You won't, what he did isn't new. He just does so much around it. Scouting, Keeping units active and great multitasking.

FXO got handled hard 
There were several points where the FXO players had the upperhand but they just threw it away with poor decision making/micro/macro.
i lold so hard when slogs army just got baited into a nuke. GSTL highlight reel for sure.

*sigh* My liquibets will never recover... I mean, ZeNEX got all-killed in the last 2 GSTLs, and now they all-kill? I'm so confused XD

Moreover, if it was true what he said about lack of team scouting, well, the results are quite logical. This team league is all about studying and guessing the opponents, that's what makes large teams more powerful, as they are less predictable.

yeah MrCon,you should make polls like.
Recommend Set1,Set2,Set3 etc. so that you don't reveal the winner of the previous sets.

What kind of strategies Sage used? game1: weird pheonix/zealot harassment style after a FFE -> into storm + chargelot + pheonix + archongame3 (vs sC): voidray + gateway rush -> contained sC, and took the gold while preventing sC from moving anywhere, starved sC to death missed the other 2 games sorry looks like the SC2 version of the BW playstyle. did he get +1 for his Zealots?
His strategies were technically simple.
Game 1 he harassed with zealots and phoenix. Game 2 he did a forcefield contain Game 3 he did DT harass
What was most impressive was his map control, his game sense, his scouting, his tactical decision making, strategic decision making.
You watch him play and you feel as if protoss strategies are overpowered because you've never seen it executed both flawlessly and easily. That last part is important. He made it look like Protoss was an incredibly easy race to play (and not in the A-Move kind of way). He looked like MacGuyver with a paper clip, he had so few units and made them do SO much that it almost felt like Stalkers were not countered by marauders. that Zerg is the immobile race and that Protoss was the mobile, it looked like Colossus was not really that important in killing marines and hydralisks. His execution seemed effortless strategically speaking. That's what made it so beautiful.

What the hell? Two all-kills in one day? Madness!

I just watched slog vs hack to see why it was so highly recommended. Unfortunately it was highly recommended for all the wrong reasons.

Lol very true. However, still worth it to see a nuke being used like that.

I can't believe FXO didn't play Sheth and qxc again. They're clearly the strongest players. I understand playing someone else first, but once you start losing, bring out your strongest players!

He's incredible too Forgot about Puzzle. I guess we have HuK, too. And oGsHero.
alicia is overrated....
