Socke is miles behind now. Impossible to win if Sase plays it right (which he is atm).

Exactly. No one really cares about the pools. I'm sure the KESPA Invitational is going to have some shitty games way below the level of the pool games we're seeing now, but the crowd is going to react like Gods are playing Starcraft 2. If Flash micros a marine to kill a single probe, the crowd will probably go ape shit and start chanting his name. People really know who this guys are ? I thought that kind of bandwagonning was only on tl/reddit... Is there anything coming up on red/blue or should i go to sleep ? I dont give a shit about those BW players. I'm pretty sure the majority if SC2 viewers these days didn't watch BW. I watched maybe 3 games of BW in my life, never played it, but I am way more hyped for the Kespa players and the tournament than the actual MLG. I'll never get that logic -_-
The event is unique, the players are gods and I want to know how good they are at SC2, because I can barely watch any PL games.

Isnt it odd that the Number one ranked player on TLPD who also happens to be the best foreigner isnt having ALL his games streamed. We missed out on his match v Alicia and now also JYP. I get people want to see other players too and thats great but there are 4 streams ffs.
Can you imagine a Tennis Grand Slam tv programme and Nadal, Djokovic or Federer's match not being aired. Some poor decisions imho...Was same with the Arenas. Don't want oversaturation of Stephano before pool play ends most likely. Pretty sure everyone could have predicted the outcome of Alicia, Rain, and JYP. JYP is probably the only one worth casting because he has decent vZ (but Stephano also has amazing vP...) Understandable, but Stephano is the player with the largest stream base, and once he leaves Pool play he has two series before he leaves the tournament. One of those is going to be vs. MKP. You think Stephano is going to receive a lot of coverage tomorrow? Barring a huge upset, they're going to end up with Korean vs. Korean semis and finals. Why not show Stephano while you're still able to? Stephano has already secured his group win, putting him in the winners semi finals, which always get broadcast on the red stream. We will be seeing a lot of Stephano. Yeah, which makes his last series vs. JYP the highlight of this entire day for Stephano. MLG understands that you have to build up stories to have people cheering for players, don't they? Because the SC 2 crowd is not cheering and I think I know why. Do you really think a crowd would be more excited to see Stephano roll over average koreans multiple times? That's not building a story at all. That's just showing a better foreigner defeat a korean. We saw Stephano win in 3 games yesterday, defeating the only threat to him that's enough to show his dominance until we leave pool play. You have to build up a player before you destroy him. I think MKP is going to destroy Stephano, unfortunately. Not building him up before that is going to result in a one-sided series of MKP stomping Stephano and that doesn't result in a story - it results in a same old sigh from the crowd. Socke is getting better coverage this tournament, and I'm glad for that. But Stephano is a crowd favorite when he plays, when he interviews, etc. and MLG not putting him on is costing them viewers. Having said that, the big hype this MLG is the Kespa invitational. I think that's going to bring out a lot of viewers. Eh? Despite Stephano being a foreigner, I'd say MarineKing is the fan favourite. I highly doubt that. I am pretty sure everyone loves MK
Wait wait wait! I'm pretty sure Grubby is the fan favorite! Taking 1 of the 2 losses MarineKing has had in this tournament... Taking out Golden, dream and taking Symbol (who is considered to be the best Zerg in the world right now) to a 1-2 score! Grubby is truly having a great performance.

SaSe vs Socke... foreign hope vs foreign hope
It's really hard to choose who to root for.
Socke. If he wins this game, he automatically wins his group. If Sase wins, DRG should win the group. Easy pick.
|
Daaamn no Sase why would you do this...Imagine Socke getting first in a group where everyone counted him out.
|
Aw, damn it. Doesn't sound good.
Chance to get first, get third instead. -.-

Socke going 2 gas. Sase 1 gas.
Sase went early Core/faster stalker. 4:45Sase going up to 3 gate, Socke went 2gate. Stargate from Sase. Sase is expanding, Socke adds on 2 gates as well, Stargate completing. Socke's phoenix lifts Sase's sentries, uses his army to kill some of Sase's forces. Socke 53 supply to Sase's 48. Sase's natural is completed has an immortal. Small engagement at Sase's main and lifts an immortal, but a second one pops out,Socke is pushed back. Socke still on 1 base, Sase on 2. Sase 60 supply to Socke's 58.
Socke tries to lift up 2 of Sase's 3 immortals, not enough DPS though and Sase is able to hold.
51-41 supply in favor of Sase, but Sase has a natural and Socke has no expand.
Make that 64-33 supply. Sase takes a huge lead.

Game 3 of Sase vs. Socke starting. Socke adding a second gate before tech. Sase still on 1 gate. Sase going 3 gate, presumably some kind of 3 stalker rush. Socke is going stargate. Engagement at Socke's ramp. Socke picks up sentries, forcing Sase to retreat and counterattacks. Lifting an immortal. Sase manages to defend and has a second base up. Socke is still on one base. Sase is going immortal stalker against socke's stargate/4gate.
Socke attacking again, forcing a probe pull. Sase holds however and Socke still hasen't expanded but is going DTs. 67/34 supply.
