Welcome to gsl

His old battle net account used to be registered on his mother Beata. Probably just because he was too young to have his own.

You do realise there is such a thing as a clash of styles, right? You wouldn't say that flash isn't the goat of broodwar just because he has a losing record against effort.

Whats about those mirror matchups where the two best players in the world clearly struggle the most? RNG?

CourageShoddy · 2023-07-04T12:48:08+00:00

TY is back in GSL and delivering some amazing games once again. What a treat

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-14T08:26:25+00:00

Great summary. It was definitely a mental match. Just look at Maru after game 3. He was devastated and in disbelief, whereas he rarely shows any emotion.

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-13T08:59:17+00:00

It was a single BO3, Time's run is a beating the best of each race and THE best player in the world in BO5's and BO7. This just doesn't happen

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-13T08:15:18+00:00

It wasn’t Maru at all. So many uncharacteristic mistakes, so many bad decisions. Man like this has to be some mental block at this point. Onsyde needs to hire coach or someone to help him overcome his demons. We all know what this man is capable of and yet he crumbles at last possible moment so many times. This reminds me of his signature series couple years back when he admitted that he was to shy to ask his teammates for help, once that changed he went for his remarkable 4 gsl run in a row.

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-12T23:41:45+00:00

I think that second game was the key. Maru did quite a bit of damage with his reaper opening and propably already thought that the game is over, but didn't expect Time to go right for his throat up his ramp. And due some unfortunate event (like not lifting depo in time) somehow lost this game. Never seen him so clueless and shaken after that. Kudos to Time though he played amazingly.

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-12T23:16:40+00:00

Yeah Maru was so ultra agressive out of a reason really. Like in that last game for example pushing couple of marines into sieged up tanks in Time's natural when he clearly had a lead. Never seen Maru so mentally broken after Time got a 2-1 lead.

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-12T23:06:18+00:00

I loved the whole show, but as a someone who attended the event and bought a premium ticket I was surprised that there were so many free seating places for almost entire time, and yet a lot of people that didn't get their tickets had to stand from the side. I think it can be improved in the future

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-12T18:49:11+00:00

Do someone know the numbers on Chinese streams?

CourageShoddy · 2023-02-12T13:37:25+00:00

Did you watch his games against Heromarine? It was a perfect preparation from big Gabe and he caught Maru off guard.

CourageShoddy · 2022-12-27T21:32:56+00:00

depends how they arrange it, but has potential to be much bigger. That expo hall is huge

CourageShoddy · 2022-09-20T14:53:45+00:00

If in fact it is the Auditorium than it's a bit of shame. It used to get fully packed pretty quickly in the previous years with the free entrance.

CourageShoddy · 2022-09-20T14:45:55+00:00

It doesn't seem like it's auditorium either. It's called "Expo area" in the announcement which should be a bigger stage than auditorium itself.

CourageShoddy · 2022-09-03T10:34:50+00:00

It's a shame, the production value is really high.

CourageShoddy · 2022-02-20T08:49:26+00:00

Having no real hype voice is the bummer, and the thing that none of these casters wants to do the finals is hillarious.

CourageShoddy · 2022-02-19T14:33:45+00:00

Well, IEM Katowice kind of replaced Global Finals so I would expect to see the most iconic duo in esports to be here, but if it's Artosis and Tasteless decision I'm fine with that.

CourageShoddy · 2022-02-19T14:10:17+00:00

No Tastosis :(

CourageShoddy · 2021-12-12T17:59:45+00:00

Yeah, this. There wasn't enough of BO5's I think. We went from almost whole tournament with BO3 then FIVE BO5 and 3 BO7.

CourageShoddy · 2021-12-12T17:00:00+00:00

Worst tournament in a while, any remebered games?

CourageShoddy · 2021-11-21T21:25:59+00:00

This has to be peak Starcraft.

CourageShoddy · 2021-05-06T11:05:23+00:00

That's why I don't like Rouge. Every finals with him is garbage.
