If herO keeps playing at this level i don't doubt him winning dreamhack again I'm not complaining haha ;D He haven't even lost one map yet, not even in pvp.

Stephano is playing very bad

Taeja should be such a good 2-3 day tournament player, judging by his performance in the weeklies. It just doesn't seem to be happening tho.

Gogo White-Ra! Hope he pulls it out vs. Welmu and shows good games vs Taeja

Uh... "A warrior falls down" and "A warrior falls" are both perfectly correct?

Just came back from watching some Euro 2012, so 5 of 8 Koreans are out. Interesting.

Taeja needs to step his game up.
Hero, Ret and Taeja need to take first, second and third place.
Believe!

MorroW is playing very well. If only he could only play TvZ, he would win lots of stuff.

I dunno, I'd not say it's a matter of confidence, I think he just tends to extremes when he doesn't need to at all. Like dropping a game to that Danish Zerg early on because he went for the proxy everything in his base strat =p
I think Taeja's standard TvP game is at least as good as Keen's and Keen made it all look pretty easy vs Sase earlier in the tournament. Oh well, hopefully he still goes through alongside Sase anyway =)

Sase beat Taeja with a Cannon Rush? Epic. He did. Though It wasnt epic, it was painfull. And i play toss. I found it epic. No one else has the balls to cannon rush a Terran in a tournament. It wasnt ballsy tbh. Taeja went cc first. Sase had to do this or lose. You make it sound like every Protoss Cannon Rushes CC first. every protoss with forge SHOULD do it

At least if there is no loser's bracket. "He falls down to the loser's bracket" makes sense and I guess it's ingrained into Wheat from MLG.

SaSe cannoning that 14CC is brilliant play, whether or not it's super fun to watch. I think people need to give more credit to the mindgames, and get less pissed about cheesy play. Just because it works for a while it doesn't mean it's "brilliant". It's a cheese, just like 4 gate and proxy gating. That works too, but nobody's calling that brilliant. Give it a time and it won't work anymore unless the terran fucks up, just like anything that relies on it not being scouted.
4 gates and proxy gates can be brilliant. Marine/scv all-ins can be brilliant. It's about catching your opponents with their pants down.
More likely Terrans aren't going to go 14cc against SaSe anymore or they're going to pull lots of scvs pre-emptively to stop the cannons. Either one benefits SaSe.
It's just funny to me how everyone on here jacks off to Flash or Boxer cheesing people because it's smart and unexpected and then when SaSe punishes the greediest build a Terran can do everyone's like "what a low-level player" "he can only win with cheese". The attitudes towards cheese seem entirely based on who's cheesing. SaSe's figured out a way to stop 14CC, that's pretty awesome imo.
EDIT: Look at byul or whoever it was against MKP in the TSL qualifier. He knew MKP was going to play greedy and 6 pooled him and then 7 pooled him. Losira's done the same thing to MKP - cheese is a great strategy if your opponent's going to be super greedy. And it's good that it works otherwise everyone would open exactly the same way every game and that would be boring.

whens the last time you saw a two base timing work vs zerg in tvz lately? zergs gota pretty good and defending those and the insane creep spread all the zergs are doing makes it that much harder to do any kind of harass opening
