Spot on. No need to try and shift any metagame, just either put down ur weapons and leave, or blindly go nexus first every single time. Yep.

Or delay the push and win. Oh hey!

After blindly going nexus first. Wtf.

That wouldn't have worked if he didn't have an expo up for ages. Have you never played Protoss or something?

kinda sad tsl_killer didn't beat select. i feel like he's the better player and didn't need to gamble like that.

seems like koreans are actually struggling. mc got through game 3 but not largely to amazing play but more on his opponent's failures...

I don't. Day9 has really dropped really low lately and I can barely stand listening to him. Quite a huge change from favorite caster to barely listenable...

so true! he always hypes stuff artificially. especially if a TL player is involved. it was just embarassing how he hyped huks play vs moon in the dreamhack finals...

When did the Koreans arrive? They seem to consistently do worse than usual on day1 of tournaments. Do they come in late and jetlagged?

Probably, during the MC game he was noticeably yawning on the camera.

I´ll stop the 1-1-1 discussion with this post. All I wanted to say was that we have seen so many builds/aggressions/all-ins during the last year that for a while was "unbeatable". MKP´s 2rax was unbeatable, as was the roach all-in. Until someone learned to counter it properly. The 1-1-1 is no difference, thats all im saying.

Now lets enjoy the games.

Someone DID learn to counter it properly. It's just that the counter automatically loses to Select's marine/scv all in.
During practice session, I discovered very good build against zerg. -Bisu[Shield]

Well, we have seen so much of these recently. That really explains a lot about the people complaining, but that doesn't mean they have faced it or have the experience to know what to do.

I mean Sangho played greedy and didn't hope for getting scouted first by SeleCT. It's quite funny that he even went nexus first on metalopolis which is much shorter rush distance and only has two possible spawn locations(no close pos) while the others are big macro maps and had 3 possible spawn locations. It would seem more likely that Sangho would lose to SeleCT on Metalopolis instead of Tal´Darim Altar or Crevasse.

As many people also say Nexus first is great way of stopping 1/1/1, but you can also stop it with 1 gate + fe or even one base play, what I've seen from a korean gm player.

Gawd, trying to use this thread as an actual LR is pointless :/ Refresh, then scroll through the rubbish to find anything actually pertaining to the game being played or the tournament. Give the balance whine a rest, it's the same things being posted from all the GSL LR threads for the past 2 weeks. Take a deep breath, sit back and enjoy the fact you can watch the games, and let people who can't get some benefit out of the LR!!!

I have to agree. His pronunciation is OP.

Also has nice polite voice, opposite of his metal style

Oh damn that's rough. I'd probably be forgetting my first pylon and stuff in that condition ^_^
