You can make one mistake and have absolutely no chance of winning. In BW, there was always a chance to come back, even from multiple mistakes. But I wouldn't say that game was based off of a mistake. Flash simply outplayed him from start to finish. I hate that too: instead of wearing down an opponent now, outplaying him on many levels (micro, macro, harassement) it sometimes occures (a lot of times actually) that i don't pay attention to minimap for 1 sec or someting and lose to a counter allin/doomdrop or whatever although I was so much in front. Maybe this will get figured out the next 5 yrs :D
but then again: I am a bad player so what do I know. Only thing I know it looks the same on the Pro-League streams as well so at least THIS is something that is the same for the Pro-Players

Major seems a bit camera shy lol

You forgot the most important one.
Never base race against MKP (unless you are Mvp).

That way you get different metagame approaches to picking a player for a map, based on what you think your opponent will do etc.
Cool, cool. Thanks everyone.

Of all the nights for Proleague to hit GSL it had to be Stephano vs Bogus night, bah!

Yes, that is true. But there are more of these situations in SC2 compare with BW due to the higher dps, clumped units, miss forcefields, deathballs.

I t was kinda a safe way to seal the deal since he killed 15 probes with proxy cloak banshees and Argo was already behind.

SC2 game pace is very fast and dynamic, so if a game ends because of a misclick or inattention after 20min its kinda, nah! Probably one of the most irritating factors for me as a spectator.
