No, I'm pretty sure TheSTC's style is the reason people aren't going muta anymore...>_>

Losing all those infestors on the first engagement was pretty rough.
I'm trying to think what he could have done better...
LING DROP WHEN TERRAN PUSHES OUT
not building ultralisks. Just more infestors or speedbanelings instead of ultras could have crushed that. Ultras on even supply? He could as well just write gg.

i agree, they basically could've not commentated that game. that was a really bad cast by them tbh. they basically provided no info or analysis
And also note that DRG was powering his econ (4 bases) and was hoping to stall out until that 4th kicked in and he would outproduce STC. But STC hit a great timing and took down the third. The STC then had a better army + better econ due to mules so basically gg.

What? MKP debuted the marine splits in open season 2.

Pretty sure no other champion has ever lost to the player they picked.
Wtf? DRG picked TheSTC? Why he wouldn't he pick Polt or Naniwa.....
Because Polt is a beast? Naniwa would have been a good pick though, given that he has like a 10% winrate in GSL
He's a beast in foreign tournaments.
Yeah, he never won anything in Korea........................
ST was a long time ago.
StC hasn't won anything either, though. This is his first time in Code S. Just based on TvZ, Polt's is better than StC's from their recent results and games. StC played awesome in the last game and that's all that matters. DRG could have picked:
Polt, StC, B4, Naniwa, Squirtle, Virus, July and Maru. Maybe he could have picked Virus, but StC didn't look good in his past TvZ's.
