KSL was perfect for scouting korean talent and being all hipster about them when they then did well in individual tournaments later

20 minerals per worker (assuming your workers are synced and not running around trying to find an empty patch) That number is average because some patches are farther.

10:00 - a few workers killed by hero, nice moves the MSC of Top is lost in a bit of a silly way
11:00 - forge begins for top and hero hero is now going dark shrine
12:00 - +1 attack for both players warp prism and robo bay on the way for Hero Templar archives and more gates being added by top

17:00 - +2 finishing up for both players ltop warping in zealots to the main of Hero he drops the mineral line!!
18:00 - Hero decides to fuck it and go for the engagement still harassing in the main Hero poised outside the third ...UMM SICK RECALL MINDGAMES!!!
19:00 - Top recalls behind his nexus to avoid the time warp..I guess hero also harassing in the natural +3 on the way for top, hero delaying his TOP ENGAGES WIHTH HERO NOW!! GOOD STUTTER STEP WITH THE COLLOSUS HERO HAS TOO MUCH DAMAGE!! HE TAKES IT GG
This is the kinda game HerO needs to get into. No silly things. Just play it out. He's leagues ahead of everybody else in this group, just needs to make it count
HerO has to feel good right now. He just was able to win a game after starting with a pretty significant deficit. If he is on even footing entering the midgame I like his chances
Top played immortal/archon, hence no colossus. He had some good ideas like the nexus snipe (you're supposed to be aggressive with it) but it led nowhere. You're supposed to be aggressive to buy time for a better economy and tempests but Top had neither
Kibbelz, they said his name. Meh, I hope they hurry up and hire Nathanias. Kibbelz is not bad but Nathanias deserves a big break, dude works harder than probably anyone besides Khaldor.

Yeah to be fair it's not fair at all to judge a casting duo on their first pairing. When Wolf casted with Tasteless it was also a bit awkward at first.

There's no reason not to take the gold base on Habitation. The only thing that really hard counters it is like a 10pool speedling all in but that would also counter a standard gateway expand to the natural and zerg can't do it reactively.

The huge lag made him difficult to micro today.
I'm sure both players experienced lag issues playing on the NA server.
Chinese internet and Korean internet are pretty different. It is true that they both have lag. The difference is.... to what extent the lag is.
doesnt Korea have a better internet infrastructure than China?
and also Korea is closer in proximity to NA than China is, and closer the better (less lag)?
It depends on both distance and the bandwidth of each country. Considering the distance from NA, Korea and China are roughly the same. Then it goes to the bandwidth. It relies on the the country's telecommunication companies and of course, the government...
Proxy or not going heavy Roach into Muta just doesn't make much sense. You don't have enough gas to make as many as you would like and the Protoss will be making lots of Blink Stalkers anyway.

It only usually gets taken when you have run out of other bases anyway.

it depends, obviously it didn't work out this time but with good multitasking and depending on how protoss responds + how well they're able to feel out when the muta commitment ends + the map etc etc you can do a lot of damage or win games with the sort of play he went for. heavy rain is good for forcefields and sim city which makes the roach ling in this composition pretty useless

Did huk ever use halluc to scout? it seems like he usually plays blindly, which is terrible PvP. If he knew hero had blink along with immortals then he wouldnt give away such a big lead

I don't think he did at first, he had only one sentry (the one he contained HerO with) and then probably didn't want to use hallucination in fear of a big counterattack from HerO. That's why he didn't know about HerO's blink which led to Huk's attack which lost him the game

Nah, it just looked like that because Huk had the much better economy early, much faster tech as well.
That's the thing in PvP, it's extremely unforgiving to fall behind early. With the better early economy, Huk gets earlier tech, a stronger army earlier, map control all game long, etc. which only snowballs from there.

I prefer the robo because immortals give you so so much stability and you need the robo eventually anyway
Stargate because u can play aggressive a lot easier and the first phoenix arrives at enemy base to spot DT rush. Of course you can always proxy it, but then u can tell its coming if there is no expand/no units. Also void rays almost always holds of early gate cheese (4gate/3gate)

By the way I can't do the LR thread tomorrow so someone else is going to have to do one of the AM ones haha. Partially because I will be a little distracted partially because I will get so sad if aLive loses that I will probably stop updating the OP.

Have you done that before? Just stop OPing?
No haha I never have. I had to leave for an emergency in the middle of a series once but I got back in like 20 minutes and finished the OP for the matches.
Dam. Was really hoping to see Xigua come back and beat huk. It's a pity there isn't a wcs pacific for cn, tw, and sea. Unfortunate that they just put it all in wcs America and Chinese players have to deal with so much lag.

