No 3rd All-kill: Zenex against Reign, FXO against NSHoseo, this would be the 3rd AK if Ace wins

Besides the fact that all the TSL players except Polt are average, another weakness for TSL is that they're too zerg heavy. At this point Ace has beaten 3 zergs, but here TSL is sending out yet another zerg because they don't really have a choice. If the GSL is any indication zergs at the top aren't doing so well right now so that only makes TSL's situation even worse.

Did you see that probe micro by Ace where he held position with the 2 probes at the choke of the gas/minerals while using the small ranged attack with the probes from behind so the lings just ran around stupid while taking damage? That was AWESOME!

Sick burrow roach use.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Do the coaches not look at player statistics? Virus is far and away best vs toss, so why would you throw him against a zerg? Whereas symbol is the worst against zerg. Why not use curious who is really really good vs zerg? Or july who is decent against zerg?

Tsl's player choices leading up to this point were also quite terrible statistics-wise. Ace is worst against protoss and tsl didn't throw any toss at him (they don't have great toss, but in terms of stats, ace is terrible against toss, why not try it?)

I agreed with what you said until you said July is decent at ZvZ. ZvZ is the bane of his existence. Having said that, I think curious was the right option to send out.

It might depend on simply who is available from Startale. Either way, Startale is so far ahead right now that they can afford to send out anyone.

ROFL? Coaches know their players better than we do. You can't judge a player simply based on match statistics. Maybe Virus is really good vs Zerg in practice? Maybe he's improved his TvZ greatly, but hasn't had a chance to showcase it? Official matches aren't everything. Or maybe Virus wanted to play, maybe the coach wanted Virus to try his luck against a rising Zerg player. A lot of things go into roster choices.

DAT FUNGLE! I normally don't get too excited about fungles but THAT on the marines was fantastic. Good for him for knowing the map (and fungle range) that well.

Great little engagement.

Oops you're right... July has a 33% win rate v zerg in korea. Surprisingly internationally he has a 61% win rate and it's his 2nd highest.

Or he's losing and statistics would say that was the most likely outcome.
