No, MacSed let him use that account in Korea.
Anyway, I expect Select to win this with his Korean training, but the Chinese can be really surprising.
Like SeleCT, but WC3 player + Chinese outmatches his awesome.
Gogo MacSed!

If SeleCT plays like he did in the IPL team league this could easily be 4-0 or 4-1. He has always had impeccable TvP and with his training in Korea he has improved across the board.

select is pretty damn good tvp. i don't really know much about macsed's sc2 play besides the fact that he is chinese and got beat by mvp in WCG. will be cool to see :D

ohiderrr !!!
And ya, I figured people might be interested in seeing some Chinese gamers since we don't really see much of them. You can expect to see more in future weeks as well (not gonna spoil any names atm)
it's really sad but select is just completely outclassing macsed omg, I really feel he should have just chrono'd 3/3 and gone for it, no reason for him to be sitting at 150 supply getting blink/charge/storm b4 ups =(
I dno i really didn't think Macseed would be... bad..? He's sitting at 12 gateways when he's not even using them.. He floated above 2k minerals when not even maxed out. Very weak play from him and i don't know why..
eww those ffs were horrible for macsed, interesting decision to doom drop to finish the engage from select, I like that he kept up the viking count though ^^

Yup, afaik he's still living in Korea, well, it's getting late and I doubt even divine intervention can same macsed from the beast that is SeleCT, so I'm gonna say grats now and peace out, kinda disappointing series but who can blame him for stomping nerds

Well ForGG had his 2rax stomped by JYP, but he still won in the end by playing standard

That was such cool micro. Dances out of the forcefields, snipes the sentries and stalkers, ignores the zealots completely, picks up and leaves. Select so boss mode.

Why would he be? EZest $100 for him. Not everyone at his level can play showmatches.
But getting beaten the crap out of like that? And knowing that he'll have to play a Code S level Terran in Keen very soon? That's gotta be a confidence killer

And Select, holy crap, he has improved so much.
It got up to 10k too. I don't know how viewership was for EG vs. Liquid because I was watching the Super Bowl, but I imagine it will be very high for the restream tomorrow.
Pretty pleased about all the matches since it's our offseason content... glad that people are tuning in, enjoying the 1080, and (hopefully) enjoying the games!!
I know Macsed seemed like a few levels below SeleCT, but the Chinese gamers overall are still catching up. I really wanted to try to help get them involved more in the foreign community, since they don't get a lot of attention. Macsed showed some strong potential, he just seems a step off... but given more time I think Chinese players can be very, very good!
Macsed got thrashed. A pretty poor showing from a member of the the small Chinese SC2 pro community. :/ His micro was just really bad. I wanted him to win some, but he just didn't, even when he was ahead. Good luck to him vs. Keen. He's going to need it.
i didn't want to spoil it, but a few days before this match nasl uploaded the vod of game 5 to their youtube channel, inadvertently spoiling it. maybe look into better controlling such slips? that said, loving grubby!
