HSC Day 1 = EonBlu waiting room.

In before a not so unlikely 0:7

Most interesting matches for me in group A are Reynor/Lambor vs Creator/Solar. Also Clem is doing pretty well sometimes, maybe he's up for some surprises.
Group B obviously has Serral vs Stats, which is always nice. Like I said elsewhere I think Stats is gonna win that one in the group stage. Serral vs uThermal and uThermal vs Stats could also be quite nice. I also quite wonder how well TLO will do, I expect him to place better than RiSky and maybe SouLeer, but I wouldn't mind some surprises from some players.

Clem is playing really well :O
Then one teamfight and he gets smashed XD

That was a nasty surround

Dayum solar.
Solar I think said he has the best ZvT in the world
|
Young EU terran actually playing quite well. But don't think it will be long before he's overwhelmed by the swarm

You can tell how fast Clem is improving. I would not be surprised if by the end of this year or beginning or next year he's playing as well as reynor is.

GJ Reynor for beating Creator. Must have felt bad for Creator with the archons being blocked, however I'm pretty sure it was lost anyway.
|
HSC is the best tourney period. Where else you see group rivals just hanging out, obsing each other's games and cheering for each other. Oh and the commentator couch needs a special mention in the hall of fame.
|
Solar killing his own units with biles all game long
|
Solars zvz def looks not that strong i feel like.
|
too much greed from solar
|
Reynor too good vs 'washed-up' koreans
|
What happened in G2? I missed it
|
I feel like Creator had a really good chance of breaking Lambo before GS finished, but then he backed off and teched to blink. Oh well, Starcraft is hard.
|
Wow, since Lambo is also pretty good at ZvZ, I could see this group ending with Reynor and Lambo finishing in the first two spots.

I only caught the end of the game. Lambo used nydus and then attacked with ultra/viper/mass queen. Reynor had ling-lurker. Don't think there were any spires, but not sure.
Lambo apparently went melee upgrades all the way.

Clem's TvP looks like the good old HotS Dream. No finesse like Maru, just mass mass mongo drops everywhere and forcing Protoss to trip over their keyboard at some point. And it's working!

Was beginning to fear for Creator there. Had he lost a game on Cyber Forest to a EU terran he might have been paraded through Seoul like Cersei Lannister when he got home

Yeah he has a lot of potential for sure, but actually reaching Reynor's level that fast? I dunno, going 0-4 in this group so far says that he is missing a lot still.

It was one of the Afreeca show matches. Bomber literally still plays like it is WoL and it's hilarious.
Clem vs Creator was such a train wreck lol. Creator honestly played really bad in every game, but Clem made massive stuff ups in game 2 and 3 too. I know Creator "is" good but he really struggles to show it in most of his games.

Lambo's Dota 2 practice paying off
|
|
|
|
This Clem vs Lambo game is proper jetlagged.
|
Lambo's ZvT is honestly awful compared to his other 2 matchups.
|
that interview was very underwhelming ... Its not in HSC spirit to avoid personal/silly questions
|

I'm surprised they're already starting B on the main stream. And even more surprised this match is the very first one in group B.

Starcraft reddit was crying about the low level of the competition but we basically have the blizzcon finals in the group stage.

Well since group A started at 13.00 and still isn't finished one can assume that a group takes at least 6 hours. Then they kinda have to start it now I guess.

Ok so the main stream is waiting for Stats v Serral but why aren't any of the other streams showing games?
Harstem - Creator on B-stream now

Snuute has always been ridiculously good. He'd have racked up a lot of titles like Serral and Neeb if he had region locking.

As good as Snute was, he was a korean slayer in one matchup only. He never reached the level of domination those two achieved and he didn't seem to completely dominate foreign scene.

Do you think Drogo is at Serral's level? I hope you don't. Serral struggling against him is a clear indication he is vulnerable in PvZ at the moment.

GG Stats, still the best PvZ easily. Serral started weak at WCS challenger too, which is why I also predicted this. I think he'll beat him in the later stages though if it happens again.

Pretty irrelevent match given these two will be #1 and #2 in the group anyway. I'd give the edge to Serral if they meet in the playoffs.
On another note, is Serral now 1-4 in matches against top 10 koreans this year?

So I guess TaeJa was right at Serral's level at the end of 2018, brilliant. In a game as volatile as Sc2, having a close series against someone isn't really indicative of overall level. Consistency and results are.

