There are more of them, actually, but they are few and relatively far between

That was a surprisingly good hold. The intentional wall opening worked.

Sure, the 0-2 record against answers that were not hilariously off speaks for itself. Broadcasted games represent a ridiculously small sample of what is actually played. Getting sent out 3 times in a row on this map and doing that build every time. It is working in practice, and it isn't Bbyong alone who has faith in it. Games these important are not ones where you experiment. I mean, you don't know what happens in practice either. Maybe Bbyong gets megarekt with bio lately and slightly less rekt with mech, so he decides to do this over bio. You can't expect us to follow your idea based on what we don't know, we obviously need more than that (I think Maru said recently that mech was not so bad vs protoss, that would be an example of "more than that", but still not enough) If that was the case then why send out Bbyong at all? It's not like CJ Entus doesn't have other good players. And I don't see how it working better than bio for a player of Bbyong's caliber can possibly be a point against it. bbyong is their semi ace and at least their second biggest star. You cannot bench him in the semi finals unless he is literally getting pwned in every game on ladder/pratice. Him getting pwned in practice was kind of the foundation for that argument. Again, they are sending out this player on this map to do this built every time, I don't see how anyone can possibly argue against that indicating that at the very least this build is working well in practice and the team as a whole has faith in it. No it wasn't. The foundation of my argument is that you're asking us to believe something based on what we don't know. That works in a few things in life, but it won't work here.
What we don't know? What we know is that Bbyong has been sent out on this specific map 3 times in a row and done the same build all 3 times. What we know is that these are really important matches that the whole team are taking extremely seriously. We have the judgement of a team in the playoffs of Proleague, vs the naysaying of some guys on TL and a 3 game sample.

on PL/GSL level? I don't remember any other game within the last 4-5 months. But I could be wrong obviously. Still, my point would not be any different if 2 out 9 games mech worked, and at least one of those games was basically a throw by the toss.

Oh and the fact that he got murdered in those games. And the fact that nobody else tries mech on korean level. And the fact that he ONLY did mech on this specific map.

That's not even the point. The point is that Bbyong could have played better and that you don't need to be hilariously off in order to lose. Thus, losing to something two times is in no way conclusive whether X works against Y or not.

Believe if you want to believe. The day the mech:bio ratio isn't 500:1 anymore in high level Korean TvP, the conversations about the viability of mech can start. Until that's it's pure faith from people who want to believe vs the trial of reality.

You're off base with this I'm sorry. You cannot declare something viable based on a pro doing it 3 times and getting murderd 2 times, while confusing classic once.
