Swagger tries a 7gate attack, but all (like 10) of his proxy pylons get found while building and his probes never survive. He just goes with it and fails. Hilarious.
MKP goes quick 3cc after hellions and cloaked banshee and doesn't scout. RorO decides to roachbane all in, but forgets to build banes despite having the baneling nest. He gets stuck on the ramp despite MKP having no units at home. He kills 20 SCVs but nothing else, and then loses 20 drones on the hellion counter. Then he just dies eventually to biomine.
3 hatch before pool versus forge first but a quick third base into double stargate. Game pretty standard after the openings, but Dear just picks Curious apart with multiple attacks and multitask. Storms rip all of Curious' attempts at attacks and he taps out after a last swing.
WTF. Early robo, late warpgate, late gates. RorO knocks at SangHo's door when he has 2 immortals, a warp prism, a mamacore and nothing else. He repels it but his base is scouted and the YOLOSWAGtrain rolls. It's an immortal zealot all in? No sentries nor stalkers? WTF. RorO rolls over and dies. Huh.
Reactored reapers versus proxy gate. MKP holds the initial attack, but Dear throws down 3 additional gates. MKP holds again and is clearly ahead, but then gets overconfident and salvages a bunker at the ramp for some reason. Dear then just keeps attacking, and MKP bleeds slowly and dies without the bunker. Terrible throw.
10pool baneling by RorO vs hatch first from Curious. Gets a little dicey but Curious holds. RorO gets speed and catches a lot of lings in front of his base, but with queens, evo chamber block and spine crawlers, Curious holds despite falling to an even worker count. RorO ggs after a last attempt because he has no hatch, no production, and no way to get in.
Swagger thinks his swag can pull off a one gate nexus, into robo and 2 gateways. Dear disagrees, and builds a stargate and 2 additional gates after seeing it. He builds oracles instead of voidrays, and with his gateway units, crushes SangHo. gg.
2 base timing by MKP punishes Curious. Curious just falls apart despite getting to mutas without it being scouted, and he can't survive MKP's constant attacks.
Fairly standard game with MKP being aggressive. SangHo overbuilds colossi and also has templar, and it evaporates MKP's army. Nothing MKP can rally can stop SangHo's death push. gg
10pool by Curious, but SangHo decides to gateway expand. He holds it though it gets a little close. Lings get in but do nothing. SangHo decides to do the same Swag Train. Curious knows. He builds roaches. And then dies??? WTF

you want me to stop telling the truth?
"ok"
the "truth" is Leenock made 9 Code S seasons in a row and OSL lol
9 GSL Code S + 1 OSL Code S
I am not a math major or anything but I think (not sure though and don't have a good source) 9+1 = 10
OSL isnt code s though
Oh sorry, will fix it.
Leenock did 8 seasons GSL Code S + 2 WCS Premier leagues.
DRG did 8 seasons GSL Code S + 1 WCS Premier league (then dropped and lost his streak) and then got into WCS Premier league again.
Why would DRGs Primier leagues be different from Leenocks?
Then again you obviously seem to hate Leenock so idk why I even bother. I am happy DRG made it and I hope MKP does it as well. I think all 3 deserve the award because they've been at the top for so long.

GSL Code S is the name of the tournament hosted by GomTV. OSL is hosted by OnGameNet. You have to win 10 GSL Code S in a row to win. Winning 9 GSL Code S and an OSL doesn't count because guess what, OSL is not GSL Code S.
You might not like it but that's how GomTV set their criteria so don't complain to us.

Bad analogy it would be more like:
Playing in the Football League Championship (level 2 in UK soccer) and qualify for Premier league (level 1). But then end up in La Liga (Spains premier league).
Leenock played in GOMs up and down. Qualified to Code S. And then ended up in OSL.

No I am saying that if you qualify for Premier league you probably want to play in Premier league and not in La Liga.

