hyun is a kespa player. He was an A-team broodwar player for MBC Game. You should watch his game vs flash on matchpoint.

imo for bigger events new people shouldn't make the freaking OPs, it's not some glory thing but it's quite a ton of work, if you want to learn how to then championship bracket day is not the day. do some small GSTL or SPL thing or something Not GSTL or SPL either please, never updating OP with VOD links has become a plague, even with old TL members :/
The solution is to keep enslaving opterown obviously.

Did you manage to catch game 1?
haha yeah i woke up in time for the first game of the finals :D lots to catch up on!

Did anyone else see that person in the front row with the new Team Liquid jersey on about a couple of minutes ago? I thought those weren't on sale yet. Was that a TL staff?

Doesn't help if the event thread is 15 poll posts and no LR or other activity.

Looks like MLG borrowed OGN's computers

I really hope that some of these BM players place more attention to their image because they are technically putting a road block in their career. Constant BM will generate a lot of attention and is great at attracting a large amount of fans over a short period of time. But look a bit further down the road, no major sponsors will want to associate their brand with any negative contents. You are sacrificing a future for a shortcut to get more fans. This is just a slow spiral to the bottom because to satisfy that (large) proportion of your fans, you might need to keep BMing, forever. Is this what you really want to be remember as?
Just look at the recent progamer example. Sure he still have 9k viewer every time he stream, but before the whole incident he had 9k viewer, a job, a lovely rented apartment, a team of people working hard to develop him as a player, and a bright future. It's sad to say that there is a good chance that he will never get another sponsorship from a major brand because a simple search on the internet is probably enough to discourage any potential offers. And he is probably not even aware that his image other major SC country like China is just as bad if not worst, that is because their sites has been associating the words BM with his name every time he comes up in their article.
So if you really want to proceed down the path of pro SC2 player, my word of advice is do not go down the BM path.

Yeah, I kinda like bo5 as well. DreamHack uses it nowadays as well
bo7 is fine for GSL finals since it's the only match. But watching 8hours of starcraft into a bo7 is quite a lot.

hey high level zergies: how do you best deal with that style? i've never been good at it and i'm wondering what you guys think.
The unit comp Hyun went for didn't really let him stop Polt from establishing 4 bases easily, especially since it was Akilon. If Hyun went heavy mutalingbane he could put on much more pressure on Polt's economy, as once the muta count gets high, they can harass very easily. Once terran gets that ultimate unit comp though, theres not much zerg can do D:

Its funny to watch how zergs are trying to counter air with Queens, arent they supposted to hug hatcheries? Queens are multi purpose. They are good. Even great considering it is a 150 mineral caster that costs no gas. But to expect to win against BC raven army? No, that would be stupidly broken (and that first fight was very close because of those transfuses, bio helped a lot there)
Sure, if Zergs really think that, then they are probably the minority. I cant imagine Zergs making the argument that queens should counter Terran T3 air.

It's only too long when there are these huge breaks between games. SIGH

Most of the Koreans (except for younger guys) at some point played for a KeSPA team. That's not really what he meant though.
