Stephano.... no

This AWESOME 1sgate never stop making phoenix build is hard countering muta/ling It's a great build on big maps. I think a good thing for zergs to do is a hydra/ling pressure before protoss gets his colossus out. Zenio style maybe.
Impossible vs a good toss. Phoenixes are just the same as mutas, they are a "active" unit. The protoss player would see the hydra (or infestor) switch coming a mile away if he uses his phoenixes properly

You have no reason to believe that.

Personally feel that it's only gimmicky when it's 2 stargates. If its one its just a pressure build

Anyone who honestly thought Nestea would win this season has not been paying attention to the scene for some time >.>

Why is everyone talking about the last time MC and MKP played against each other? That was in GSL Season 6 in May; it's almost a year later with a new meta-game. Just because MKP won last time doesn't mean anything right now.

Nestea hasn't made a semifinal since July. It's getting less shocking, guys.

I know nothing about the Korean side but I hope they're getting lots of love (and their Korean fanbase isn't reflected in the live audience most days)
If they weren't doing well they wouldn't be able to afford to increase the production values.

Why are so many people at gom today btw compared to normal ? Is it like a promo day or because this group is so sick?

It all goes back to NesTea's horrible decision at the end of Game 3 vs DRG. Wow. i think it goes back to Nestea's 6 pool follow up. and why would u 6 pool on a map thats pretty good for macro zerg? Just refering to Squirtle v Seal game 1, zerg can beat toss in late late game. Dunno. Protosses can easily 3-bases turtle on this map, I don't think you can really deny the third with Roaches/Lings because of the chokes.

What was the song that was just played last?
The lyrics went something like this:
So get up, get up, get up if you're with me now... stand up, stand up, stand up... let's get fired up there's no way they can bring us down?

Impressively weird decision making by Nestea ... that Queen move and then some. Genius stole HuK's "have my opponent make mistakes repeatedly' gun and shot Nestea with it at the start of game 2.
I believe it's specifically referred to as the "Huk-ray" =p
Excited for MKP vs Genius rematch since Genius play was a little below par in their first series but he seems to have settled down now. Should be good games!

One of the four players mentioned has three GSL titles. DRG's the closest because he's come soooooo close to winning several times and beat him head to head (though narrowly), but you can't just discount someone having success.
It's the same reason that MVP is still the best Terran despite losing to MMA; even though MMA has success, he doesn't have as much as MVP.

They should really change the name for Code A, so all these people can stop screaming end of the world when X "falls to Code A" like it actually means anything with this format.

GO GENIUS!!!!! I BELIEVE!!!

similar supply and upgrades at the end, but Genius steamrolled Nestea as if it was like the double supply in his favour..Z units seem so weak for some reason.
Anyways, I dunno if the HotS rly need that Tempest to counter mutas when Protoss got the Phoenixes that doesnt require micro. ^_^

Entombed valley is hard against protoss if they can use forcefields effectively on that small middle ground. The space is too tight by natural and that choke to the third, imo. Otherwise I like that map. Wow, Seal is streaming.
