He got too confident and dismished his opponent's supposed weakness as simply himself being better. Like Idra he lost to 2 times unconventional (in lack of better word) builds.
Check lost ruined my day

don't know why so many players still favor them : /, such a crappy unit design imo, without charge utter crap for it's immensly high cost, with charge too good to be true
For good players, units that are "unreliable" becomes reliable. It's not as if Void Rays have random abilities. It's not rolling the dice. It just takes alot of management to use. Void rays are actually one of the reasons why terrans don't wall-in. It makes it so easy to maintain the charge while the protoss army supports it. This wasn't just send in void rays only and hope it is not countered. This is a build where even if it is scouted, it is still hard to stop. The strat just got less popular after void ray range got nerfed but HongUn still made it work. WhiteRa did it all the time in the beta.

Fair enough.

No, I'm serious. If people don't pay attention when they move their banelings around the statue, the banelings suicide into it. I once did that by accident and raged massively.

Quarter-finals tomorrow. Rethink what you said. They're still 8 people left in the tournament.

Man sSKS/Tester is a beast.
He gets right up to a point where i, in my measly newbie ways, am losing with 8 of 10 marauders surviving and happily mashing my base... and proceeds to crush it, with half his army surviving.
Also, the way i see drops being deflected in many of the GSL games really inspires me. I want to be able to do this! :o

GOMTV should hire more skilled interview interpreter. Or at least he needs more practice and training on interpretation.
I have watched the English stream this time and I found he didn't tell enough in English from player's answers. He only told the points in a few words. I think he couldn't express the details in English.

Which according to previous threads is exactly what he's been told to do.

He essentially has to keep it brief because they have very little time for the interviews. It's all squeezed into the Korean commercial break.

I'm Korean native so I knew the original answers. If you understand the original answers most of you will be annoyed. His translation is in this style:
Artosis: why did you do A? Player: I did it by mistake during preparing something against opponent's something. The translator: he did it by mistake.
Artosis: What is your feeling about B? Player: I feel good because it's blahblah. The translator: Ah... he feels good.

yeah unfortunately he's been instructed to summarize what the players say, it's not his fault but a result of the circumstances (squeezing the interviews into the commercial break)

Interesting... I did notice that answers lacked analysis but I assumed it was players fault...

Both of those units getting owned from a battlecruiser
edit : btw the 2gate to vray push is becoming standard play lately for toss players rather than 1gate robo
