Terran: Demuslim & Polt Protoss: Bling and Grubby Zerg: Stephano & Heavenslight are the players you should watch VODs of from this tournament. All of them put on incredable display of skill and very entertaining games.

Best tournament this year so far, liked it even more than HSC4.

Amazing games (both Stephano/Polt series, Polt/violet, Whitera/Sleep, Grubby/violet)
Good crowd
Good casters
Good music/content between games
Good comedy stuff ("kpop band", the two guys armwrestling on stage, Stephano's afro)

Polt + MVP ghost control = Best player on earth?

Mvp doesn't use ghost anymore in late game TvZ because they are shit now (except vs infestors but they are expensive so probably not cost effective enough to build them for that purpose only), see Mvp vs Symbol from Iron Squid.
But I agree, Polt's ghost use in TvP is not the best we have seen he would be really scary in TvP if he had a Byun-like ghost control / usage, I don't think it matters in TvZ though.
I'm both happy that Stephano won another event and sad that Polt lost.
Gimme terran a lategame capable army blizzard if now even Polt loses to Stephano :/

Because I had some bans for balance whining in the past and they thought this time I balance - whined but I was not judging if the ghost nerf should have been or not I just stated that right now the ghost has no real utility in TvZ after the nerf.
So basically a misinterpretation

actually you also got it wrong, MVP still uses ghosts against zerg. He used it in the last GSTL

Didn't he lost this game?
So the main point - ghost being bad now remains, if even Mvp can't make it work against code A zergs as he used to in the past.

MVP was very far behind going into the midgame, and even more so going into the lategame. That was not a game where you could accurately judge the effectiveness of ghosts.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Ya that is not a good game to judge that. It doesn't change the fact that ghosts are pretty bad against everything now except infestors. Terrans need to figure out something that can deal with broodlord/corruptor/infestors. Maybe a mix of ghost/raven/marine/viking? I don't really think its that feasible but maybe.

For me, this tournament had consistently better games (except that series of MC vs JYP, that was sick as fuck as an MC fan), but HSC's environment was far superior.

What an awesome event. I had a great time even if it was exhausting. If there is interest I'm willing to write a bit about my experience at this event. I was one of the admins and it seems like the perspective of an outsider on the inside of an esports event might be interesting.

I also wanted to shout out to HeavonEarth. He was an awesome pro to work with. He was not only a great player but did everything he could to help the event run smoothly. If any organizers are looking for a lesser known pro to invite to events you wouldn't regret picking him.

No time to read through this thread... Did it turn into the usual Stephano haters vs Stephano fans discussion or did the haters finally realise that Stephano is by FAR the best foreigner? (and maybe even Code S material?)

As fare as I know. Stephano doesnt like the GSL format since it take so long so he has turned down any invites to Code S. You have to remember Stephano play for Millinium and im sure there sponsors really want Stephano in as many foreign tournament as possible.

Staying 2-3 months in Korea would mean he would have to miss alot of foreign tournaments. However I have heard he have talked about going to Korea again in April after IPL 4 so maybe he will enter GSL there.

But I do think if GSL wants Stephano they need to get Bling with him also so Stephano dont get lonely
