    FOu is stepping up, but I think infestors could have done better than mutas

    re: the map pool

    tbh I think they're just trying out different systems to see what they're going to use for when the non-open GSLs start next year

    I like dreamhack's system as well, but I thought the old system was fine as well. If they got bored of watching the same match ups on the same maps, then they should at least allow some sort of input from the players. A zerg randomly getting steppes vs a Terran is almost an auto loss.

    A zerg getting Jungle Basin vs Protoss is practically the same. It's bad for the game.

    I dunno what zerg wins "automatically" vs Protoss... scrap station? I have no clue. PvZ is what I know the least out of the non-mirror match ups, for obvious reasons

    this is going to be harder to find but also harder to defend

    re: map pools, I think they just need to start casting out for good custom maps and rid themselves of their reliance on Blizzard maps.

    Scrap Station is probably the worst PvZ map, and was incidentally the 3rd map in the GSL3 qualifiers.

    I've taken 15Nexus at my opponent's third on Steppes

    It works against anyone but Zerg because overlords usually float there

    I'm multitasking and guestimating; think it was low teens, though.

    It really does not make sense to me how a pro-gamer can not scout the other bases occasionally, especially when you see a Zerg 1-basing.

    I hope SC wins just so we can find out what the SC in his name stands for and for Artosis to be WRONG and for it to be something like "Singing Cow foU"

    and i guarantee after artosis says that someone will ask the question if scfou wins

    Seeing those Marines waddle away from the slow Banelings was cringe-worthy, too.

    I think that timing was an accident rather than calculated, the match up until then was so chaotic there is no way any timings would survive

    I don't think FD expected to win after that baneling splash against the marines because at first he was hesitant about sniping tanks but when no marines showed up he got bolder

    EDIT: Yeah I saw him hesitate while attacking the tanks too Dhal, but then he went for it.
