Can't believe people thought that was a good game. Absolutely dreadful. This is the epic game SC can showcase now?

Who did you sell your ability to enjoy things to?


The game was really dreadful. I mean, it was exactly a showcase of the broken mechanics of SC2 which was extremly ugly to watch (note: broken, _not_ imbalanced).

I cant believe that the live thread is actually villifying LiquidHero for this comeback. First of all he did an amazing job coming back, Second JD slipped because he got overconfident, and third it's not heros fault that yeonsu is a stupidly easy map to immortal/forcefield all in.


Well a lot of fans are dissapointed, and this is a nice place to vent your frustration unfortunately...

It is absolutely baffling that JD still has not figured out that zerg is never supposed to be aggressive when ahead, unless you have already won. If he just falls back, makes some drones and masses hydras, hero has zero chance of winning. Again, his over-aggression kills him. And he never learns.

Fuck everything, I'll go drink some battery acid now or something.


Lol. JD is so terrible with his consistent top 4 finishes. He never learns how to play decently. Must be hard to be butthurt all the time.

Bad engagements from Jaedong and absurdly good micro from Hero.

how can you engage god on yoensu vs FF?

I don't know, I think god has pretty good unit control. I mean, he has to... right?

I'm really, really upset about that game.

Something about that seems very wrong to me.

I mean it's cool that some units work well together, but immortals are too strong too begin with, pair them with a Warp Prism and they're invincible against Lair tech units.

he threw away 40 supply of roaches for 1 immortal when he went to counter attack , god knows why.... if he keeps those 20 roaches and have all his hydras , he crushes the 3rd attacks and wins.. he made a mistake and lost because of it.
it wasnt a broken startegy or anything like that , you make mistakes in this level you let your opponet win , thats it
everyone else here are just blind and calling out the build imba or what not ..... please rewatch the game and see how JD just throws the game him self (sick play from hero to capitalize)

Super sick micro by Hero... but seriously? 2 times gets crushed, but 3rd time is the charm b/c of the power of protoss.

That last game was epic. The whole series was epic. We saw cheese from both sides, amazing holds, stunning harassment, stellar late game army control from both sides, improbable comebacks, and dramatic momentum swings. Many of you willl probably continue to express how this series is "why you hate sc2" but this is why I love it

Why are people complaining? Matches like that need to possible for games to remain interesting. When I saw the openings that last game I was prepared for a boring match of Jaedong eventually steamrolling but Hero somehow managed to engineer a win from his predicament. It was a great match between two great players.

You mean HerO.

well, there's only one hero here so it should be obvious who I mean but ya, I'm aware that CJ_herO and liquid_HerO are two different players lol.

So much bitterness about balance and all that shit. How about you just focus on the fact that this was one of the most tense and exciting games of SC2 (imo)? HerO micro'ed really awesomely and Jaedong did amazingly as well.
Just when I thought I was out, Blizz pulled me back in..

Wow man. That is by far the best tournament I have seen in the last couple month. Games are amazing as hell and the stories and comebacks are brilliant. Really really happy about it

Seriously! I've never seen a tournament have this many good games. Better than Blizzcon IMO.


Yeah, it's been so sick.

Seriously, why throw away your lead with counter attacks o.o

sick comeback by HerO


Yeah actually, after he held the attack I was so happy, then watching him use 20 roaches on doing what he did.. I wanted him to retreat so badly. If he had, he could've flanked the army on the open ground from the start which would've won him the game right there. No way Hero could've dealt with 20 roaches in his back, even with 1 more immortal.

But I have to admit, like Patiences mistake with that large air engagement on alterzim stronghold, it takes a great player to even capitalize on mistakes like that and make the most out of it. This tournament is really full of great games, but I have to get out of bed again in 7 hours so I'll just hope for an even more awesome final for you guys <3
