Very satisfying wins both vs. byun and hero. Loved seeing the lurker finishes in final two games.

Really dynamic and good games. Despite I never liked that much Rogue before, I must admit that he really deserve the whole glory now. I was so angry the way how TY (like any other time) has lost to herO, but that is the way it is. Rogue was always the cheesy kind of guy to me, rushes, hatch to golden bases in HotS era, but now he really showed some good macro potential. I have to say that he reminded me for Dark in some mechanical moves and especially the good lurker strats.

Didnt watch it live, were the semis and finals any good?

Some great games in there for sure, definitely recommend catching up on those matches (though Rogue vs ByuN less than the others).

Of the semis and finals, I thought Rogue vs. ByuN was by far the best series and that's only somewhat influenced by the fact that I hate ByuN. (his facial expressions during the last game were soooooo tasty)

TY herO was pretty one sided the entire way though not always towards the same player.
Rogue vs. herO had some weird games, but not your standard weird Rogue games as he was playing fairly standard.


How can you hate ByuN?


I'm in the same camp.
Actually, I don't hate Byun, I just despise him

He only has 2 builds: 2-1-1 and reaper rush, and one of them (the reaper one) is just patch-terran abusive garbage. If Blizz takes that away from him, he'll go back to being a random streamer. The 'Reaper Avilo' LOL.
He's nothing like TY or Inno, who actually have something to do with the 'S' in RTS.

Absolutely not. Sorry.

Yes, he's been using reapers a lot. That's because his control as a Terran is probably the best in the world and he can do these things that other Terrans can not. Once reapers get their nerf, he'll go back to his other strengths that he exhibits in the mid game. Multiple drops, controlling multiple armies at once, etc.

Out of all of his games, how many have resulted in him winning with just reapers? Very few. Yes the transition is a bit too easy, hence the upcoming nerf, but reapers themselves are not a problem.

I watched the first four games. Rogue just played better in all front (defense and harassments). From taking out Byun to Hero, great showing on how to play with Zerg :D

Just managed to finish the Byun series. I feel pretty vindicated, as Rogue handled reapers PRECISLY how I described in a few post a week or so ago....

These Zergs are just bad at the game AND arrogant about the shortcomings in their own play. What Zerg can't make or control lings and macro behind the pressure? They all wanna fast drone to 70, fast tech to the ultralisk win button, shit is tiresome. Same with the Toss who can't figure out Hydra ling bane cause they can't think beyond adept builds. They can make 8-9 immortals, but no collosus. They can tech to storm, but can't find gas for sentries, stupidity......

People were on here actually trying to say you CANT make lings reliably? Lol, they don't understand Zerg in the fuckin slightest...

gratz u were right, now all u need to learn is presenting your opinion in a way that doesnt make you look like an entitled arrogant fuck and where the edit button is

and also that you werent actually right and arent remotely close to progamers expertise but thats besides the point i guess

No my man, I only posted IN RESPONSE to entitled arrogant fucks who look to blame balance instead of honestly analyzing their own play.

What pissed me off is people really saying you couldn't beat the build with lings, which is just pure bullshit. I've seen people like Life stop mass hellions with lings, give me a break.....

People are so afraid, so INVESTED in maintaining their rank, or whatever they can't experiment and figure anything out, until they see someone better do it first.

I've seen this shit for 7 years now, it's nauseating. Hell even the casters at least half the time either have no idea what's going on, or have no interest in the game at all. They think people tune in to hear their stupid personal nonsense. It's one of the things that made this tourney so good, none of that silliness, just good games.....


And all you did is prove my point further, it's why you people can't figure out any fuckin meta. You don't discuss, you just insult and say something snarky, then feel like you are good at the game. Again, I posted this stuff about reapers at least a week ago dude.... Got me banned, yet still generated no conversation beyond a few hurt egos who wanna believe the game is wrong instead of they suck at it....



And I was right, lol I said you can stop it with lings and positioning. Counter attacks and cutting off reinforcements, just like sOO did to Maru, I even gave you games to watch and compare, give me a break Jesus, enough I feel stupider for even arguing......

I agree with you but I don't understand what causes your anus to bombard in such a way
Let's just focus on how good Rogue actually is (=

I think what causes his anus to bombard in such a way is incessant complaining from obnoxious balance whiners. Nothing new in SC2, but at least it makes sense.
