Hero has a lot more foreign travel experience, doesn't he? He probably knew to expect this sort of thing. This. If this is true, then it's probably his own lack of foresight that could be to blame. | ||

Seed spawns as the red Protoss in the top right position. Gumiho spawns as the blue Terran in the bottom right position. 2:00min Gumiho goes for the 2-Rax on 12 and 14 supply, hiding one of his Raxes in his natural. Seed scouts the main base of Gumiho but the Probe gets locked into the main by an evil SCV building a supply depot to complete the wall. 4:00min Seed goes for Gate-Gas-Core, builds a zealot, then a Stalker. Gumiho just now scouts Seed and sees the Stalker timing. | ||

I have the feeling that players are expected to be responsible for their own personal schedule and be the ones to bring it up. If you think about it, it's a little demanding to expect GOM to know which tournaments are being attended by which players. GOM's a broadcast company, not a players' union or anything like that. | ||

You might be infernal, but I think I like you. In unrelated news, the early game has been quite nicely played by both. | ||

Gumiho just now scouts Seed and sees the Stalker timing. 6:00min Seed and Gumiho build there Expansion buildings at almost the same timing. Gumiho got quite a few Marines, he also took the watch tower with some of them. Seed harasses the Marines with 2 Stalkers and a Zealot but Gumiho pushes out and kills one Stalker and the Zealot with the Marines coming from the watchtower. 8:00min Gumiho pushes into Seed's natural, backs off again. Seed walks around with his one leftover Stalker and kills a few Marines. Seed builds his third base now while Gumiho finishes his 3rd CC in his main base. 10:00min Gumiho adds more Gates and goes for pure Gateway units for now. Gumiho scouts the third with an SCV and is on 4 Rax with 2 Reactors and 2 Tech Labs now, researching Stim and Combat Shields | ||

Well that and the team's. I mean IM knew that Seed had this important match coming up and still brought him to the TAC finals, probably figured that was a more prestigious title to win, but it does leave Seed in a bit of a jam here. Also I mean there is a loser's bracket, so it's not all over if he does get knocked out! IM/Seed probably figured it was worth the risk | ||

Absolutely loving it. | ||

This is why I dislike the 'PvT' boring naysayers. It's currently a far more interesting matchup to watch than PvZ by far, at least when played by players of the highest calibre (namely Koreans) | ||
