It's not a huge stretch because you think he would be good if he had stayed in Korea, ok then =)


In fact, Sheth is way better than Leenock, if the moon is made of cheese.



Nope not even then.

Have you not seen Leenock eat the cheese ?

I'm with you, man. Did you have Gumiho too? I'm kind of sad from this week, although JYP and F.United performed fairly well.

Used to, traded him sadly.

Dude, no man......Leenock and Sheth are not even comparable. For every 10 zerglings Sheth makes, he throws 5 away...same goes with roaches.

i think it seems that way because sheth has a more aggressive style... which is worse, i'll admit, but i think a lot of the things that make leenock better aren't huge. like his bing landmines actually pull him so far ahead in his zvt games, he's just incredible with how he burrows them.

even though sheth would have to stay in korea a little while i don't think it would take very long for him to pick things up. He's about ret status... and that is pretty effing good

That's kind of a bold statement. I've seen Sheth play exceptionally, on multiple occasions.

1) He's still adjusting to LANs
2) he commentates when he streams

Don't see what's out of place to say Sheth has the potential ("is on the level of") to be top tier.

Well, I think it is perfectly fine to have a zerg favoured map. We don't want Terrans to win everything. GOM should balance the map pool based on how the races are doing.

Yeah too bad there are no Protoss favored maps to help them out .


Well what is a good map for Protoss?

Taldarim is pretty good vs T.

Jinro so smart

If someone can defend 1/1/1 I think it's Puzzle. I mean, it's ridiculous hard strategy to defend against a equall skilled terran, requires so much more from the protoss.

When Puzzle was streaming on TL he basically never slept and was always online and playing, he will be ready for Leenock.

Sorry, I wasn't aware making a statement based in solid factual numbers constitutes whine. The 1-1-1 all-in has over a 90% success rate since the Up/Downs last season. This is a mathematical fact. Claiming that it would be risky to send a Protoss due to the potency of the 1-1-1 all-in is merely an observation made from the mathematical reality of the 1-1-1's success rate thus far.

and hows that related with the games we had today and talk about in this LR thread, go back to bnet forums, seriously hope you get temp banned for this i see you crying everywhere whenever you have occasion

You are a joke.


How is it a joke? It's indeed risky, though the 1-1-1 isn't suitable for all maps so it's not as bad as in a Bo3 IMO. It's been held off once so far since the Up/Downs of last season, giving it over a 90% success rate so far. Sounds like the definition of risky to me.

what player held this off in up/downs and how?!?!


I said "since the Up/Downs". Genius held it off against Thorzain yesterday, though Thorzain messed up the engagement really badly, it still counts as holding it off, I suppose.

It obviously doesn't count. If you botch a build and lose, it's all your fault.

Well, Puzzle is toss, so I give him the disadvantage But this is so even.

i actually disagree. like i said yesterday, it was basically the 1/1/1 push without researching siege xD

Because if you send a Protoss out, even if he wins, the other team is likely to send out a Terran on a TvP favored map. This is TEAM league, so planning out the potential player list is also important.

Leenock is so cute and cuddly. A 9 on the cuteneness scale. Must be cool being gosu at Starcraft 2 at the age of 16. I want to hug him and dress him in outfits.

Well, if that does happen today, we can see one of new Protoss blood and see how he handles it. Maybe after he gets killed, people may start to realise the problem
