My god, Foxer vs Kyrix I think was the best series of Starcraft 2 ever played yet. Just an all-out slugfest right in the middle of the map for that first game, so impressive to see a player just go "hard countering my units? pfft, not a problem, let me just continue what I'm doing" and rely completely on his micro. That was seriously Boxer Immortal Marines level micro, if I was the real Boxer I'd be impressed that this guy was enough of a fan to name himself after me.

On a side note, is it just me or did HopeTorture look really down in his interview?

this guy is like the boxer of sc2, instead of sooking he gets the job done
He who turns those around him into allies, possesses the most terrifying ability in the world.

Was Foxer involved in any way in the Day 9 Monobattles?

That was insanely fun to watch XD

Awesome, awesome games today. Though

I think Kyrix could have won by a comfortable margin if he just built a few infestors. You need FG for those giant bio balls. But who am I to criticize? Chances are with the number of marines that were getting thrown at him, he'd need more energy than would be cost effective :-/

I thinky Kyrix could have won if he did a couple of things differently...honestly if he had one or two empty overlords in that drop attempt in game 5 (on the marines) he would have probably won, or if he hit the orbital, as someone else said, or if he dropped the main, etc. etc.

What was disappointing for me was that I saw Kyrix get OL drop, then fail at using it once. He should take a cue from Fruit Dealer (infestor fungal or decoy overlords, or distraction, whatever) and perhaps he should try surrounding more often, since FoxeR is fond of stutter stepping.

Can't even see how people can glorify Kyrix so much. He knows where the Morph Baneling button is, nothin' else. So glad Foxer took it, probably the best SC2 baller at this time.


How can you not see how awesome Kyrix was? Do you realize how good his macro has to be to keep pumping larvae inefficient units nonstop like lings and banelings all the time? That is what impressed me the most, his nonstop production of those larvae inefficient units and keeping up on macro and get bases up, creep etc.

Both players played awesome and it came down to a close game 5. I am glad they are S-Class so we can see them play more in the future. Most exciting series in GSL by far.

Read the interview and think before thinking foxer is dumb for saying if he had gone infestors it would have been worse.

With the amount of aggression that fake boxer was doing and zerg was barely holding them off as it is imagine if he had spent 300 gas (150 for infestation pit then 150 for the infestor itself). That would be less banelings/roaches and terran would have won earlier. Not only that but having to wait for that infestor to get 25 energy is killer too. Fake boxer said when his teamates tried they lost due to the aggression.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Between EMP and banshees protoss will never win a GSL vs terran, and vs zerg with Roach hydra corrupter with no ability to Feedback = gg. Protoss is just too predictable.

I have to thank GSL for introducing me to Fallbrooke, very good sound. One line of lyrics in a commercial b/w games was all it took to get me hooked.

Wow.... just wow.

Kyrix has to regret losing all those overlords in game 1.

Amazing Marine micro the whole series.

To be entirely fair Toss has to get Robo to detect DTs and also Zerg needs to get an overseer to detect both banshees and DTs if you want mobile detection. That being said cannons will always be an option and sometimes I go for cannons if I scout Banshees or DTs and dont want to haveto delay my tech by getting Robo since forges are only minerals and they give you the option to get upgrades you will need eventually anyway.

It sucks that Protoss can not quick tech to anything without foregoing mobile detection unless your tech tree is Robotics based anyway. I feel that is the proper way to be frustrated at the detection options for Protoss. They limit our fast tech options whereas the fast tech options for the other 2 races do not limit their detection options (lair you need for tech and starport you get for tech).
