Sure sen and others win stuff in their respective communities but looked at the broader perspective. Parting and Creator, and to a slightly lesser extent hero are all top quality GSL protoss, they are best protoss have to offer, and yet they have games that are very close, 3-2, against players like vortix and suppy? Something is just weird about that. Vortix is not just "some zerg", he proved himslef by winning against ForGG, Supernova, viOLet and nearly everyone in Europe before. | ||

Something is just weird about that. I agree with you, it's extremely hard to debate about it because I for one would have no idea which steps to take in balancing a game. Having said that, I didn't see the Vortix games, but Parting did the exact same daybreak build against Scarlett that he did against Suppy. Hence Suppy basically knew what was coming through overlord scouts to check for similarity, and had the counter available. Also, Partings odd 2nd game all in really wasn't that strong in the first place. :/ I know it seems strange that the results are so close, but I think the Zergs should at least recieve some credit where it's due. Certain strats beat others, and a lot of it is information. Suppy had the upper hand in that regard I think. | ||

The most recent episode hit the front page of /r/starcraft, but it wasn't that well known before that. Looks like someone at Blizzard recognized they would make great little fillers and arranged to air the entire set! | ||

The robo was restarted as Rain began his immortal-production and took an expand of his own. Rain quickly continued into robo bay, with Creator slightly behind. Rain started warp-prism speed imidiatly and went to harass with double immortals. Creator started colossi and blink, while Rain began +1 attack. The harass from Rain was quickly denied as he mismicroed and lost an immortal needlessly. Rain was the first to go to three bases as Creator pushed across the map, up ~25 army-supply. The only hope of Rain, his superior colossi-count, proved insufficient as Creator was able to use his blink-tech to close the distance and push through to Rains main. Creator with a deadly two-base timing proved too much for Rain who tried spread himself thin between double robo and a third base, 2:1Thank you m0ck and everyone else who's been doing LRs  ♥ | ||
