I didnt see the whole game but I saw he was already up to BC raven and it seems like zerg has a lot of trouble dealing with that. once you get a considerable count of both you can kind of put the other supply into whatever so I guess he just put it all in widow mines for fun

A quick recap then from when I opened up the stream: Z has BL-Corruptor-Hydra against Viking-Raven-Mine and gets seekered to death, letting the Vikings to clean up the air. Hydras reign supreme on the next wave of larvae spawn, with about 25 of them running around, only to have them all get blown up on a few seekers and tons of mines that were being made 17 at a time in places, and later about 8 with Vikings and Ravens. Had Z been a bit more careful, he probably could have done a ton more damage due to Hydras much better range and hindered T's ability to get to BC. Once it's up to BC, it's all over.

quite a disappointment EG forfeited =/ I felt it was a easier route than last nights games. plus games would probably of been played on NA as well so they helps the players who are in NA

Really strange for EG to forfeit, I know a lot of their players are at PAX East or in Korea but they have at least Thorzain and Suppy available...

Maybe coach park didnt want them to play because they already tried last night and it might be cutting into practice time? Just a theory for the Korean players. I know he was trying to be more structured in their daily regiment.

so i just asked Thorzain on stream why they've forfeited and he didnt even know about it but he said its probably because the EG players are at pax east at the moment.
but still doesnt explain why hes playing ladder instead of all-killing some teams..
Because it looks bad to field a team of two guys? Have you considered that the Korean guys couldn't play?[/QUOTE]
No it looks incredibly awesome to qualify even though you only have 2 players available. The qualifier startet at 6 am korean time, but its not an insurmountable obstacle to stand up early once. Honestly.. thorzain could have probably all killed the team in the first round and buy some time for the korean players to stand up. its 9 o clock korean time now.

I don't think Coach Park has that big of an effect on Thorzain or Suppy as they're not in Korea because they wouldn't be "training" with EG Korea.
They also have Machine available too. HuK..... I have no idea where he went after MLG.

Oh I didnt realize Thorzain was at the US EG house. I thought he might have gone back already

Thorzain was in Arizona as of last night. Dunno about now. Machine went to PAX as far as I know.

Mm I considered that. But playing a few games online in a tournament situation isn't exactly bad practice, I imagine it was more a server issue. Revival, JYP and Jaedong were all used before so he must have said it was okay at some point.
