Perhaps alive just doesnt have the face for it Its sort of like puma he just sells himself of his cheesier plays and EG acknowledges it with those 1-1-1 tshirts I like him. He's probably 2nd best terran in the world atm and play solid in all matchups. Would like to see him open up more. | ||

Well it's kind of only what he does though. He uses either the cheesiest strats you can find (and the most well known too), or the most standard macro ones. There is no in-between for aLive, I guess that's why people don't like him very much, he's not very creative, doesn't have builds/styles that only he does or invented (like other popular players MKP, MC, MMA, HuK, Nestea, MVP, DRG and so on...). His micro is average (like I've never see him attempt to fight banelings with bio, he just runs away), he multitasks and macro kinda well, correct decision making, etc... So yeah, he's sick good, no denying that, probably top 3 Terran atm, but don't expect him to become a fan favorite soon, unless he wins two GSLs or something (but he's down to Code A :D) tl;dr; I think you could just label aLive as the "strongest random Korean Terran", and that would be his special thing :D | ||

I think Symbol will put up a good fight against MKP, but still lose 3-1 | ||

nestea can still beat everyone on this planet and also today, you can still see the genius he is but he is not as perfect as you describe him and by highlighting that he, as every other player, makes mistakes, you can appreciate his awesome moments even more. | ||
