Im willing to very that most of the issues with this game would be solved if you weren't forced to play on garbage blizzard maps and their hard on for small short rush distance maps.

Disappointing to hear that the games weren't all that spectacular. Seems like we had more BBBPrime style action. That's too bad. It's just happening too often in TvZ.

Gom should try use the old BW maps lol. A slap to KeSPA and also a good move to attract more (BW) fans to the GSL.

My wish for GSL 3 is: That we not only have a winner with a new race. It's time that we have a foreigner as the new champ. Hope that Jinro makes it to the finals and is victorious.


Agree.

I'd drop my protoss bias for my foreigner/TeamLiquid bias ANY day :D

This is a sad day for Zergs. If you follow tournaments like me you might have noticed how lately except for GSL zergs have been getting stomped in EU and NA (similarly to the days before the patch). GSL was the last thing that kept me from thinking about balance again. But now I see my hunch was right.
I will not scream unbalanced yet, but I will say something is fishy at the moment. After this, top Zergs will need to find a way to shift metagame again if it is possible and if not ask for (at least) marine nerfs.

Anyways, watching Nestea lose to early all in marine/scv pushes was very painful and not fun at all.

At the moment since Jinro is the only terran that does not do this to win against Zergs I can only cheer for him (foreigner or not).

Obviously we'll get the same result as the previous GSLs. The weak race (now P) will have one lone player versus the big bad T mafia in semis, but will come out victorious. So....

Flash lost because he took two heavy risks in game 4 (BBS) and game 5 (blind 14CC) and none of them payed off. That's Flash: he takes risks, cuts corners, and does whatever possible to win and sometimes it just doesn't work and he looks like a retard in the process. Sometimes it does work and that results in Jaedong getting squished into a pulp by three 14CCs in a row or something similar.

Nestea didn't do anything out of the ordinary, just poor preparation really so not even close to the same situation.

He didn't lose game 5 because he went blind 14 cc. He could have blocked the ling all in. He just mismicroed where he made a gap for the lings to runby. It was a split second mistake. Even if he went 1 rax expo if he made the same mistake he would have lost. Game 3 is a better example where he took a risk by moving out with his rines and got them surrounded and lost because of that.

I cannot agree P is a weak race. Unlike GSL1 where except for Fruitdealer Zergs were getting stomped in all tournaments all over the world, Protoss is/was only doing bad in Korea. For this whole time Protoss players were winning or being in top 4 regularly in EU and NA.

just finished watching VODS

read mod's edit in OP. No complaining? well that's unusual.. but anyway i'll take my chances coz I believe this has to be said: this season level is obviously subpar to gsl2

jinro's gonna win this season np, he's the only one that has showcased a solid enough gameplay

lol ? oGsMC is the best protoss. If MK beats him (which I highly doubt), I don't see HongUn winning against him.

So the Zerg streak has been broken!

It would be amazing if we got a PvP finals.

Effort was good. He continued to punish Flash after that series, despite being in a sort of post-championship slump. Someone once commented that he was the anti-Flash, and even though I find that a bit too dismissive, it describes what happened between them well.

NesTea really isn't a Flash. They might both go for THA ECON-CHZ but NesTea's win in GSL2 was defined more by his opponent's mistakes than his own successes, in my opinion.
High five :---)

When seeing all those all-ins by Rain I could not help but ask myself, why did NesTea not make not make more spines? In BW it was totally common for Zerg to sunken up when the first push from Terran came. Is it that spines take too long? Are they too expensive? I mean, they can walk, so they can be useful in mid to late game, for instance to protect expansions from drop-harass.

But maybe it is also a question of timing. Perhaps Zerg just have to figure out the critical rush timings, and then they will be better off. I'm just speculating though.

thanks, but looks like they stopped doing that a month ago.
Imo they should just have it in the normal VODs of the matches, where it says Set 1 2 3, the next button should just be "match winner interview"

huh? gomcam is still uploaded every match day. make sure you're at season 3 and not season 2.
