I found Harstems PvT very refreshing to watch, unlike what everybody seems to believe I feel that protoss was really struggling in the midgame vs terran with the widow mine buff making templar and zealot play less feasible. I think this is the reason that every PvT win in the pro-scene I witnessed recently was either a cheese or some 2 base all in from protoss.
Harstem showed me how protoss with good colossus, blink stalker and templar control can survive a midgame vs T and pile up the pressure in the lategame. He executed great control with uncanny macro and harass without having to rely on all ins and cheese.
People who yelled protoss op after these games on twitch chat made me feel sad. These wins where WELL DESERVED!

Too bad that Bunny didn't manage to beat Yoda when it counted, but I am happy for Yoda nonetheless.

Jjakji been staying too long in Europe.

Agree, he's a class act. Congrats Harstem!!!

Agreed, game 1 kinda sucked, but Game 2 and 3 of Harstem vs Jjakji were amazing.

its a protoss in a group whit 3 terrans. ofc hes gonna advance no matter how much better the terrans is lol Thats nonsense. I saw all games and the korean terrans were not better. If i didnt knew their names i would never guessed they are even koreans. Their quality of games were definatly not better than average european pro and far away from top korean play...
Hes not saying current form or that they are korean they are better. He's saying that jjakji is a gsl champion therefore should be better, and yoda is a iem champion i believe and so therefore should be better. Therefore it is kinda surprising that harstem got first in this group.

jjakji was out of practice apparently?

the year of harstem continues ...
