Glory to e-sports! This is the future!

Seriously, I agree. It's pretty sad that people care more about foreigners winning than quality of play.

What are they basing that 91% off? MLG tournament or TLPD?

I doubt that any player has a 91% winrate in the TLPD.

God I hate those foreigner biased people. Finally they are leaving this thread.

Pretty much this :D I love when foreigners get eliminated, half of the bullshit goes with them!

No offense to foreign players, but the bias posters in LR threads are ridiculous.

So everyone who watches the Olympics for certain countries is a racist.

Last I checked, there is no country called "Foreign".

I don't get how people are saying SaSe had some crazy advantage that he threw away when he moved out. Are people watching the same game? At that point, it was SaSe's 20 probes 1 nex to Alicia's 27 probes 2 nex. Sorry, that's WAY behind in eco. Just because he had a bigger army at that moment doesn't mean he's ahead. Alicia brilliantly used his blink tech to keep threatening SaSe's eco and forcing him to stay in base. That means SaSe's bigger army doesn't ever get to push. Or else a base trade like we saw happens. As soon as SaSe let those probes into his main and snipe 5 probes, he was behind.

SaSe screwed up when he saw it was a blink stalker build and then didn't position his army to watch for the backdoor blink. All it would take is an obs and 2-3 zealots hanging around at that cliff while the rest of his army stays at the ramp. But he let them in to finger his booty. And then he was behind so he rolled the dice and went for the base trade. SaSe's big mistake was not guarding his main's cliff from the blink even though he had ample time to see Alicia's blink tech.

Sending that obs on a straight line to Alicia's base so that it was easy for Alicia to snipe it out was another big mistake. If that obs had been at home watching the cliffs, he doesn't get backdoored. Or if it had been sent around the side, then SaSe wouldn't have to use another obs to go scout the expo. Accumulation of small mistakes after getting ahead in army is what cost SaSe the game.

Whenever that situation occurs, I just assume that the player with blink won and go do something else.
