Wouldn't be too hard on Hyun, he switched over recently. I hope TSL is the right kind of environment for him to work on his skills.

Yes, the fact that he was able to qualify for Code A after I believe only 3 months of SC2 is very incredible. Of course, he is not dominating the scene, but he has only been playing for a few months. I am pretty sure he would stay with TSL, as he is an MBCGameHero player and has a long history with Coach Lee (this relationship was one of the major reason Hyun joined TSL).

A combination of sickness, team pressure and deterioration of strategy.

I would guess he has not completely recovered from his recent illness.

I'm fairly sure this series was played right in the middle of his illness. However, I think he's over it now; would be great to see him qualify for NASL in a few hours' time. He really deserves it (also deserves a new team, but that's aside...)

Isn't IPL known for casting replays though? I think NASL was in that park as well

Hahahahahahahahahaha... wanna bet?

You give me 100 bucks if ST loses, I'll give you 1 if they win. It's actually a generous bet considering your predictions

edit: I am 100% serious here


Sure, I'm completely serious too. My paypal is remark27@gmail.com

The replays are usually not more than a week old, so they were probably still played when Polt was sick.

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?

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?)


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.


May I just say I got both right. Virus lost, the unknown zerg they played next won... stats win out in everything.

Good for you. In the end though, the coach makes the decisions, and will continue to make the decisions, not the community, though statistics obviously also factors into the coach's decision as well.

Do they though? The tsl coach's player choices were very very questionable and definitely went counter to what stats would indicate.
