75% win ratio translates into utter domination. Bonjwa level win ratio.

I'm glad Snute put up a fight, though!

Agreed. Yeah, it's 500 bucks but save the cheese for the ladder or a bigger tournament.


Cheese is legit, always, like it or not.


Yeah. It is legit I agree but I don't like seeing cheese in show matches. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Do foreigner terrans even exist

Jinro and in HOTS Bunny. But only for a short time. But why is that? Tastosis once said T is the mechanically hardest or most demanding (cant remember which one) race. Does it have something to do with that?

With Kespa jail awaits, you will do anything to keep you from being last of the team.
3-1 is a good end for DRG because Ty is there with 2L already.

Exactly, I'm not a strong fan of cheese, but it serves as an excellent testimony of skill for the defending player, hence you maybe should put it that way to enjoy it a little bit more.

Awesome to hear, I wish they had some mics in the crowd. Eveything looks good, but the atmoshpere is not really coming across.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Korea has won already, but they still play out all the matches as it's a showmatch.

It's quite interesting to me that once KeSPA came in, terrans in Korea have dropped significantly in power.
TY and INnoVation aside, can you name a single KeSPA terran who you'd class as top tier?

In HotS, the vast majority of KR terrans became INnoVation-clones, except that because they're not inno they were all worse. Compare that to eSF terrans like Maru / TaeJa / Polt / Mvp / MMA etc etc who all tended to have their own styles (and of course were far more competitive).

It's noticeable that loads of foreigner terrans interviewed all quoted INno when they were asked about who they were copying stylistically, and this is where I feel the problem comes in - because all the other players mentioned above play far more cerebral styles. INnoVation plays a simpler game, and wins because he's just that good at steamrollering like a monster. It's an easier style to copy than showing someone a Maru vod and telling them to do that, but it's also a weaker style if you can't play it as well. It's also worth mentioning that INno actually adjusts on the fly quite a bit more than anyone truly gives him credit for, and maybe anyone copying him doesn't have the same capability to read the game.

TLDR: terrans in general look to copy inno rather than actually developing their own style, and rely on brute force that lets them down at the top level

Not at all, they were always going to play all maps. It's 15-5 for Korea. 4 more games.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
