I think it's not so much the training regimen as the coaching.. Choya is probably a super good coach who knows how to read his opponents and prepares them well in between games at GSL
Yeah MKP owned Zenio :D. I'm so happy that he did it, especially with mech. He proved again that he is a very solid player even when he does not use his exceptionnal micro skills to help him win the game haha. He should beat BoxeR, given his performance in tvt in the past, it's a bit like young BoxeR (amazing creativity and micro) against BoxeR himself

Man, I remember when fOu was a 1 man team with sC, leenock always struggling in the up and down matches. Now hes owning MVP and will probably take GSL november. lols
Damn, why did boxer and mkp have to be matched up. I want them both in code s. On the other hand I do want mkp back in code s more and he has a better chance against boxer, so I'm still happy cause he could have drawn a tougher opponent. Either way, 1 of them will be back in code s, so it's a win win.

None of the Protoss yesterday deserved to advance.
Hero's first game he didn't get detection early, was punished severely and got way behind. He let an emp hit his four clumped HTs in the first engagement and went down 70 food. Then ASD made the brilliant decision to attack up the ramp on Antiga's third and traded his army for two nexus.
Hero didn't need the base as much as he needed time to get mass ht and colossus and finish upgrading. ASD losing his whole army gave him this time.
In the second game, Hero had too many probes in addition to leaving around 10 stalkers in ASD's base to harass during their main engagement. ASD's army was very small and bulky (maxed thors with a few scv, banshee and marine). Hero engaged this in a choke instead of in the open or near ASD'd base.
If HerO had engaged that army in the middle of belshir where he zealots can surround the thors, while feedbacking, storming and focus firing the thors with immortals that battle would have gone better, he could have even won.
More importantly that would buy him time to remax and utilize his 3 base advantage. Get more zealots, more immortals and allow hts to get back to 75 energy.
Game 3, he went for the phoenix build he uses every PvT I've seen on Dual site. ASD went reactor expo into 3 rax. Hero uncharacteristically lost a couple phoenix very sloppily. He also allowed a few units to get picked aside from the phoenix.
When you're behind from the build you chose there is no room for error. He played well, but playing from behind and making a few small mistakes often times spells a loss against a very good opponent.
Genius vs July was not even close. Genius could not deal with the muta + roach combos july through against him.
