It should not needed to have been said, but don't post or request for restreams.

Also, don't come in here exclusively to whine about PPV.

I agree. But also, how did MVP's push get stomped so hard? The observer didn't catch it so I guess we won't find out until an interview/replay.

I did like Ret's decision to stop making mutas and go for infestors with fast hive.

That's what happens when you leave your army on creep.

Koreans will be pretty tired tomorrow though if they can't sleep tonight.


dont you think they have been up for long long times? doesnt really matter what time it is in Korea now.

Have you never been on a long flight like that? It has nothing to do with what time it is where you come from... He was yawning non stop before the games, and it was very clear in the last game, that he just wanted it to be over with, and his concentration wasn't there anymore.. He came on a later flight than all the Koreans because of the semi finals, the rest came a day or two ago..

whether Ret is a beast or not doesn't matter , still Mvp is struggling tvz like the guy said. He even said in an interview he doesn't know how to beat it lately.

To be honest that game 3 looked exactly like all my ladder TvZ's

i remember a time when MVP was patient and waited for ALL the creep to retreat before he pushed . It looks like he has declined in the matchup.

Can you guys be more specific about the build? Attack at 70 food isn't helpful.

So did he 1 gate FE? Was the core placed before or after the Nexus? How many gates did he add after that? Did he cut probes? What was his composition when he attacked, and what kind of attack did he do?


I wasn't watching intently as I didnt realise it was the same build. Basically MC attacked with 4 sentries, 3 stalkers and 3 zealots. Killed the bunker that was being built, forcefielded really well and used Guardian shield to wreck everything at the nat pre stim. Then when scvs were pulled he darted into the main base up the ramp and picked off a couple more units coming out of the barracks.

He went with a 1 gate FE and just added more gateways attacked before 8 minutes.

Its important to note he killed about 6 marines at the nat when stc tried to walk down the ramp with some marines to take the natural expansion.



Do not blindly recomend that build to protoss players. You need to have great micro to back you up with a build like this.

An educated guess would be that hes never actually experienced jet lag or changing time zones from traveling across the world.

DRG's last loss wasn't really attributed to anything other than the fact Parting was super sneaky and DRG left the most common blind spot inbetween the main and natural like most zergs.

hey if you are pro at starcraft, there is no excuse for lack of sleep.
prepping good condition to play on foreign tourney is part of being an international hot shot imo.

You're right, if he was truly a good player he would've won the GSL semis before they even happened and gone on an earlier flight.

Let's not be a tool TT1.
I haven't once discredited his accomplishment.
I've merely replying to the quote that HuK does not have an easy path to the semis and given that MVP has a high name-value, having his name instead of Ret would seem a lot more intimidating by that sense. And MVP is out of it, as well as Ret played, if you feel this is the same MVP who was crushing in the GSL's and tournaments....thats foolery.

My lack of knowledge? Yes, attacking the poster out of whim. Good job.

Then you realise how ignorant your statement is right? It was a 15hour flight.

Point is alot of people there have jetlag, not only the koreans.. And nestea himself actually arrived a couple of days early so he wouldn't be too jetlagged.. He said that himself in an interview..

I laugh when I think about Idra's interview at the begining where he stated that Demuslim had essentially already lost. Maybe if he got the same attitude as some of the other progamers he would be more successful and pull off these upsets.

I'd throw Thorzain's name in there too for the list of foreigners.
He did get knocked out but it was by Leenock and all of his games were quite entertaining to say the least.

Korean wise; has to be MC/MKP/DRG, just beast.
