That's what happens when you lose all the players from 1 race. Lesser players make it to code s

I think it was such a rare situation that Yonghwa didn't know if more reinforcements were coming. Zealot at wall means Life couldn't cost effective break in or kill the zealot and the MsC would take care of the rest while his probes ran around. It was the 'safe' play.

Yeah I know it is ro32 but a lot of guys who advanced didn't really look convincing at all so they will need to step it up quite a bit in order to go past ro16.
For example I remember WCS S1 with Soulkey vs. Inno finals was overall much better, even in the early rounds

Even worst could of chrono'd out another Zealot and have 2 zealots but chose an ultra safe MSC lol. Strange. But all in all vs that opening Life was never going to win :s

Was that only ever going to work against anything other than double expand before gate?

What does that even mean. B-list korean Terrans playing in WCS KR are not on par with either YongHwa or Life. A-list korean Terrans playing in WCS are already qualified for ro16 :o (i mean Maru).
