The decision of when to stutter step, and how much you do it before it starts to work against you can be impressive. Also, it looks cool!

The placement of FF's is a test of your intelligence, which says a lot about a player. It's not necessarily the execution of them (although no overlapping ff's is not that easy to do very quickly). You dont need to be that smart to be able to figure good FF placement lets face it... lol, do you even play on the ladder, there are often more fail FF than good ones, and most good ones comes from having like 15 sentries and being lucky. Most FF ends up block/traping their own units.

I think that was the first good game today. Not spectacular or anything, but finally neither player messed up badly.

And the whole thing kinda backfired on him. Poor MC. Lets see who is counting the money at the end 1-3 doesn't seem like he's going to come back with a 4-0 player (Select) and four 3-1s in his group. It's possible, I guess, but I think it looks like Select and Ace are going to qualify from Division 4. Don't like the top 20 qualify for a bracket as well? I recall there was some other way to make it through. If MC wins out he could end up 6-3 which overall isn't terrible.

Top two just gets seed, i have faith in him still even if he doesnt reach top two which i think he will.

That's like saying you don't need to be smart to press S R so ZvP is easy. -_- Nice push from Whitera, cleaning up. I was about to say that.

I hate it when commentators try to stage turn-arounds.
E.g. "It looks like he'll have enough...
But never mind! These roaches are too much!
The stalker count is just too high for him...
AND HERE COME THE MUTAS
etc.

Yes you do. Look at Slayers_Alicia's FF placements in his games compared to your average master player.

"You just aren't adaptable" "SHUT UP."

Whitera's FF usage that game- especially considering his location - was nothing short of amazing. If you don't think so you probably don't play protoss.

I would hate it if the casters could just predict everything that is gonna happen all game. It's more exciting to see superficial "comebacks" and in the moment excitement.
