I did find out just like an hour before the game that it's really vulnerable against a certain strategy though, but I didn't have time to change my build and just prayed that FD wouldn't use it against me.
I wondered what ThorZaIN was talking about, now I know hehe .[TSL] Day 1 Recap and Interviews - Page 9

I just cannot help but feel that's a disservice to Tyler. Feeling like everyone is going to underestimate Tyler...sigh* Oh well, their loss since he's going to be winning the whole thing. Also, YEAH BOXER!!! Tyler was favored 91% to win that match, I think it was just Thorzain who was saying that :p Should have asked how Thorzain was killing all the burrowed banelings >.> | ||

BoxeR DCing -_- well, it is a "minor league" + Show Spoiler + this comment frustrated me, seemed to be serious and not sarcastic with his "minor league" comment. "I was wondering why boxer didn't control his marauders in game 2... I guess that was because cause of the lag..." "BoxeR... you really need to step it up" A little back and forth of 2 Knetizens: + Show Spoiler + "If there was a delay of 2 sec, its impossible to play the game. if i were to feel 2 sec delay while playing, its absurd. that means the game reacts after a sec or two following the mouse/keyboard input. I did watch fd's games and i saw some effects of lags in his games too (maybe they were just mistakes). If it was a bit of like sc1 w/e but 2 sec is ridiculous" "There's a good chance that people are lying about 2 sec delay, and every player has to deal with that lag. So i don't think it is appropriate to talk about who gets benefits/disadvantages from the lag. I personally believe if you are a pro you should be ready and able to deal with such problems." "If you are a pro, you want to perform at a perfect condition. Even Tiger Woods, i think he was quoted saying he does not play unless he is in perfect shape. it's not a pros responsibility to perform at a top level in any situation. A true pro is whom is able to perform at his/her full potential given ideal conditions. i don't think many of you guys have played on foreign servers, but there is instantaneous lag rather than lag that is continuous throughout the whole game." Seems to be many Koreans are focusing on the lag problems, specifically in BoxeR's set. I don't know if they are aware of the TL ruling on G1 or why it was made; I'll keep digging. Here is the coped GOMTV Knetizen forum responses, as translated by Brobear here + Show Spoiler + On March 20 2011 17:26 brobear wrote: Let me translate the GOMTV netizen comments for you guys. (Since the google translate button doesn't seem to work too well) Most of the comments are negative in regards to the overall skill level of players in the foreign scene. Korean netizens are brutal... -"ThorZaIN, who knocked out Fruitdealer, plays very well..." -"Was that really Fruitdealer? Why is he so bad???" -"Can't do much about it... They're playing in 2-second delay after EMP conditions..." -"Fruitdealer's condition is terrible... I wanted Korean dominance..." -"The Nightend and Boxer game is SO boring. Seems like a game played in Korea 6 months ago. I'm yawning while watching this after having seen MC's dynamic playing. Battles after maxing armies... This was the reason they reviewed sc2 to be boring before." -"NightEnd protoss can't even go into the preliminaries in our country, right? Lol this is hilarious." -"It's been a while since I've seen a protoss using colossi... It's still far away for the foreign scene to catch up to our level of play." -"Boxer's skill level... So bad." -"I feel for boxer's current state in the game... Don't know about the Terran's side of play, but there were a lot of points when boxer could've poked and done some damage, yet he couldn't. T_T boxer fighting." -"Can't make strong definitive attacks... Can't even hit code A round 16 wit this type of playing level..." -"Not just being a boxer anti-fan, but if you seriously consider boxer's skill level, doesn't seem like he can even hit code A round of 8's." -"Are these really matches played by progamers? Did I watch it wrong?" -"The EMP missed by boxer, the early marauder control in game 2, etc., are apparently all due to the quake in Japan and the lag caused due to it. And a few comments regarding the bad commentator (I guess for the Korean commentator who dubbed it, since Chill and Day9 are freakin awesome). I'll update it more tomorrow, if you guys would like! Wow, so apparently Korean netizens act just as rude and disrespectful as Non-Koreans, except with less X is OP/UP comments. | ||

And when it comes to Boxer.. I love how humble he is after the lagmatch. Hopefully he will win against Sen, even though I don't think he will. Lovely games! | ||
