3 base z > 3 base toss
perfectly balance

I like how all void rays always die before they even get charged up

Pretty good game and really well pvz shown by Titan. Key mistake was over commiting to a killing push after already killing the fourth, no reason to do that when you can go into late game vs zerg when you can take a fourth while their on 3.
Pretty cool he even managed to stay in it as long as he did, if he had gotten his fourth up sooner and the burrowed ling hadn't been stuck there, he might've had a fighting chance.

why does blizzard feel the need to make overlays over the ones they made built into the game? lol

Also the players who are able to go to every single event or have a team that will send you which no Korean really does except MC. Stephano also pads his prize money a bit by picking the easier events. I dont disagree with it because I think its a good idea but theres no denying he does it.

Lmfao, you can't be serious Why not? There are perhaps 8-10 high-tier players here.
Just conveniently forget the fact he's taken down numerous tournaments, placed highly in practically every tournament he's entered as well as beaten many top Korean players. I think he's well and truly already proved his class

 Curious vs  Titan
Game 2 - Ohana
After the classic'est of classic openings, Titan followed up with an Ohana favorit: immortal-production. Threatening the push from 8:30, Titan finally pushed out at 10 minutes with 4 immortals. Curious was quick to initiate a counter-attack and as Titan was late with a warp-in of sentries, the counter-attack broke through. Meanwhile, Titan was held off in his push towards Curious base. Curious was ahead, but after a regrouping and another push-out from Titan, another counter-attack from Curious is trapped on Titans ramp, and Titan catched a large group of roaches. Titan pushed out again and his push, combined with warp-ins in the main of Curious, did a lot of damage, taking down the Lair. Curious seemed to stabilize, but Titan kept up his harass while taking his third. A big push with Colossi looked to finish the game, but surprise corrupters caught Titan without anti-air and the army of Titan was destroyed between spine-crawlers and infested terrans. Curious continued his turtling and Titan seemed increasingly desperate as he began void-ray production. Curious waited for his 200 supply deathball army and with a final push across the map, took out Titans army.
Curious with a comeback win, 1-1

Why do you say this?

This was Titan's loss

Apparently having Korean blood is the only way to be considered equal to a Korean, results do not matter.

CJ_Hero is pulling this off somehow

I don't really understand why Blizzard is making the prize money so top heavy, especially when they acknowledge that there's some significant balance issues (by significant I mean not negligible). Why not spread out the prize money amongst more of the players?

So are you ridiculously handsome or do you look like a wreck? Sometimes a drink doesn't taste that good even if you've mixed all the good stuff together, you know.

I said his entire sample size vs top koreans is vast enough and you listed one single tournament with a weak lineup as your basis.

Titan's 3rd base was really late, and his composition was shit. Also, he had ~45 probes until his 3rd base was up, which, as previously mentioned, was really late. If he had been able to maintain his lead, he would've won that but he was stuck in 2 base mode.

at least major vs cjhero ha sbeen pretty crazy

You make the money by doing well at the opportunities you are given. Which are much, much higher in number and favour for popular players when compared to the nearly zero for Code A/Code B players (tight qualifiers, no invites, no seeds etc.).

Why voids vs late game zerg... They are useless thanks to fungals and ITs. Should've went with hts/blink stalkers, at least some chance to win that way. =(
