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.

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.

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

Brood Lords = Auto win Ultralisk = Auto loss
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.

Brood Lords = Auto win Ultralisk = Auto loss 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
|
Ugh, Shattered. A great series would have deserved a better map for the final game.
|
terran is the hardest race to play but strong. thats why t sucks outside korea, anyways gl nerchio on the last game :D

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

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 ?

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.

Man it must suck to not understand this game at all and see things in only black or white.

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.

Taunting is one thing, but bashing or swearing just really shouldn't be tolerated.
