noooo i missed the sase vs stephano games =/, quick summary plsssssss. any new interesting b.os? Your standard 2 base triple immortal push and stephano failed a baneling bust in game 2. well then he must have adjusted his b.o cus if u hit w/ 3 immos the push comes at around 10-10:30ish and zerg has a pretty big army by then, what time did he push out at?
Haven't seen his other PvZ's this tournament, but he went quick 4 gas and mined with 2 probes in each, different from what im used to see at least.

I think Stephano is going to Korea. Maybe? Other than that the only other foreigner in Korea that comes to mind is TLO.

Oh some small tournament. Don't know if you heard of it. It was called TSL 3

am i the only one who wants alicia to win (it all!)?

how does doing well at mlg == one of the best in the world
|
How long was Sase in korea for?
Either way he is showing that if you approach it correctly you really feel the benefit.
Stephano...the exception that proves the rule

Sase just a little bit quicker on everything than Alicia...

Yeah I doubt that Flash'll get anywhere without training more BW. I think that we can say that his SC2 is solid considering that he went 6-0.

How does the crappy MLG extended series rule work if you were to face someone you've beaten in pool play, in the grand finals?
I mean, since you are supposed to have an extra chance coming from the winners you get an easier time, however, with the rule of crap do you get even more chances since you've previously beaten this person? Well I probably already know the answer since, as far as I remember, it doesn't happen when you beat someone in the winner's final but that just goes to show how retarded the rule is.
I think it actually be way more interesting if no player had the advantage going into the grand finals. I usually lose abit of interest at that point seeing as it's incredibly rare that the guy with the advantage doesn't win, as he more often than not will also have the mental or stamina advantage.
Every MLG I check in and hope that they finally realized extended series is a dumb rule. The person who won earlier already had a huge benefit of not having to go to the losers bracket, now they also get the benefit of essentially a free win if they happen to get that guy again. I agree that it ruins the championship too (along with every other round where the rule comes into effect).

Alicia is so damn underrated compare to Sase.

You keep over the scores from the previous games but go into a Bo9 for the grand finals.
But not if the guy who comes from the winner's, wins? Right? Then it's just a, what? bo3? 5?

And by the way, I think he was the only Foreign Terran to win large-scale tournaments.

Never mind, just needed to refresh browser! LOL

Sase's run so far:
2-1 Beastyqt
2-0 desRow
2-0 Mystik
2-1 Ostojiy
2-1 Sleep
2-1 Heart
2-1 Socke
2-0 viOlet
2-1 Rain
2-1 Grubby
2-0 Leenock
2-0 Polt
2-1 Stephano
I'd say he's up there for one of the best runs in MLG history.
