Funtime is over, start behaving in here. You all know the rules and this isn't the place for some kind of comments or discussion. Keep it to the games and keep balance, the casters and meta discussions out of here. Pretty please, with minerals on top. | ||

Then Sjow lost all his tanks to SCVs and they were even again. Then Maka was a bit ahead, but he walked his marines into Siege tanks and then Sjow was ahead. But then Sjow lost all his production, but Maka wasn't mining any more so after losing a few more siege tanks to marines Sjow won. | ||

When some people say he's a foreigner they leave it implied one of the last two. It's just semantics, people arguing over different meanings. In the end I find it pretty pointless. Does it really matter what he or anyone else counts as? Well, considering it's one of the major "storylines" of the global SC2 scene, making the distinction is definitely important to people. The good thing about players like Huk or Select is that you can pick your interpretation. :D | ||

The only thing that matters when considering nationalities in a game like SC2 is whether the player has had korean practice or not. In this case I'll still be rooting for Jinro/Huk as foreigners since they're the ones who'll show that you can do well with proper practice schedule rather than having the master korean race genes, whereas with Select, it's just a show that someone who plays NA style can still make it (and become better once he switches to a better practice regime) So yes, TLO is swedish, Jinro/Huk are foreigners practicing the korean way, and Select is a foreigner. | ||

I'm not sure I like his chances against Curious since Curious is going to be the next big Zerg presence, but still, I'm happy he got a win on the board and we should be happy we've had foreigners advancing today =) Hopefully he enjoys the experience, gets some good practice in at the FXO house, and comes out of his stay an improved player ^^ If sjow beats curious I will video tape myself eating a boiled shoe. You can quote me if it happens. Sjow's TvZ is not impressive and it's much more APM intensive. If I were sjow and I really wanted to win I'd just go for 2 rax, blue flame helion drops, or banshees to try and get a ridiculous lead early on. | ||

The only game where anyone outclassed anyone, was the first where Maka just stomped all over Sjow. The two other games where a cluster fuck. The games were entertaining, and the guy I was hoping advantage, but they both showed terrible terrible play. Brings back painful memories of the first rounds of the super tournament  | ||

If you're not paying attention in TvZ (or focusing on the mutalisks that'll probably be wrecking your main) you'll lose all your marines to banelings. | ||

He almost beat July in the MLG by doing some weird strats. I don't think it's all inconcievable that he could beat Curious in a bo3. Obviously he can't play straight up, that's pretty obvious. | ||

Sc showed some really good control and used and spread out his units just enough where he didnt over extend. SeleCt has gotten really good the last 2 months and really just out classed Alicia. His medicvac micro was great in game 2 sniping some many gateways not pylons powering but actual gateways and his ghost control was always a step ahead of alicias Templar. Mc vs monster isn't worth saying to much mc lost game 2 because of sloppy play but game in game 3 I feel like mc knew monsters build to a t and was helpless to stop it because he couldn't take a third and was forced into engagements he couldn't win because of ********* Kyrix vs gumiho pretty standard slayers t owns z not named neastea Yugiho vs shiny star kind of expected resulted shiny star did ok considering yugiho has been a pretty solid in all his gsl matches to date. Curious is pretty good and I think could be code s Jyp is alot better then jooktoo and those matches shouldn't have even been close but... Sjow is well slow and it shows in his tvt and might also be a problem vs Korean toss who might just out micro him in ghost Templar battles pretty much the opposite of select | ||
