Even if the collosus cleaned up he was going to lose all those probes. Still think Olive wins.

Nice to see it's getting crowded in the audience (or camera man chose a super awesome angle).

There's no way Maru wins this, that would be a too perfect story. herO will destroy both terrans, well it'll be a cool story too.

Well with Dark going to the military, we do need a new archvillain. herO is perfect for the role.

herO? Archvillain? Please, the man lives up to his name, he dragged his race from the depths of despair single-handed.

He's the only halfway decent Protoss right now, but his playstyle is about as vile and dirty as you can get. There is no trick he won't abuse. It was disgusting back in his proleague days and it still is. The difference is that right now he's the only one who seems remotely capable of doing it, which makes it endearing rather than disgusting. But he's definitely no hero.


Literally nothing about his play style is dirty.

Hey Rag and Solar are only punching bags to HIM. I maintain they'd be able to take anyone else in the tournament.

Yeah, who's ever heard of hero that's clever, creative and takes advantages of his opponents' weakness? True heroes just amass an impossibly large army and march straight forward, crushing all opposition beneath the iron heel of justice.
I bear this sig to commemorate the loss of the team icon that commemorated Oversky's 2008-2009 Proleague Round 1 performance.

Why do Maru fans think he will thrash Oliveira?

Maru said he prefers herO and Oliveira has been the best TvT player in this tournament so far.

Very true - especially Rag, as he's shown in GSL and this IEM also.

This is true, it's unfair to maru when we discount an entire matchup because "oh yeah he always wins" and call players punching bags who are punching bags to no on else. We only use that language because maru is so unbelievably good

I haven't exactly noticed so far, but did we see more elaborate stutter step micro with workers, the acceleration was changed, right?
