Disclaimer: Everything I write may or may not be accurate.

Flash vs Zenio

Smart Engi bay block opening by Flash. The ultimate weapon used a strong 3 base Tank/Marine with a opening support by a single Banshee & Raven support on Caldeum. Terran favored map if you ask me, it has a gold base and chokes everywhere. Even when Flash had his forward sieged army crushed, he still managed to send a small drop to pressure zenio and gave him a lead when destroy spawning pool. Small depot hole in his wal but still it is clear that Flash has insane macro, with good pre-splitting/macro. Flash Rating 8 close to 9 but that supply depot hole is a critical mistake that a better zerg could have exploited.

Zenio had decent macro but seemed to have gotten thrown off by the engi bay and just picked off depots instead of trying to do proper damage with the mutas. didnt defend the drop well at all, if you got mutas use them, no ling micro at the mineral line cost him a spawning pool. Killed the reinforcements well though. Building the tech forward at his natural seemed smart, but when the flash pushed eaasily into his nat it lost its charm.3 out of 10 Godslayers

EGJYP vs. Who?
3 / 10 EGJYP Looked slightly surprised by the blunt blink attack. He opted to go for a safer 3 gate robo trying to play safe vs an aggressive opponent. Opponent blinked in and bashed the crap out of JYP. Meh, people who say PvP has evolved will probably be dissappointed by that match lol.

Action vs. Thorzain:

Died to a pretty standard 3 base muta/bling on antiga. 3 out of 10 Actionmen for Thorzain

Thorzain played standard and died to an aggressive build vs his own greedy.

Jaedong vs. Stats
Stats executes a strong warp prism on a P favored map vs Jaedong who didnt react very well to the immortal allin. Herp de derp Im glad we nerfed the infestor! 7 out of 10 cause a protoss needs to be able to do this push.

Jaedong didnt look very good in in this matchup. Every goddamn pro zerg player NEEDS to prepare a specific counter for a freaking immortal rush. 4 out of 10 Dongs.

Classic vs. Fantasy
Fantasy 8 / 10 looked solid in a difficult to win bio vs. mech game

Ace match in the second Pro League Match.
Rain 7/ 10 vs Trap: Still looks like the master of PvP Lategame. Still looked vulnerable in against Last. Came through for his team despite he lost earlier on..

Offtopic: Montecristo seems like a very good commentator, very good at hyping without sounding like hes on the payroll of kespa. Honest excitment for the game. Even though he says he hasnt casted much sc2, hes pretty much in the top 3 for me now.

When DOA tried to hype the foreigner team EGTL after they all got outplayed made me cringe. Let them prove themselves, this is a long running league with a strong tradition.



Epic Quotes of the night:
"The epic fight of Man vs. Rock!"
"What would Hunter Missile do?"

I missed the games yesterday but saw this score. This gives me an idea of how things went down. What a painful way to start Proleague for the newcomers.

Considering he beat DRG last week in the MVP champion I was not surprised. I bet money on that fight.

I am not too sure if JD really played badly at all.
Immortal sentries all in makes you look scrub level bad because there isn't much micro can be done on the zerg side as long as the forcefields are good.
he actually WAY over prepared for the push, staying on only around 45 ish drones and made many too many lings and not enough roaches
He tried to set up flanks and bait out quite a lot of forcefields right before it arrives the natural but it was all over when the push arrives at his natural and still has sentry energy remaining for more FFs.

That map makes this kinda push so very difficult to stop, I am thinking it's better to just go for a base trade and hope for the best
