:XD We're too spoiled by the reactions of Kespa pros these days :p The beauty with them, so reactive. Especially the zergs. They are living on that fucking minimap and as soon as something red pops up on the minimap they are on it in a split second. So seXy^^~~~

It's funny to see a gazillion Ultras waddle across the map to deal with a marine drop behind the mineral lines

Landing your fourth @ the 21'30 mark is way too late.

Yes. Nuke every square inch of the map, it's bound to hit the zerg army.

dJRecco is playing like a boss right now, Major is getting outplayed even though he's playing quite well

I really do wish that JRecco would put like two spores and an extra spine or two at his extra bases. Or an infestor or something. Never needing to worry about drops again.

lmfao.

Why is he making 22 Corruptors?
Edit: Guess that works.

That was the worst engagement possible for zerg but he still comes out ahead..

Too bad. I don't understand this mentality. I don't understand how it's difficult to understand. Not to be a prick and I do like to pop into LRs once in a blue moon to comment, but there is basically no story, no underdogs, no climactic anything.
Hack and almost all these koreans do not have a ton of personality (regardless of anyone's justifications to subjectivity), they are all Code B to low Code S players that are almost all recyclable. Granted, most of the foreigners in TSL are of the same quality in the EU scene, at the very least we could have rooted for an underdog. Now at best we'll have JR (who I wouldn't mind to be honest) or Major (aka always one train wreck away from something). I haven't watched any of the TSL matches because I didn't find anything here for me, but I just wanted to address the terrible point people make of 1. Not wanting to watch because of no foreigners OR 2) Not understanding why.
It's not always about saying, 'ok, based on our system, we have the highest pool of talent', it's also about making it entertaining and by human nature, rarely is something worth watching unless there is also a back story. It should be noted that TSL doesn't have the "best" talent anyway as the majority of Code S players did not even bother to make more than a couple or any qualifying attempts, which is why placing a few invites (for the draw) ALONG with qualifiers (for the skill and newcomers) is what made TSL3 so great.

The remaining player pool looks boring to me. I have nothing against koreans, but there are no interesting koreans (MC, MVP, Taeja, Squirtle, MKP, Losira, Nestea, Parting, DRG) left or they didn't even compete in tsl4 in the first place. Now I have no-one to root for in the top 8. I guess I'll just go for whoever foreigner is left just because of the upset factor ^^
It is hard for me to root for someone who doesn't stand out playstyle or personality-wise.

Morphing broodlords over mass marines. Not smart.
JRecco still wins though.

Is JRecco the find of TSL4 like Thorzain was for TSL3?
