If I had an euro every time I heard that in 2012. There were like 10 best upcoming zerg foreigners last year.


So much talent, bro.

We all should be happy that all these new up-and-coming talented foreign zerg players are able to take down top korean terrans consistently


You said this because you don't come to Iron Squid

I was so exited to see MVP play in the flesh God i'm really not happy about this.

Were the Goswser-MVP matches that badly in favor of Goswser?

I don't understand Leenock's build at all, why get a third at the perfect time for your opponent to deny it with mutas :/


the build didn't make a whole lot of sense to me either.

I thought maybe it was going to be 4 queen into 1/1 speed roach timing, but his lair started waaaaay too late for that.

skipping ling speed and baneling nest just isn't that great in my opinion.

I only saw game 2 and 3, in game 2 he hardcountered mvp's build with a roach rush and in game 3 it was pretty standard and he just slowly won an advantage with ling/infestor/bane/ultra

He was in this series it was not even close.


Yeah I saw that he slaugtherd MVP. But how is that possible. I mean. MVP is basicly the closest thing we got to a SC2 bonjwa? How is it possible for some pretty good but absolutly unremarkable foreigner to come out of nowhere and 3-0 the guy.

I am concerned. It either means that MVP has lost his ooomph.
Or that the game design makes it easy for one race to eliminate skill gaps.

Or MVP had an reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally off day. but you know... still feels weird to me.


Skill gaps? Yea I get you disguised balance whine post but if you look at the matches Goswser knew exactly what MVP was going to do.



You're starting to understand 30% of what a lot of people are complaining about


Whine whine whine and more balance whine but the problem is these games had nothing to do with balance issues but everything to do with an extremely well prepared Goswser who countered MVP time after time. Im wondering how much time Goswser spend analysing MVP replay on these maps.


I disagree, but won't start a discussion of it here because it is neither the time nor the place.

Skill gaps? Yea I get you disguised balance whine post but if you look at the matches Goswser knew exactly what MVP was going to do. This got nothing to do with mechanical skills but everything to do that Goswser studied and prepared very well for MVP while I guess MVP thought this would be easy spanking a foreigner and didn't prepare at all.

And we see the results



You know. Maybe i would buy that if not for the fact that every single foreigner who is able to produce results over the last 8-9 month was a zerg.

And even if you are right. If the best foreigner in BW, idra(or take any other one you like better), would prepare like 2 month straight to beat someone in a Bo5 who is an accomplished A-Teamer, say Stats. You think he would have been able to do that? Cuz i certainly don't see it. So it still feels weird to me that things like this are possible, in a non mirror matchup(cuz in a mirror matchup, i see how things are sometimes coinflippy)

Are people really surprised about MVP losing to Goswer ? I mean we all know he is struggling a lot with his wrists, and can't really train that much. Moreover MVP has never been impressive in foreign tournaments, he focused exclusively on GSL.

All of this against one of the best upcoming foreigners, not that surprising.


Never been impressive in foreign tournaments? Get out of here with that shit. He doesnt travel a lot and yet he has won Blizzcon, MLG, IEM and WCG.

Well you might disagree because you and many other balance whiners got no clue about sc2. These matches was absolutely not an indicate about balance issue but an indicator of a well prepared Goswser. Don´t get me wrong the match up do got some issues. Infestor/broodlords is to strong but how many times in these 3 matches you saw that army composition?

But I understand its easier just to shout balance whines then understanding why Goswser won

And he was seeded into the easiest group in order to get there.

Predictions

HerO 2-3 MarineKingPrime

Comment its really time for MKP to win something again and after the Up/Downs HerO looks a bit more shaky as of late

viOlet 2-3 MC

Comment The Bosstoss is back in Code S. After a long dryspell hes hungry to boost his wallet again

Goswser 3-1 Mvp

Comment Shocker of the tournament? Not really, we all know in what condition Mvp is right now and I doubt he will take this too serious, probably prefers to recover for GSL.

Life 1-3 Leenock

Comment Life is the best player in the world right now, but Leenock is out for revenge and its his turn again to get on top of the Zerg throne. Sounds biased? Hell who doesnt love Leenock...



called, everything so far, now LEENOCK BABY !!!!!

Goswser played very well and deserved to win each game. The last game was closer but Goswser kept on winning the crucial battles.
