How about giving Byun at least some credit for his performance?


It's not that, granted his control is very good. I just don't think it's good design wise that if you get good enough with tier 1 it is almost impossible for other player to counter, it seems like you can almost solve the game of starcraft 2 that way. I don't think Byun is that much better than Dear with control, if any, that we saw in their match, and I think seeing that even Dear's control wasn't good enough with composition he had, kind of forced sOs to choose colossus play coming into the final.

I still consider Dear winning against Maru way back in code S was most impressive feat I've seen in SC2. But that was Dear defending with what little he had and succeeding. If same is possible while attacking, it may be a problem.

he didn't force sOs to choose collossi it's his go-to playstyle.

can someone explain the byun innovation thing

ByuN is INnoVation fan, he goes to fan meeting for exemple :D


WTF are you bullshitting me? xD

also: sos looking so happy wow

Nope. You know how Byun always hugs Maru and shit? Inno is even more important to him. He's the biggest fanboy.

Guys is ByuN Gumba?


Well Byun and Maru used to be on the same team. Why the fuck would he be a fanboy of some other pro whos also playing the same race (and worse than byun, too) xD

He said the first time he met Inno, Inno had this kind of superstar aura about him. Something special.


Seriously this is fucking hilarious. Any chance there is some form to watch or read about that?

Watch the Ro16 GSL group selection for this season, they spent a lot of time talking about this.


Thanks man. Also found some gold on Byuns liquipedia page :

"When asked who he would save first if Maru and INnoVation were both in a life-or-death situation, ByuN said he didn't even need to think about the answer, and that INnoVation would always take priority"

Medivacs, tanks, liberators, widow mines are all not Tier 1 units. And I really like about BW and SC2 that T1 units are still viable in the late game due to upgrades and synergy with T2 and T3 units.

Two mediocre starcraft finals today, at least the bw one had a pretty good game though. Oh well

And zest will never win a WCS global finals

That's like saying "but hey zest will never win that olimoleague"

He won't cause ByuN and Neeb run Olimoleague. It's their turf

Blizzard actually thinks ByuN is still a Prime player.


Finally a Prime player won a GSL.


Prime reunited confirmed?

Polt and ByuN now. They must meet in the finals of blizzcon. Too bad foreigners are so strong they'll get knocked out in ro16
