People care about numbers too much. Focus on the writing, which has held up time after time and will probably continue to.

Start doing PR as poems pls

... I'm not sure how to take that.

How do you want to take it?

I just want it to be about the part that I'm proud of and turned out well instead of a PR that nobody would get right >>

To appreciate Nerchio's build in game 4 you have to notice that he has opened the same "safe" way 3 games in a row and started off a bit behind in macro just to trick Showtime in this one

yeah he sold a really good story, I love that aspect of bo5+ series

Lilbow "mechanically very gifted"? We talking bout the guy who floats 1k/1k during fights?

You realize protosses need to wait for warpgate to be ready before spending dat money? o:

when you wait twice the time, it doesn't give you twice the warpgates

Except 1k/1k is very probably one cycle of warp-in on 3bases :o

Valdes said earlier on stream that ZvP in korea is heavily zerg favored (quoted some numbers like 12-2 in SPL/GSL, can't remember which).

SSL, where until I think 2 weeks ago not a single map was won for P against Z.

SSL is heavily Z favored, but Protoss brings it to 45ish% percentage overall with PL and GSL, weird stuff

I think his building placement was weird. I think it's still better to have the buildings closer to the nexus, even now that the path through the 3rd was closed.

Is Dark qualified in GSL ? Because Dark is responsible for a lot of those P losses

Not very, it would be a final between the person I called to be #5 and the person I called to be #2. How exactly is that a silly prediction, especially when I consider both of them very possible champions in the preview?

there are two schools of thinking on that map... I personally like the wall at the ramp. If he sees the roaches I think he holds.

Yeah he is. He doesn't have a Protoss in his group though.

yeah I think people are looking too much at numbers. Every person in the list above #10 is said to have a reasonable chance to win.

Because Polt + Hydra are the 'regular'- they're what most people expect, right? So if they fail, it'll give my opinion that they're not invincible (but still very good) more foolproof legitimacy. Also Polt called me out so I gotta hope for him to fail now
