Wouldn't it be more cruel if it was 3-3 with Flash having lost his match, and then proceeds to lose the ace match? Give them hope, then snatch it away. Oppa Bane style.
EDIT: Sorry, I thought you meant tears of sadness. Go Flash!

What was wrong with Stats and Wooki?
The "cool" trend these days.. first it was Bogus.. then Jaehoon and the t8 crew outside of baby and now KT.. Pretty soon Bisu is probably going to change his name to "Dishwasher"

I don't know the average BW game length, but many SC2 games last between 10 and 20 minutes, usually ending around the 15 minute mark or so.
This kind of sets the baseline for a BO3 to be done in an hour in tournament schedules.

PL was originally bo7 with 2v2 matches, then became bo5, then became bo7 again, then became bo5 without aces, then became weird hybrid format, and now it's back to bo7.
Wouldn't it be cool if KeSPA and the big entertainment groups (YG, SM, JYP, etc.) collaborate so that each KeSPA team is represented by a K-pop cheerleading team? It could be a win-win promo venture, each share costs equally (though KeSPA would have more to gain, due to K-pop's stronger branding). Live performance will be tough, due to scheduling. So have the K-pop cheerleaders pre-record some fun routine, and show them when their teams come up.
I think GSL had something closely similar awhile back, where members of a K-pop girl group (forget which) would endorse one of the 4 players in the group.
For fun's sake, which K-pop groups would you to like to see represent which teams? Personal bias aside on the top ones (e.g. SNSD, T-ara, KT, SKT, etc.), it would be nice to match them according to their personalities and styles.

KT - I'd prefer an orchestra..but anyway...if I had to choose a girl's boy's group T-ara or Sistar

They do get K-pop groups to perform at finals, but it would probably be too costly to hire them often; they definitely won't do it for free.
proleague really does feel like brothers in the trenches. when u come back and give ur bro a hug for helping u during training to survive the war, its kinda touching somehow.
Can a Zerg going 3 base on Arkanoid stop a Terran from going 3 base as well? If not, how does a Zerg stop this greedy macro play? Seems pretty tough for a Zerg to play late game, due to the difficulty to hold a 4th or 5th.

Cool -> Fruitdealer = became the 1st GSL champion and had 85k in the bag Zergbong -> Nestea = became early SC2 Zerg Bonjwa and $$$$$$$$ Iron -> MC = became early SC2 Protoss Bonjwa and $$$$$$$$ Jaehoon -> Argo = became the ace player of Team 8 and beat Flash. Bogus -> Innovation = became the "Best Terran in the world" of Artosis and Code S quaterfinalist.

The power of name changing.
This is from one point of view. From other if most of them changes their names of course they will make an achievements )
Just keep calling them by their old names and have them know via Twitter (or elsewhere, via reporters, translators, coaches, etc.) that you prefer their old IDs and that changing your IDs all the time is a really bad PR move.

And his composition is actually better - or well, now sOs is making archons.
fuuuuck he almost had that too but yeah...that archons soaked up all the damage and his great immortal flank failed because there were too many units for shy.... well at least hots is sure to lessen the laser wars

Nope. HoTS just has a different color laser (void rays).
i missed the first half of flash vs flying. did flash scout at the start? it seems each time he doesnt do an early scout he often loses.i think he knows he could have won that engagement had he handled it better. so not really a dissapointing game since it's another game he will reflect on and improve.
Flying played very good! Dropping the 3rd Nexus was very gutsy but it payed off big time. Sad to see Flash loose though. Well sad to see KT loose this bad. Good games overall tonight though =D

i didn't watch it since GSTL was on, but the english commentary is shitty as usual huh
Uh... Well at least the english casters probably have better reading comprehension than you.
Misreading FPL as SPL is hardly considered as having poor reading comprehension. You might want to figure out what reading comprehension is before you run your mouth.

They're improving though. 1-4 this time!
But it's still painful to watch.

Traded Zero for Flash cause i thought that Flash had 2 easy opponents this week, but he lost meh. But i have Zest on my team atleast. Also traded Soulkey for Stork on my anti. That turned out well though.
