Umm...it was absolutely a comeback. It started with those nexus snipes... Think about the game before that point. ToD with two mining bases and a 50 supply lead while Boxer was still trying to get his 4th (and only mining base) up. | ||

The situation we witnessed was pretty much Tod just failing to properly defend his expansions when it should had been obvious that was what boxer was going for and losing his entire economy for little to no reason. | ||

It will also be streamed again at 7pst for more American friendly hours. I wish they would announce a further stream schedule, such as when other groups will be played. | ||

On a different topic, please fix the fps recording of the stream, it looks quite choppy. Overall quality and production value are really good though, nice to see a successful french tournament. | ||

(Multiple drops everywhere, microing his ass off, hitting perfect engagements) The situation we witnessed was pretty much Tod just failing to properly defend his expansions when it should had been obvious that was what boxer was going for and losing his entire economy for little to no reason. Just because ToD could have prevented it doesn't mean it wasn't a comeback. Every comeback, even in the examples you cited, is preventable. The point is that the player in the disadvantaged position took advantage of some weakness of his opponent. If there is no weakness then there can't be a comeback. | ||

I'm biased, I wanted Tod to go through. Well done by Boxer. | ||

Tod gained a significant lead when he attacked the natural, and an even bigger lead when he crushed the counter attack. But that drop that took out 2 bases and cancelled another destroyed Tod's economy for minimal loss, and Tod had a poor engagement. Tod could have played better, but it was amazing to see Boxer come back from such a large deficit. | ||

It's offline while pomf and thus started the third game of ret/puma 0o TB/appolo shows Ret vs puma at start, while P/T shows Tod/Boxer first. Strange but it seems that the next time, same games will be casted at the same time (according to LeLfe) | ||

But according to Liquipedia only Ret vs Puma and Boxer vs Tod have been played. Edit: Ah it's only two or three matches per show. | ||
