Funny to see how the occurence of HotS units decreased as the tourney progressed. Barely seen any hots units since ro8..

Guess they stick to their usual guns if money is on the line

So... other than that they are playing in the HotS beta, what is actually making this a HotS tournament? So far I have seen one game with swarm hosts (when the game was already played anyway) and a creep tumor on a ramp. ForGG isn't even putting his hellions into battlemode.

Rather disappointing, if the HotS units are so irrelevant as to see no use in tournaments.

EDIT: let me rephrase that. If warhounds and swarmhosts are so ridiculously OP, why are they not being used now that there's money on the line?

Now onto some nice HotS action. Gogo Nerchio!


This is a HoTS tournament??


I think ForGG doesn't know either, or he would use battle-helions^^
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Well if ForGG would have transformed his Helions to BattleHelions it would have surely helped during his last push.

Off-season = best season

Remember that time when Grubby refused to play Nerchio without stream delay?

Ah well, we'll never know and don't get me wrong, mindgames, knowledge and Nerchio is damn skilled.

Or wait for the thors. Or don't push at all till he gets some turrets up on his mining bases.

Here we go again...

Maybe they should add a new rule next time, players have to use something new so people realise it's a HotS tourney

Grats Nerchio!

Forgg just getting outmetagamed, his tears taste so good. Naruto and Nerchio have been telling him IN CHAT to scv scout and he fails to do so for the 4th game in a row and pays for it.

Forgg: "real lucky nerchio. all build win."

Is that right mr.timing attacker? *cough* Arena MSL *cough*

I don't think Nerchio does streamcheat, but I can understand that forGG feels like he is cheating. 3 times he played cc first, gas first into reactor hellion. One time he did not. 3 times there was the exact counter, one time Nerchio didn't use it.

Thats just how it goes , but forGG could just start scouting, because he could change his build then.

While the games are boring, hopefully if enough players keep doing stuff like this then we won't see super greedy NR15 builds anymore.
