Cannot believe FXO didn't save Oz specifically for Sage. Oz is so good at PvP and Sage is so bad at it, I figured everyone would know this by now and teams would have a PvP counter setup for Sage.

He's pretty solid against Zerg and Terran even though he's not in GSL right now but is like 30% vs P so they figured it was a free win for Oz just to get San out of the way
Yes but you don't need to send out your PvP sniper for San, use someone else. The key is "pretty solid", whereas there is a 50+% chance that Sage will go on an absolute tear against you if you don't throw a PvP at him right away. Whatever you do you gotta save a PvP for Sage or else you deserve to lose.

That's why he said on another map...

Historically, Sage's PvP has been mostly underestimated because of his tendency to go for what is essentially eco-cheese in the current metagame. When he plays standard he's not that bad, e.g. his match against Oz (a very good PvPer) in Code A was quite close.
Granted, it's still his worse matchup and he's not good at it, but people keep marching on how "terrible" it are a bit too harsh and hear-saying in my opinion.

Oh indeed. I read that too quickly.

Looks like NSHoseo once again foiled FXO's plans and got their revenge for the all-kill.
|
Don't know if anyone knows this but about 2 weeks ago 6 of top10 GM spots belonged to NSH players. Looks like they're becoming really good.

wow, Sage coming up huuuge for NSHS these last two rounds. Couple of important wins for Jjakji taking down Oz and Leenock too. NSHS fighting!~

NSHS is really scary in Team Leagues, seems like they all can Team Kill. And they do it.
|
Knew NsHs was going to take this, funny after they win the poll everytime gets closer to 50/50 but before it was like 70-75% in favor for FXO, haha ^^
