You know for all the talk of foreigners doing well yesterday, the two that actually had a chance at making the finals, stephano and nerchio, were eliminated and it looks like it'll be 3 koreans and Sen in the final 4
Both players start with a mirror 15 hatch build. Go up to speed and baneling best. Sen h its a great 1/1 timing and with superior skill and takes game 2.
15-pool versus hatch-first for Suppy and Lowely, as they started out on Cloud Kingdom. Both players established on two bases, but lowely with quick gas followed up with an early roach-warren while Suppy went for speed and banelings. As lowely prepared for a roach-attack, Suppy managed to scout his building army and up in drones, put down spines and a spire. Lowely was denied and with speedlings of his own, he managed to take down the third of lowely and harass his natural while Lowelys roaches were in no-mans land on the map.
Though down in supply, Suppy took a third and denied the third of Lowely with mutas and as both players built infestor-tech and armys, Suppy once again caught Lowely in an unfortunate position on the map and with quick fungals decimated the army of lowely.
Suppy with another good read on lowely's early aggression and a good follow-through, 2:0

she proved herself in RSL and MLG, beating players like bomber etc but not top top protoss like parting/creator/rain
She only played two Koreans in RSL: Hero, whom she did beat, and then Leenock in the finals that she lost.
Wow it is reasonable to predict Parting vs HerO and then Rain vs Creator on the other end. I suppose HerO is the least likely when compared to Sen, and then maybe Rain against Titan... but those Korean Protoss look to be the strongest in their brackets to me.
just stop with that bs already. you don't know anything about him and still you say he has no personality. who knows maybe he has had sex with a minor or something?

Yeah she got mind gamed to shit and her confidence was shot.
I honestly wonder how you folks arrive at these conclusions. Did you ask her, did she say something, did you perform a psych eval? I don't see the causation without more evidence that losing must be the result of poor confidence.
I think Scarlett didn't have a clue how to win from the outset, as casters said, and in game 3 she was just desparate and completely off. Losing two stray overlords early game, being supply blocked 20/18 and not having an overlord queued for like half a minute ... :/
EPT
Lowely vs
