GSL has barely any downtime, what is Shinta talking about? lol


Fuck bathroom or food breaks.

Make Tastosis talk for a full 6 hours straight without food or water. Let them kill their voices. Legend has to take a piss? He is casting while on the toilet right now you fools. He has a cup incase the toilet gets clogged.

They don't even get paid, they are casting with guns to the sides of the cameras right now pointed at their heads.

Oh, and whoever loses the game gets their booth filled with water until they escape or drown. GSL, where you do never take a break or you die.
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

I haven't been able to take Fion seriously since the "monster that is EG-TL #1 Proleague team" article.


At the time, they had by far the best results in terms of SC2. KesPA was lagging behind except for a select few, so I thought they'd do better off the information I had.

The monster will be unleashed someday. Maybe not this year, or the next, or even during the lifetime of SC2, but one day the monster will be unleashed.

Innovation/Symbol went pretty much how I predicted. Thought Innovation would take it in a close 3-2 series, but it really was a toss-up. People undervalued Symbol too much.


The monster is unleashed, in the old times "monsters" refereed to big elephants, ELEPHANTS!


Most of the Proleague teams have been trash this season. The only monster is Woongjin.

Even though I'm on the opposite side of predictions, I still defend most of them. EG-TL should have done better out of the gate than they did. They seem like a total mess at this point, and the worst case scenario came true.

There are only two predictions I cannot defend: picking TOP to beat Mvp during the August GSL finals, and picking SlayersBrown to win his Code S group back at the start of 2012.


It's pretty hard to take the predictions seriously, when most of the kespa players have been consistently undervalued in both Code S and Code A.

Symbols strat failed the moment innovation had a marine in place at symbols original nydus spot, but innovation counter-failed so hard when he missed the natural nydus right under his nose. Innovation will be kicking himself for losing this!

No, the Nydus out the front of his main. Allowed him to push both the main and the backdoor at the same time, and reinforce from the front of the main as he pushed from the natural.

I agree it turned out well, but I just can't wrap my head around that nydus in the natural; he placed it before he started attacking. He gambled on innovation not seeing it, 9 out of 10 times he will see it!

Aha I remember watching those matches. I mostly remember Tastosis referring to Brown as "a player who doesn't really stand out at all in terms of playstyle. Kinda boring, like the color Brown" or quote to that effect. Oddly enough, that lack of uniqueness description was enough to make him always stand out in my mind.

I don't see how people can simultaneously bash your EG-TL prediction article and the Elephant in the Room article.

Either KesPA players are monsters that multiple tournament winners like HerO, Taeja, and Stephano will never beat or they're overrated and will never win anything. You can't have it both ways.

There's also the possibilities that both parties are "bad". Anyhow proleague have some funky maps (which I love alot imo, drives alot of high early and mid game aggressions), so EG-TL can be not used to them


Given that 4 of the GSL RO8 are KesPa (and 3 of them are pure KesPa unlike Parting who's former ESF), I think it's hard to argue that KesPa can't play. Plus some of the old stalwarts are looking very good.

Didn't Fantasy miss Code S purely by weird placing mechanics? Or was it Flash?
I'm not bad at Starcraft; I just think winning's rude.

yeah. I can't believe they only have Vestige with an 80% win rate in ZvP and Neo Planet S with a 60% win rate in their favor.

Hey man, I'm sure if everyone's predictions here were recorded there would be a large number of exposed pelicans in these LR threads.

It is clear that symbol came into every game today with his own gameplan. He was not reacting to what innovation is doing, he was executing his builds. Every game some super aggressive but not standard push, instead of standard passive play. It was the right idea and he capitalized on it fully. But to consider him as a superior player in general is kind of a stretch.


LOL there are literally, ZERO, and i mean ZERO people saying that Symbol is a superior player in general. At least I don't see anyone trash talking in that direction, mostly the thread is saying that it was a close series that Symbol closed out, with the occasional haters popping more from the Innovation fanclub.
If we fear what we do not understand, then why is ignorance bliss?

Nyddus build are pretty gimmicky, which means not the kind of thing you do against some random guy on ladder but to someone you prepare against, they are pretty strong.

its ok to bet on your opponent's mistakes. I bet main reason symbol did nydus at 5th game because he knows innovation will be mentally exhausted and more prone to mistakes.

Not killing the nydus, not focusing the nydus, not popping up more barracks and not building bunkers. Those are prime mistakes