No it's not a totally different issue, it's what happened?
Qualify through level 2 -> level 1. But then end up in a totally different league.
If the Fotball / Soccer commitee chose to make whoever qualified through the Football League Championship got into La Liga instead of premier league that's exactly how it would have been.
In the end Leenock just got fucked by higher powers. As in your own words, OSL just hijacked Code S. The only player who will have played 10 seasons in a row and not get rewarded for it.
If you would count months of top level: Leenock was in Code S for 22months (you can make it 20 if you want to remove WCS Season 2, still more than Nestea)
Mvp did it for 20months in a row
Nestea was in Code S for 19months when he got the award. (He did another season after)
Also note that Leenock did it through another game into HotS which is also increases the difficulty level.
In the end he has been more consistant than Nestea. And the Nestea award is an award for consistancy. Fuck logic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Who cares about what he has done compare to Nestea, Nestea award is "Participate In 10 consecutive code S", not some other vague definition which may or may not suggest someone as more deserving. It's a "Yes"/"No" question and not something that's debated. If you want a reward for "consistency" or "participate in 10 straight premier league seasons", then create such an award but don't make Nestea award something it's not and never meant to be.

OnGameNet is not GOMTV
It's a shame, but its pretty clear.
It's like calling IPL and MLG the same thing.
More like calling WCS NA season 1 (held by MLG) and WCS NA season 2 (held by NASL) the same tournament.
Does MLG call WCS NA season 1 MLG? No Does NASL call WCS NA season 2 NASL? No Does GOM call WCS KR season 1 GSL? Yes Does OnGameNet call WCS KR season 2 OSL? Yes
Why are you trying to arbitrarily define things but without the power to do so when they already arbitrarily defined things within their power?

Because they wanted to keep their names yes, but in the end both are WCS Korea. Oh well that is not rly my point.
Still my point is: IF Blizzard had not decided to make the WCS system, or even delay it ONE season. Leenock would have gotten the award. I don't see how you can argue with that? And that means he got fucked by powers he could not prevent.
He did it 10 seasons in a row. And the last time I checked 10 = 10. (this might be out of date + I dont have a reliable source for 10 = 10. If recent math studies has proven that 10 = 9 I guess I will accept defeat in the argument)
It's obvious that this blatant Leenock fanboy won't shut up about this until everyone else does. Just stop replying to him and he won't annoy you about it any more.

It's not like you have to read if you don't want to. Also why so hostile?
So people can't have opinions and argue for them? As long as it stays civil I don't really see the problem?
What if Obama had the same attitude as you. "Blatant opposite party fan so I guess I will stop replying to him until he won't annoy me anymore."
Please MKP, I will root for you while I lay asleep at night, within my dreams. And when I watch the VOD's tomorrow I will see your victorious smile after getting the Nestea award.

Your point is an "IF" scenario? Those are literally the most irrelevent scenarios. I've never seen someone so upset over something as minut. You've been bitching about this for days. Get over it, it's not going to change. You complaining to people on TL forums isn't going to make him get a novelty title.
There was a time when this group would almost seem like a walkover for MKP, but the way he has been playing lately...makes me nervous. Hopefully he has familiarized himself with bio/mine TvZ and we can see something great. I think Curious and Roro should beat SangHo and Dear; so, those TvZ games are going to be important.

Because he is a blind fanboy in the throes of nerd rage. Arguing with him is pointless.
I don't care who you guys want to see in Code S next season, you all should cheer for MarineKing to get out of this group. A win here means he gets his Nestea Award with DRG next season.
Like him or not, you guys have to admit that he deserves this award.

Only real opener I would call greedy these days in this match up is 3 CC and 1 Rax.
Roro coulda had the roaches stay at the front and zone out the hellions while the lings went ot town on the scv's. I can't believe that attack did so little dmg completely unscouted and with 0 defense.

think curious transitioning OUT of hydras and into mass roach to get more infestors might have made this a little bit less one sided. hydras just aren't fast or durable enough to fight zealots backed by psi storm
edit: well thats what he did but he realized too late, he built too many hydras anticipating dear would continue air production when he just went straight for storm

I think in the end what killed curious was that he threw away that many units at Dear's third. He just didnt have the numbers back home to defend from Dear's own attack which at point had him down to only a single functioning hatchery.
i think curious tried to cover all his bases with that semi-big roach attack while taking a fourth. i guess he thought he could afford on the back of his greedy opening. after his attack fell short dear easily dispatched him. disappoint!
edit: i hope dear pulls out the same style vs roro, interesting to see how roro will cope.

