Good place to be atm, cheering for everyone left in the bracket. Never been a fan of Hyun but with the crap that went down with no salary and all that jazz he gets a "good for you kid" if he claims the spot.

I seriously doubt that Soulkey and his ilk won't have worked on this style considering the amount of Protoss in GSL atm. The horror is just beginning

I can see it in my mind. Soulkey playing SH turtle at 700 APM, microing individual locusts all over the map to target down zealots and move around forcefields to snipe a sentry every third wave, abducting probes and chain fungaling anything that moves onto creep. It will be glorious.


God damn it. Parting Soul Train this fool.

My wish for GSL this year: 14 toss and 2 zergs, ZvZ finals with every game from Ro16 an onwards being mass SH turtle. The fall out would be better than any game of starcraft could ever be.


Imbalance whine, sc2 dehd cries, and perhaps another satirical article from Ver is better than any game of starcraft?

You've got a weird taste.

I was 100% serious about everything I've ever said on the internet, so yes.

Still though, the community outrage would be funny. I actually think something like that happening could seriously damage the game. As much as we complain about bad marketing, lack of incentives for casuals on blah blah bah, if the gameplay degenerates into shit, none of that will matter.

You don't like watching free units waddling awkwardly into lazors for 75 minutes!?! What do you think this is supposed to be, FUN?!?!

only bad zergs play like that.
only bad protosses lose to that.

Define bad. Stepho does fine on EU GM with that style. If by bad you mean not top 15-20, then sure.

Yeah, I specifically meant someone like Stephano, Firecake and all the others. They would lose to someone like Myungsik, eMotion or Trend in no time with that. And those are not A-teamers.

He's part-time now I guess, but Stephano is a pretty damn solid player and above all strategically intelligent. I think you're doing him a disservice by making out like he's below every Korean B-teamer

Yeah but as you say he is part time.
I also only said they would rip that turtle style of theirs apart, not that they are generally better.
I mean, there IS a reason why no one in Korea is doing that.

Yeah, Koreans tend to be strangely slow in actually developing styles like these. Infestor abuse, Infestor/BL turtling and all I saw the NA and EU players experimenting and refining those well in advance of the majority of Korean Zergs.

Koreans obviously have the edge with execution and refinement, but they don't develop every strategical idea or style in the game

People in Korea are doing it, just not in GSL playoffs and PL. You are right that in the elite layer of Korean SC2, protoss players know how to stop this. That's a really small part of SC2 though.

The cycle of strategies being used by Europeans, refined by Koreans and used on unsuspecting North Americans.

Even with no eyeballs and just small underground tournaments I would still watch SC2 10 years later if the gameplay was wicked but have never cared for things "just 'cause everyone watches it".
