yeah I wasn't really worried about his ZvT especially with what seems to be the state of the mu ; but if he can display convincing ZvP we'll be sure championship caliber Rogue is there

i'd love to see rogue take curs outer bases and already start mining from them, it's something i imo way too rarely see up against a turteling player like cure.

Another edition of Stats being consistently great in the big events despite the community believing someone else is the best protoss for some reason?

Are you implying that there wasn't a valid reason for people to think Trap was the best

Yeah, Zest and Stats have always performed better at the big events. Seeing Trap finally winning is great but at Katowice it's usually the same players who step up.

I mean you're really working that 20/20 hindsight but I dunno how we're supposed to just ignore the state of Protoss over the last four months and guess that whoever did better at last Katowice is the best. And by that logic we should also have been really hyping sOs I guess

sOs hasn't been a big game player since HotS. Stats has been for all of LotV, Trap hasn't ever.

Doing well under pressure and when it matters is different to just being a good player. I felt the same way about Cure last year. He had the hype but didn't "feel" like one of those champions.

are we just pretending that GSL Super Tournaments are tiny tournaments? Especially considering those were in studio and this is online

Would you have had Zoun as the favourite if he managed to win Super Tournament? It was within his grasp.

Katowice is weird. It's always whoever steps up at the time that does well. Some players have a history of doing that, some don't.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

I'm more inclined to chalk this result up to Cure underperforming in major tournaments than Rogue showing anything truly convincing

The problem is that Rogue is just so in control of the game state and is always a step ahead compositionally. He had tanks when the mutas came out, bio/thor when it was mass banes, and mass marine when it was mass ultra. Dunno what Cure can do except scout better he really wasn't ready for mutas in either game

Rofl. Just smashing endlessly wawes of banes until Terran is out of bases and resources.
But props to Rogue. First he made Cure overmake marines with muta bane, then switched to ultras and cure didn't have enough marauders so he overmade them and died to banes again :D

When Rogue is on form I don't even know if it's possible for protoss to beat him.

Winning one supert tournament = winning the last 3 prmier events with top lvl competition, quite the logic u got there. By your logic 2018 maru shouldn't have been hyped after he won 3 gsls in a row because he never shows up in weekenders.

Katowice 2020 was a repeat of 2018, maybe 2021 can redo 2019.