It's still a pretty common complaint, I see it all the time.
Then it is just a baseless whining of idiots. Like every PvZ I saw from actually good PvZ players (like Trap for example, who is fucking beast in that matchup) involved getting a 3rd base.

yeah that definitely didn't help. i think he overbuilt roaches in that attack, as well. curious killed all of dear's ground army with his force that was already in position to attack, the reason dear was even ready to defend was curious had a bunch of roaches in front of his natural, tipping dear off. if those roaches at the natural had been upgrades and tech, might not have lost all his shit to zealots lol

Oh dear. (pun intended) You don't see all those chee-tosses in every tournament? Betting their tournament lives on a single proxy pylon?
not really. But if you are talking about inferior players (like most foreigners), then maybe.
That's cool then. I share your opinion on how to evaluate players. It's just that there are so many nonsensical people here talking as if toss cannot compete without cheeses. Hope you shut them up whenever you see them.

I'm starting to get a feeling that Roro and Sniper might have won their GSL titles because Zerg was terribly imbalanced and the Blizzard balance team throwing WoL in a trash can the final five months of its existence.

That's a strong statement, but somehow I can see how you would come to that conclusion. Maybe we need to launch an investigative team on the matter?

I have a feeling that Sniper was the sparring partner of Killer for that build.

meh, it's more because some players excel in infestor usage. a lot of the T/P pre hive push would kill zerg who aren't amazing at using infestors.

This is why Terrans need the ability to expand inside their base. If MKP took an expansion on the ground - it would have been shut down hard - even if he didn't salvage his bunker.

Nope, it was already sad last season when he dropped out. The nestea award is meaningless when he already missed last season, cause it's supposed to be 10 in a row. I don't care if it was osl this season. It still counts in my mind.

RorO on the other hand is gonna become exactly the same player as he was in BW - you don't want him on your antiteam, cause he WILL win games, but he will never win anything big again. I am fine with that, as lon as JangBi sucks all the power out of all the other Khan members and wins ALL THE TOURNAMENTS.

8 ovi is not a big deal if you pay attention to your drones at the start. you barely avoid 3 idling larvae and you get to start your eleventh drone just as you have enough minerals.

curious shot himself in the foot when he made mutas. making the spire is... okayish the mutas were definitely not okay after everything he scouted. he should have just gone into double evo and a macro hatch when he saw the barracks pressure and late gases.
also didnt help he flew his tiny muta flock through the middle where the watchtowers saw them

In a world of bio/mine, MKP should be unbeatable in TvZ. That is a composition almost custom made for his skill set. He was playing (and winning) with bio/hellion in WoL, already.

His TvZ has been going pretty well overall, though. His other matchups definitely declined in HoTS

hmm I'll take your word for it. I just don't hear much about him nowadays. A shame since I loved his micro in WoL.

his bioball and vikings were on the opposite side of the crevasse between killer's 3rd and natural, his biology fought 6 collosus while his vikings were on the side of the stalkers

this. His bio got stuck fight the 6 colossi ad eating a lot of damage while the vikings were all the way to the left getting targetted by colossi. That and he needed more vikings imo.

It was late because storms were out but I could see him winning that fight with better positioning.

From poster tim19900927, "God put the gear position Pose a variety of dry lightning chase Vikings Lightning is also very good shot TIMING MKP dish is too difficult to?"
swagger i think did a less than optimal transition. he went late charge > blink > templar instead of going charge > right into templar or at least blink > charge > templar. he basically gave MKP a huge window to crush with critical viking count before storm finished researching.
swagger's saving grace was that he kept building colossus so he had like 6, but MKP should have been able to out position that army with vikings, and drops. but MKP just derped and lost all his vikings while only killing like one colossus. then he missed the timing to go in before storm finished researching, so he just walked into a wall of forcefields, time warps and storms.

I hope you're not insulted. My comment was to be seen in a positive light. You're a MarineKing fanboy, but are extremely helpful in the community and generally a good guy who gets along with everyone.
Canucklehead or whatever he called just bitches, moans, and whines in almost 90% of his posts. The only two things you have in common is that he also gushes over MarineKing.
marineking has grown up now. he has lost his child-like love for this game .. or has he? He showed a lot of fight and he seems calm and composed. He is already imagine training! THIS IS IT! MARINE KING!

No Nestea award for MKP

No SangHo beat the two other guys in the tie-breaker and only one of them could advance.

honestly i think it was
the game really summed up the current state of the game that no two other combination of pros could have.
2011 mkp, the king of my heart, my inspiration to play terran in wol, would have never lost to mvp fucking swagger
this game marks the death of mkp. the best game of the year.
before he was on the winning side vs kyrix...
no he is on the other. literally and figureatively
If this was two years ago, he would have been rolling on the floor crying and needing assistance out of the booth. He should just go the Mvp/MC route next season and go to Europe.

