You have no idea if the build was good or not. You didn't get to see how it actually plays out because both games Axslav made major mistakes and let Elfi get up the ramp when he could of held.

edit; Yes, it should be

Axslav could have held that with better basic control. There was no reason to send his stalker/zealot/sentry at the start down his ramp. Then after holding with probes, not re-FFing the ramp to deny vision was pretty hard to watch.

Do all 4 Koreans place first? At least 1 European managed to make it through.

Elfi won his group and so there will be one Korean Teamkill in the quarterfinals.

officially the worst tournament for the euros since the release lol
but wont happen again

Thats because all the euro's that went except for Mana are 2nd tier pros.


Same can be said for the NA pros. Sad fact is that when it comes to top-tier players, EU and NA both only have 4-5 players to offer. Some of them are in Korea, some of them are at MLG, others didn't want to show up to either tourney.

It's just the way it is.



NA has:

Idra, Huk, Sheth. (no, Select is Korean and no, Kiwikaki is 2nd tier just like Mana)


That's 3.


I'm not saying (even if I think it, but it's another argument) that EU>NA in skill, but just in mere numbers, EU simply has more top tier players.

If you watched IPL interviews, that's the exact same thing Machine and Sheth said, that NA needs more players.

This build can hold four-gate if you micro correctly. The problem is he didnt micro correctly. Basically you keep pumping out sentries and forcefielding

What makes Axslav good? Honest question, I don't know much about his play. Because I know that he's not fast, he doesn't seem to have very smart/good builds, and his micro is not spectacular. Is he just solid all around, good game sense, things like that?

Watching this guy trying to defend a 4-gate and just keep making probes was so depressing. I was like "hey dummie, forget economy, you need units or you're going to die!" you know, he did have a stargate...

they're doing some sort of goofy bracket-filling technique. Not yet sure what the quarterfinals will be.
