I would rate TY a lot higher than the players you mentioned but he was 0-x repeatedly by mid-level/code B protosses.
Saying that YongHwa is Code B Protoss is somewhat ridiculous though.
Now i even hope that he will 4-0d group with Life and Dear, lols.

Where are the VODs? Why does GOM take so long to put them up. They could learn a thing from Proleague. I paid $5.00 for Proleague and get instant VODs. I paid $80 for GOMTV and the VODs take forever... They used to be very quick with VODs when they had their own VOD system, but now they use twitch.
Twitch is fine for VODs, mainly because you can look at "past broadcasts" and stream the whole 3-4 hour set all at once, it's wonderful.
Only downside is the permanently-visible progress bar at the bottom. DAMN YOUUU

sometimes twitch VODs take ages to load, plus there's also spoiler issues

I love Yonghwa. But right now by performance, he is probably mid-tier(Code B is a bit harsh). There are simply too many top tier protosses now. Unless your top tier protoss group includes 15-20 players, it would be hard to include Yonghwa.

By code B I meant Alicia and some other protoss I forget, not YH.

Where are the freaking vods?! It has been nearly a day and not one video of any games are up. I have never had to wait this long and always watch the gsl the next day after I wake up, and I went about my day and am not home and still nothing...

The funniest (and saddest) thing about this is that there are people dumb enough to legitimately think like that. They're not just trolling.

As expected butthurt posters remains butthurt even when all the facts are in front of them *shrug.

To all the people posting about "no vods" - I watched the twitch vod yesterday - the whole group C 3 hour vod. I got to it through a user made spoiler free site I found through the GOM forums: http://www.gomtv.net/forum/view.gom?topicid=303127&cid=-1&kind=1
It was slow in loading but came through eventually (I'm in Canada btw).
Didn't want to post the actual link in case its against TL rules or something.
Also - sOs is the man.

Thank you. GOM seems to be fucking retarded when it comes to getting their VODs ready. I used to be able to watch the VODs hours later on their website, now I have to wait several days. I hate this whole TWITCH partnership. It is making everything extremely difficult compared to their old way of doing things. I much more enjoyed the personalized experience prior to this new partnership.
bahhumbug. nbd i guess.

I guess you can easily get 10-15 players who you can call as top-tier nowdays.
For each race. Competition is huge.
Probably it's good probably bad, i dunno.

I think they tried to split the video into multiple parts. That's why it takes so long. They could have made the whole video available first like Proleauge does. Instead they choose the hide the original video.

.
How are you waiting days for VODs? They're up on Twitch almost immediately. Just go to "past broadcasts" and find the whole event there as a 4 hour long video. So easy.
