in BW it's much easier to overcome a BO disadvantage with excellent micro. in SC2, sometimes you just flat out lose even if the other guy has bad micro and you micro perfectly.

There are actually very few unwinnable "bo wins". BBS vs 3 hatch before pool or two gate vs 14CC for instance. Idra's complaint are not that unfouded (but he already complained about that sort of thing a lot in bw).


After seeing Jaedong defend a hatch first or flash defend a cc first against an early pool (might've been a six pool),
I am sure that there are no "bo win" which cannot be overcome!

I don't think the answers will differ much from:
Mechanically solid, strategically hilarious.

There was some decent play (Reality, Jangbi) but most of it was just *facepalm*

They have been the quality you would expect from a bunch of mid-masters people playing eachoter.

about Playhem Master-Grandmaster quality

but with a twist, and some really amazing little details to watch out for
eg: I noticed hero sent a warp prism back to pick up 4 sentries as he was retreating his army, because sentries are slower than the rest and were in the back of the group, with fast roaches chasing them

You mean SC2 has been played and the conversation hasn't been dominated by stephano even when he's not relevant, well I think the SC2 community is making wondrous progress with the hybrid proleague.

Reality looked really strong, he also was the only Terran to win a TvP today.

I think Jangbi actually looked the most solid today. But kinda hard to compare the guys that kind of knew what they actually were doing because their opponents sucked balls.

They range from incredibly painful to watch (Jaedong vs By.Sun) to absolutely hilarious (M18 vs RoRo). Overal, pretty damn entertaining.

Yeah, Leta vs Great. 14cc > 4 pool.

yeah, i'll give you that. it's always hard to say though off of one game when we know neither player's strength

anyway, hoping to see soulkey pwn now

They've been fun to watch, but not what you'd call the highest quality play.
Trolling the Battle.Net forums, the most fun you can have with your pants on.
