I'm a Tyler fan, but ThorZaIN played amazingly. GG.

The Better player won.

Pretty much, Tyler tried some unique tricks but it wasn't enough to break thorzaine. 3-0 is a rough score man....

Tyler played that build so so badly. You can tell he didn't practice it at all. His Gas timings were Way off, he had a Super late Twilight council, got blink before charge, didn't spend his chrono-boost well, and his third was Super late. When you play a heavy gateway style you WanT to have a ton more supply than your opponent due to supply inflation with cheap units, but he stayed even the whole time. Incredibly unimpressive play from Tyler

Really excited to see if Thorzain can show some consistency. Definitely my favourite up and coming foreigner at the moment. As much as I love Tyler, I'm sort of hoping he can pull something out to prove it wasn't just a fluke against FD.


*cough*.. Sick games. Well done Thorzain!

Haha very nice prediction. I had to miss his games against FD, and i am very impressed by ThroZaIN right now. He was very consistent today, and i think he has a good chance of getting pretty far in this tourney. GG

Tyler's biggest mistakes IMO:

Game 1: Going colossus vs mass Thor+Strike Cannon
Game 2: Blink stalker all in... I just haven't seen it work vs. Terran FE but maybe it works.
Game 3: Getting blink before charge when he was so zealot+sentry heavy.

Incredibly smooth game from Thorzain and some bad decisions from Tyler. Guess he was a bit shaken from the last games.

dissappointing play from nony ...


I agree he played poorly...
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

Not suprised by this result. Thorzain is really good that was known before. And I havent seen much from Tyler (following sc2 competitive scene/tourneys since half a year now).

Tyler got greedy and didn't make charge in time, and that costed him a game.
You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity

Some great plays by Thornzain, especially the upgrades. Seems like he has a shot at this TSL.

WC3 vs BW -_-

Thorzain is a beast, wasnt expected that lopsided


No. It's SC2 vs SC2.

Stop comparing the two.
I have a dream, that some day I wouldn't see any imba comments in GSL threads.

He's not overrated. He just played bad this series and ThorZaiN is underrated.

Erm, he's overrated like crazy. People hype him all the time yet he's done nothing special in sc2.

Tyler scouts close position first despite the map only allowing cross-spawns. Thorzain with 10-rax-gas, Tyler with 10-gate. Probe scout is surrounded in the mineral line and loses the probe to a mass of SCVs that converge upon it!

Cyber core done for Tyler, tech lab on the rax. Thorzain gets a CC at his nat.

Now 4:10.

5:15
Tyler playing very safe, no expo up. Reaper out for Thorzain, scouting for ninja expos. Tyler with 3-gate-robo and obs before expo.

7:15
Tyler now with his trademark double-forge strat by building two forges. His natural is now done, with 1 gas gyser taken. Obs is snipped at the terran main by a scan+marines.

8:25
Starport now being made. Bio army for Thorzain. Tyler making gates. Both players happy to macro up and wait. Both players scout with reaper+obs. Repear picks of 3 probes before dying. 1-1 done for Tyler, 1-0 for the terran bio.

10:15
Tyler with Twilight Council now I believe. Thorzain has 2 medivacs, more on the way with Combat Shields and +1 bio armour. Twilight Council on the way for Tyler. Vikings being made now as well.

Tyler saved up a lot of chrono, possibly for the Twilight.

2-2 on the way for Protoss.

12:30
Tyler pokes the terran natural but doesn't take a 3rd yet. Both commentators mention this. 2-2 being chrono-ed. 3rd now being made at 12.

13:40
Tyler gets blink before charge despite his large zealot force. Thorzain floats a CC to 6. Thorzain with 6-rax and 2 ports I think?

No robo units for Tyler so far.

15:35
Thorzain also has 2-2 on his bio. Both armies fight outside the Protoss nat but no charge for Tyler means his zealots are slowed by conc shells and marines chew them out. Tyler blinks around for a good concave but the landed vikings help him squeak out an edge. The remnants of the terran army attack into the Protoss natural!

17:15
Immortal comes out, but dies immediately. Charge finally done but almost all the zealots are dead. Tyler's 3rd dies! Thorzain macroing up hard, 3-3 almost done for him. He makes a 4th at 5.

Tyler gets disconnected when he tried to leave, no gg.

Thorzain wins!

[image loading] (P)TLAF-Liquid`Tyler 0 vs 3 [image loading] (T)Prae.ThorZaIN

Thorzain is a Terran Monster using different strategies!

THIS IS AN ANTISPOILER POST I AM USING FOR THE ROUNDUP. IGNORE THIS!

Clever, keep the great LR up as well! Not going to be able to watch next week, LR will make that a bit less horrible.

I'm suprised people actually see the result as an upset. It would be a huge upset if Tyler would have won. ThorZain is known all over Europe for insane TvP... -_-
