If it wasn't for DRG, Thorzain V Hero would be the finals of this truly imo. After seeing their brilliant play on Hero's side, and extremely consistent play from Thorzain with little to no mistakes, i think naniwa, lucifron, and rain would easily fall to either of these two. DRG would beat Thorzain imo, but him and hero would be a match to see.

Naniwa's mindset has really shifted. He used to display confidence when everyone was sad how weak things were. He was always critical with himself and not really overly whining about balance. Seems the korean visit has really changed him, and not for the better.

Hmm I feel like I'm missing something here.. has he said anything else recently besides jokingly commenting in game right now? Some interview or something?


There's an interview in the TL preview for this event. Really whiny and just saddening interview.

I found it.. I mean yeah there are some pretty general balance complaints about the way protoss are doing in korea but also stuff like:



Right now I feel like there is no point to go back, I can see myself staying here for several years, Code S is my eventual goal to reach, and then from there Champion. But I will take it one step at a time. But I plan to stay here as long as i have to to reach my dream.


... I am planning to stay here a long time so I will start learning Korean asap...


I never predict how I'm going to do but, if I'm on my best form then I should have a decent shot against anyone.


I want to thank all fans who are supporting me even though I have been doing poorly lately, but it's just a natural step for me right now. I will be showing better results in the future for sure since I am developing as a player right now and just need more time.


etc etc.. and let's be honest, protoss are doing pretty terrible in korea atm.

when your best chance to win a game vs terran is an allin, you are actually bad.
i liked rains play, the noobs say it was boring, i say it was very safe and solid. that is in my opinions the hardest style to play

Poor DongRaeGu, getting up against LucifroN in the first round.
I hope for him someone told him about LucifroN otherwise he will get crushed :S
gogo LucifroN I like both players but so many people count him out already that I want him to win more


I just.. what? Poor DRG? Against a Terran? A foreign Terran?

This is going to be a faceroll.

Yeah winning is pretty boring...


I'll be honest, Korean Terrans winning is pretty boring because if it's a Korean Terran vs. xForeigner (or even Korean non-Terran), the Korean Terran is expected to win. If you disagree, fair enough, but I hope some nerds know exactly what I mean.

Haha naniwa, tries an 1 base all-in, fails, asks for buff.
He did not lost because he played protoss, he lost because rain played better.


so u are telling that the only race that should be in good shape even if the all in fail is Terran?
and that was not a all in, was 3gate blink wtf

Didn't want to get involved in this balance bullshit, but as a Protoss player, I need to clarify for you:

Going 3gate blink, putting on about constant pressure for a legitimately long period of time, following up with a Dark Shrine- still on one base after his attack failed- is in fact an all in.

To those of you who don't understand how his attack failed, he did not kill the OC, which is a requirement for him to remain even. In spite of killing 18~ SCVs, he is only producing probes on one nexus VS two CCs producing SCVs and Mules.

Risky play, did not work. Let's leave judging why he did it until the obligatory post tournament "the community is going crazy, why did you X? interviews"


yeah but the fact is terran can go all in and if it fail nothing happens, Terran have a ez time defending... all ins, this kind of risky attack should be a lot harder to hold but Marauders+bunkers+mules make that imposible to archive.

in fact i doubt Hero will win vs Thorzain sigh...
if play random i can't call any race imba?