I got angry about that to, but Huk played well and I shouldn't have. He beat HerO fair and square in the arena that HerO placed himself in by playing in WCS AM. Plus the lag can't have completely won the games for Huk he played well.

If they did that the grand finals would basically be a mini-GSL since the EU/NA couldn't compete with Korean talent. If the NA/EU only competed against each other they'd never get better. The HerO's, ForGG, Mvp's of the world are bringing the entire scene up by leaving KR.

Uh no, koreans that leave KR are just scared of playing in GSL. they want to win in other regions because its easy money.

You misunderstand me. I think Xigua played better and his strategy featured a lot of hydras. They do pretty well now (I think they are better now).
Sorry buddy. I'm unusually sensitive to balance complaints especially when one player just flat out played better than the other. If it was an in-TL joke I missed my bad.

oh so fanboy baiting is only allowed when it's not your favourite player? May be we start calling dicks those who manner nexus (including hero)? Stop overreacting

It's kind of tongue in cheek since the hydra buff does not really change much in how the unit is used or how you counter it. You're still not supposed to lose colossi to it, Hero just walked into bad engagements and worse positions.

tbh it's probably true, hero was crying
it's like you never saw anyone mock a player.
Lol.
Maybe I'm saying he shouldn't be mocking a player not because I "have never seen anyone mock a player before" but rather because I think it is stupid and doesn't really have a place in a TL LR thread?
As much as I love to see upsets it is unfortunate because I do believe Hero deserves to be in the Ro16. Oh well, great play from Xigua, be interesting to see how he fairs in the Ro16.
Also, as long as Polt & Taeja make it I'll be happy. I mean, we already have Bomber who is going to win it all, so basically everybody is just playing for 2nd place now.

almost every player gets mocked, and hero does too. won't change a thing that you're in love with him
Why do players say shit like this? No you shouldn't quit.. just play better next time
because HerO was always very emotional and maybe he wrote this in affect (sry 4my english). He may be feeling like a bad player now, but then he forgot he won a title not too long ago so.... maybe he just needs to refocus and work hard to come back
I know you're a Hero fan but that is a terrible state of mind for a pro-gamer. If you lose you need to go into the training chamber and emerge better.
Eh lots of players are doing this now. TheStC and ForGG are ones that come to recent memory.
And despite being a huge ForGG fan (I almost named my dog Finn ... but my wife put the brakes on it) I thought it was silly to claim such things after a loss. It reeks of attention seeking and grabbing for "oh no you're so good!" compliments on twitter. Maybe I'm just too old to participate in social media these days.

Yea, almost all of them get into bouts of either rage or depression. As far as I know, only 3 players can handle losing well: Seed, Mvp, Life. That's about it.

Lol I tried embedding HerO's other tweet but it's not working o.O Since everyone is making a big deal over his other one I thought someone should post the other.

Stephano was the calmest loser i've seen
DRG is pretty calm about loses these days, considering all the highs and lows he's been through.

Your english is fine. I get the emotion part but putting it on twitter seems unnecessary as they gain nothing other than "please don't go, you're amazing!!" type of comments. Of course these guys can do whatever the hell they want though. Just my opinion.
EDIT: There we go. HerO's second tweet is a lot more understandable

Idk maybe they are fishing for the compliments but it's possible those really help their self esteem after a loss. I personally think that makes you pretty damn fragile emotionally if you rely on those but if it helps it helps.

Agreed... Anyway I edited my original post. Hero's second tweet, while still emotional (and there's nothing wrong with that), is 100% understandable. I just hate the should I quit questions. You're a world class player that just won a major tournament. No you shouldn't quit lol

Innovation also doesn't really seem to care. At IEM Cologne, he looked the same before and after the match vs hero LOL
I mean I think the feeling is pretty common that when something devastating and unexpected happens to you, no matter what it was. You get this deep, pit-like feeling in your stomach and idk you just like want to roll into a ball and not do anything ever again.
I feel like it's at that moment when pros tweet about quitting or whatever and just say things that i hope they dont mean. ForGG did it and now herO has done it and im sure others have done it, where they just have this indescribable feeling of both disappointment and guilt in a way.
I'm sure some of you know what i mean by that deep dark feeling inside.
AMERICA HOLDS!!! I'm surprised that Huk came out in first but dang I did not see Hero getting eliminated. I'm guessing all the favorites dropping out of WCS America. First JD now Hero.. next thing you know polt and taeja are gonna be gone.

