Does MC count or does he not count cause most of his race sucked until Parting and Creator showed up?

whatever happened to creator?


Everything that made him good was nerfed/changed and he's too stubborn to change.

Basically.

I remember when he lost against that proxy gate in SPL and didn't leave for like 5 minutes because that was Prime's last chance to make the playoffs. The memories.

real talk

is hyun vs inno worth staying up for?
does hyun legitimately stand a chance for a series or will it prob be a stomp?


prob a stomp


I could see Hyun pulling out a win or two in weird ways but ultimately losing 1-3 or 2-3

honest to god i think hyun's macro ling bling muta play is severely underrated. not that i'm denying innovation is better/favored and hyun winning would be a coup, especially in this meta, but i strongly strongly disagree with seeing hyun vs innovation as one of the throwaway matchups of this bracket


I've also been super impressed when I've seen Hyun play ling/bling/muta.

For all they're worth, as soO the 0 title winner is demonstrating against Taeja the 11 premier title champion.

A title gives you bragging rights, it doesn't give you skill.

I hear the paycheck for second place is still pretty decent.

He appeared some times in Proleague but I feel he never got a good grasp of HotS, though his defensive play should have suited this expansion quite well. He's still playing and could have a good 2015.

poor creator, he was sooo good in 2012/early early 2013

Mvp won all his 2012 titles when I'd argue there were like 3 dozen players more skilled than him.

For him? not a lot. For me it gives the best zerg play out there, and maybe the best play from any race atm...
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

He basically gave double forge its letters of nobility. His style was rock solid. Never understood what held him back in HotS.

He loved it.

His PvT was exploited by drop heavy terrans in WoL and speedivacs made it really bad for him in early hots. never seemed to recover in the matchup
