Ok so Protoss can't win against Terran or Zerg. Only MMA and MvP can beat Nestea, but the rest of the zergs, besides Dongraegu and Losira who can beat some Terrans, can't beat Terran.

What a hell of a puzzle.

JYP showed some great play, and its truely sad to see that he still goes down to code A. The weakness of Protoss atm was summarised pretty well by this turn of events...


Yup but that is why im so looking forward to patch 1.4.
People really underestimate the importance of a small change like 1 range increase for immortals and sentry guardian shield removing the damage of tanks.
Let say the immortal jyp used to backstab had 1 extra range today. It would have attacked earlier while the tanks were still unsieging, getting 2 or more extra shots. This will cascade down to less damage and the immortal would have taken down all the tanks by itself.
The guardian shield damage is no joke too. 40% off right? So if a tank shot hits 5 zealots, thats a LOT less damage compared to 3 - 4 tanks 1 hitting 5 zealots right off from the start.


where on earth did you get 40% from


I think he got a hold on the information that Guardian Shield reduces the damage from 0 attack marines by 40 percent, and then applied it to everything else.


Oh nah i'm not really sure of the 40% thing. How much damage does guardian shield prevent if the bug is fixed?


Guardian shield reduces 2 dmg from ranged attacks if I'm not wrong. And as a person stated earlier theres a bug that prevented it reducing dmg from tanks and colossi. So tanks do 33 to zealots and 48 dmg to stalkers which is pretty irrelevant lol.

I am truly regretful for not being able to watch up/downs anymore due to work schedule. Just by looking at results I can tell that today's games were nothing but epic, with MKP jumping off the surface of the water.

Well i am glad Taeja and MKP made it. But damn, next GSL will be so painful to watch for me. I am already tired of TvT but there will be even more. T_T
At least HuK is still there fighting for Aiur.

I think the problem with protoss is that its the most fragile race right now. Contrary to terrans or zergs a protoss can lose a game by just one inattention. So bad forcefields or something like that ends the game immediately. But this problem cant be fixed in patch so I think we have to wait until HotS comes out and new units will be introduced to balance this...

so, with the final up and down results, this makes twenty terran in the code S tourney?

Tastosis better be working on some good material, because, even for a Starcraft tourney geek like me, even I'm going to get sick of TvT this October.

Very very surprised Trickster beat MKP and Taeja. Too bad he got screwed by JYP beat Trickster twice in PvP. So close to having another Protoss in Code S. ><"

If you like watching games similar to these in gsl open season 1, you will like it, otherwise not.

Pretty stupid how many people are whining about tvts. Whatever said and done, the players that deserved to win have got their spots. Regardless of race, you should see the player for how he plays.

Glad to see MKP back.

This + only harass P has is Phoenix, DT and Warp prism, neither are very good and there is no way to kill workers as fast zerglings, marines, banelings, bf hellions. 1 base terran is also so much stronger than P.

P macro mechanic is weaker than both Zerg(Inject) and Mules. Chrono is good but I think PvZ is incredibly hard to macro vs Z and TvP is so favoured early game for T and while being slightly stronger straight up mid and lategame for P while T has so much more mobility while Toss is basically like a meching Terran. Fungal is also incredibly strong vs P as you need balling and mobility to fight vs Roaches.


Sad times for P with no clear direction.

Moletrap and Wolf were raving about the storm drops when they did almost no damage, 5 drones for 5 storms over the course of 5 minutes is not effective. They were effective in BW cause the drones were slower and had shittier pathfinding. Here you're lucky to kill 2-3

That'll teach them to put players in the rightful spot!

This isn't Gom's fault, not in the least. Unless they change the format to something that would put the same amount of players per race in the bracket.

Which MIGHT help, but it could, let's say, stop a better player from being able to participate.
I believe you have my stapler.

Well - that went as expected! 20 Terrans in Code S. Tester falls, and JYP plays some fun games but doesn't make it. Congrats Terrans!

His reasoning was that a lack of viewership would translate to a response from Blizzard eventually to balance the races out a bit more aggressively. The logic is not entirely flawed because Blizzard has a pro bono relationship with GSL.

Feel happy for Taeja (who I think is gonna be a top Terran) and MKP even if that means Terran dominance. SO SAD for JYP
