If you take a close look at the video around 7:31:36 you can the the drones selected an moving towards the minerals as he tries to do the trick. He tries a couple of times and then in the last second he succeed. Really pimp play. Pay close attention to the drones and you can se them moving back and forth toward the minerals as he tries to do it. The question is how do you even think to do that, like as a concept. And then you ask how do you manage to remember you can do that in the middle of a high pressure final. And then you ask how do you manage to actually do it in the middle of a high pressure final. | ||

I must say that I was extremely surprised by Happy, he wasn´t attending any HSC before, but he was great (playing and casting). Mana is always a welcome addition and Tarson, Dimaga (Grubby, too, he didn´t attend, sadly) are a must IMHO, they really live what the HSC is all about. | ||

So all the people who were so unimpressed and swore that Yonghwa simply messed up and moved his DTs too soon were wrong? Good to know | ||

Nerchio is #1 EU GM. You don't get #1 EU GM by not playing. Stephano's stopped laddering from what I'm able to see. He does play custom games, etc., but it's not the same. When Stephano was rising he was destroying everyone on ladder and getting 85-90% win rates on EU GM. That's how you're able to tell that a player is aiming for the top, and Nerchio is. EDIT: But then again, there are a couple of smurf Zergs on EU GM. Is Stephano one of them? For example, X Tentaculat, #17 EU GM, has a higher win rate in GM than Nerchio. Stephano participates to almost every major tournament available. As such he has very little time to practice on the ladder, he also mentioned that he doesn't have a home right now so his situation is quite precarious (not money wise obviously) | ||
