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.

...so how wasnt his early game bad?

Two of them were build order losses -.- What do you propose to him, mr. bonjwa?


Don't do builds that auto lose to certain builds? wtf :O

If you never cut corners or take risks you will just be predictable and lose either way.


I don't think this is true at all and i dont think they the games were really build order losses. His builds just werent very refined and he wasn't prepared for anything out of the ordinary

LOL at the people who think a zvz final is awesome. You guys have terrible taste. ZvZ was the worst matchup in broodwar and it might be the worst matchup in SC2.

I think this finals is the true definition of coinflips. They practice together, they're by many considered the best zergs in the world, it's ZvZ, they have amazing ZvZ stats. I have no idea how to do my Liquibets for this one. Might be the first time I actually flip a coin.

This will not be the worst finals ever. The finals have always sucked because people like hongun manage to get there on one side of the bracket against some monster like Nestea. In this case, you have the best zerg vs one of the best zergs in a matchup they are amazing in. zvz is only a bad matchup for the first, like, 8 minutes. A macro zvz is very fun to watch. I expect good games, and one of the better finals.

He could have sent a second SCV to scout. Not entirely sure how he might have prevented a baneling bust after that, but still, I think an SCV loitering in your base my be a serious deterrant to even going for an early baneling nest.

Still if you go for a risky build, you have to prepare yourself for counters and Byun just didn't.

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.


Lol, Byun was constantly dropping when he could and any significant pressure that protoss puts on is an all-in, or is deflected by sporecrawlers. Why are you acting like zergs somehow practice harder than all terrans and protoss? They just discovered the timings of any effective push finally, the most effective ones got nerfed, and now zergs know exactly when to drone to get a big lead, exactly like what happened in Nestea v Hongun. If all the best BW players came to SC2, the zerg players would be unstoppable just like Nestea seems.

There are just too many game design flaws. Not even a balance whine, hopefully the design team noticed a lot of stupid things going on in the game that can be easily improved. Too often if you do one thing wrong you immediately lose, for any race. Two burrowed banelings should not be able to completely change a game but it happens all the time.

Build order loss? More like his build order isn't well thought out and he did not practice enough to see through all the holes and variations. Though this might not be his fault considering the amount of time he practiced and who he probably practiced with.

Lol I doubt he thought losira would go for the roach all in in game 1. Game 2 was his mistake, bringing all those scvs for basically nothing, so that was his fault. Game 3 he went CC first on a big map on Tal'Darim, but scouted late so he got baneling busted. He tried to vary his builds but got countered in each game.

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.

No it's not. You give a week to prepare you get blowouts. It's no accident GSTL is so much better.


The time between GSL ro4 and finals are shorter than BW leagues and most individual league finals in BW have been great.

Different game. One mistake won't kill you as much.

Not to mention BO1's at beginning at beginning get rid of late starters and adaptive players.

GSL is a terrible format.


Wow your logic is so retarded. People want to see the highest level of games possible. One way is to give ample time for players to prepare builds. Its not GOM's fault that one player cant outplay another when they have the same time to prepare.What would you suggest then? GSL every single day, and a season finishes in 2 weeks?


Not to mention its total bullshit. In TSL players had significant breaks between playing consecutive matches and it gave us some of the most epic matches in SC2

at least this one won't be as one-sided as mvp/mkp or nestea/inca.

The individual skill levels in IM's top brass are amazing. DongRaeGu is the same kind of jewel but he is alone in his team. It will be interesting to see how good Losira's ZvZ is.
