Glad to see he's still competitive even though he doesnt seem to play in that many events. I cant remember seeing him since Blizzcon besides his subpar performance at WCG By subpar performance at WCG you mean getting 3rd place where first and 2nd place are MVP and Nestea? Yeah, SEn was simply aweful... By subpar performance he means knocked out in the group stages against not so good opponents I guess. Third place was Kas.

Xigua almost won even if maps were favoured killer but Macsed and Morrow lost so ugly, epecially morrow lost to Code-B material.Sen couldn't go further either ,i believe so.

eh yeah, that was kinda my point :p

So, since you say research you indicate that you have aditional information. Would you please educate the masses perhaps?

Xigua pretty much had game 3 in the bag IMO, then a series of absolutely horrid decisions/engagement pretty much handed Killer the game, and even then Killer almost lost by not defending his pylons properly. Just a really bad game overall.

That's more superstition than anything really. There's no such thing as kryptonites in real life. MMA is a higher level player now, both skillwise and mentally, he won't be mindfucked as easily.

They played at the Blizzard Cup and went 1-1.
Polt isn't bad or anything. The games today were not skill-based at all. Creator just came in with an awesome game plan. Polt fast expanded game one, Creator hit a perfect timing with his zealot/stalkers before Polt could get a bunker up and the game was already over. Game two was an immortal bust on Crossfire that Polt held, so 1-1. Third game was Polt turtling, thinking that Creator, who early rushed two games in a row would do it again, but Creator opted to do an even crazier early third that would have been death if Polt scouted.
Creator's an awesome player, but today's games were won by the metagame.

They literally played a month and a half ago in the Blizzard Cup. Evenly matched.

To take the focus of yet another pathetic foreigner performance - I can't believe so many of the star players are down in code B :S
Polt, LosriA, Bomber, Clide!!
It's unbelievable! I dunno what happened to all these players!

well, once the hellions are in there is not terribly much you can do to avoid alot of drone kills.. and it wasnt 4, it was 8. He didnt kill 26 in one go.
He fucked up the block, terrible but it happens and as they said on the stream.. not many terrans try that since they asume its blocked and they will then have sacrificed 4 hellions for nothing.. In retrospect maru did the right thing but in general I would say it is not the right thing to do. Morrow fucked up, maru gambled, it worked out. Had it failed he would have been waaaay behind... If you have ever played reactor hellion expand and lost your 4 hellions you know how terrible it feels.. Its a build that is completly dependand on mapcontrol and with no hellions you have absolutely none.
and reactor hellion is not all in at all... in fact, its often a very economic build as alot of terrans follow it up with an inbase CC aswell as their natural.

Some success against foreigners for a very short time when the game was new doesnt really mean much these days he is much better with zerg now than he ever was with terran and his TvZ is his worst matchup.
