Senseless bashing of foreigners and WCS game quality is not permitted today. Criticism is fine, but let's not repeat yesterday's mess. Games can be enjoyed without the presence of constant vitriol. 14:18 GMT (+00:00) Edit: This is your friendly reminder that whining about Protoss is an old and tired thing. Don't. -Zealously |

(This coming from a Protoss fanboy). And I wanna see salt levels when he beats one or two of them in Blizzcon :D One, maybe, but I don't see a universe where Lilbow would ever string together enough miracles to beat two players at Blizzcon I don't see a universe where Lilbow would ever string together enough miracles to beat 1 player at blizzcon I don't personally believe he would beat anyone at Blizzcon, but finding a player on an off-day and stringing together a streak of well-executed cheeses - sure. Twice? Never. I actually believe he may be able to take out 1-2 Code S players. It's just that his style will never take him far (early game micro and builds alone are not enough). He's good, but one-dimensional. If he was just another faceless Korean, he would probably attract as much hate as Myungsik. I'm not hating against foreigner or even a Protoss (in fact, I love Protoss and admire players like Rain, Classic, Zest, herO and sOs - who are all solid players all-round). I just don't think Lilbow offers as much to Blizzcon as players like Dark, Fantasy, Rogue, etc. I mean he did recently beat both Rain and Classic, so it's possible, but unlikely.
Who both then went on to win the tournaments. Losing to Lilbow is a blessing!

fun fact: from Season 2 and Season 3, Lilbow played on Cactus Valley 4 times and has only lost 1 game to Jaedong in the Ro16 and that was very close

You're confusing Lilbow with Snute And snute isn't even here after beating both champions. WCS > Korea confirmed.

Rain lost to Lilbow but won Homestory.
Okay, maybe Classic lost to Snute but won IEM?
Got confused for a moment.

Ouch, Zanster missed that probe at the third, could have killed it

I do honestly believe Lilbow is the superior player and that the odds of him winning against forgg in the final are very realistic. This is enough for me to put away salt and hatred as long as the manner in which he wins is somewhat less retarded than against hydra.
I'm weak, I'm buying into the "FOREIGNER AT BLIZZCON HYYPE WEEEEEEOW SKILL!" shit

Is there a good reason for Lilbow to put down all the buildings in super easily accessible spots, or just a mistake?
