I only saw the games against Puck and Snute. In the first game MLorD forgot combat shields. In the 2nd game he got kinda rekt by 2 tankivacs and 4 vikings so he was behind all game. Thanks, then Major apparently didn't have the opportunity to fuck up that badly those two games. Yeah his weaknesses can't be easily exploited in TvT whereas his strengths shine, too bad. In g2 Major vs MLorD, MLorD got really greedy with his raxes so he had almost no army to deal with the double tankivac + viking harass, got super behind because of it.

Terran was designed for Koreans, now Blizzard banned them.
Something like that? .
Edit: But seriously, the only good chinese players are zergs and the two good terrans in the tounrment landed in the same group, which was also the hardest.

Everybody gets a Chinese visa, no questions asked. If he knows, where to get it. In Hong Kong, express visa for a fee in a few hours. Would be worth it.

Terrible "creative" mappool I don't see what the map pool had to do with it at all. MajOr got all-inned and wasn't prepared, doesn't change with the maps; against puCK he got good maps and played terribly. MarineLorD lost 2 macro games to Snute, that didn't have a lot to do with the maps either, he even got good spawns on Lerilak.

Rofl, Sioras used Harstem's computer to study his replays when Harstem wasn't in the room.
He only got a warning though.

Where do you get that winrate from, I don't see much terrans in SSL or online cups, and if GSL is out because different mappool, that leaves proleague which is bo1 in teams, this has nothing to do with 1v1 tourneys.
I didn't see the decisive games of MLorD/MajOr today but looking at the results: lerilak is meh, central is bad, ulrena is terrible to meh depending on the build (Snute doesn't do FireCake stuff so it becomes meh I guess).
Major was exposed tho, it's not even choking it's just trying to get cheap tactically but harass heavy wins that did not work out because you can't get away with being inefficient at high lvl TvP (didn't see vs Snute but if it's against allins, he was already "lazy" in his defense at IEM).
It's almost like he would rather produce more stuff than micro his actual stuff, send his stuff in harass, rinse repeat until hopefully the opponent finally dies / has to all-in him in a bad position.

So you didn't watch the games and still blame the result of Snute vs MarineLorD entirely on the map pool?

I don't blame the results, a question was asked in a manner that imply that terrans don't do well in general :"no terran... again??!" and my answer is that terrans are struggling in various tournaments mainly because of the mappool which isn't favorable for them in BoX because "on paper" they'll lose.

Then that guy got raped by a 1 hatch mutalisk build

When you have a professional tournament with the top players, something like this would never happen. When you have a tournament, where an amateur with no competition experience can come that far, that is saying something about the level of players in that tournament. And then, things like that can happen.
