I watched Boxer's first person view in the third game and he was definitely trying. I can't comment on the first and second games but game three Boxer was out for blood and he just didn't have what it took (although his strategy was still too cutsey) | ||

Boxer didn't play as he usually does because of Savior. This is why Savior is a true master. Regular gosus have good play, and they outplay their opponents. Era-defining Super gosus, however, not only outplay their opponents, but they dictate the other player's play. Players like Nada and oov in their prime, and currently Savior, have the ability to impose the big picture that they want upon the other player. Savior, in particular, has such murcurial timing and tech switching that it's hard to see exactly what he does great. This is also because he's a Zerg. With Boxer, Nada, and oov in their prime, us fans could sorta see what they were doing by watching their Build Orders and overall strategy. Savior, however, has this incredible, shapeless, zerg-like je ne sais quoi. I can't really see what he does every game. All I know is that every game, Savior seems to have just the right amount of expos, from which he produces just the right amount of just the right kind of units to win battles one by one. And this way, he prevents his opponent from executing their game plan. Boxer, I'm sure, had prepared his own game plans for each map. But Savior has that special ability, the same ability that Boxer once had, to force his opponent to stray from the prepared game plan into unknown territory. All I want to say is: if it looks like Boxer played exceptionally poorly today, it's only because Savior is that damn good. | ||

Honestly, Boxer relied too much on cute bullshit whereas Savior just played the most solid ZvT strategy out there. I still think Boxer can beat Yellow, but really everyone knows that Yellow isn't nearly as good as Savior is. Boxer will leave the Superfight and his current career as being a top 3 ZvT player but just not able to beat the best, which considering the pedastal Boxer is put upon is a huge dissapointment. boxer does not need to beat savior, thats a retarded thing to say, boxer has accomplished much more than anyone else in sc progaming, losing 3-0 to savior certainly does not mean that boxer isnt overall the best tvz. oov lost 7-0 to savior before he started winning | ||
