This has been a REALLY awesome day of WCS KR, PvT sickness. ^_^

When does PartinG ever disappoint when it comes to PvT though? Lordy, Bo9 with him v. Taeja would be sick.

I never thought the KeSPA players would catch up this fast... In BW the players are always in the B-team at least one year in order to get the fundamentals before going to the a-team.

Agreed. I can't believe Reality, after scanning and seeing HTs, just walked his bio into the LoS blockers in the center. That's just a huge, game-changing mistake.

I really can't wait for more Terran pros to explore Mech vs Protoss. Many high masters are using it against Protoss perfectly fine, I really can't understand why more pros are not exploring it.

WP by Puzzle, its funny cause everyone was talking about how well he won in G2 but I wasn't impressed in that game, but even though he lost g3 he played miles better imo, Puzzle is just too good.

Game three actually showed skill. Game 2 any pro Terran could have won.

Exactly, but if Puzzle had rolled Reality in G3 I would have considered all the hype silly cause before g3 Reality didn't really play that amazingly.

Yes because Reality was magically teleported into WR2 from preliminaries ? You kiddin i hope.

I meant the hype from this series, its already valid to consider Reality one of the very of Kespa, but after g2 people were acting like he played amazing, and until g3 I don't think he showed that amazing play today.
His TvZ is already proven imo, he's a damn good player.

How can some people say Reality played better? He had big advantage lost by blindly getting stormed at the watchtower...the supplies then even up and he still proceeds to move 2 of his tanks outside of Puzzles territory only to see them get blinked on from all sides because he overextended. Decides to try to hide a CC at the bottom right but it gets scouted and loses valuable mining time, stays in storms too long, and continues to overextend..

That doesn`t sound like someone is playing better. He played surprisingly well of course and had some good moments too but I didn`t see him outplay Puzzle that game.

Do you guys mind not using theorycraft threads? Results from a test don't reflect professional matches.as professional matches are not in a bubble.

Man, people are fricking confrontational here today. Snipe always seems to win out or at least come out even in pro battles but whatever. I dont care enough to have people act like pricks for no reason -_-

Ehh I wouldn't say Kespa players. So far from what I've seen, only Reality has been able to go toe-to-toe with the GSL players with Roro behind him.

Thats mainly because everyone is still fairly bad and there is still so much stuff that gets figured out all the time. If Kespa would have waited another 4-5 years it would have taken them a lot longer, atleast a year.

Tbh, he should have waited for stim there. Or ghosts. storm dodging is impossible without stim. Source: me when i have 1 ghost in my ctrl group and i try to spam stim but it doesn't work.

He should have just crushed Puzzle with his first push if he didn't blindly walk up into that storm. How did he play too passively? He had to defend against the blink stalkers, and once he had enough to defend and take his expo, he pushed.


Yeah, the point is that walking his bio blindly through the center of the map is a mistake on par with missing a crucial forcefield or something. It's one mistake, but the fact is that not all mistakes are created equal, and even if you play really well up to a certain point, one crucially huge mistake can still make all that good play for naught.

He could've pushed out way earlier than that, or moved a few tanks around to push the blink stalkers away. By the time he pushed Puzzle had teched to storm and had his second base up, along with an equal worker count. If Reality pushes after the initial hold with a few siege tanks, Puzzle simply hasn't got enough to hold. Of course this is all speculation, but waiting as long as he did was certainly a mistake.

You're kidding right? Reality donated 30 supply worth of units in the middle of the map, if he doesn't do that he wins easily...


I was, ofcourse, reffering to the last engagement..

Someone has to win that battle and Puzzle had the upgrades and the economy to reinforce, so of course he's gonna win, stop whining plz.


Just becaus i have an oppinion or something to say doesn't make it whining. This is a community, i thought sharing your thoughts was what you did? If it hurts you that much im sorry.. jeez

It didn't hurt but saying "how is this fair" seems pretty inflammatory.

lol considering that Reality almost took out SlayerS ace with only 3 months of practice while playing two games while Puzzle has played the game for more than two years and has only focused on SC2. Right! Look at Reality already beat Symbol and Yu-Gi-Oh (two players that have been in a more recent Code S).
