Is there a chinese stream for the chinese audience?

Would like to see HyuN build Vipers now, Skytoss and Colossi are going to overwhelm him soon.
Lost his Hive, never mind.

Sounds a plan. Alternatively I might just write some terrible fan fiction and hope to achieve financial success akin to Fifty Shades of Grey. If nothing else the Starcraft universe being populated by three distinct races may allow for incredibly sexually transgressive material.

hyun being really passive and letting daisy getting half the map as well as a powerful 200 army with colossus templar and air
should have done more with swarm hosts and drops.

Iaguz ahead in most ways. The break when Polt's army was split in half and the mass drop were good moves.
