It's terran, you can quoue up units. Keeping minerals and gas low isn't always the best with zerg, since you can't really do anything with 3 mutas or a single infestor, so you stockpile it and once you have the tech you spend it.

So amazing!!
This event is incredible!!!
The games have been awesome!!
The show is tremendous! Everyone is doing a great great job in any way!!!
Loved the videos from HotS with Day and Rob !! Only thing that is annoying that I cannot wait to play it no more!! It seems like a huge improvement to an already incredible game! !!!
So much awesomeness <3

All the people saying it's 1am there... the crowd is tired... lol.... its finals week for many schools too so many of us couldn't attend you got to be kidding me. most college students got out a month ago in the states. high school still in session though for many. really. highschools around my area got out about 2-3 weeks ago. well its 3 am time to go to bed and attempt to get up for church in the morning. So is this an atheist church (if there is such thing), because dayum, a religious TLer is like finding snow in summer.
6 hours of sleep and im up for church as well. Go religion!
Anyhow, flashp has the right mindset to be a good terran, and is studying the best terrans. He will probably be the best terran from pro broodwar
Marineking is gonna have to lose in the finals

I don't agree there. Western players getting schooled by noname korean X isn't much fun. Purist, top level play fans can just watch GSL. Imagine the world of tennis being dominated by solely Americans, you can bet your ass that Europeans and the like would lose interest. That's how SC2 is right now. Another example would be the Champions League in football. Only european teams. Maybe a Brazillian team is a lot better, but they simply don't get invited since it's regional.
Idra, while a mediocre player and a douche had to fight his way through countless unbroadcasted matches because the pools are 95% Korean. I can assure you more people would be watching if Idra was playing on the main stage.
The best scenario would be that there is a limit of the amount of Koreans invited. And I'm purely talking from a viewers perspective here. If it's fair is a whole other story.

The games with BW pros weren't good. Neither the cast was, they were probably too excited to see them play.
Players just need more time to show top games, it was excepted. Hopefuly they will come up with something new.

Who is suppy? He beat InControl,Tails,Select,Killer and Bling.That's pretty good.

I feel like this doesn't need saying, but I'll say it: Idra wouldnt get more viewers than marineking, or stephano. Would more people be watching just for idra? Maybe his stream followers.
This is a weird branch off from opinions. I mainly watch GSL and normally watch MLGs, dreamhacks, and the like. Big tournaments.
i
The following has resulted from this:
1: Tournament wins without many koreans, top tier koreans, or any koreans are disvalued in my mind.
2: I pretty much know every korean anyway. When you say "western players getting schooled by no name korean X" it's more like oh xxxxxx who fell out of code a or plays in gstl is climbing up the ladder and this foreigner is his next task.
3: the "final boss" scenario. Basically, when good foreigner like stephano faces koreans or even super koreans like marineking, its like watching someone play mario trying to beat bowser, but there arent any retries or extra lives. It's epic, it's trial by fire. This really doesnt happen for me in GSL, unless if an up and comer is facing like parting or marineking or mvp when he decides to be good.
Basically, these reasons along with the kespa deal MLG made and the good relations with GSL means we will never have korean segregation.

Any unbiased person that can tell me around what level Flash play was?

Anyone have a time for the Stephano v MKP games?

Very, very good. For the time he has been playing that is. Give him 2-3 months and he will be a serious contender to take code A home.

Are the VODs for Kespa tournament not available? I try to watch Leta vs Jaedong, but I get a blue screen saying no stream. Works for Red stream though. So is it impossible to watch Jaedong vs Leta? Y_Y

They don't get invited. They qualify like everyone else through the arenas. And the aren qualification has already a geograhical element (16 NA , 16 EU , 16 KO).
