I used mutas when I played HyuN in the GSTL, and I had said in interviews that mutas were good in ZvZ, so I thought they would be on his mind, and didn't use them.

wow.

even if it didnt actually effect the games very much, its so awesmoe too see them put so much effort into tricking their opponent.

Haha, I think I like Heart. Even though he KILLED my favorites, he's still such an interesting guy to watch. I'm glad he won, he looked like he deserved it no matter how hard I cheered for HyuN (especially in GAME 7)!

meh. I wish he would just embrace his role as a villain it would be so much more fun, same thing with Heart. They are never going to be super popular players so they might as well go full out villain.

But how would he embrace that role if he is clearly not that personality?
I only see MC actually playing a role of evil villain including cape with a straight face.

that's only the first level, it would be more awesome if he actually used mutas because Hyun wouldn't expect it when he directly mention them in an interview right before the finals.

Yo this isn't Reality TV, that's just his personality. I think Sniper has absolutely nothing close to being villain lol XD

EDIT: Oh and Jjakji did have a good run in GSTL after he entered the abyss of code B. He's still an amazing player and a really good macro terran. TvZ is just a timing oriented match up. Jjakji is in fact NOT a timing-only kind of player, he's really good lol...


I'm not saying only. He's an amazing macro player, and has excellent late game army control, especially in TvP. However, when he was trying to beat players that were better than him, he would often have to utilize timing attacks in order to gain the advantage. This happened in most matchups, especially in long series. This won Code S, IPL ToC and many GSTL games.

I only really know a lot about this because, when I played Terran, I studied Jjakji extensively.

He's also had some crappy luck with opponents for most of this year. Granted, he dropped out to a player he should have beaten, but in general he's had wicked hard opponents this year. He's still possibly a top 5 terran, as I can only think of a few that I would definitely put ahead of him.
I will always believe in the fallen king.

The guy turns out to be good in heart, as in skill. Congrats to a well deserved GSL Championship, and hope it won't be a one time thing. GL Sniper!

I love those amazing mindgames were zergs make infestors in ZvT and ZvP. They never see it coming!