INnoVation's never really struck me as a whiner at least he seems to be showing more emotion since joining Acer and moving into the Axiom house. I remember reading that interview when he was STX and he seemed to have none at all.

Uhhh verrrrry doubtful. He only got 750 for IEM whereas winning a WCS season gives 1500 and a season global finals gives 3k.
If Polt loses in his group of all Americans, I'll be extremely sad since he really made me a big fan with his insane TvP at Cologne, but I'll also be happy to read all the rage in the LR.

They don't have the 3k season finals anymore. Hero gets sent to every event so it's really not that hard for him to get the necessarily points for Blizzcon unless he goes into some major slump.

The most points anyone got last year (outside of any WCS events) was Jaedong with 1350 points for the whole year. The cutoff for making Blizzcon was 3200. You NEED a significant amount of points from WCS to make Blizzcon. I'm not saying he's not gonna make it, I'm just saying he can't make it without WCS

Winning premier is 2000 pts, Winning a tier 1 tournament is 1500 pts. I'd say its very doable for a player like Hero.

There's going to be very few "Tier 1" non-wcs events just based on the fact that IEM Cologne was considered tier 2. Probably IEM Katowice and possibly DH summer but other than that I can't see tourneys that are bigger than a standard IEM. The chances of him winning either of those is rather low, not because he's bad or anything just they are always so stacked

Again you're using last season's metric. 51k points is missing when you remove the 3 season finals so the 3200 cutoff is somewhat irrelevant. I'm not saying 750 is gonna guarantee Hero in, but it's not doom and gloom.
Goddamnit Hero! Sometimes you are the most frustrating player to be a fan of. Win what you have no right to and lose to people with half your skill. Grrrrr!

You are doing the calculations wrong. There isn't any season finals which gave tons of points last year. Take away that and the points needed for Blizzcon drops dramatically.
Alive had 3625 points but 2000 (1000+1000) from season finals so he would have had 1625.
The cut-off will likely be closer to the 2000 range. So I think if you don't get any WCS points, you will need 2 1st or 1 1st and 2 seconds.
iG's internal conversation after the match: Xluos: Damn Xigua is the boss after the patch. A player I'm not sure who he is: Why? Xluos: The stimmed Hydras fit so well for him. A player I'm not sure who he is: Well, just beat Macsed with it. Macsed: F***, Hydras came with like +1.2 attack? HOW TO PLAY.
This WCS so far man, it's crazy with all the upsets. At first there was Naniwa and I was shocked. Then Scarlett and I was upset. The Jaedong and everyone was mad. But now it's just like "oh who's gonna get upset this group?".

STC looked terrible though
Trust me, when you lose something and write what hero did on twitter, it's NOT fishing for supportive comments. I dont know how to explain it, but it's just such a horrible feeling and you dont feel like there's any outlet for it.

You've never lost something you worked hard for huh? It's dark as fuck when you do.
Meh... plenty of people cock up in the RO32. It's annoying I imagine, and sometimes frustrating but I'm sorry, Hero knows how good he is. Learn from it and move on!
I'm sorry, but i can't stop laughing. Hero, Winner of IEM Cologne just a week ago or so, and now he falls off in the round32. Polt couldn't take him down, but Huk and Xingua could.. Thats starcraft for ya. And as much as sometimes i feel like i hate the randomness, i freaking love it at the same time. makes for exciting games.
lol awesome! I looked at this group and thought "I hope HuK and XiGua win" but I was positive that one or even both of them would drop out. What an awesome surprise that they both made it through!

I have lost tennis matches when my profession was tennis. It happened all the time. Tournaments that I trained night and day for. I did so all the way until injury forced me out of the professional scene.
I never once thought "I should quit tennis" after losing. Even after traveling and losing in the first round after just playing an off day, as a professional, you realize the situations you can get I to, and you adapt to it appropriately.
You quit if you have to (can't support your career/get injured/etc), not out of a lack of motivation due to a single loss.
Ofc there are several factors, including career that he's thinking of, but that's just my 2 cents. A person needs to have their resolves. If you do something, do it! There's no time to cry until after it's over. It's not over for HerO (unless there are things in the back going on).

It was a 'in the heat of the moment' type comment. And different people handle things differently. I think it would be a bigger issue if he posted this 2 weeks down the road. But right now, he is just venting his frustration. You see sports players cry all the time after loses in championship games (and wins as well). It isn't like they are depress about their life or anything like that. Just takes some time to unwind for some people.

Completely agree with your post, but I didn't make my post for the reasons you thought I did. I was simply replying to Jinro.