Ok, let's go on and say Meomaika is clearly a better player than Maru in TvZ(or least he must be close to) because he beat him 2-0.
You are at the same level of people who consistently play close series against you, not just a single one.

Maybe that's just my delusion tho. So I guess TaeJa was right at Serral's level at the end of 2018, brilliant. In a game as volatile as Sc2, having a close series against someone isn't really indicative of overall level. Consistency and results are. Okay don't be so mature I can't afford too much snark, I'm on my last last last last leg when it comes to moderation history.

Is Serral getting out of the group?

On a related note, how did souleer take a map off uthermy?

I don't understand why Serral didn't build a spine or two to defend against that reaper opening--why try to do it with just Queen/Ling?

In this situation what should give solace to Serral is the fact that the rest of the group he could beat with a broken arm.

Solar won vs Lambo 2-0 btw

The only reason Serral is playing this bad is because of the heatwave. Finns aren't used to temperatures above 15°c.

You don't get (as much) credit for winning with build order wins. If Meo and Maru played as well as they did for 20 games, Maru probably wins the next 17. If Taeja and Serral played as well as they did for 20 more games, it would probably be pretty close. (Although if that happened practically Serral would end up dominating as he would likely improve his ZvT).
I'm usually one of the first people on here to discredit Taeja's wins, but in that series him and Serral absolutely played at a close level. Taeja was on fire and Serral's ZvT wasn't as mapped out as his other two matchups.

Every Zerg was struggling against Terran in that tournament and TaeJa "consistently" won two games in which Serral insisted to go for pre-buff Ultras; I guess Serral wouldn't have proceeded to sweep Bunny and win the finals against Inno if he were at TaeJa's level(coincidentally, he preferred GGlords).
It's hard to assess anything properly if you take single series in consideration, Solar beat TaeJa and Inno beat Solar convincingly, how could Serral struggle against TaeJa by this logic?
TaeJa played a great series against Serral and he was in a deceivingly good shape, but definitely not at the same level Serral was.

You can tell Serral isn't at his best by the fact he was chasing lings with corruptors and killed his own overlord in the process.

Well it was obvious, TLO's only chance to win the game was to completely crush Serrals army in one big fight, so he HAD to try to walk the spores to Serrals Base. TLO had the worse air army and the worse ground army and Serral was already on his way to hive tech

Wow, such admirable sense of justice! If only the premises weren't completely wrong…
You have been trying to mock me, a "fanatic", because I said I don't consider Ptitdrogo(2446 mmr in PvZ according to Aligulac, 6.8k mmr on ladder, a fourth place as best result in 2019 where he got eliminated by none other than Serral himself with a crushing 0-3) to be on par with Serral whose ZvP mmr on Aligulac is 3087, despite they played a single close series last week? Also, PtitDrogo is not a player who has ever caused problems to Serral, 9-1 in series and 21-6 in maps with the lone Drogo victory being a 2-1 in 2015. Seems like a lost cause to me, but nice try.

The fantastic thing is that Serral can win as much as he wants and he will still bw the perpetual underdog due to not being Korean, in people's eyes.
That says a lot about how rich and stories the history of Starcraft as an esport is, after 20 years it is still deeply ingrained in us that Koreans are just supposed to win everything not some random kid from Finland

tbh I kind of saw Serral that way in 2018 (I had the feeling that he couldn't be that good because he was a foreigner player) when I was adjusting to the reality that he really was that good. I definitely don't feel that anymore though.

The fantastic thing is that Serral can win as much as he wants and he will still bw the perpetual underdog due to not being Korean, in people's eyes. That says a lot about how rich and stories the history of Starcraft as an esport is, after 20 years it is still deeply ingrained in us that Koreans are just supposed to win everything not some random kid from Finland
in my experience, serral is rarely considered the underdog vs koreans (at least in weekenders)
the only thing ive seen is that Terran elitists (people who think Terran is the hardest race to play and that Terran players are gods) think that the Terran horseman would wipe the floor with Serral. Only innovation has proven himself against serral though (and he's also owned Maru and Stats in 2019 too, so he's just been playing at a very high level). Maru always comes up short before reaching serral and TY....lol
otherwise, I see people acknowledge serral as a favorite, or at least an equal. Most people were surprised when he lost to soo. People expect him to beat stats and classic. etc.
