Aww, I really wanted Cloud to win. Too bad.

G5 had imba practise partners.

Cloud should have just taken out that nexus and bailed in the 2nd game.
Even after that, still could have won by waiting it out.

Anyway, GJ G5.

first game i think cloud only lost the battle was because his psi storm was like 10 seconds away from finishing, when G5 attacked. ee-han timing imo!

That was some very tight play by both players, but I felt that Cloud really dropped the ball with his army control. In every battle G5 had a sexy concave outside Cloud's clumped units. I think this was a decisive factor in his victory.

Still, a very nice showing by both players. What a nice first couple of games in these TSL qualifiers.

It's too bad G-5 attacked right before Cloud's storms came in on game 1. He lost everything after that.

Cloud lost the second game to superior positioning and micro, G5 played a great defense for a while there.

Really impressed with G5's play in game 1. Even though he said he didn't know the 3rd came up and he attacked about 15 seconds before storm finished for cloud, you gotta think that G5 just had a better grasp of the game and he was on a roll. Everything went in G5's his favor for that battle. Plus, that concave was sexy. Cloud just looked awkward for most of the time with only a few glimpses of brilliance sprinkled throughout the series.

GG to both players and I'm glad to see you advance G5, I was definitely pulling for you in this match.

I definately wanted ClouD to win, but it sounds like G5 has been practicing very hard for some time now... so its a well deserved win. I also enjoyed reading his interview.

If it was a best of 5, it may have been another story. Both games had some very fortunate battle micro situations work out for G5

GJ G5, and better luck next time ClouD.

As pretty much everyone has said, these two are both solid players and either one of them deserves to advance. It's a shame that they had to end up matched up so early on. On that note with the group, it's a shame that these three [G5, ClouD & ret] ended up in the same group together, as I feel all three of them could've had success in the Ro16.

Still, GG guys and congrats to G5.

If only storm was finished in game one before G5 hit the third. 4 HT's of storm would've made a significant difference.

All speculation though. Congrats G5, and sorry go ClouD (Was rooting for you <3)
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

Nooo Cloud

Grats to G5 for hanging in the second game, I most certainly didn't expect him to take it home.

Dude, G5, you don't loose in SC, but you do sometimes lose.

Anyway, sad to see Cloud go.
