Also, I really liked the article regarding Sea. It's an interesting point, and I'll have to keep my eye out for more players like that. | ||

If TeamLiquid could give it some hype, then I think we could really be able to celebrate a teamleague! Omg I hope you are joking. None of that is true. | ||

You can't really argue that one is a better measure of skill than another, because they're so different. | ||

TeamLiquid ESPORTS wrote:An almost comically maphack-esque scan discovered all of Symbols morphing banelings, roaches, and gathered overlords, and Mvp turtled up like a man in no great hurry to attack. Legend didn't catch it, but he scanned because he was sending a drop to Symbol's 3rd and caught a glimpse of the army. That drop was actually what won Mvp the game - Symbol's army was out of position to defend and he was definitely going to lose the 3rd base. So he basically had no choice but to try and kill Mvp's army (Mvp knew this, that's why he turtled on the low ground and didn't try to defend his main). | ||

Don't you remember when the slayers terrains came up with the elevator play with hellions and marines or when naniwa did 1 build against zerg every game | ||

I still don't know why Symbol didn't just check to see if the main was naked (which it was) and then drop there instead of saying "ok MVP you win." He didn't have enough overlords (only 11 were with the army)...If he dropped the main, it would have been with just banes + 4 lings or so and he was guaranteed to lose 2/3 for free with that little marine clump patrolling. That would mean marching speedlings and roaches into the front by themselves. Not that it mattered, he lost his 3rd (to that drop), had to rebuild his Warren, and was behind 51-73 on workers...it was already checkmate at this point. | ||

 . I'd like slightly longer game descriptions ( I don't have a pass so I will never beable to watch those videos, and since free VODs is a lost concept for the gsl/gstl... ), also probably not the best to say who wins in the first sentence, but other than that, as said previously: nice read ! | ||
