That in combination of Genius losing a grip of phoenixes flying over hydras and not scouting the incoming overlords even though he had mass phoenixes. Also, not having the carriers in position to defend the third hurt him really badly as well. | ||

I truely dislike Crossfire though and imo it needs to go. Protoss can never ever secure a third base so as long as Zerg builds a ton of spinecrawlers he can never ever lose. Remember the final battle of the game? A few stalkers cramped up behind the mineral line of DRGs third while he attacked with his left-over mutas. I don't like that this map forces weird scenarios like that and it's just a bad map in general. Please remove it, gom! Only thing I didn't like about the finals, everything else was great! | ||

As in John said KeSPA was terrible and evil and money grubbing and didn't allow expansion of esports outside of Korea due to blackmail and threatened lawsuits. And you trust John to give a perfectly objective view of KeSPA when he works for a company that was basically shit on by them? KeSPA does stupid stuff like all corporations (including GOM! gasp), but you cannot deny the boundaries BW pushed, and KeSPA was a part of that. | ||

Right, because what we expect from the best players in the world (particularly those named Genius) is to not innovate, and never figure out new ways to use units unexpectedly. And when these best players in the world do happen to find these very surprising strategies, we expect them to use them in on the Ladder or something to make sure they're given away before they really count. Perfect logic. | ||
