The pattern of Major in WCS goes deeper than Rotti mentioned. THIS is what happened to Major in all 3 of his past WCS seasons.

Round of 32, Major gets matched with a very hot Korean Terran to open up. He wins. He faces a Protoss in the Winner's Match. He loses. He then has a rematch with the same Korean Terran in the decider and loses.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

Drawing a Terran was worst-case scenario for KingKong. If he has any ZvT partner, it'd be Hack, who isn't the most accessible person right now with the current STIM partnership.

I'm pretty sure he could practice with iaguz (especially since iaguz drew a Zerg) too.


But this is SEA. Iaguz has a million Zergs to practice with, and he's been teammates with Petraeus forever.

Throwing away mutas for resupply in roaches. But the mutas should have at least done ANY damage. But they didn't. The got the health of the thors down a bit, but they had their backup buddies aka SCVs
