Don't just overtake Artosis' opinion.
Squirtle played really well but he is far from being the best Protoss right now
Haven't you followed the scene the last months? MC handled situations like this far better and in my eyes Parting and Rain are also a level ahead.

Thank god its the last WoL gsl and we won't see this broken comp in hots.

Guess you missed the part where Squirtle transitioned horribly and couldn't spend his bank. It's okay though, understandable that you want to just balance whine blindly.


I'm not whining I'm just stating the obvious. I don't need to prove anything to you after a whole year of raging and whining through the whole community regarding this issue, confirmation from blizz and the most obvious off all the actual results with zergs winning everything with infestor/brood.
Its a commonly known fact.
I'm just glad the meta changed in hots and that crap won't happen in the next seasons.

I don't get the hate on Soulkey--sure he didn't exactly play amazingly, but it was Squirtle who did a stupid all-in in g2 and defended poorly in g3 (letting 3rd get sniped, never pulled off any good harass, never did a pre-BL timing).

what am i reading

Phoenixes got like 10 drone kills total, forced cancel 4th and 5th before SK even had the drones to put them in the new bases. Soulkey's economy was never hurt, he never lost any crucial tech structures. Every Protoss knows that they have to damage Z before they hit the big infestor corruptor broodlord deathball, and Squirtle didn't do it.

And yes the all-in in game 2 was bad.

Whilst BL/Infestor is strong, it's certainly not what it once was, and I actually think late game is quite balanced.

Squirtle just played that poorly. Lost his mothership inexplicably, overcommited to economy harass when Soulkeys army was bearing down on his 4th. Not enough archons for the toilet, should have been a 8/9 kill brood toilet, but they all escaped.

Was hoping for Squirtle / MKP to advance, but Soulkey was completely deserving of his victory.

Believe it or not, teams don't really help their players prepare for GSL. Their working hours are basically for proleague. If anything, Kespa players likely practice LESS for GSL and other individual tournaments than ESF players, who don't have "day jobs."

Practicing Starcraft is Practicing Starcraft no matter the tournament. I realize that there is some strategy that is specialized, but practicing for proleague undoubtably helps them be better prepared for GSL.

Oh FFS, worst argument



Yea, let's ignore all of the protosses strength's and just cry about Zerg's strength, it's not like forcefields are abusive as fuck vs zerg right?

Soulkey killing that BUILT nexus was huge.

The OP zerg combo requires 4 bases/8 gas. Squirtle destroyed the 5th and 6th hatchery over and over.

Woo, Soulkey!

Now if only MKP advances too, I'll be really happy. Squirtle and Symbol are nice too though, so any result is good.

good series


MC vs Curious shows that what you just said is not true


Take one game that Curious played poorly, argue that whole matchup is balanced


Take one game where squirtle played poorly and argue a matchup is imbalanced


... he said after a year of BL/infestor reign


That's why they nerfed infestors and after avoiding late game all costs in PvZ MC goes for a super late game against Curious right after the nerg, why would he do that unless he did not think that BL?infestor is no longer unbeatable?

when half of the proleague maps are totally different from the GSL and you don't prepare icarus/bel shir at all, no.

Tune on the GSL they said. Someone just beat a zerg, they said.

So ye, Zerg loses his fourth base to stray Void Ray? No biggie, just get BL/Infestor.
Zerg gets his fourth base after Protoss gets fifth? No biggie, just get BL/Infestor.
Zerg fails to split his air units? No biggie, BL/Infestor is fogiving.

Yeah I think I'd prefer a non-mirror matchup in the finals. They've been far more entertaining.
