It was probably just the placeholder title or something.

The HerO vs JD series isn't there? D:

The first two games were underwhelming overall so I can see why the whole series wasn't rated high. Plus there were the balance whiners hurting the pools.



Yeah that is true. I just figured so many people would be recommending that final game that it would make it anyway.

Really was the sickest tournament.

HerO's harass was incredible in the finals. Really well played.

Gawd when JD lost that game 5 vs Hero I wanted to smash my keyboard.

He had it except for one impatient engagement where he left his creep and lost most of his hydras.

Congrats to HerO! Watching Jaedong lose that game 5 was so heartbreaking though. He defeated the all-in, was up a base and like 20+ army supply on top of the worker supply difference then he ended up making mistakes and HerO just kept building his army with more sentries, immortals and micro'd till Jaedong had nothing left. You can just tell how Jaedong was feeling after he lost that game from his view.

Polt's play was also pretty sad to watch. I always remembered that he had much better decision making and micro and against someone like HerO who keeps doing ht drops, he shouldn't have lost anywhere near the amount of SCVs that he did. He also sat in storms for way too long and didn't split much in some cases eating full storms. That was disappointing to watch lol. His 4 nexus swipe was something that I would recommend to watch though!

What is wrong about showing some emotions after a victory ? Wouldn't you be happy if your hard work pays off ?

I'm sure you've heard this before but most people have emotions. When they win a lucrative international event against the best in their field and justify their choice of livelihood, it's a big deal for them.

I was rooting for Classic and never expected him to lose to Polt coz Classic had the godly TvP and was unstoppable last months I thought it were nerves but then Rain also lost in crazy macro games so I was extremely surprised and sad that proleague.players were eliminated but Polt play was incredible I am disappointed that my fav player at the end vent was eliminated but respect Polt for such entertaining games.

Damn I quoted myself if someone can plz merge my posts

The Polt vs Rain and HerO vs Jeadong series in the semies were one of the most amazing Starcraft 2 matches I ever watched.
