On the bright side we get to watch more juanito in ro16 action, most likely losing in the decider match

Pretty disappointed in soO tbh. After TSL I thought he might be gearing up for one last hurrah.

I like the fact that they use an english translator like "Ah we can't be assed to find someone who speaks spanish, his a foreigner so english it is"

If any unit worked for him today, it's the muta.

I disagree, Special is too good at being patient and defending against mutas, he won't die to muta harass. 30 mutas just doesn't do enough against a maxed terran army like the ones special attacked with.

Spanish would also slow everything down though. Since now you have three languages and they'd also have to give the English version for the stream.

The muta-play put him in pretty good positions, but he just overmade them

What's the point of getting a Spanish translator when Special speaks perfectly decent English? Do we need a finnish translator whenever Serral's in town?

Special played super well today, congratulations!

With the number of swedes who have been in the league throughout the years, they should always keep a Swedish translator on deck

Congrats to Juanito, glad to see him get to Ro16. Seems like he had soO's number in both Bo3's. Got close against Zest too, which was surprising.

There was a small showmatch tournament in China like a year ago (maybe two?) with Scarlett, Special and I think Maru or Inno where they hired a Spanish interpreter.

Hmm... so Special said all the maps are too big for bio. Well given how last season went maybe it's a good thing if some of the maps are bad for terran. The meta was such that Terran was favored on all but one map +match-up.

They're lucky Special has good english.

You could say the same for any of the other foreigners who have been in the GSL and didn't have English as their first language. Sure, Special has been in there more than any of them individually but definitely not all of them combined. Maybe now that Special is really the one it might make sense but historically, GSL is just not on a scale where it's realistic for them to have translators for every language.

the only time i can think of where a non-english translator has been required has been for the chinese players, and those are more readily available in seoul.

edit: saying that, i do remember in one of the first few seasons, they were only able to get a kr -> cn translator, so there was an awkward post-game interview with john and sen where it went en -> kr -> cn -> kr -> en

It's not that bad really, he just won TSL5 like 2 weeks ago. Plenty of players go out with far less accolades behind them than him.
