But I agree. People complain about cheeses, but there's an art to making cheese exciting and skillful looking. Life had it, Slayers_BoxeR had it, Maru had it, MKP sometimes had it, PartinG had it... And I think Scarlett is showing it now. | ||

Sure but for Dark we know that he can take on every player in the world in a macrogame so nobody thinks he doesn't deserve to advance. | ||

Fair. soO also often gets a pass in ZvP though. And he isn't particularly capable of winning macro games in that match-up. | ||

He's proved he can still win with macro games. People hate the cheesers that only won because they cheesed and not because they're better | ||

Get over, players play too greedy and you see what happens. If they played safe both series would have look like game 2 of Scarlett vs. Zest. At least some people here give scarlett the credit she deserves, I can't help but think if it was a protoss cheesing they would get less credit. This gives an interesting story line for the rest of these matches.. Go old man Leenock. | ||

Zest definitely did, he opened up w phoenix 3 oracles every game. I do wonder about innovation though, he didn't show any respect at all after losing all his hellions. | ||

Furthermore ro8 doesn't seed into next season anymore, making it all the more difficult to capitalize on GSL points. Although the argument could definitely be made that a GSL ro8 tier player should eventually make enough points in foreignerland to go to Blizzcon, regardless of if she wins one | ||

It's like the Korean teamhouse is paying off for Scarlett. Now that the Koreans don't have teamhouses anymore except maybe jinair, they don't seem to prepare in as much details as before. | ||
