although to me it looks more like everybody there just shows up for the beer and singing, including the competitors. which isn't necessarily a bad thing. | ||

You do damage with the initial adepts afterwards and keep the advanced position in the terran base with overcharge. Nice seemed to think the oracles were there to kill the marines and harass the mineral lines. That's not what sOs was doing. I think having a pylon in range of the terran wall is really important as well, so uThermal's bunker placement (in range of the bottom of the third base) was excellent. | ||

I think koreans tend to focus more on execution and if something doesn't work it means they didn't execute it well enough (obviously still exceptions and limits here) | ||

A lot of the time even a "bad build" in situation X can be executed well enough to be ok. Ofc there are limits, etc but sometimes people go the Idra route and call something purely based on assumptions. I think koreans tend to focus more on execution and if something doesn't work it means they didn't execute it well enough (obviously still exceptions and limits here) Likewise even if a build works, it doesn't mean it's good. I remember Rain criticising some of sOs's builds saying they were un-optimised and that he probably had come up with them on the spot. | ||

If it is used a lot and has good stats then it's hard to argue that way. But yeah sOs seems to be the guy who simply yolos and it works for some reason, haha :D On January 03 2017 06:54 Elentos wrote: I can't decide who the more faceless foreigner is here - the guy with no face cam or the guy with the generic answers At least he is generic in a language we can understand  | ||
