And he is a fun guy to be around to boot. A lot of the IM players mentioned it in their interviews when Ruin first joined the team a few months ago.

I'm still waiting for The Elephant in the Room 2nd Edition. "the competition on the HoTS ladder is a farce because not everyone switched full time yet." Should be a good one.

It's actualy the big names Nestea and MVP that are least impressive in GSTL's in general, kinda cool and somewhat always been weird with IM.

Great way to break out of having one giant death ball, using constant DT/Zealot harass and forcing MMA to keep turning around. Still a core death ball, but with better economy able to just chuck DTs and zealots into the holes in MMA's wall, force scans, and ruin MMA's economy while showing that expanding could be dangerous for a terran.
Ruin was pretty aggressive with his HTs... His deathball wasn't really that big. 3 colo, 4-5 sentries, 5 stalkers and 5-6 zealots. I was kind of worry when he was trying to attack MMA's base the first time. His deathball looked really small. But he just lay down some defensive storms and fell back.

I know hahaha
Though I do think MVP deserves a bit more credit. He gets a few kills here and there and comes out a lot more.
Nestea....for shame. I can never forgive that 14 hp hatch he left alive against Byul even though he scored the winning game to get IM their one and only GSTL championship long ago xD

hirai(im coach) knows his shit, dudes been doing this for a while now
Today was a GREAT day for GSTL. First 3 games were kind of boring, but definitely impressive on Ragnarok's part. Games 4 and 5 were both very fun and exciting, and exactly what I was hoping for out of HotS. I am very pleased

True, true, but with 3 and 4 GSL's in the bag it keeps a strange thing, we just always hope more from them. (not anymore so much in Nestea's case but still)
Well good thing is in the end of the day rookies get plenty of Booth xp
