Well I'm conflicted about InCa vs DRG. On the one hand, InCa knows how brutalized he got by Nestea and has likely been working on his PvZ like a madman. He showcased some decent play in the last PvZ games he played (forget who against, though). He could very well surprise us.
On the other hand though, Protoss as a whole has been getting brutalized by Zerg in Korea, outside Korea, and on ladder, and DRG is one of the very best of them, with InCa being merely a very good Protoss, and not counted among the likes of HuK or MC.

im solely not convinced inca's pvz is going to be anywhere near up to par
drg being great at zvp is a small factor in this, i think
any other code a zerg would be inca i think, i have never been impressed by him in the matchup, and the nestea failings were more his team not finding a smart build i think

Vanvanth knocked out in g3 by a SCV Marine Tank Banshee all-in
That marine/tank/banshee all-in has been brutalizing Protoss lately. You would think they should have it figured out by now.

It has been brutalizing Protoss since the release of the game.
It is not so much that it has to be figured out. It is like a 4gate. You can absolutely know it is coming and still make a mistake in control when the time comes and suddenly you lose.
Since release? I only remember seeing it within the past month or two. There were other versions of a one-base 1/1/1 all-in but not quite like this, and it seems to be this build that is giving even high level Protoss a ton of trouble. Is there a consensus on the best response to it? I've seen both Collosus and speedlot responses but I'm not sure which is more effective.

Everytime I've faced any sort of 1/1/1 with tanks, ravens, banshees, and marines and held it, I've done so with mostly sentry/zealot/immortal, with later stalker warpins to clean up the banshees once everything else is dead. I've either crushed the push convincingly or died horribly to it.
I will admit, i haven't seen any games of it recently that everyone is buzzing about, but how many ways are there really to execute such a push?

People have been doing it with a raven since Open 1 (Polt I think)
I'm pretty sure Colossus is the best response, I can't imagine handling the cloak banshees while investing in speed and the TC
TvT is so awesome 0_0 Viking Thor Hellion Medivac Raven Tank whatever let's great players really show their stuff. I think Vikings have killed more thors than any other unit in this series
Also DRG is going to utterly destroy Inca. There's no question of it.

I really really don't like Wolf. On a personal note, I dislike the way he lets his voice go up at the end of every sentence like he's asking a question. Idiot teenage girls talk like that, not grown men casting a professional tournament.
That aside (since I know not everyone agrees with me on the above point) he is just so prone to saying the most completely wrong and stupid things so frequently that it annoys the hell out of me.

Those are two things I've personally tried to work on, heh.
Seguer you are the best. Listening to you doesn't put me to sleep at least. Everytime I turn GSL on and it's not Tastosis I try to watch it butzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I really wish Wolf would stop with the analytical casting. He is not good at it. He is a good play-by-play caster but that is as far as it goes.

Eh, I guess I could just wake up a bit earlier or something, but ehhhhhh.
EDIT: Some of those cut features are crazy (cool), like the Starport that can fly, build units while flying and restore energy to another unit, and Cannons that can teleport to another pylon.
I'm pretty glad they removed that one.

Seguer have you ever thought about applying for GSL casting?
He always has some silly excuses like 'work' or 'girlfriend' or something like that
I'm pretty his excuse was "I was going to try out but the times conflicted with my photo shoot for FHM Australia"

Work: I love my job, it pays like crazy, and I can't take a whole month or whatever off, especially as this is a new job (3 months next week).
Girlfriend: If/when we go overseas we're probably going to Korea, but this is for a holiday, not so I can spend most of the time casting (and it wouldn't be for more than a week anyway)

But see, Wolf talks over his bad jokes while not understanding them and making even worse jokes that he thinks are related.
Which in my opinion is a pretty bad scene.
i kinda want to stay up for the drg matches but i don't think im going to make it

But what if I go? Then you get to hang out with me! And we could see if the rest of the Perthpax crew wanted to do lunch or something!
It's amazing
I can forgive his dorkish personality. Its pro video games.
But sometimes he just says things that are so incredibly wrong.

I'll be so sad if Time Bomb doesn't make it back into the game in some form. That was the coolest looking ability ever.
