MLG ended ahead of schedule too. they weren't expecting the award ceremony until 8:00 and it was at 6:30. If Alicia pushed it to a bo9, there would have been right on schedule though. | ||

Does this mean Kespa has opened the flood gates for their players to play in foreign tourneys? What about the GSL? So it'll basically be like the OSL and MSL of BW except with GSL replacing MSL. I think it'll be a little limited for the kespa players, at least for a while. I think it was in the mlg interview where they mentioned about a more exclusive partnership. I could be wrong though, dont remember correctly. | ||

If you let Toss FFE, your third is always going to be in an awkward location, and that can be exploited by a variety of Toss timings, most predominantly being the +2 blink stalker timing off of the FFE. So you either have to deal with that, or go 2 base vs 2 base Toss, which also kind of sucks. Therefore, you 6p to reset the game and allow yourself to expand faster. The problem with Alicia's play is he never scouted the double expand, and his third was too slow. He should have killed those rocks with his army before he pushed out. But he did everything else before that perfectly. If he had scouted the 4th (his hallu phoenix died JUST before reaching it) he could have easily killed it, and it would have been 3 base vs 3 base. Another thing I would like to see in PvZ is faster templar tech against Infestors. So many Protosses wait so long, or go for robo --> colossus instead... which gives Z so much time to respond. Templars force roaches since storm/feedback destroys Ling/Infestor, then you can go robo after forcing roaches. Calm down with the imbalance whine if you don't even understand what you're watching. And this is why I always ban TDA. Truth be told though, a DT rush is a very good follow up to being 6pooled if you hold with any sort of success. Actually, I believe Alicia turned the phoenix south before he found the hidden expo at 12 o'clock. That made me cringe. | ||

It makes perfect sense: it's Zerg expansion and they want to show the new units. Two different match-ups accomplish that for all races. They even let Zerg win once and lose once. Remember, the games were not meant to show any new real strategies, it's just show-off before the beta begins and before all the final balancing comes to play. | ||

This is very true, but still with all the new units and stuff you might have thought they would at least show us how well the new stuff mixes with the old. | ||

apm and epm are reversed in the observer UI for who knows what reason, so that's including spam. | ||
