if you have ever watched tajea's stream during which hes beaten shit out by tosses lately, you wouldnt count him, bomber？ it depends on who will he face, jjakji, no way

totally the same
Maybe people are negative for a reason? You didnt just watch your favourite player go out to bs...

INnoVation 
hate Protoss >_<

Well, i think Ryung and Supernova should qualify (though i though the same about Inno), at least there should be "some" terrans in code s, right?.

Well when he does builds against obvious Blink all-ins like 1 reactor 1 tech lab He shouldn't be expected to hold that stuff off. It's pretty much known now that you need at least 3 rax opening to hold off a strong blink all-in, especially on maps it is favored on. And Zest did a sneaky move by basically avoiding all the bunkers by going around the back on Polar Night, so 4 bunkers he placed were useless in the defense, so it was basically doomed from the start, but it's amazing he held on as long as he did really. I duno it just didn't seem like Innovation has his usual stuff during these matches. I mean he was 8-0 against herO before this series, so you gotta give herO some credit he played a good series.

weelll I guess I'll focus on ProLeague. One of the problems with an elimination tournament is that sometimes you end up with this.

Id say there are quite a few fan favourites in code S, whether the game is balanced or not
Edit: I mean I wouldn't for example mind watching something that happened to end up being a terran only tournament if there were players like Mvp, Bomber etc

Again: Jjakji would have a spot GUARANTEED, he just gave it up to play overseas. That's why I count him :-P
He wouldn't even have had to play in Code A, he HAD a spot for sure.

Some of the PvP yes, inno vs. hero map 2 aswell. The rest I wouldnt bother

I think something has to be done to Time Warp, it literally eliminates any micro potential for the opposing player and makes Blink Stalker all-ins that much better. Especially with the way maps are forced into construction because of FF already, it makes it almost impossible to hold a natural expansion without overcommitting. I just don't think it's that necessary to have. or maybe make the slow effect not as much, and make it last way shorter duration. something has to be done to that ability imo.

GomXp, if you read this forum, please, pleaaaase show only matches and not sets on twitch (cf : proleague), beauce there are way too many spoilers now. Just show "match 1" with all the sets in the same video, please !

Don't think they'll do this since they want set 1 of each match to be available to non-subscribers.

Omg Innovation lost so bad. His play wasn't top notch, but god this MU is broken. I mean the toss can be economically as aggressive as he wants thanks to the MC, but he also has a great offensive option. If a T plays greedy he can easily be sanctioned, but if he doesn't it's just all right for the P who gets ahead.
Either the T players must find out something (less gimmicky than proxy thor @Happy vs Tod), or Blizz has to seriously fix the MC. But it's seriously wrong now.

Map 2 of Inno vs herO was very good. Worth watching imo.

Aw man, I couldn't stay awake anymore after Stork won his first series and now he's out. Didn't expect him to advance mind you, but still would have been great to see him in premiere =\.

How is the vod system on twitch? Is it spoiler-free, or do you have to cover the images and not read titles?
