Not a single good game the whole semi finals. Are you kidding me. GSL needs to change their tournament format or something. This is not working. Depressinggggg.

The format is fine, we had the potential for MC vs Nestea and Losira vs Bomber/Byun. Its just it didn't work out like that, the game is too volatile.

If GSL is smart they will organize 3 show matches at the finals lol.

I hope two of them will be TvT and PvP showmatches so that you guys will finally understand how much better ZvZ is than TvT and PvP.

Yes, it would be good if MC didn't give HongUn his first 3 televised PvP victories. Or Byun could play TvZ.

What the fuck are you talking about? How can you say Games 2 (and 1 to a lesser extent) of Losira Byun were not entertaining. Yes there were sloppy errors which led to losses, but they were very good. Also the first two Nestea HongUn games were rather good also.

The only reason it seems one sided was because the scores were 3-0. But a lot of the games today were close.

EDIT: And how the heck is changing the format going to change anything.

The format is almost identical to the MSL format. Dual tournament ro32, bo3 ro16 followed by bo5 for ro8 and ro4.

The only difference is MSL reseeds the players in the ro8 based on kespa ranking and the finals are bo5 instead of bo7.

Haha, are you seriously blaming the GSL for the quiality of the games. That's completely out of their hands. There's nothing wrong with the format.


The semis were pretty interesting to me

PS Nothing to do with the GSL format lol

GSL format is like the same as most other formats anyways...They don't have a loser's bracket, but it would be waay too long and drawn out if there was.

Why do people wish it was Nestea vs Byun in the finals? Look at how boring the Losira vs Byun semis were. Nestea vs Byun would have been even more one sided.

Funny how everyone is bitching so much about zerg right now and bringing up random players when the definitively better player won both matches.

I don't now why everyone expects an easy 4-0 Nestea. Nestea is amazing at ZvZ, but Losira knows him better than anyone. Same with Nestea knowing Losira. Also there is only three days of prep instead of the usual week to get ready.

Should be an interesting finals. Hopefully we get some games like July/Nestea.


I agree, if it was Nestea against a different team zerg then sure, I'd expect a boring roflstomp, but weird things can happen when team mates play.

Byun's TvT was siiick but terrible TvZ :c

His TvZ isn't bad either lol, in every game losira got so far ahead in the early game byun was playing catch up.

Byun's early game was just bad...idk why but if he can stablize that he would be really sick.

His early game isn't bad though. First game losira went for a huge roach attack while byun was teching, second game byun brought a ton of SCVs for the bunker rush but they ended up all dying and third game bane bust. All the games were basically won 5 minutes in.

What Byun might have done differently in that game, when his fast CC was discovered that early by the scouting drone, he needed to think about the potential bane bust and just made another racks and bunker to wall off. Always expect the worst when you cannot find the zerg's base in time.

Never had any issues with mirror matchups and i actually enjoy ZvZ so im thrilled to watch the GSL finals.

A Nestea vs Losira matchup can only be good and they know each other ins and outs from so many practice hours at the IM house that the matchup should be amongst the most refined and calculated ever.

Only negative side for me is having the bulk of the cash prize going to the IM house, ZeNEX deserved a bit more imo.

Terrans and Protoss better start practicing harder and try to catch up. Clearly, allowing the zerg to drone up too hard (aka no apparent pressure) or doing risky builds that has holes everywhere is not the way to do it.
