Last night I almost traded Symbol for losira and went "no way in hell losira beats flash, nevermind"

I'm so mad right now

Flash is Patchterran. Zest slumps. And a team with only 4 core player will not succed this year. You need the rotation to buffer slumps and weaknesses.

Obvious troll is obvious

in 2014 PL he is one of the players with most wins, more wins then most protoss in PL had and that in a period where only protoss won tournaments.
Btw since today Maru lost twice as many games as Flash did, does it makes him twice as bad?

PvP, who has the better cheese, (not who is the better player)?

And that is why the matchup is so annoying


dat KeSPA tears

I don't even really know what KeSPA is or what it has to do with me not liking PvP or better me hating cheese, no matter the matchup.
Its legit as a game strat, ok, but I don't like it. It gives lesser players a chance to compete, to suprprise, to upset. Which may be exciting for some.
To me its exciting when the better player overall wins. You can now argue that using the right build in the right time is also showing you are a "better" player, but you know, I mean it in a "clean", macro way of things

You are entitled to your own opinion and I can't say I enjoy "cheese" much myself but if you think the players you like are "better" player you are just fooling yourself. Your arguement is pretty much as saying that dunks in basketball isn't really fair, I don't like them I think only three pointers should count and strategize for dunks is just for poor players or poor teams. Its just your opinion nothing else, macro is just one part of sc2.

To be even more frank though cheese never succeeds (with proper defence) if the players play safe, you know what that means. That means that the "macro" players you like so much are pretty much being greedy (mild version macro cheese) to play macro so well.

If they really were macro gods, they would open safe knowing that they would be able to defend cheese and then play into the mid-late game without being overly risky greedy. They don't do that, they say "hey I'm not sure I can win against you in a total even macro game so I'm going to be overly greedy and then hopefully I can win a macro game".

Winning a macro game when going into the mid game in a very advantegous economical position is hardly being "the best macro player".

I didn't mean it that way.
You can still lose to cheese if scouted, besides it can be hidden so it can NOT be scouted (you can't look everywhere).
Its not that I favor someone, it was clearly a prepared sniper build, from a player that didn't play in normal matchups.
I am not judging from one game, so give the guy a chance. I would like to see a BO5 or 7 between the 2, with cheeses, doesn't matter. I don't see pulling off one win via cheese is a good benchmark wether a player is better then the other.

I wouldn't mind every once in a while some cheese mixed in. But in PvP its almost every game, and its boring now. Relying to win a game only based on your opponent not scouting/being caught off guard is just lame in my eyes, but it's, as pointed out - a legit strat.

Besides, I had no favorites. I don't really care about PvP and since I am just recovering from the boredom of almost a year protoss dominance, that won't change in the next few months. Also I never liked PvP even before, since its volatile, lasers and just boring to me.

SKT vs Jin air = +11 points. Literally couldn't have got more points with my lineup.
KT vs MVP = -7 points. Literally couldn't have got less points with my lineup.

0-2 and everyone should still fear kt. They have the strongest coaches in PL. Even with a bad round 1, they cannot be counted out.

Dear went to foreign team, RIP. We'll see how he goes now he's back in KeSPA. Prime isn't slumping, they're just bad. SK you might have a point.

I can't tell what your trying to imply, all of those people have slumped in the last year.

DRG did fine. ro8 finish in code S, won a RedBull tournament and he held on to code S for all of 2014. Given how he looked to be on his way out for most of HotS in 2013 I'd say 2014 was an improvement.

Can't understand why people think Soulkey is slumping either. No shame in going 0-3 against Rogue. It's ZvZ and Rogue has been on the rise as a Zerg titan for over a year. Soulkey is also still in gsl.
