That would be unthinkable.
That series will determine the winner of the whole tournament, and is one of the most important events at blizzcon.

No... just no... That's actually ridiculous. I personally solo cast for 4-7 hours on end for mouz and CSN and it's nowhere near as exhausting as you're making it out to be. Dual-casting is a cake walk when you enjoy the game and know what you're on about.

I don't play zerg so I don't know ZvZ but did anyone catch what Sen did to get ahead like that or was it just more refined macro/mechanics?

Sheth lost 1-2 to KiLLeR in the losers bracket after being knocked down 0-2 by NesTea

sen went hatch first ret went gas pool
Otherwise they mirrored builds, and every unit trade was in sens favour (one good baneling hit on lings) and ret losing lings in sen's base.
therefore sen just had more larva = more drones, assuming no one made any major mistakes.
thanks for the high level analysis, tasteless. "he's just doing it better".
Additionally, all of sen's resources were spent on that +1 timing push, while ret was going lair and double evo, investing in the future.

I'm pretty sure that Tastosis stayed in the US after MLG Orlando, so no jetlag bro. Someone correct me if i'm wrong about that. You got trolled sir. Artosis has been in the US since MLG, he was in a hotel chillin during STOG

Yup, I heard of a casting duo dying because of casting 2 matches in a row, pretty tragic stuff. Tastosis is not Jetlagged. I am pretty sure they have been in the US since sometime last week. I don't think they went back to Korea for 2 days between MLG Orlando and this

runby was totally uncalled for, hge lost about 12 larvae there, poor overlord positioning (unlocked possibility to morph banelings in the middle for sen), blind heavy tech vs no tech roach/bling timing
ret SHOULD test the waters with his banes, he got faster pool so he was in position to attack, yet he didnt that already set him back, clearly not his best mu as he tends to do those mistakes often

The entire wow expansion is adapated from asianic culture, and they showed us the chinese player and are now going to show us the Taiwanese player despite there being incredible matches going on elsewhere.
/conspiracy theory go ladies and gentlemen we have a man who thinks outside of the box, and one who is probably thinking correctly.
Yeah you might be spot on on that, the question is if u gain more in China or you loose more in the western countries because of that ?
