Would've destroyed both imo, he opens with 3rax so he doesn't die to blink and lilbow isn't exactly great at multitasking. No need to talk about Mana i think :p | ||

The Koreans have all been killing each other, the only real foreign victory in the entire tournament has been Lilbow vs Hydra. Polt and ForGG matching up in the Ro16 had HUGE implications since they were two of the favorites to win the whole thing. Maybe you haven't watched very closely, but Lilbow beat ForGG and got the first place in the group before ForGG and Jeadong (whom he also beat), hence ForGG went up vs Polt. Of course, Lilbow was a bit unlucky drawing hydra who also failed to win his group. | ||

First criterion of the quality of a tournament should be the quality of the games, and we're just not there. Blizzcon was a thousand times more exciting, nearly every series was great. | ||

Polt level is quite bad compared to the top korean resident, I think it's evident for everyone. | ||

I will never understand why blizzard decided to give a lesser players so many possibilities to win against a better player. I hate almost all the BS tactics, no matter the race. One Cheese per race is fine I guess, but there is so much to choose from as toss, and it even got worse with LOTV. It really keeps me from loving sc2 anymore. It of course gets more frustrating the less skill you have. Since the allin does somehow often have an advantage, and not "defenders advantage", I lose on ladder quite often to players that never scout, have a third of my apm, in the replay it shows they are not understanding the game at all, just blindly playing their build... things like that shouldn't work. "Scout more" is the biggest BS tip ever heard, sometimes even pros don't scout hidden BS... | ||
