Go Leenock!

Leenock and Keen will probably advance, and Aiur's place in the sun will be as brief, as that of the one who said the said words. Really hoping for Squirtle and Keen to advance. Doubt it will happen though especially considering the match order.
|
Did Bogus really switch his name to innovation? -_-
|
Sign... I was hoping Leenock would make it out >.<
|
I Want Squirtle and Commander Keen...but it will be Leenock Squitle
|
Same win-rate as life on the korean server? Bogus and Leenock advance it is.
|
Squirtle Will get throught, because he's a startale player, and startale players get throught the round of 32 this season. 3/3 so far, and with life being the 5th all startale players Will get throught
|
I like Innovation. Sounds better than Bogus

Squirtle has not been playing well at all lately, I do not expect him to advance.

just because a race is popular doesn't mean you'll be good at playing it...it also means you'll get zvz x.x

Well, I don't think Leenock vs. Squirtle is lopsided, but I do give the advantage to Leenock. Squirtle has been on a definite downtrend since his finals run, but I still think he makes it out 2nd in the group. (His vT is still tops ELO iirc)
|
Considering how strong Zerg late game is why would anyone be surprised. When was the last time a Zerg lost a match where he transitioned into hive safely
|
Leenock is shining with pimpest games. Really looking to watch his playstyle through current gsl round.

Talk about wish washy... you aren't going to try zerg you are just going to switch. W/e people like you will switch back at the first sign of terran control in early HOTS or something.

Come on Keen and Squirtle!
Leenock always seem to perform later into the year.

Does this mean that the KeSPA players just aren't ready yet, but in six months time that their amazing mechanics will power through and all the ESF guys will be out of a job? No.
What it means is that some KeSPA players like Rain, Flash, and many others will become very good at the game and probably become mainstays of Code S. Others will fail at the game, never become anything more than Code A/Code B players and never make it over the hump. Just like how you couldn't go to one extreme when the elephants were destroying WCS Korea, you can't jump to the other when they've looked terrible in the past two Code S seasons not counting Rain. Does this mean I can stop cheering against KeSPA players now? I mean, I like some of them, but the way that that certain final edit kept on getting bumped left me with a sour taste in my mouth, and a strong fear of what would happen to the forums if they actually did well. The only thing worse than the elephants actually rolling as well as predicted would be the quadrillion and one unbelievably obnoxious threads from the diehardest BW diehards jumping the gun so hard they headbutt the bullet. Seeing Flash doing so well in MLG would've been nice if I hadn't had to deal with all that worrying. As it stands, though, I'm kinda relieved he didn't win.
Well, at least we don't see 2 full pages of elephant pictures nowadays

but MKP's TvZ, when at it's best, is the best we've ever seen along with MMA in his prime. In this new world of Zerg, the Terran race might have to pray that their king of marines finds the magic that he once had in the match-up against the swarm.
Whaaaaaaaat MKP's TvZ is... maybe a bit above average? Certainly not the best right now, and even more certainly not near MMA's in his prime.

"In the constant rises and falls that are Keen’s career, I feel that Keen on an upswing right now."
Keen confirmed for 0-4

He meant MKP's TvZ peak, (when he was beating DRG and winning MLG). It certainly was worldly.
