EPTedit:
you can definitely see the experience gap between the two players, but ToD is definitely holding his own

Edit: Not taking anything away from Keen. Though with such a huge upgrade advantage and that army, to allow both nexus's to go down, even 1 nexus, was fail. | ||

Agreed, towards the end ToD started to falter and went tilt. He shouldn't of been chasing down armies and he was constantly trapping his chargelots behind his stalkers. I can see him losing the 3rd base as acceptable, but the loss of the second was just very good execution by keen and an oversight by ToD. edit: However, this shouldn't take away from ToD overall... it was just a player hitting tilt. I expect to see results from him in the future. | ||

As much as people say it isn't the case, results show that the only people beating Koreans are other Koreans. Naniwa showed promise and has completely failed to deliver. Idra was once the great foreigner hope and had a really good run in GSL, but has failed to deliver. Huk has taken out Koreans in foreign tournaments, but where it counts, he has failed to deliver. Until we start getting foreigners to qualify for GSL (so far every single foreigner since the Code A/S format has been a seed) I can't understand how anyone can honestly believe that foreigners are on the same level as Koreans. | ||

I understand this is just 1 tournament with a set format, but if foreigners are in Korea, then the point is GSL.

ToD can beat any korean terran except the top TvP (MKP, Polt, JjakjiL etc). | ||
