I'm more of a Maru guy personally, but you Serral anti-fanboys are truly starting to be insufferable on this forum. If you've ever caught their streams (on the very rare occasions it's happened), their mechanics, multi-tasking and decision-making are clearly a cut above the rest. Like, if you actually play this game with any knowledge or ability, you can't help but appreciate their play. They're both two of the best ever, and this constant snipping of them is pretty tired. | ||

Inno is T1 only on his better days, maybe he will return to T1, so far he has good tourneys to not fall completely to T2. Edit> you can read it as T1,5. Sorry not sorry, compared to Dark or Maru Inno isn't either playing his best or his no more full T1 | ||

But its his own fault I just dont get why not go pool first or build spines. How on earth did he not expect the shittiest cheese possible? :/ Lol what? | ||

Man, there have been some AMAZING games of Starcraft lately, both in SC1 and 2. It's a good time to be a Starcraft fan, truly. | ||

Game 1 basically was a BO win. If Rogue somehow scouts the lings early enough, he wins. But normally you just don't scout the main after seeing a hatch. Going "defensive" pool first would have helped, but that's a so-so opener, which puts you behind vs. macro hatch first. Rogue's reaction in Game 1 seemed odd/slow to me. Scarlett's hatch being almost 10 seconds later than his should have been a minor tell (at least more than making one set of lings) letting his queens get surrounded at the bottom of the ramp, late drone pulls. etc. Probably wouldn't have mattered much, but still. | ||

-Four dominant games of Inno showing his mechanical brilliance - a maestro a work, even Rogue looks overwhelmed -Four quick drama-free show matches with past contender TOP/Kiwian - a chance to reminisce about the past -A thrilling conclusion - Scarlett pulling off two of the most impressive cheese builds vs GSL/IEM Champ Rogue. That is two big upsets in a row in Groups A and B, both at the expense of Jin Air, and I wonder if we see Creator advance as he is probably the weakest player in his difficult Group D. | ||

I wonder if Koreans cheese foreigners more than any of the other three combinations (koreans cheese koreans, foreigners cheese koreans, foreigners cheese foreigners). | ||

Game 1 was definitely not a BO win, you can hold that build with hatch first, otherwise everyone would just do it lol. There were obvious tells that something was up, and his decision to defend the bottom just made no sense. It's almost like he'd never seen it before because there's no way his response was objectively correct at all. Game 2 was honestly the bigger BO win, that build is OP on that map and you should go Hatch > Pool, rather than Hatch > Gas > Pool to be safer on that map. Evo block doesn't hold it on the map and the spine (even tho Scarlett didn't do this) hits the natural from the high ground if you position it correctly, regardless of spawn positions. The only reason Game 2 was close at all is because Scarlett made mistakes with the execution, and even then, she won. If she'd executed a bit cleaner, it's very hard to defend. | ||
