One day you'll interview Losira and there will be this really awkward moment when you don't know if it's in good taste to use a losira cat picture.

THEN YOU'LL DO IT ANYWAY LIKE A BOSS.

The new Code S system is really good, but it should last longer with each match played being a best of 3. Hopefully they implement that in the new year!
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!

Sad to see how we might not be able to see Lucky again for quite some time. The big foreign tournaments should definitely get rid of all those invitations and hold qualifiers. It's not only Koreans but I think several smaller teams in EU and NA are thirsting to proving their worth which is currently being denied to them because most of the bigger tournaments are mainly invitationals!

Now, some people are holding the fact that Lucky used a roach-ling timing heavily in his IPL3 silver medal run against him. I think that's a bit silly, when you could as easily say he is a player who can analyze his opponents and use proper counter-builds to ensure a deep tournament run.

I don't hold playing to win against anyone. However, winning in the style he did proves far less in terms of lasting StarCraft ability as far as I'm concerned.

Not that he necessarily doesn't have it - obviously you have to be good to take 2nd at a big tournament no matter how you do it - but his play didn't show much except that he can execute a build FXO came up with specifically to beat reactor hellion expands, which were stupidly common in TvZ at the time.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

I received quite a shock after losing 0-4 to Stephano in the IPL3 finals, and I practiced a lot of ZvZ after I returned to Korea. At IPL I had beat HayprO and Ret already in the bracket, so I was confident in my mirror-matchup, but I really panicked after going 0-4 to Stephano. If we can play again, I'd like to have some fun games in Korea.

I don't think he knew his opponents very well. Haypro is just a level below the rest I think (in comparison to HuK, thorzain, nani, Idra, etc.) and Ret's ZvZ is bad and he hates it (just look at the BiB yesterday).

Great writeup, and a nice interview with Lucky.
I didn't really like him for kicking ret out of the IPL3 but he seems to be a nice guy
Still I want naniwa to beat him
Foreigners Hwaiting!

Great write-up.

Love the Lucky interview. There are so many match ups that I want to see.

Select, Sase, Nani obviously. Foreigners fighting.

JYP/Sase is so hard for me! JYP and SaSe are both so good.

I think that everyone trying to claim the "invention" of a strategy as a geographical/personal feat should investigate his confirmation bias and his relative exposure to matches from different geographical sources/players. But alas, keep babbling about such things if you deem that entertaining.
That said, I have nothing against calling certain strats by the name of a player who made it popular, e.g. Stephano style for heavy infestor-ling, which is just a sensible way to be understood among peers. (I wonder if Koreans have a different name for Artosis pylons, or similar things.)

Good article. I can't Imagine why you wouldnt root for Sase. Let's hope him and Naniwa meet In the finals ! (if thats even possible )

It might not make sense to you, but some of us pick a team and root for them no matter what :D

No matter if Fruitdealer is not in tsl anymore huh?
