where is that guy that said Byun was useless now that his aggressive Reaper openings are nerfed?

It affects TvZ not TvP afaik, so what's your point except a weird joke maybe? :o
ByuN beat herO and sOs to get there. His TvP used to be shit recently so it's impressive he beat so many protosses in a row :D

it was a threat in TvTs. Furthermore, anyone in the RO8 of a GSL season is better than useless.
direct quote i recall from tastosis before the nerf in a Byun TvT in previous GSL season. .. "no proxy rax reaper this game but we could definitely see one in this series"

I'm pretty sure people were trolling because they were still mad ByuN beat both TY and Dark with reapers at Blizzcon 2016.
Even tho he is not as scary without his reaper builds, he remains a top terran.

Byun also punished Harstem hard with Reapers at HomeStory Cup. so.. umm ya.
Byun was hitting every race hard with the best Reaper micro in the world.

clearly the guy is trolling. i'm issuing a reverse double entendre counter troll.

Certain loud mouthed Terran streamers act like every Terran nerf signals the impending, inevitable extinction of the human race.

Wtf? I didn't watch much tourneys recently, did Harstem really lose to 2rax proxy reaper in TvP or something?
Is there even a build with more than 1-2 reapers that works (worked in this case) in TvP?

But it's a foreigner protoss and a middle of the pack one so it's not very surprising.
Did he beat KR P with such builds? :o


Go back to sc2, it's so much fun ^^ (I don't know the answer to your question)

TvZ was the only matchup I really wanted to play, and they nerfed to oblivion the only LotV build I motivated myself to properly learn, 3rax reapers -;-.

I guess if ByuN wins the GSL I'll be inspired enough to play again, but being a fan of a player when you are competing against him doesn't help you win -_-
why u fan of inno byun

Are there any precedents actually? That being a fan of someone doesn't help you win? Can only think of this guy in swimming who was a fan of Michael Phelps. That guy won though :o

So maybe there is hope?

The fan thing may or may not be an issue, but far more hope-draining (if you are a ByuN fan) is Inno's TvT form. The Machine announced that he took some time to fix his TvT, and since then he is 11-1 in offline TvT series.

He's beaten Maru, aLive, Gumiho, TY, and ByuN himself in the past three weeks while only losing one series to Gumiho (right before he got revenge in the decider).

I like how there is a link to the wiki in the OP so people can check out the tourne/vods if they are interested.

mvp was super respected and it allowed him to win games he shouldn't.
Basically he had this aura but his actual skill level after his injuries was not that good.

So MKP stood no chance what's so ever because in his head mvp was just the better player.
It's very difficult to beat someone you respect, because you'll be afraid to win against that person... which would make you wonder why you respected him so much in the first place.

I advise you to watch his match against Dark from Master's Coliseum. Granted, it's an online tournament, but he looked very impressive.

Such a shame he faces Innovation next.
