Would have loved if Grubby went for a Blink allin to punish CC first like Mana is doing from time to time successfully. Was an insanely strong 2 base push by Luci - would be interesting to know if he was able to transition out of it or just plain allin. The replay should tell. his third cc was almost done when the game ended | ||

It seemed pretty allinish since he scanned double forge and yet he didn't go for upgrades of his own. If the push failed he would be against a 3-3 toss army. | ||

All I saw was that a short while after Lucifron placed his third base where Grubby had a proxy pylon, it disappeared and was changed into a small green dot on the minimap, probably a zealot. That was around the time Luci had just killed Grubbys third. | ||

Yeah it was a all-in basically, if Luci would have lost that battle he would have been so far behind that Grubby just could go and crush him. It just makes this attack even more painful for Grubby.. | ||

Stephano is in IPL this week, he had a great shot, and then out of nowhere Lucifron comes out of retirement and crushes.Another top 4 finish so soon after the Lone Star Clash is really, really good. Grubby is one of the most consistent foreigner tosses right now, even if he hasn't gotten a big win yet. | ||

One of the biggest chokes in a long time, and I'm still super pissed off about it. I thought Thorzain would finally win a LAN event. | ||

Lucifron, coming out of retirement and crushing face, or BratOK, winning the first tournament he enters with his new team. Honestly I take more negative things about Lucifron doing so well after being away for so long than I do positive things. It's a great accomplishment for him but I think it speaks pretty badly about the state of foreign SC2 scene. Hopefully he sticks around because there just aren't that many great terrans outside of Korea. | ||
