Yeah I think asd is a victim of terran dominance in Code S, people just see him as "another terran" but he's actually really impressive to me in all matchups.
Good player!

Infact he made it to the knockouts aswell. He is easily a code S terran, Hero got completely conned both games. The fact that he had to rely on tricking him is the sad part, but still major props. Id be happy if I could fool my opponent every game.

Dont be sad, you have lots of fan favourite players like Leenock and Oz. We're allowed to pick only one of your roster and hate for a day or two because he took down our HerO! =D

I'll be honest with you. If he changes his ID back to Nuclear, I'll consider being a fan. asd has got to be the worse ID ever.

Its the eternal struggle of protoss... builds that counter 1-1-1 are bad against everything else, so 1-1-1 maps are a coinflip if only toss had a unit that can scout the opponent early on and even scout when they move out. Blizzard needs to make this units. And name it.....the observer. o wait.... You're right Protoss should just always open robo and become entirely predictable :/
if u see a gas and a bunker then fucking scout. idc if u have to give an arm and a leg. U make that observer and u fucking scout and counter whatever your opponent does like a good player

Phoenixes are sooooooo dumb for TvP . Why Hero, WHY?! Because of the possibility of 1/1/1 on that map. Asd meta-game'd Hero hard on those 2 last games. Sad because i feel HerO is more than twice better than asd, but clever/tricky play carried asd. =_( Yeah, that is what people commonly refer to as "beatiful decision making" - a nice way to speak about build order wins...
You mean Hero going phoenix PvT because terran built a gas?

Monster v Curious game 1 LR.
0.00
MVPMonster is spawning as the red zerg in the top left corner.
StarTale_Curious is spawning as the blue zerg in the bottom right corner.
4.00
Monster goes gas and pool first. Curious gets a hatch first, into gas and pool.
Monster also gets two pairs of zerglings and starts the Metabolic Boost upgrade immediately. Baneling nest planted down. Keeps producing zerglings, no drones.

He's still Code S as far as I'm concerned =p
Feels silly to stop calling someone Code S if they got knocked down but are still active in the seasons race to make it back in.

anyway, time to get my Curious on.

asd is really not a pushover, especially vP.
With the patches, all the players that were only winning vP because it was "easy" (like Ryung xD) now lose in it, but asd was not one of those players. He has a really solid vP, like Keen. I hope Hero will do well, which he seems to do recently. His vT was a weakness, but I feel it's not true anymore (victory over Thorzain or Puma who were always destroying him before).
By the way Seeker, you're linking to international TLPD. Hero is 2-8 in Korean TLPD, but his stats are like Oz one, skewed because of previous random appearances in GSTL while he was still a nobody and he sucked.

I have a feeling that HerO's pretty tired at the moment... His scouting and some of his builds have seemed a bit off. Maybe just a bad day?

Why, Isn't GSL more catchy?

I forgot about that, Phoenixes did work really well against Puma

But you have money on it, so you do research  Which is how you make money!

It's the way things have always been.
You had A class players then you had S class players.
Plus it sounds awesome.
