Are we expecting the new kids on the block to come in and wreck all the experienced teams? I figured it would take a season or two to get into the groove.
Maybe I just don't have ridiculously idiotic standards though... EG-TL's the most experienced team when it comes to what actually matters, playing SC2. If anything the Kespa teams are just going to dominate harder as they catch up in HotS.

I think it's just that they've got a lot more experience with Sc2 than the Kespa teams and have a lineup of multiple champions.

Well other then letting his orbitals die of course which is obviously huge 
that contain and pylon block rly set bong behind. flash got his exp up faster and confirmed bong's expo with his marine, all he needed to do was play defencive and he would have gone into the middgame with a pretty significant econ lead(bong wasnt chronoing probes aswell). and playing defencive from that spot is very easy, u just sit in the middle and then back off + add bunks once u see protoss moving out

all other CJ players +1

Really wish that Flash would just scan and play a standard game more. :-/ He really shouldn't be losing to these players.

i dont even understand what prompted him to move his units out like that. he certainly didnt want to base trade because thats completely retarded in that situation. his indecision made that evident, once he saw bong's army moving out he moved his units back towards his base for a sec but then decided to attack.. the only thing i can think of is that he wanted to hit a big 2-4 medi timing due to the lack of econ bong had, i think he just wanted to hide a part of his army so that bong would underestimate his push, maybe make less sentrys or chrono more probes etc etc. seems like a pretty dumb thing to do once u see ur opponent opening with an immo exp build cuz they just end up pushing the majority of the time, dunno tbh

SonGDuRi > Barracks - This one was up to grab as nobody know how both of they would do. The CJ player was the more experienced one. Hydra > Carno - Stats has trouble with PvZ while Hydra has the best vP game with a 10-2 (9-2 before the game) record. EffOrt > Action - Action is actually (more precisely was in R1) a zerg sniper. And while EffOrt hasn't the best record in this category, Action is riding a 5 games (4 before the game) losing streak. Bong > Flash - Bong made a big splash last round but failed to continue in this one up until now. Though Flash was the favorite, Bong isn't bad either.

Those Kespa guys must be expected to be really slow learners when after 1year of official training and another 1 year of very accurate rumours and signs (new Kespa computers, barcode ladder invasion, Nestea tutoring Kespa players in SC2 etc etc) people still need to make excuses for any bad showing.

Well, KT is even worse than EGTL in round 3. Quite hard to believe

Look like you completely misunderstood him. He's saying that Kespa already dominating in WOL, the game where most EG-TL players played for years compare to the new KESPA players. With HOTS coming, it's even playing field as it is new to everybody, KESPA might dominate even more.

You do realize that he is playing/preparing for GSL for a code S spot at the moment right? If any of you know him from BW, his PL performances tended to dip (just like mosts) when hes deep in an individual league.

Really? I was under the impression that GSL didn't matter that much to KeSPA players and that they prioritize PL over anything else at the moment.

That's what the KeSPA fans tend to say, and it is also what many players say in interviews. I, from a strictly personal perspective, find it hard to believe. But who knows - it's not like the players could say "Yeah I care more about my individual league performances than I do about Proleague because fuck my team", right? So it's all just pretty much speculation or excuses.

You must be high if you think Kespa's been training for 2 years. They only started playing hybrid proleague about 9 months ago and looked very new to the game at the time.
