No the matchup is so boring it's affecting other games as well.

DONGRAEGU, don't mess this up, please crush this "pro". If you do this, you are one in the line of Julyzerg and Jaedong.

LOL did he really do that? I figure you're just joking around, but for some reason I can actually see DRG doing that.

Ugh why would they get a LOL commentator to cast SC2? Why can't they get one of the good casters like Apollo? Must be trying to save money. :/

I don't think Apollo wants to move to korea just to cast OSL...

There was a different camera angle earlier showing the upper decks on the sides. They looked empty. Not looking good for attendance on first SC2 OSL. Hopefully the next finals they get a better turnout. Not with the quality of the games in this finals. What happened to the days of DRG vs MMA, with insane back and forth multitasking heavy games  That's still around. We just have the wrong races and wrong map pool atm. Really? Whenever I watch TvZ these days Zerg seems to go passive ling / bling / infestor into broods or ultras against a bio heavy composition or roach muta into infestor brood lord vs mech. Either way it lacks the finesse and micro of marine tank vs ling / bling / muta to me. Really, watching DRG vs MMA finals I remember thinking how bright sc2's future was. Currently I feel like every matchup has taken a huge step backwards, and nothing I've seen in HotS excites me. WoL is very bad right now, only TvT is really worth watching. Maps got really big, greed got really easy, and the game suffered as a result.

No way they can afford Apollo I'd say, but it would be money and who wants to actually move to korea.

I am feeling really irritated that Rain is letting some of these hatcheries down when his probe is there.

Not many of the top casters will be willing to move to Korea for a long period of time. Especially if they've already established themselves in the foreign scene.

I'M GONNA BE A BAD BOY I'M GONNA BE A BAD BOY
FINISH HIM RAIN

Looks like about less than 1000 in the crowd watching. For a finals....

Revolutionary Toss of SC2? =) Not exactly. The closest to "revolutionizing PvZ" would be HerO with his warp prism madness I'd say. yeah that was so close to being revolutionary that white-ra had been doing it a year earlier than hero.
Not gonna discuss this but I disagree. He's been doing speed prism builds, yeah but I was talking about having 2+ warp prisms on the map, constantly harassing and outmultitasking your opponent so he can't move out while building an army that can fight. That's still how you play lategame PvZ, zergs just discovered static defense.

Spring season Finals had 8000 crowd, Summer finals had 10000+ crowd at the SAME LOCATION as Jinair OSL Finals and broke all kinds of expectations.
