watching. His mistakes were minimal and his multitasking was good. If a washed out x-progamer like tester can do this with SCII, imagine what Flash can do with it.

Gah, I missed the finals... I guess I'll have to wait for the replays. Tester ftw.

Or maybe because SC2 has less mechanical requirements the older players actually have an advantage over the 16 year olds and we'll see the old 'washed up' players doing better than the current SC1 pros. We don't know.

thats a pretty naive opinion if you ask me. The current pros are no where near the caliber of those players, they could pick up SC2 for 2 days and be better.

anyone want to write a quick battlereport summary for each game? Missed most of them and I'd like to know what happened.

According to you, with no evidence. Your opinion is just as naive as mine is.

In my opinion we'll see more strategic geniuses (like Tester, who is a coach) and less 15 year old mechanical monkeys doing well in SC2 because it's a slower paced game with less mechanical requirements. Sounds like a logical argument to me.

Is Daniel Lee a strategic genius by virtue of being a coach?
