Awsome games, awsome finals. Althogh i was hoping for BoxeR, NesTea really deserved it, and I think and hope BoxeR will be back next season hopefully going far then too.
Artosis, I love your commentating, but your Zergbias is really getting to me and taking away from the overall enjoyment. Am I the only one who thinks that?
I noticed a lot of people on the forum complaining about it before I ever really noticed it myself, but later on it got to be a bit much I guess.

Never thought I'd ever see more of Zergbong, unfathomable how this bw scrubzerg can sweep the biggest sc2 tournament. Where old heroes like Boxer and Nada faltered, Zergbong does it, somehow. It's going to be so good to watch this series ^^
Zerg fighting ^^

Great finals a great GSL and with the amount of foreigners swarming to season three it's only going to get better.
BoxeR might of had some "cheesy" builds but you still have to control the units and he did so impeccably all tournament save the last game. The kids 18 and can only get better.
<3 Tastosis for a job well done.

After his days as a player he was a coach so lots of analysis, critique of other players, coming up with BO advantages vs other players etc etc, probably improved his skillset as a player a large amount.

dont know what kind of games the majority is used to. this GRAND finale was utter bullshit without beeing negativ to foxer but his strats just showed how bad sc2 is balanced early mid late and race compared to bw.
while Im inclined to agree with your sentiment to me it more showed that fake Boxer was going to try as hard as possible to not get to late game because he felt uncomfortable, as some others have mentioned already.
the game is getting there, it will take time. it will take more balance patches and more good maps and more of players figuring out the strongest way to play the game. the level of skill I saw in the finals, for such a young game, easily blows away the kids who have been playing halo and COD and WOW "competitively" for quite some time now.
someone is going to figure out how to limit there being so much 1a stuff and then SC2 will flourish, Im sure of it as long as people continue to play the game.

Game 3 was WOW. Just WOW. Foxer pulls his scvs and BAM. Power of the X button :D
|
Disappointed Boxer didn't show off a macrogame. G1 was an awesome way to begin the series, but I would have loved to see a 30minute whole map game. Zergbong's play on LT was pretty beastly though. Otherwise the games were alright.
|
Most pros in Korea think that there is no way for Terran to win over Zerg on a late, macro game. That's why Foxer, Boxer, and other top Terran players in Korea tend to finish the game early.
|
it was a very unsatisfying final with marines. I don't want to watch marines rush all day. I could be playing marine arena.
|
First 5 games are all worth watching.
|
Anyone giving FoxeR shit should remember that he was the only one to actually take games off of Nestea, and IMO FoxeR he lost the series more than Nestea won it
|
Disappointing finals. Only 1 game with 3rd bases, no extended back-and-forth games.
The Thor drop game was allright, the nydus on Scrap was nice, but besides that not very memorable finals.

Yeah. Match 7 made my jaw drop.
He let his whole army be surrounded by drones, when they are the same speed, when he had mules mining for reinforcement marines.
I was scared for Tea for a minute, but when he got that surround I was facepalming FoxeR..
|
I just watched the finals. The games were impressive, Nestea indeed got extremely good desicion making skills. I would have loved to see some late-game TvZ from these two players but hey  Boxer's aggresive style does not seem to transition very well into late game.
All in all I have two things to say,
1st: making banshees is a useful skill toi have.
2nd: FOR THE SWARM !!!!! ZERG HWAITING !!!!!!

FoxeR is sick as hell, zerg op.

ok we get it, your an angry kid. please do not derail...

my little zerg heart was bleeding after the first two games.. I thought it was over but decided to stay up and I'm so glad I did. The tension in game 7... I thought nestea was done when the initial BO's were revealed but nestea responded and micro'd perfectly.
FOR THE SWARM!!

so glad foxer lost. I really don't get all the hype around this kid. IMHO his play isn't even great and really gives credit to the argument made by sc1 elitists that sc2 is just hyper aggro donk silly and easy.
It would of been terrible for sc2 if a kid with nothing past the 10 minute mark going for him (except for in games where he already did mega damage with his early cheese) won it all. At least for people with insight into what the game COULD be rather than this all-in 1 base garbage.
I mean look at this series..it went 7 rounds and we didnt see one late -dynamic -huge decision making- apm game . You know the type of games that makes people see SC as a game of insane skill and draws in spectators to it as an e-sport. The type of games that monsters like Nada bust out and just make your jaw drop.
Good Riddance to bad rubbish.
