Finally made an account, because it was such a good game. I really like Grubby so it's a bit sad to see him lose, but Sting is scrappy as hell! So much fun to watch him play! Plus, a Korean Terran wins. Can't go wrong with that.

It's true, and it's a little embarrassing but at the same time, it's gotta be hard watching an idol lose in the 5th game after winning in the 5th game in the last two series that he played.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

As a fan of Korean dominance in tournaments, I couldn't be happier. Both Dreamhack and IEM taken by Koreans. Sting deserved it, and hopefully it'll be a good sign for the future that his career holds.

Game 5, decide for a proxy gate, don't expect 1-1-1 in return?

Grubby took a risk and it didn't pay off, but it still gave for an amazingly intense game. Don't get why people are complaining about the 1-1-1 here...


In all honesty Sting was probably going to 1-1-1 anyways, but its ridiculous that people are now criticizing Sting for "cheesing" when Grubby went for a blink all-in twice and proxy gated the last game. In a Bo5 its the smart move to at least throw in one cheese to throw off your opponent and not be so predictable.

Grubby went Blink all-in once. The other build was a 2 Base Blink Stalker pressure, not an all-in.


It's not a pressure, you are far behind if you don't stop terran production with those blink stalkers. there's no transition or going home if you don't.

Yeh he opened with gas so was probably going to do it anyway, but still it's a bit rich to complain when grubby went for the proxy gate But I can see grubby fans are upset, so close.

Hey guys, Grubby have had a big win. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Grubby's_Starcraft_II_Series_Pro_Invitational_3

Ok it was his own invitational but impressive kills none the less. :3

Good games. I don't really like watching 1-1-1's, but the series was fun to watch regardless. Grats to sting!

well, this will probably be the only thing Sting win in his entire life. So enjoy it while he can.

That was a very close series, and seriously a heartbreaking one for anyone who's even somewhat a fan of Grubby. I was really hoping for him to finally get his first big SC2 win, but Sting played so damn well...
