You don't respect winning with a strat?


Don't respect when generally people with lower skill level wins with cheesy strats.
HOWEVER, I think Socke played better this bo5 so i guess it was abit different this time.

Might have this opinion because of my zerg play I meet a lot of cheesy strats and all-ins, it all gets too much at some point

DBZ is what I thought he was going for lol

In the books they let their hair grow as long as they are undefeated in battle - it will be cut when they loose a fight. Maybe he meant something else, but thats a perfect fit.

The only game Kas won was with an SCV pulling all-in, don't give Socke shit for all-inning then lol

This bo5 is more the result of bad TvP from Kas, and good PvT from Socke. All games was different and Kas is way behind Socke in this mu.

Socke sounds more excited speaking German. Like a 2/10 instead of 1/10 on excitement scale.

Also, Socke is pretty damn solid. Hes probably more skilled then Kas (based on accomplishments.) Cheese at this level is more of a mind game and a calculated risk so its not he same as ladder cheese.

All-in strategies are a part of this game. Sure, it sucks if your favorite player gets cheesed out of a tournament, but in time we will learn to accept it. There should be a risk involved when you do a greedy opening.

OMG I really think foreigners can take this event.
Too close to call, imo, but I'd love to see a Nerchio upset.
.


I dont know what makes Americans constantly think ( especialy casters ) that Korea > EU ( or all foreigners) .

Nerchio is clearly the second best Europe player right now and i see him be able to take a GSL finals title.

The only issue with him is that he cant accept my superiority over him.

And to the Mana vs Puma series , Mana isnt at a level of Puma if you saw the series from Puma vs Sase then u know where its at dont know why Puma decided to play that odd in those series.

And to my fellow toss underlings outta there stop FFEing Nerchio shows why its absolutely useless and i never played FFE because i knew game maths dno why most toss prefer FFE .

You need to wake up and come back to reality lol =)) Inception time is over

Nerchio was the guy who lost to White-Ra easily 3-1 a week ago. And he's good at online tourney only, not at LAN. Clearly doubt him to make it from code B to A, don't eve mention GSL code S final in here lol


One reason why you think he's good at online tourney is because he hasn't been to them. He's only been playing in online because he's been studying without the possibility to attend lans, and the players he's been beating in the online tournies are top european players.
Bad manners are better than no manners at all.

To be fair it wasn't a very greedy opening

I'm glad Socke won. Everyone seems to underestimate him at the start of every tournament. He's never one of the names you hear for winning it, i guess because he doesn't have that image that others do or statement play. But he's just really fucking solid in nearly everything that he does and quietly makes his way through most tournaments.

In case anyone is wondering. Socke said he all-ined on the last map, because Kas` Expo was so fast and he didn`t want to play from behind.
