I don't agree. That was just weak of NaNi and as much as I enjoyed probe rush in Blizzard Cup, I can't comment his forfeit with anything but "meh, just retire already". | ||

The only European to be forfeiting his match for in my opinion a bad reason. Players being lucky on winning their matches, such as herO versus Hyun and Revival versus Jjakji. And sOs showing how to win a 100.000 tournament in style, coming there to win, and not to impress, but that's how he impressed most. I liked it. | ||

HongUn has been my favorite Protoss so far (some Prime cheddar), but $O$ is doing his very best to win me over. 100,000 dollars and he does back-to-back proxy 2-gates? So good.

I am getting really annoyed at all this hate going around here. SOS did what he needed to win. and people should respect him for that. not downplay him Ya, thanks for that! I liked the finals and the whole tourney itself a lot. What crazy and close games where these by herO against Hyun and Polt! Cheese is a big part of the game, it brings variety to longer series like Bo5 or Bo7. And if all the terran whiners (sorry for that, but there was a time when Terrans dominated Code S, now it's just Protoss, every race has its time) watch closely, then you could realize, that a cheese build is NOT a free win, specifically at this high level of play. Best examples came in the finals: sOs won his cheeses, herO did not. And yes, it even hurts me as a (most likely) protossfan to watch opponenty die to blink-all-ins, BUT then watch e.g. Maru and you must admit, that even blink-all-ins are not free wins also. Plus: I like the variety Protoss brings to the game, in the moment it is the race with the most diverse build opportunities. | ||

I'm happy for sOs, I liked Rain more, but he was my 2nd choice, so it isn't that bad. | ||

Anyway, the tornament had a few really good games and my top pick is the same as everyone elses i guess, jjakji vs revival, that's a top 5 all times for me i guess. The final was the worst match ever tbh, if he had cheesed him a third time in a row, i would have turned off the stream tbh. | ||
