Remember the showmatches between TLO and Nada at gamescom? Last I remeber TLO is also playing terran. And how! | ||

Personally i think the top korean terrans about the same as morrow, demuslim, bratok. Hope some of the top "foreiners" go to next gsl. I feel that Cool is very very solid, but Check just makes zerg look so fun. Who else throws down 200/200 worth of lings and banelings and comes out ahead? ITR is the same deal - his terran is so much more fun to watch. I really like TLO, but he's got a tough fight to get past Tester if he makes it past his round. It's also unfair for me that he's in that same bracket. | ||

So no, Hydras are NOT cost effective vs Stalkers. The fact that stalkers have 6 range and high speed right away make it even worse. Unit density plays a role as well and that actually makes hydra very good against stalkers. You can simply get more hydra in the same amount of space as you can stalkers and that increases their DPS. With armies of these two units having good position is by far the most important factor in even battles. I watched the Zenio game and boy did he screw up. I was watching him throw those hydra away and thinking "what the heck is he thinking?" I mean it was the worst decision I've seen a player make in the tournament so far. He needed the corruptors out earlier (and in greater numbers) and with his extra expansions going up would have won the macro war. I really wanted to see more zerg go through but the truth is that both Zenio and IdrA have thrown away games at key moments. Also, I loved tankboy's harass on scrap station. It really was some of the best terran play you'll see (forgetting his silly little refinery problems at the start of the game). | ||

I actually thought that blizzard would make up some excuse and delay the patch until after the GSL season 1 and before GSL season 2. I'd hate to see blizzard sabotage their own tournament esp if there are unannounced big changes in the patch. | ||

The real interesting thing is - Patch 1.1 launches Wednesday... won't that be like Ro16 Day 2? | ||

It's the Moon Festival in Taiwan, not sure what the holiday is over there. Works out perfectly actually since it'll be in the down time between the RO32 and 16. | ||

I'd hate to see blizzard sabotage their own tournament esp if there are unannounced big changes in the patch. On GomTV.net: The Korean Thanksgiving holiday is next week from Sept. 21st (Tues.) to Sept. 23rd (Thur.). Therefore there will be no matches during the three days of the holiday. Final matches of Ro32 will be held on Sept. 20th (Mon.) and the first matches of Ro16 will begin after the holiday on Sept. 24th (Fri.). I wonder if Blizzard and GomTV discussed this... In anycase players have a couple of days to see what the patch brings. | ||

Total $170,000 1st $85,700 2nd $25,700 3rd $8,600 4th $8,600 5th-8th $3,400 9th-16th $1710 17th-32nd $430 33th-64th $260 ( http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/GOMTV_Starcraft_II_Open_1 ) It's so skewed to first (85k for #1 vs 25k for #2?!) and third and fourth both get the same amount. These numbers don't make any sense at all -- I'd love to know who came up with them and how/why. | ||
