Who says Protoss domination is dead? It's the maps, mostly. Well, some truth in that . . . | ||

In the MSL it's likely he'll face Jaedong in a Bo5. In the invitational he'll face Flash and Anytime with a rematch against Savior. In OSC a Hwasin match is likely. A rise to the number 2, or even number 1 spot is possible! Yet, an epic fail could drop him out of the power rank altogether. Even if you don't like Mind, you'll have to agreed that his games are exciting to watch. May he outsmart all competition, prove wrong all liquidbet doubters, and (gasp) win fans! | ||

That's very true Its like FirebatHero - you might think he's kind of a fag but goddamn his games are fun to watch | ||

sAviOr's ELO peak was 2301 (about a year ago, vs Much in Shinhan-3 OSL). One more win, and . . . wow. He's just a cut above the rest right now. The others were somewhat tough calls, I guess. Good job Fakesteve for making sense of last month's tumult. Sea will be back on the list soon, but sAviOr . . . I wish . . . I hope . . . | ||

I'm not denying the kid is good, but econ, macro, macro, perfectly timed push every single game is not the style of terran I'd call exciting to watch... Mind's mechanics aren't actually that good, his macro and micro are nothing special he is, however, utterly relentless. you should watch some of his TvZs, theyre really fun | ||

 I can't really recall the other 2 making any real impression on me though. | ||

He's got a brain (Mind > GORILLA MACRO hurhurhur), a good grasp of all three matchups and some absolutely brilliant timing which allows what mechanics he has to go a long way. I'm not arguing any of that, I just don't find that playstyle to be particularly interesting in general. Basically I'd rather watch Upmagic even if he doesn't win as much :x I'll have to make some time in the next couple days to watch his series against Savior I guess. I started following the scene in the middle of Gom S3 and can't really remember when I actually started watching the vods, so I can't recall if I've actually seen those games or not. | ||

He should atleast be put on the "Close But No Cigar" for his games vs Anytime (not the first one, he sucked ass there), cantana and the first game vs Yarnac. He is getting back in form, fuck the non believers :<! | ||
