The funnest part about the korean tournaments recently is to read each excuse people come up with for every ESF player loss to a KESPA player.

Loser always plays bad - it's the law of sports, and even an underdog who plays the best game level of his career can beat anybody. Kespa makes SC II pros look bad cuz they outplay em, Rain was close to losing it but he kept coming back with nice storms and mis-storm would had ment end for him.

I dunno, suiciding all those ghosts wasn't Rains doing. He was playing solidly though.

you could say rain having good ht positioning forced mkp to get desperate with his emps


what good ht position. mkp simply rallied his entire ghost at tower, forgot about them, and they got demolished by zealots and colossus. There was no HT involved

Rain wouldn't let him. I was very impressed by Rain's retreats.

not sad for mkp this time, he got cocky, chose not to end the game, got punished for it, rain's third was absolutely free kill, yet he let it stand, I even thought that he was saving energy for mass manner mules b4 attacking.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

I think it still looks relatively even between Kespa and GOM-players. It'll probably be clearer once the GSL and OSL have run for a couple of weeks what the relative skill level looks like. And then, of course, another six months or so until we can really start to comment on one group being better than the other. Most likely though is that we're simply going to see more of a merger with some OSL players being really good, most of them mid-level and some of them bad.

They're teaching them what those things Mvp will drop at the end of the game are.

What I don't get is where are people getting "MKP completely outplayed Rain" from? He had a massive build order advantage due to Sun not seeing his third in time, that's the only reason he was ahead at any point at all. His banshees were denied perfectly, his drop attempt lost him more than it gained, and Rain outmaneuvered and outcontrolled him in every engagement throughout the game.

Literally the only reason MKP had an advantage was due to being up on bases because of Sun's observer getting picked off and Sun likely lacking experience to guess that there was indeed a third / misjudging the timing for taking his own expansions.

MKP made plenty of mistakes in that game, no denying that - but give Sun some credit, too. Barring a few judgement mistakes in early-midgame, his play was amazing.


MKP have a 50 supply lead over sun at one point, and with a game ending army at his 4th that could destroyed sun's 3rd no contest.

Instead, he retreat to let sun get a couple bases and templars, then proceed to throw away almost all his ghosts because he doesn't pay attention.

Land exactly 0 emp on templar, eat storms like candies

Its MKP game to throw


MKP couldn't have possibly known how much of a supply lead he has, or whether Sun has storm ready or not. It was a mistake on his part - but it's not like move-commanded his army into colossus or something.

By that logic, Sun should have won because after the initial failure of banshee harass he had a pretty big window where he could have easily punished MKP's greedy expansions.

I don't know if you were watching the game, but the ghost throw-away happened because Sun had TWO groups of Zealots harassing MKP at the same time, one at his 4th, the other in his main - MKP pulled back most of his army to deal with that, and Sun moved in at the middle hoping to snipe the expo, but ran into ghosts instead. Again, it's a mistake by MKP - sure, but it's a mistake Sun has forced him to make with good multitasking and timing. Give credit where it's due, man.

Analyzing the map. They do that "paint-thing" all the time during sports games for specific analysis of plays, moves, etc.

Moletrap does not know mules are rocket powered?

He lost his passion ...

Let's see if MVP is able to make it at the OSL stage.

Nice to see a full crowd
