Incontrol completely deserved those two wins. TLO's scouting mistakes were inexcusable, especially in a tournament setting. You make sure you rule out every possibility no matter how silly it sounds.
TLO did not play well. Being the player that Incontrol is, he saw and just took advantage of it. A player of his caliber isn't just going to let an easy chance to punish dumb play slip out of his hands.

well good job with that pylon incontrol!
You do realize that this was TLO's mistake which is why he lost? If you are Terran and you do not fully scout inside your base, any Protoss will take that opportunity and kill you.

because its boring and has nothing to do with actual skill(the essence of competive play) ?
He took the probe out, then did a double back and TLO didn't notice. That's pretty deceptive. He also had to count on TLO not placing the bunkers closer to his orbital. Anyway, there's plenty of skill in knowing when to proxy pylon.

Why is everyone "this was planned cheese" if they see something like it. Was it not a good reaction of inControl realizing that the probe wasn't scouted - moved in a second 'fake' probe and then built 3 more gates and the pylon. Similiar to Huk-HasuObs, seeing the opportunity, one should take it!

this, inc would have almost been TRYING to lose if he didnt do that. It was far too easy not to.
i dont hate the guy for cheesing (except that it was to TLO)... but it doesnt do much towards proving you belong. if he has any interest in proving that he deserves the farce of an invite to nasl he should play in a sustainable and intelligent way and then mix in the cheese after a while. he is doing it backwards and is leaving himself exposed in many ways. more power to the guy that wins, but my respect goes to the guy that does it in a complete and convincing way.
