Trying to figure out if the non-KR players stand any chance, more preparation time would definitely favor the Korean players. 2 days long and the non-KR players are fucked equally either way, imo Please every time you predict Stephano to lose he wins. So you might have just jinxed Korea! Thx you  I rate Stephano's chances very highly. His ZvZ prowess is unparallelled in 6 continents. Penguins are very good at ZvZ though, they can beat Stephano any day. Actually, I'm pretty sure my cat can beat Stephano in ZvZ. Is your cat named KANGHO? I've actually taken to calling all my friend's cats LosirA or Kang Ho. They have no fucking clue why.

I mean he was going almost pure rauder/hellbat, wtf is up with that... Just feel you devalued how poor that game was from Luci, he's so much better than that  Yeah fair point. Lucifron played the whole series pretty badly. TLO's play could have been much better. If he had excuted those cheeses like a Korean Lucifron wouldn't have stood a chance. Happy for TLO though. Aye think he must've been trying to play like MVP, but the difference was obviously that the drops obviously went better for MVP and the fact that he was much more in TLOs face, pretty much preventing mutas from coming out.

Wait, double gas cancel is gimmicky now? That's taking advantage of misinformation. Show him 2 gas, cancel when scv leaves. It's your responsibility as a Terran player to scan again later and confirm he still went 2 gas. If anything, that's Lucifron being greedy/lazy for saving a scan for more economy.
TLO won, how he won is irrelevant.

Someone remind me when Symbol vs Innovation was. Also, Shine, Heart, Flying, Line etc. There is plenty of Korean pros who basically cheese in a vast majority of their games.

I dont know why people are saying that TLO "cheesed to win", because only one of the games was a cheese game (and he only won because of playing errors made by his opponent). The other two games were pretty much regular games ... Nydus Worms are a regular option for him after all and taking a shortcut to the opponents base by using a Nydus is a smart choice.

I agree with this sentiment. I've never really followed TLO much since the beta when he was picked up by TL, but as of now you have to admit he's been showing good results.
If TLO can show such games off-form, then he deserves that win. Getting that far into WCS alone should be enough for him to "deserve" the win. Lucifron might be good for one reason or another, whether it be nerves or not being able to adapt to random bullshit, he lost. TLO won.
It's that simple, I'm glad TLO won because he's showing that he has what it takes.

I was hoping Lucifron would win, but let me be clear about this. It doesn't matter in what way you win, even if you use somekind of cheesy strat or an all-in. At the end of the day only winning counts.
TLO just played some good games en caught lucif of guard with some of his strats. Stop complaining about it. Lucifron wil have a next change and we all see that he's one of EU's finest at this moment.
Congrats TLO and keep your head up Lucifron!
