If any other race got stomped so hard, there would be at least two dozen mad nerds crying imbalance

Should've played Baby as ace (now that I got him out of my anti team :D)
Glad Jin Air won though, hopefully they'll start doing better.

Flash wins, KT loses.

that was a pretty bad match from KT, only Baby looked good. TY is good. When i do not see him. Swear by god, the only match i have seen of his was the one where he got killed by N probe rush from WJS (RIP) Aria (gl).

Send Flash next time please!
The thing is that he almost won anways. It was really close in the end.

I complained about blink allins on Yeonsu during the map testing for that TLMC and none listened to me

I remember that. I on the other hand love blink so I was all for it :D

Great games today, but this series just made me more reluctant to play.
It´s so satisfying to see the top terrans hold these blink and oracle play, but I just can´t enjoy the game knowing that how the TvP match-up is now played. All of those 4 TvP had oracle or blink all-in in them.

Whats the name of the Limp Bizkit Song, that they were playing?

They should've gotten Soulkey instead.

No Flash in ace though. Classic KT is Flash wins, but everyone else loses so it doesn't get to ace match.

While you are right, I still think map diversity is a good thing, and just having re-skins of the same map would also suck, and if you force map makers to stick to loads of perimeters, like not much surface area, big enough main for production, ramp at natural, small ramp to main, accessible but not to easy third, after a while all the maps will boil down to be very similar (it already is actually, i find it (slightly) sad that we can have "one standard strategy for the whole match up doesn't matter what the map is" as I'd prefer the map to determine the strategy more. But this shows the whole balancing problem again as you cannot please everyone!

It's not even that Maru played that great. But Zest played that bad that Maru could have beaten him even if his mouse was unplugged. I'm really disapointed.
Did Maru focused the sentry with the army on the cliff or did Zest just threw them at the cliff ?

Send Flash next time please! this was actually pretty close and with some better decisions (and without the micro fails) Zest could have won.
I don't say could have won I Zest had that game won right before he ran his units into one bunker lost most of his stalkers for it and then lost the advantage he had. He goes into the main he wins, he waits one more warp in round for a critical mass of stalkers he wins, he does anything besides what he did and he wins the game.
