I am really sorry for Ret as I am cheering for all non-korean players.

However I am tired of you ppl notoriously complaining about 1 base style, cheese style and SCV push style.

This is pro-scene. They are not playing to pleasure your expectations but to win. Get with it. If you wanna some long game macro drama SC2 might disappoint you for quiet long.


That last game which Artosis said it was cheese was just stupid. Ret played well, but TheBest came up with creative 1 base pressure to apply to Ret and was able to break him. It was a display of great multitasking and army control. Hardly cheese. I sometimes wish Artosis would bite his tounge at times.

Artosis seemed to suggest that Ret won't get A-class..
I'm not sure how certain he is of this.. but without further info, I'd trust Artosis on this.

He's assuming that getting ro32 gets u to A class atleast. He's forgetting to count in the people that managed to get into ro64 twice or all 3 gsl's but did not make it further. So all in all Artosis might be right but I don't have the spreadsheet of the numbers for this to back this up.
There are repeated Ro32 showings too, so for every player who made it into the Ro32 twice, there could be another player who didn't make the Ro32 once who gets A-code.

Is there a risk Ret will be leaving South Korea because of this loss? Didn't he say he'd stay for some time?

I am also very curious about this, I hadn't really seen Ret play before this GSL but damn he is so good, I really want to see more of that guy. Made me so sad to see him go out today, even though he lost I still consider him the superior player of the two just because of how solid his play is.

Ret simply didn't deserve to go through, he played quite bad. He simply didn't adopt to the terran's playstyle at all.

+ Show Spoiler +

Game 1 he took a risky broodlord tech, decent option against mech terran but he was a bit slow with it imo. If terran took the natural and the 3rd and then went viking Ret actually would have lost probably. His first reaction with the roaches was horrible as he took a WAY too long route with the roaches to come from the back getting the other roaches killed already before arriving.

Game 2 he played extremely greedy again. Even losing some stuff to the first poke off 1 base and then simply dying to banshee's. Why didn't he try to change up his game for 1 game or something at least, also his ovie scouting wasn't too good here.

Game 3 he should have held easily with the way jungle basin lets you protect the ramp. All he had for the first attack was basically queens and like 4 lings and it seems like he was completely surprised. Afterwards he kept scouting T had no expo yet he went muta anyway and droned up too much. He was constantly late getting (bane)lings in this matchup which lost him the game.

As for map pool, he can't really complain. Sure steppes is pretty awful (and almost every zerg got it coindedentally, as if they try to balance the results through maps a bit) but meta cross is about the best for Z and jungle basin is quite fine too.




finally someone saying this. i totally agree with u. can we be friends?


Why do your replies always make me feel like you have some issues with Ret? Even though it might be true that Ret played worse than in practice games, the fact that a teammate comes to point that out just feels..iffy.
this game is a fucking jokie

People are upset cause we were really cheering for you Ret. It sucks to see your favorite player lose and just like with sports, everyone has an oppinion about what you could have done better. Its the downside of being popular and "famous".

The first "real" GSL should be in January, right? So, the earliest Ret could play in the top GSL would be in March.

Jinro has it worse. He has to play on Scrap Station and Blistering Sands. I'm putting forward a conspiracy theory that GOM really wants to see a Boxer vs. Moon match.

Hopefully this season provides some impetus for GOM and that new players union to get together to decide on some non-Blizzard maps for GSL 2011.

So I'm honestly offended. People have been telling me I'm terrible because I use carriers in PvT. They continuously say that carriers just don't work, they're horrible, vikings destroy them if they get scouted, they're cost inefficient AND that they CANNOT work at high level play.

FUCK ALL THE NAYSAYERS!

Carriers are the answer people, Hongunprime is my savior. Like seriously people, don't knock shit you don't know.

You did watch the interview after the match where he basically said: "I felt like I was going to loose anyway to I thought, what the hell I'll go Carriers. For the Fans."

And in the Korean Interview he asked for a Carrier Armor Buff. Even HongUp doesn't think Carriers are the solution to PvT.

P.D. HongUp The Fans love you!

I can't emphasize this enough. People are upset/disappointed because they care and cheer for you. It's the same deal with your national team at World Cup, when they lose despite giving their all, people will initially demand their heads on a plate - just to love each and every one of them to bits after next victory. People need to direct their disappontment and anger at someone and the player(s) is the obvious choice.

Don't let it get to you.

Im really mad at gom/blizzard tbh its so selfish of em to make people not being able to veto just to show "all maps". The player can get screwed like ret did this game just by map and its just plain bad.
, taking away the ability to veto maps is just fking ridicilous, gsl coinflip tourney.

Ive payed for all 3 seasons ticket pass, but if theese idiotic rules who screw really good players over continue i might just cancel. Its ruining the whole experience,

Its kinda like the dreamhack coinflip....

Ret fighting!
