indeed man, Cloud was better at producing probe, units, buildings but attacking wrong cost him both games
possitioning won both game for G5

I think it is a little controversial cause he's pretty much saying that g5 won despite having played worse, which he didn't. He played better than cloud and even cloud agrees with that.

Are you sure? The interview reveals G5 was cutting probes. Even though Cloud had a good econ advantage game 2, G5 had similar pop the whole game.

Positioning may have been a small factor in game 2, but i think micro and decision making were greater. As for game 1, G5 attacked the third he didnt know about at the perfect time, before storm completed.
Pain is temporary, but glory is forever.

I am sad for Cloud, because his PvP was always briliant and these games didn't show it. Game 2 was easy win if Cloud just waited for reaver/s and time attack G5's natural with good micro management. Game 1 was pretty even, but 1 battle decided (forgeting storm).
Brood War is the best RTS that has ever been created.

Cloud seemed to be the superior macro player, but he lost both games due to poor decisionmaking and bad luck. Got to feel that the force was with G5 this time.

First game he didnt use a single storm despite having a lot of templars with energy. Did he forget to research? (storms didnt come until after he already lost)

Second game he also made a lot of templars wasting all his gas forcing him to make mass zlots and cut goons, and then he morphs all his templars into archons. WTF? Did he manage to forget to research storm yet again? Even if he didnt research it, I dont think he had any reason to move out at that point.

Grats to G5.
