Does anyone care about Protosses could win Only 2 Games in the whole Blizzard Cup group stages ? ( and 1 was a PvP ! )

If Stephano goes for a proper 6:30 Roach+SpeedLing Timing, instead of a weird Eco Roach+SpeedLing one at 7:30, than Protosses could have won Only the PvP ! =/

Sad, but True imo.

(btw Naniwa's game threw away, and MC's luck getting into the Grid will make everyone forget about this... =*( )
(Blizzard had a Lucky-Lucky day yesterday, it would be a huge upset, if there were No Protoss in the Grid at all !)
(I promise, that I won't post this again, only if MC got beaten to 0-2)

They placed first in their groups.

Great Naniwa poster!
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

Nice Art

Naniwa... I'm not angry or something because I payed to see the games, but I can not understand how Naniwa can throw a game away like this. It would have been perfect practice under tournament circumstances, against one of the best players in the world - so why not use it?
It never pays off if you let your emotions take over after a loss....

Anyway, Naniwa/Foreigners fightiiiiiing! (in Up/Down Januar^^ )

Naniwa threw last game vs Nestea (7 probe rush), because they were both 0-3 and the game meant nothing. Naniwa was banned from competing in GSL 2012.
If I was a wizard, this wouldn't be happening.

Yeah, I absolutely did notice that 2/3 Protoss players went 0-4 in the group stages, and the remaining one barely squeezed through at 2-2. The competition was fierce to be sure, but these guys are arguably the best protoss players in the world- you could make a case for Oz or Puzzle, but Naniwa, Hero and MC were definitely up there (sorry HuK, I'd like to mention you but you haven't been at the top of your game lately). While it's up for debate whether it's the race or the players who are at fault, this does not bode well for the sons of Aiur.

When I saw that Naniwa poster Ride of the Valkyries started playing in my head.
