Playing protoss :p.
Jokes asides playing weird builds is protoss strength and it would be dumb not to abuse it in bo5, winning is manlier than losing with whatever someone will call fairer than what you used.
Plus Stork was a great protoss in BW, he isn't mediocre :x, even in sc2.

SONG BYUNG GU
i haven't been watching much gsl lately but i'll have to at least tune in for stork's games
|
still feels weird to have no parting
|
This line up is so good, you don't even know who to cheer for 
Hoping that Dear, Taeja, Stork, aLive and Curious will do well.
|
Immortal drop on tanks, disruptor drops, smart usage of DT, flirting with liberator zone edges. I am not of fan of P lately because they all go for the exact same strategies, but stork made me like it again for that one set, and i was rooting for Inno.
|
Please DRG, do a Nada/JangBi and become relevant again ><
|
Lotv looks great. Can't remember the last time i had this much #Passion. Watched all on Vods, so just going to take a moment to give short thoughts on everything.
TY does in fact look to be a literal god. And being an atheist thats kind of contradictory for me.
Fuck yeah for: Leenock, Dark, Solar, Rogue, Speed, Zest and Stork. and TY of course.
Disappointed with the play of : Creator, Super, and DRG.
Feel bad for Maru, Inno, Jaedong, Byun
Get on real teams: DRG, Soulkey, Byun, True
Lastly Lotv looks to be quite beautiful when played at the highest level, theres a back and forth. I used to think if a player i wasn't much of a fan of retires oh well at least they weren't my favorites. Though really hoping that were able to grow the pool of high caliber players.
Cheers.

Protoss and zerg list looks strong, but I wonder how many terrans will make it further. Missing some big names there.
|
Cheering for (in order):
1. Stork, 2. herO, 3. TY, 4. DRG, 5. Solar
Gogo Stork, unbelievable he's in Code S. I'm sure that he'll practise a lot, even if he's a coach now.

He made Protoss units 
You know who shouldn't be proud? INnoVation for losing 23 workers to a storm drop and another 17 to two AFK adepts in the deciding game.

His drop defense was terrible during the whole serie  imho it's clearly the sign of someone not confident enough in is game, focusing too much on what he's doing, and not enough on what his opponent if going to do, or as people call it, tunel vision.

It's in rather stark contrast to how he was playing at the end of HotS, that's for sure. Like that Proleague game vs sOs where he instantly noticed everything everywhere on the map, including DTs walking by his army.

People call him the robot, but he's the total opposite imho, he's very emotional and can fall apart very quickly. In team leagues though, he seems less fragile and shows his true value, is it the group effect that erase his doubts?
He's still m favorite though, I hope he still has a chance to go to blizzcon....

This is an awesome lineup. It's going to be a great season.
I'll be cheering for the KT players (that five of them made it is fantastic!) and Stork. His series against Innovation was so good. I hope he goes far this season.
