there are also only 4 terrans in the round of 16 in the current OSL, does that mean bw is imbalanced? Terran has been doing badly since the patch everywhere. Current Code SMvp 2-1 SuHoSin Happy 2- 0 SuHoSin SuperNoVa 2-1 Sniper With only Nestea winning so far. Terrans having some adjustment problems for sure, but badly everywhere is overstating the facts. Apparently they can still win  Yeah, the fact that the best terrans, who also happen to be the best players, manage to beat a couple zergs who only have gotten into code s after the patch change means everything is balanced. Right kiddo.
+ Show Spoiler [Offtopic] +In the GSTL round 2, the current standing is 4-3 (in favor of Z) so far. I dunno, the latest stats in korea don't point out a big problem. But like i said previously, its still too early to call anything. Ofc adjustment takes time, so the earliest games after the patch would probably favor Z who got buffed. But after the adjustment (and looking at the very latest results in GSL/GTSL) its starting to balance out. Ahwell, too much offtopic.
Lets just see what the future brings, like right now Hero Vs Taeja - woot

It would be impressive, but not that impressive. The competition is very good, but not out of this world.

ah, Nerchio will destroy stephano :$
also i picked nerchio to win it all. Destroy Stephano? Damn you just said something you're about to regret!! He wont destroy him but yea Nerchio will most likely win. Stephano has been traveling over a month now and his ZvZ has gotten worse and worse so yea I also think Nerchio will win  Really Sad becuase I would love to see Stephano stomp Hero but proberly not gonna happend Stephano will win man, Don't you worry He is going to take the whole thing.
At redbull he won against violet !

You're right. Ret could also win then.

I just realized we might be losing our last terran here. I usually root for Hero but this almost makes me want Taeja to win.

He lost to Supernova because he rallied half his Hatches through a siege line for ages. Really, really sloppy, but it seems to be the kind of thing Terrans are relying on to win at the moment.

Uh... that probe is alive for like really long in Taeja's main...

Which explains why MouzThorzain won the last Dreamhack event.

I agree... it's not better than some of the GSL runs we've seen, but it's surely one of the best non-Korean tourny runs.

Just the really old use of hallucinations to warp DT's into a main off a low ground pylon

17 isn't that young.
Prodigies are a few years younger. Maruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Uh... I guess I'll say it first: Flash. Not only was Flash playing BW at a high level when he was 15, he WON his first OSL when he was 15.  I still love the story behind that (if that is what really happened). His parents didn't approve of him being a pro-gamer and wanting to stop school, but Flash knew he had it in him so he made a deal with his parents. He was gonna take 1 year off for SC, and if he didn't win a big tournament during that year he would quit forever. He won his first OSL like 3 months after that :p True story or not, his parents are laughing all the way to the bank right now.
It's not exactly what happened, I'm pretty sure it was 1 month to win Courage. Especially as Flash did not win the first OSL he was in (but went to semis by beating Bisu, not that bad for a 14 (?) year old).

Wasn't at one of the two main events though. Both DHS and DHW was won by Liquid last year.

Sniper vs supernova was indeed a lucky series for supernova. Sniper failed an allin on antiga, and he lost to a 2 base tank rine push, which a zerg should demolish when played right.

Same. Top side of the bracket has so much higher quality matchups, a lot of them could be finals quality wise ^^;
I just hope Sase/Ret/Naniwa make it through the bottom side so that the finals isn't a complete Stephano/Hero/Taeja/Nerchio dominance.
