Leenock has beautiful crisis management. He really baits people into doing it by letting bunkers go up so easily around his natural. Very strange situation.

11 position Leenock is. 5 position Yoda is. 2:00 fast scout by leenock. Hatch first, Yoda with the 1 gas/rax opening, the force be with him.

Actually i believe that Leenocks ZvT is second to only DRG's.
vs Terran is probably Nestea's worsted matchup, when you really think about it. Not that hes bad at it lol.
Though i expect the next couple games to be quite a bit closer.

Leenock looked so much better than his opponent that game I'm having to try very hard not to go into fanboy mode and say he's destined to get back into Code S this season.

To be fair, I doubt NesTea spends his time helping Code A players of IM prepare for a match. I'm sure he (and the rest of the team) is much more concerned about getting NesTea ready for Code S matches. Probably the same with LosirA. I think this is quite true. When you see post match winning interviews, they rarely thank the players you would expect them to thank. It's often players from other teams, or just lesser known players on that team. Likely for all the reasons you said. Yea they usually practice with people who aren't in the GSL. Marineking practiced like 100 games per round for the super tourney. if youre in the GSL and not facing Terran for example, why would you practice 100 games with marineking? You would get someone on your team or friends from other teams you're not facing who arent in the tournament and have the free time to practice

To quote someone over at the GOM comments from season 2: "George Lucas taught an ewok to play Starcraft 2! Ewok hwaiting!!!"

Leenock has beautiful crisis management. I feel like if anyone can stop 2 rax bunker rushes it should be Leenock. He has sC to practice with and he's arguably one of the best 2raxers in the world
This is true. In that game, Wolf called it badly when he said that the Hatchery would go down... did he not see the 10 lings produced right after the pool finished? Felt like Leenock said to himself "ok, I know that I'm much better than this guy, so I'll overproduce lings and crush this 2-rax and I'll be in a good position". Which is exactly what happened; Yoda overcommitted to the attack, lost all his Marines and 4 or 5 SCVs, never looked like coming back.

Want Yoda to win so we can continue the Star Wars puns

Yoda going to do his suicidal hellion strat lol.

Here's the YoDa we all know and sort of love (depending on what race you play). Massive number of blue flame hellions incoming.

Will there be any Code S after Code A today?
And whats the current score for this match? The quality makes it impossible for me to read the score.

I used to not like leenock, but seeing as how he's one of the few korean zergs that connects his creep and spreads it has made me a fan.
