Nice. TL & Penev curses lifted. You going with Solar or Dark for tomorrow? I went with Solar because Dark's ZvZ usually isn't great and Solar has to make up for season 1. | ||

I went with Dark despite his mediocre ZvZ cuz of experience in Korean finals and I kinda expect him to be able to repair much of his ZvZ incompetence practicing just for this Edit: Oh yeah, Dark did win 4-2 vs Solar in the winners finals of the previous SSL as well | ||

It's what my gut says at least. But I kinda want Solar to win. But hey, they'll both be at Blizzcon 99% so it's fine. Either way I expect them to have some cool strats prepared, their season 1 match was really good. | ||

The tournament Zest won wasn't really a league so I'd say since Nestea. Fitting if it would be Dark. Btw anyone else super hyped for the KeSPA Cup qualifiers on Tuesday? sOs, ByuN, Dark, Solar, TY, Dear, Classic and many more great players. The brackets of death will be real. | ||

If you enjoy the games you enjoy them, i am not really enjoying it more/less just because other people think otherwise. Just because i am saying the game quality wasn't there (which is a fact imo) doesn't mean that you cannot still like the games, different standard/priorities and stuff. Well, you know, I feel the same way as Vedeynevin, actually. I feel like it would have been a lot less fun if I was reading negative comments throughout, because that then becomes part of the viewing atmosphere. It's a little like watching something you really like with someone who completely hates it and is bad-mouthing it throughout. Not to say that people can't write negative stuff if that's how they feel, but I'm glad I wasn't reading it while watching. Having said that, I expected people to complain about the games because they were so one-sided and sOs was making mistakes that should have been below him. I can understand why that would bother people. I still found it all entertaining to watch personally, though. ByuN's play was really good after that first game and I like his style and storyline. For me, it was great to see him win a GSL and really dominate like that. | ||

Changes can be good people you know ! Stop being afraid :D ! people whine on KR LR's because lately foreigners have been actually showing better games, and there has been too much KR protoss (mainly pvp) action, games get stale and predictable | ||
