Pretty cool to see that San moved on too, going to have to check that series out given the recs I guess.
Anypro showing some nice phoenix usage this game Why the unnecessary hate towards tester? Did he do something to you? You could say the same about BitByBit - did he do anything to you? You compare Tester to bitbybit? I don't get that logic maybe you can elaborate. Tester goes for macro games bitbybit all ins... Of course not - I was pointing out how ridiculous the question "did he do something to you?" was. Oh, come on. Don't try to pull that. You clearly make a statement implying a comparison between Tester and BitByBit, then you pretend that you meant nothing by it. Unless of course you're dense enough to not realize what you imply when you say certain things... but I'd like to think you're more intelligent than that. And you didn't even answer his first question. Why all the unnecessary hate? He's a fine player. His biggest weakness is very questionable decision-making, but he's solid.
I like Tester, but he's definitely not very solid. He generally does very cheesy openings or really economically greedy builds. He just never seems to play safe (except sometimes in PvP ironically) so for every amazing game he plays where we see his talent, he loses another 5 becuz his build was too risky.

Wow all the toss are playing so well this season. hmmm...... Trying to insinuate things, nice. anyPro/Sanzenith legitimately beat all their opponents. Nice Micro/Macro, good timings etc. You can't say they haven't improved, despite balance.
I'm just frurtrated. Yes, they have improved a lot. I admit.
But all them do very similar strategies, I personally find all these game so boring to watch. Forge FE and throw down a lot of gates. Zerg has to build some units to defend cuz toss can push anytime. Wait for 5 colossus and beat the zerg cuz he cant gas enough to get the corrupters he needs, cuz he build hydras earlier.
I don't care so much for balance when watching these games but it just has been so one-sided and you can't deny that all these zergs are playing very good games too, especially the wind.

Zergs keep getting destroyed by that phoenix opening, e.g. idra in IEM.
its hard to deal with. it forces hydra, and transitions easily into colossus

I would say 1 base or 2 base allins are the only viable strats at the pro level for Zerg right now. Zerg need to win or do big damage before the late mid game kicks in.

There's four Protoss, I'm pretty sure... don't know why someone said there was 5.

5 protoss, if Tester advanced, that woulda been 6 protoss in ro8!!!
sucks PvP is horrible to watch
4 toss not 5. San, anypro, MC and HongUn.
3 terrans. NaDa, sC and Lyn.
1 zerg. THE GOD OF WAR.

San has a incredible chance to be in the finals, gl to him.

Obiously building a ton of Spine Crawlers to defend that bottom right is a no brainer, but Zerg are always told that Spine Crawlers are things they "dont want to make".
Spine Crawlers would only have delayed the push. Collosus with Thermal Lance outrange Spines, so they would have been a waste of minerals. Once that deathball is created, it's incredibly difficult for Z to get back into the game.

Yeah, that's why I called his decision making extremely questionable. He is by no means a bad player, however, and isn't really all that cheesy. The only reason I can think of for all the anti-Tester sentiment around here suddenly is that some Zergs are still bitter about his PvZ style last season.

Yeah its impossible unless you spread creep. Which Korean Zergs are so adverse to. You need to have creep connecting all your bases even your 3rd (which wont be fully running)

Man, this sucks. I missed EVERY GAME! I didn't know it came on early on Friday, ffs... Any way I can watch any of the games? I'm gonna watch the TL recommended games if I can.
No ticket btw. Yes. Get a ticket.
Wow, way to be a real asshole. If I had money for a ticket, I would buy one, np. However, I currently don't even have internet. I've been getting WiFi from my m8 next door for quite a while now. How about a legit answer next time, like "Sorry, but you can't."

i missed kisoo's match with scfou, but apparently he lost.
is sc that good or did he just capitalized on kisoo's mistakes?
I really dont think sc is THAT good. I, for one, know he won't get to the finals. But that's just me though.

It seems incredibly inbalanced for Zerg and Terran players on the new maps.. hopefully blizzard can get all the late game balances down
|
Lyn fighting! Good to see hes finally putting some results down.
Also 5th race fighting for IEM championship!
|
Good plays by Anypro, looking foward to his match vs SCFOu

scf0u outplayed him pretty much. kisoo doesn`t look that good at all ever since beta and gsl 1.
