I still have no idea why Parting didn't try going to his signature immortal sentry build even once in his series loss. =(

Past teammates? The fact that Curious has faced it hundreds of times over practicing with him? The fact that Life knows how to shut it down pretty effectively and probably taught Curious? Lots of good reasons why.

My passion has waned a bit for this season since INnoVation lost. It's up to Taeja now to keep the hope alive. Otherwise I don't really care what happens, never mind if it happens to end up being a freaking zvzvzvz...

Don't estimate the man with the broken wrists... Taeja's just gonna mind game the shit of soul key. MC is in the same house as a few pretty great zerg players - Nestea, if he doesn't give zergbong advice, Losira and also another protoss champion in Seed. And then there is god of terran with the broken wrists himself, Mvp. it's hard not to get better, even for MC. Sure, he struggled a bit but he's going to so crush Roro. He watched those Parting/Curious games and he'll be looking to avoid Parting's lackluster performance. BossToss wants this, and when he wants something he usually gets it.

Exactly. On top of that you kept hearing tastetosis saying Innovation was flash like in the ro16 and Taeja pushed him to his very limit. Yet they say nothing about Tajeas play. I seriously think Taeja is really starting to recover from his injury and if that's true then he will be a serious force. The summer of Taeja is still the most dominant string of performances I have seen out of a player in SC2.

You must not have watched that much SC2 then.

I have though to be fair I didn't watch the very early parts of SC2 in korea so never saw MVP at his prime. Regardless I would still say the way Taeja was dominating his opponents during his run would trump it for a couple reasons. First he did it at a time when the game was much more figured out and the level of play at increased drastically. Second he did it when most races were very even and equally crushed the very best of each race. MVP was dominant during a time of Terran dominance.
(please not I am obviously not including BW only referring to SC2)

Dammit it Taeja, why does GSL happen on school nights? TT
I'm just going to sleep now, then wake up at 4 so I can do both my homework and watch GSL at the same time.

Roro was never a below-average zerg in BL. He had an incredibly disproportionate number of games against absolute top-tier players and still hovered at almost exactly a 50% winrate. He was also leaned on way too heavily in proleague due to his poor team and thus had no time to practice for solo leagues.

On another team with a better environment and better ace options, he would have been a Stats or a Light.

The Curse of ST had come full circle, with Squirtle and Parting, the two traitors, having been hyped up and then promptly obliterated. StarTale does not forgive, and it does not forget.


BOOM

Awesome line, thx :D

because he invented it using Curious as main practice partner back in ST and Curious was most likely well prepared for it

God damn it, stop it with the "another all zerg sem-finals" "not a 4 zerg semi again".
You're making jackasses out of yourselves.


What? I generally don't like watching ZvZ. How is that making a jackass of myself?


There has never been an all Zerg semi-final.


Homestory Cup was an all zerg semis 2 months ago. He never specifically mentioned GSL. We've also had

IEM Bucharest ZvZ finals
last GSL ZvZ finals
MLG fall ZvZ finals
Ironsquid 3 Z's in the semis ZvZ finals
IPL 5 ZvZ finals
Blizzad Cup mass ZvZ besides Parting

I'm sure theres a couple I missed. Its been a mess. It's boring and unfair to the other races and the viewers. Time for a new start before even more viewers leave. I'm sure his opinion is in the majority.


So because we once had a all zerg semis people can complain about "not another all zerg semis" like we've only had all zerg semis.

Sure there's an oversaturation of ZvZ, no use denying that. The original "stop making jackasses of yourself" thing was about every second ZvZ whine basically saying about all zerg semi finals we've only had once.

"Unfair to the other races" is a pretty funny point though. I'm sure some zergs are still feeling their time in the limelight is only fair.

Getting a touch sick of all the complaining about zerg, specifically for the GSL, when this is the first Code S zerg have been number 1 in the race count. Sorry for ranting, I just wish people would stop falsifying reports to make themselves feel better.



It wouldn't be a problem if ZvZ matchup were more interesting and less coin-flippy.

complaining incoming:
Those games made me sick last night. I am so frustrated with the lack of variation Protoss gets in WoL. Its purely a turtle game and hiding behind a wall. I wish the Cybercore had a zealot speed upgrade so zergs would have to wall sometimes and prepare for a speedlot rush, or run by and get one of their hatches blown up. Or 20 phoenix coming in and harrassing you at every corner of your base and you have to run hydras back and forth on creep (like blink stalkers vs muta).

There is no variation. Toss has minor variations within a few builds, and don't go late game because some micro with a LOT of spines a few infestors and brood lords = instant win.

Anyhow - I am so happy to see WoL go - it could have been an amazing game, and I am so sad to see how horrible of a follow up we got to the greatest game ever: SC Brood War.
Seems like such simple fixes such as a zealot speed upgrade at cyber core, a infestor split of fungal growth and the root part of the spell into 2 seperate spells, and the removal of the infestor energy upgrade would make the infestor a unit used in conjunction with armies like the High Templar is; rather than being an army all alone (basically.) I also do not agree with Brood Lords - broodlings that create a wall of free units keeping units like HT out of position or impossible to flee.

All these things were on exhibit and I just watched my TV in frustration as I saw dopey cheesy builds that zerg can utilize that no other race even has a similar option - take the games and now we will possibly have a all zerg round of 4 and a zvz finals.

anyhow curious did play really well and so did symbol - but I thought innovation played better and got the short end of blizzards stick (except when he didn't scout the gold base.)

Please don't ban me.
