So betting on a 3-0 win is actually an upset. Also, I think most of these games were like 75%+ at least for both Ty and Maru to win. Never really felt like Neeb and Showtime had any "win condition". I feel like game 3 was winnable for ShoWTimE had he not overextended. | ||

Except there is no one foreign above all the others, just a healthy number losing 3-0 Gap is increasing right now if you look at the performance of top korean terrans. Especially Maru and Innovation are out of this world. I feel Ty looks slightly worse tbh. Also lost one game against Showtime. | ||

What we can do is see if Maru will make TY choke. | ||

What we can do is see if Maru will make TY choke. I think you just have to rely on the eye test at this point. Look at the play styles between Koreans vs foreigners and judge from that in addition to what little tournaments we have where both good Koreans and foreigners are playing against each other. The increased amount of streaming definitely helps. | ||

But over the rest of the game he also needs to avoid doing Y and Z. And these koreans can just force potential errors over lessor skilled players all the time. Right now it seems that all-ins are almost a non-factor when playing vs protoss and thus its alot easier to rely on the favourite to win. | ||
