Dear, on the other hand, shows people what a truly skilled Protoss looks like. sOs pales in comparison. No, all that can be executed by silver league players are unsubstantiated claims like yours and whining about "cheese". The only way someone would think sOs wins through crossing his fingers is by not understanding his brilliance. | ||

He was knocked out in Season 2 by losses (in one game series!) to Maru and soO, who both went on to show themselves to be among the best in the world.] As for the idea that he won Blizzcon because of cannon rushes, watching the games he played dispels that notion quickly enough. | ||

sOs is a brilliant player. You may like or not his style, but failing to see his brilliance only speaks about your own limitations not his. | ||

Innovation, who with all his mega-hyped mechanical play couldn't even progress through group stages in both WCS S2 Global and WCS S3 KR. Yet he got hyped by the casters like he's some demi-god. The same Innovation who got kicked out of Blizzcon by the underrated Duckdeok. | ||

Maybe he and Innovation should switch names + Show Spoiler + jk (jk the name changing part I mean ) | ||

Along with "you killed a control group? Jokes on you, I'm terrible and didn't have the multitasking to control it anyway | ||

Not surprisingly, sOs's Ro16 and Ro8 games at BlizzCon were relegated to the secondary stream, with main stream preference given to fan favorites like Bomber and Jaedong. If that was true we would have seen Polt on the main stage for one of his two series.  But really there were fan favorites in every game. Did not get to see any Team Liquid players nor Innovation. I wish they would do a 2 stage setup or have the finals over 3 days. If you do it at Blizzcon, have the Ro16 on Thursday. Ro8 and Ro4 on Friday. Finals on Saturday (so that both players are well rested and on even ground, sucked there was no Finals pre show and Jaedong had to play right away after the intense series vs Maru.) | ||

Also Dear goes quick DTs in a ridiculous amount of his PvPs I don't understand it, either. Apparently, some people want Protoss to map split, defend, build colossus, go 200/200, then A-move. | ||
