I am one of the biggest sOs fans here ... but everyone sees, what is happening there :-(


You have a weird sense of fandom if you want to attribute your favorite player's losses to match fixing. I think it's in poor taste, particularly when sOs has just lost the one game so far.

You probably did not read the discussion here. We were going through the options for BlizzCon ... and agreed, it would be the easiest for him to lose in the semifinal to choose the easiest opponent ... and just stressed, hopefully he will not be thinking this way, as it pays back.

But hopefully, it was just his feeling bad as he said ...


I've been reading the entire thread, it seemed pretty clear that you were implying that sOs was intentionally playing worse than he could because he'd like a different opponent than he would get if he won. I think the implication is very distasteful, and after games two and three make you look a little silly.

If that wasn't what you were saying, then no matter. But this is what sOs is like, no series is over until he taps out.

Well, Solar could have a chance if he wasn't risking it all on a 3 hatch before pool.

People always act like 3 hatch before pool is some unbelievably unheard of risky gamble vs protoss. It's fairly standard and is the perfect reaction to nexus first. The same could have been said if Solar ten pooled in game 2.


Yes, exactly the same thing could have been said if he 10 pooled. Doesn't make it (or 3 hatch before pool) any less risky. It's only insta-loss in very few cases, but it is a risk nontheless.

And 3 hatch would beat a gate expand, it's rock paper scissors and sos is the best at it.

You can even tho a safe version of it with a drone scout
or go hatch pool hatch before queens for almost the same effect.

If Solar was expecting the proxy two gate, sOs would have gone nexus first.

i saw dts warping in in game 2 then my stream crashed. Once I got it to work again sOs was up 2-1.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Honestly it feels like at least 75% of pro-level proxy gates in PvZ win.

Zergs get called stupid and greedy whenever they go 3 hatch before pool but nobody says anything when Proposes go nexus first. Same level of greed. 3 hatch is punished by unspotted proxy gate or cannon rush. Nexus first is punished by ten pool. Shit happens

That is not hoping he doesn't think that way. That's stating that he actually does it.