How often do you see a Terran die to a 10-gate?
Yup, this game is pretty much one in a million.
all the time in masters/plat/anything like that
I believe he means in pro games lol
Sad that MKP lost and worst of all to a 10 gate ><

It won't work against Innovation and that's the point you can criticize Swagger.
In other news, I played my first non-offrace game on the NA ladder yesterday. I beat a diamond zerg by killing his hatch first drone with my scouting probe

i don't think mkp has the money/motivation to do even that. hanging around in code A making a few hundred might actually be more money than a top8 in europe or something which is probably the best he can do considering current skill + how many protosses there are overseas

What ? Ok he used his swag train build twice, but this build is so awesome that he had no reason not to. All the other builds were different and unusual.
Avilo has been saying for months now (since HotS release) that 10 gate is difficult to stop if you don't know it's coming and don't already have the right build that will counter it.

a lot of builds are hard to stop if you don't know it's coming, plus it's avilo lol
mkp deserved that loss for playing badly not because of 10gate imba or something

Nothing really works vs Bogus anyway. Swagger's weird builds might have a few percent of chances to take him off guard at least. More chances than a standard play from a standard level korean GM imo.

It won't work against Innovation and that's the point you can criticize Swagger.

You still play SC2? lololol
Considering how hardcore and edgy I am I can get challenged to grudge matches any second. Gotta be ready to smack em down

Nothing really works vs Bogus anyway.
Nothing except for Prime cuts of cheddar.
That's not my whole post though.
Maru actually showed that original and cheesy builds are the most likely to work on Bogus. At least for now. Still it doesn't mean it will work too often though.

trolling
Keep in mind a game doesn't have to feature the best play to be considered great.

Swagger = MVPKiller = SangHo
Been around FOREVER, not some random toss
This. He's been in code S a few times before too. I don't think he ever got past RO16 though (I remember he was the only protoss in the RO16 of one season in 2011, back in the GOM TvT days.

And I was mentioning that he made it past Ro16 once.
But then he lost to InCa :[
Yeah thx Oh I was looking at this GSL october 2011, I didn't remember but he actually got to RO16 through a group with DRG, Taeja and Polt where the 2 terrans were eliminated, in a period when terrans were really favored. I know Sangho can be really bad sometimes, but when he plays well like today he's actually quite scary.

He was actually teh only protoss to beat Polt during Polt's 100% win vs toss
Haha, what the hell. Swagger?! Think I'm gonna take a shower, poor* myself a cup of coffee and then look at the results again because that just can't be right. :D
*no I'm not correcting that and yes the results are the same
MVP doing pretty well suddenly, 5 players in code S.. Didn't expect that as i would favor none of DRG, Keen, Super, Dream and Swagger beforehand to even make it.

As far as I remember he's never been the only protoss back then...it was always him and huk.

wow, wtf is this comment? Random people constantly posting dumb posts.
cant really blame him thou, no one really should have the need to follow how many stupid ids sangho has ~~ (he is such an idiot for changing his id every 3 minutes or so..)
pretty good showing of mkp, would ve thought he doesnt take a single game
1 game away from the nestea award...the guy that has had like top 5 TvP for the entirety of Sc2 and he doesnt win a single TvP...it is so hard to believe in mkp these days ='( and no chance at the world finals now. What is even the point of Code A this season anyway =/

Went through Liquipedia, and as far as I can tell only the GSL Open Season 1 of 2010 had a Protoss plurality :O The GSL World Championship in 2011 that Mvp won was 6P 4T 6Z. As for pure Code S, it seems Protoss was never the most represented.
Even this season doesn't guarantee that just yet, the distribution being 10P 10T 8Z with 4 players to go.
Whoops, nvm! Liquipedia not fully updated there yet.

NesTea, Mvp, DongRaeGu.
Is the nestea award for 10 code s seasons in a row or just get there 10 times eventually? if it dosn't have to be on a row it's just a matter of time before a player like MKP gets it I guess.

Then we'd have a lot more NesTea awards and it would be called differently, I think.

They should hold this code A at the start of next year, officially make code A to be part of next season from now on, rather than current season.
