Great tourney and stream. Personally, I felt RTDs Mitsu was point on and sick. Ive "known" Rob since SC2 (TTT even) and he's always been a solid spacer/turtle player. Just a solid fundamentals guy, and combined with X, he was THE guy to beat. If you could beat Rob, you were top tier. Anyway, watching his Leixa was solid typical Rob, bu his Mitsu had all that plus aggression? Quite sick. I certainly hope Rob sticks with him, I think he could be the top dog again playing Mitsu like that. As a Xiba player, he made a few mistakes that were very avoidable against his match with Wing Zero (I believe the fight that eliminated him) as in aggression at the wrong moments to get CH (which is what Xiba heavily relies on).
The other guy who impressed me a lot was Thuggish Pond. I've heard his name but had never seen him play. IMO, he was the guy who had the best/strongest fundamentals of the game. Made very little technical mistakes and was just spot on with his pokes, judgement and spacing. He's the type of guy who will always place high in majors, if not win them, because of play strength. It's crazy for me to be most impressed by an X player (sorry Leixa) because I hate her with a passion =P He's someone I'd never want to face in a tourney.
Finally, without surprise, mad props to Omega. Just wow man, I remember watching this dudes Zas in SC3 (him and KayzieCD were the most impressive SC3 players IMO) and he here goes pulling the same exact stuff in SCV. Just impeccable spacing and poking. Mad mad props.
