I was just thinking the same thing. I'm watching in 1080p on a big screen TV, and it's still so hard to figure out what's going on in games like that. I know some people hated the stronger team colors mod, but it made it a lot easier to understand what was happening in a battle.
EDIT: Also, yeah Hyvaa! I didn't think of him as one of the stronger SC2 players on Soul, but he's looking very impressive.
You think it's hard for you? Guess if you are colorblind.

If this was a Proleague match, would he be disqualified for that? Do you have to gg under KeSPA rules, or is the rule just that you can't type anything other than 'gg'?
Mistyping gg only gets you a warning. Of course being disqualified from a game you were about to lose doesn't make sense anyways. Players are also allowed to type ppp for pause. They are not allowed to pause the games themselves. A player who mistypes ppp will be disqualified. Yes this has happened before, multiple times. I didn't watch any of the hybrid proleague so I may be out of date with the rules.
I was specifically asking what happens if you just leave without typing anything. Do you get a warning for that? All the examples I know of are of players getting warned for typing something that wasn't 'gg'.
Dunno about that one. Never seen an actual pro game where a player just up and left without gg.
Bogus straight up no-gg ragequit from a Proleague game during the last full BW season. I think STX got a warning for it, with the harsher penalities being saved for if they ended up accumulating more penalities.

this, those infested terran eggs need to have the player's color...it's pretty much impossible to see who has more stuff in these big fights
In the HotS beta, they changed the model for the Infested Terran eggs so that it is an actual infested Terran with a slight bit of team color rather than a big, green beach ball.
Axeltoss's observer micro getting tested by all this action.
Last is playing on a barcode account, Soo on some account with a Korean ID. They don't seem to be enforcing the same rules for these tiebreakers that they did for the regular season. (According to http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/competitions/52#event_128_rules, they were supposed to play all their games on accounts provided by MLG.)
I guess that game was sort of over before that last big engagement, but it was still sort of cool the way Last kept repairing his thors and staying alive against the giant broodlord/infestor army. I feel like normally in that situation I would just see the zerg player roll in --> instant gg.
1. Ty 2. Rain 3. Soulkey 4. Flash 5. Effort 6. Jaedong 7. Hyvaa 8. Soo
Assuming the players will be seeded into the playoffs according to their standings we've got some very interesting matchups. Rain vs Hyvaa seems like it will be a romp but all the other matchups could go any way.
It's working for me again, just showing the EU/KR leaderboard though.
EDIT: nvm, back at 14 minutes.
And that was quick, gg. Jaehoon finishing at the bottom of the KeSPA ranks. I hope he doesn't retire, I want him to continue being a comical fail player like he was in Brood War.
