I think you're wrong. I think he's better than you are giving him credit. He was drawing eyes long before won his first GSL. I think you will see much more of him.
Caster duos should compliment each others' strengths. "You look very handsome today, Tasteless."

Such poor scouting by Jjakji. If he was so scared of burrowed infesters that scanning the main was not worth it, perhaps he could have got a raven. When you secure an economical advantage vs Zerg, you prepare for broodlords because ultras are the worst comeback Zerg unit in the game.

Seriously though, I see nerchio working much harder than jjakji in thees games. I would like to see the apm-overview.

One thing that I really like about Korean tournaments as opposed to foreigner tournaments is the fact that the Koreans are strict about any sort of bad mannerisms as opposed to tournaments like IPL or MLG. The fact that IdrA doesn't get in any sort of trouble after saying "Fuck you" in a broadcasted major tournament or NaNiwa getting away with calling MLG a "joke tournament" on the main stage is an embarrassment. Tournaments really need to prove that they are in control of their players by punishing them for BMing.


I agree with you about those 2 incidents. They should have got punish but I also dont want the players to turn into polite robots. One of the best hype moments for me last yea was when MC and Idra when at it at MLG.

Thats what I want to see but you defiantly right there has to be a balance

btw amasing serie

What a bad comment. Yes broodlords are usually better than ultras, but ultras still have a role. Also ultras don't ALWAYS lose, and broods don't ALWAYS win. I think one of the reasons we see broods winning more often (besides being better imo) is that they are often used when a zerg is macroing up, while ultras are often used when they have to remax quickly to defend, and are therefore already behind.

Cross-server or not, I don't think any other foreign zerg bar Stephano could have made it the series vs Jjakji look so close. Eight games have been played so far, the score is 4-4, and the cast has been on for over 3 hours now - with only small intermissions in between.

Ultras are only really good in ZvT to solidify your win. I don't think that they should ever be the first Hive tech unit that a Zerg gets, but getting them as a second wave after a Terran over makes Vikings (especially if you can keep your Infestors alive) allows you to decimate a Terran.

Just out of curiosity, has anybody else been really unimpressed by these games? Generally I'm excited going into an ace match, but with the way these two have been playing and the map (Shattered Temple) I just cannot be excited about this...

Well u guys have to understand those zergs who says "Ultras suck" when they see on stream their favourite players always losing with these units and mostly winning with broods... Ultras in general dont seem "strong" there is no this WOW factor which u see when 8 broods pop up

I absolutely love now jjakji is purposely forcing this series to the last game for the fans. He could have won 5-0 but he chose not to. <3 So caring for the fans.


Seriously don't start shit like this. Koreans are not unbeatable and certainly not perfect so stop acting like a korean vs foreigner is an instant all kill for a korean because that's not true.


Why are you putting words in my mouth. Did I ever say or imply that Koreans auto win against foreigners. No I did not. HuK was winning in GSL and NaNiwa beat both NesTea and Mvp. Not once did I state that Koreans destroy foreigners always. You're the one starting shit.

On topic: jjakji should win this one since it seems to be a pattern. Also jjakji is good at TvZ

Nerchio is playing incredibly, but you can tell the lag is there. The corrupter near the end pretty much told the tale. Jjackji is smart enough to know not to focus broodlings. Not trying to take too much away from Nerchio though, he's still playing very well.


Sigh, You dont think Nerchio got huge lag also or do you think Poland to US is lagless?

i understand ur bitterness

I really don't, terran being the 1a race vs zerg, seriously?Play TvZ for 5 games and your opinion will change.
How can someone see Nerchio winning with blord corruptor every ZvT that he manages to win and call Jakjji the 1a player, it's so baffling that I can't help but laugh, the blords just sit there and everything dies, jesus.

im being sarcastic
by looking at my sig u shud know im also a terran player

it's funny because Polt is in Code A ro48 right now and seeing him in a final again would be quite surprising but not a shock. There are only a few players which are really better than him.
Zest fanboy.

Yeah, not the best map, but it could always be worse. It could be close spawns or Steppes of War.

Your bias is disgusting, nerchio showed so far retardedly easy to do ling run bys, burrowed infestors with their inherently micro restricting fungal growth (maesltrom+stomr) and the most naturally 1a composition in the game after chargealots, zerg air, bitch please.
I like the part where sense is considered a common, settled thing.

I think that there is a real difference between what happened there between MC and IdrA (that classic (T)firebathero-esque celebration), but I think that there is a line between what is appropriate and what is not and I don't think that it is that difficult for the players or the organization to really define. Taunting is one thing, but bashing or swearing just really shouldn't be tolerated.
