Nube q: is medivac heal upgrade (in some form) still around?


Yep, but heavliy nerfed. Don't change the rate of healing, just lowers the energy cost per hit point.

Have IM been really cramming in the HoTS practice recently? They really seem to have a certain familiarity and poise with it, compared to some of the other players who seem to be vaguely improvising.


LG-IM had the misfortune of most of their players dropping to Code B, including First, Mvp and Seed, also most of their players finished their Code S obligations quite early (apart from YongHwa), so they had a lot of time to practice HoTS and share builds and information with each other.

Protoss will probably get really good with the msc.

Yes, this was the sad period in which they were without the cooking of the IM coach's wife. The source of the their strength. She was sick =/

stephano this week.

HuK before..

Stephano wasn't an up/down seed, he dropped from Code S and moved back up through up/downs, I thought Huk was the same? Might be wrong ofc.

I meant that Mana got an Up/Down seed, and actually advanced in an era were few foreigners are even winning a single series in Code A

RET. YEAH BUDDY.

First hots tournament. Four protoss, two Terran, two zerg. When you consider the proportion of top tier protoss even in the tourny was higher than the others (I believe) this is pretty damn reasonably balanced.

Edit: 8P, 10Z, 6T entered. Personally if you look at the players though, 6 of those protoss are top tier (I did include mana. He's really good at his best) and only 4-5 of the zerg are. So even though more entered, I don't think many people would have given xlord many chances.

It's really weird to see unit that called itself "mothership" go raiding enemy base alone like that.
