I'd buy him a Nestea.

I never really was into qxc, but his analysis in this tournament has really impressed me. Hope he does this more in the future.

Are people still just speculating about a Code S seed or has something been announced that I missed?

There is a lot more to mechanics than just raw APM.

I love QXC. He should be a caster/analyst at EVERY tournament, period.


Agreed. I feel like QXC brings the same visibly intense passion that Artosis does. I also really like Jorosar, he doesn't have the game knowledge but he is a very eloquent speaker. Overall IEM has really stepped it up with the analysis table! Great tournament.

I like how you make a difference between macro and mechanics, yet think that mechanics = APM.

APM alone is not mechanics.

Even though MVP lost this game, his plan in this game was absolutely brilliant. So much respect for him here.

He knew he was behind, so instead of just playing from behind against such a good player and most likely just having his opponents lead spiral out of control, he went for a low econ marine build.

No, and this is what I don't understand; he chose to stay on 45 SCVs when the game was perfectly even and nothing was decided yet.

? He would be dead if he hadn't kept making pure marines (and no scvs) to compensate for the lucky mine hit from Yoda.

Mvp showed many brilliant plays in this tournament, it's really sad to see him lose, but I guess his time on the spolight Yoda deserves.

Would have to watch the game again to confirm but I think his decision to cut SCVs at 45 was made before the drop landed.

I think Mvp tried to do the same thing as in the Cloud Kingdom game. Both start with the same build order i. e. Reaper Reaper CC fact but Mvp knows that YoDa likes to go for some kind of drop (Hellions or Mines) before his Marines/Medivac transition, so he uses the same build order which gives him slightly earlier Medivacs, and he cuts SCVs to focus on units and tries to inflict heavy damage in this window. In the Cloud Kingdom it perfectly worked as he killed YoDa without further ceremony, but in this game his plan went kaput because of the two mines and the Turret slaughtering the first dual drop.

Yonghwa has lost just one game this entire tournament.

Nice thing for Yoda, this guy has about 5000$~ in total prize money earnings = Very big win for Yoda.

As they have yet to announce it and this tournament is being held for HotS it would make sense for the last seed to be the winner of this tournament. Not confirmed but logical speculation.
