It's unfair for Sase having to play the guy that controls space time continuum.

Doens't change the fact that everyone is tuning out except the hardcore SC2 crowd. I'll continue watching, but most people won't. Just a fact.

Unless I've been totally misinformed, GSL gets well over 100,000 viewers every broadcast.

I think there are enough people who value quality games over seeing white people that there will be more than 8 viewers.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

horrible decision making by sase when he was contained. shouldve immediatly moved out and build a nexus when he killed alicias first obs... no idea why he didnt....


Because he's tired as fuck.


And the Koreans are on a 12 hour time zone difference. Everyone is tired at MLG.

A jetlag isn't even remotely comparable to playing 17 hrs concentrated, with 5.5 hrs sleep, and having to play another few hours


You do realize SaSe is actually living in Korea, right? It's not like he is not jet-lagged

Edit: I don't wanna blame anything on jetlag or being tired or whatever, just pointing it out ~~


I remember when people were making that excuse for Nestea losing to Naniwa. I was like..... "You do realise they were probably on the same flight..."

MKP, DRG, faceless korean top3


Alicia is FAR from being faceless.


[image loading]

How can you possibly say this man is faceless eh!

but seriously, it's nice to see Alicia having a good result again, been a while for him since he last had some decent success.


Better faceless than having to endure that make-up.

oh man, didn't they all have terrible makeup that season lol


MKP was the only one who looked good. Not sure what's conclusion I should draw from that.

Sase ruined Socke's chance to be #1 in the pools (so top 6), then destroyed the best chance a foreigner had to take this (Stephano). We had a foreigner working for Koreans ^^

J/k, nice run


ye... i honstely dont like SaSe at all as a personality and i got fucking angry when stephano baneling busted because he underestimated sase... also socke wouldve been on DRGs spot with socke winning the last map against sase.

sase is simply not able to beat any top tier koreans, thats why i wouldve rather seen stephano -,-
now we have alicia as #3 who no1 likes or cares about (i guess) and then an extended series final, so the ranks are pretty much obvious from that point on - because of sase :D
still a great run obviously... but not a run i liked to see.

I like Sase and Alicia. Alicia used to be pretty fucking sick like a year ago, his army movements were always really good, especially in terms of zoning.

And Sase is a foreigner coming from the open bracket, that's pimp as fuck.

The Alicia fans should be able to stomach a "faceless" description when compared to MKP and DRG, really. Yeah, I know who he is and he was good a long time ago, and now he's good again. In the meantime, everyone else got their faces, and he didn't.


Being faceless is not relative. Alicia's been around for a long time with his ups and downs and has established himself as a solid Code A player. Faceless implies that a player has had little to no exposure, and Alicia has had plenty.

I'm getting tired of seeing the same people in the finals at MLG events. Although Alicia is new this time around, I really hope that some of the other players can up their game so we don't have another DRG and MKP final. They are great players (and produce great games), but in terms of interesting storylines it gets stale after a while.

Why would SaSe not just chill by his nexus?

I'm not sure either. It's possible he thought he didn't have nearly as many probes, but in fact he wasn't too far behind, especially considering his Nexus finished first and Alicia's probes were in SaSe's base for quite some time.

It's also possible he thought the base was where he moved out to and hoped he could kill it.

But I agree. Staying by his nexus seemed like the best option to me. I would have thought he would have seen the observer over his army the entire time, which means the blink stalkers were always going to snipe the base if he moved out.

Ah well. Good run.

Nah, Alicia had way too much tech standing in his main base, if left unchecked, alicia only needed a few pylons and he's be ready to go. Sase had to build his tech from scrap, which would neglect his virtual probe lead.

Yeah, true. There is also that.

Just a bad situation to be in, really.

Didn't know you had the viewer numbers for MLG. Glad to see you can make factual statements on it when none of us know the viewer count.

Lol.


Well I've watched every other tournament that does show viewer numbers on twitch etc, and the numbers always drastically drop when there are no more foreigners. Obviously not to 8 people, that's a slight exaggeration
