True, that's worth noting. I was thinking big more on the scale of DH, IEM, or a more established event. But in retrospect I guess you could say BiB was pretty successful for a first time LAN. | ||

Nonetheless great write-up, thank you. Personally i would love to see more Gatored in tournaments, everything i've seen so far from him was impressive, but he doesn't really get the attention D: | ||

MC and MKP are pretty strong, but there are too many foreigns who are capable of beating the Koreans. If some would ask me who will win, I would've said DeMusliM, but now he isn't coming I have to go with Stephano. Well, whoever will win this cup, it's gonna be a hell of a weekend! Both MC and MKP will beat the crap out of Stephano if they meet him, in my opinion. After seeing MC vs DRG/Leenock, I think his PvZ's good enough to beat Stephano. Also, his games against Stephano on ladder looked pretty one-sided. MKP's TvZ is his strongest matchup, and I can imagine him hitting some timings where ling/Infestor just don't cut it. | ||

But I could imagine that MKP has prepared some specific timing to beat him, like thestc did. Can't wait for this. HSC III was one of my favorite tournaments last year. The player casting makes it so good. Nice write up btw | ||

Last HSC I experienced a constant annoyance or misunderstanding in Take's English pronunciation. I can see how one could mistake some words over and over again, as they tend to stick in your head. However, because many of us learned one or the other language after birth which didn't invlove any English whatsoever - and will find it harder to understand otherwise - I think it's only right to make some effort into improving this, especially in such a well respected tournament as this. And eventually, by doing so, upscaling the overal positive experience of such a tournament. I'm always pretty impressed by Take's English, actually. It's really hard to speak well for an audience, even in your native language. Doing it in a foreign language is really tough. I agree that every once in a while he says something that is hard to understand, but it's rare enough that I don't think it's such a big deal, and you can get that with native speakers, too. | ||

Thank you for your response. I sincerely hope I'm one of the few, because I tend to focus more on these things. | ||

Capable of dropping what seems like a regular macro build and declaring "I'M ALL-IN!" at any moment he wishes, Adidas need to sponsor MKP ASAP. Awesome write-up, TL's favourite pokemon (sorry Flamewheel, horses don't have souls), although according to the comments it seems I missed the 1.0 version.  | ||
