I agree completly about the brilliance of the move and how it's probably the best play this year. But I'm not as nuts over Ra as I was when he was dominating OGN and when he first beat Nada to win the MBC league. Why? What's changed?

To me, his pvt game has gone to shit recently. First instead of going toe to toe with Oov in OGN groups, he does some wierd ass off cannon move that doesn't work at all. Then he loses to Ddang trying the same thing, then he loses to Doggi! I mean come on, Doggi? He played his two games vs friend really well, especially game one where he just played a solid pvt game. When he first one MBC people were saying how he's untested because he didn't go up against any zergs, he had a really solid pvt. Now everyone's saying that he's the best pvz in the world but his pvt is lacking.

I dunno i'm just a fan of pure solid play against T, nothing tricky, just goon ob opening and just out play him. If anyone can do it, Ra can but it just seems like he pussies out against Ts who have a rep of bieng tough.

It's just sad when a player of his caliber fails to qualify for at LEAST the challange leage because of a player like Doggi.



Nice analysis.

I agree that Ra's lost some of his old form of late. Ra's cannon rush v oov in the Gillette OSL was a cop-out, I agree. And his loss v Doggi was just plain silly...

Funny how I just made a thread ragging on Pro Toss players copping out with "cute" bullcrap...and then I see this VOD...

I still stick with what I said, but in this case I'll make an exception. Not cheese, unorthadox maybe, but not cheese.

Any player can do that in a live game with tons of pressure and high stakes... whether he's playing to win is another story =)

Great play by Ra. While Friend isn't exactly best of the best, he is a very skilled player indeed and couldn't possibly have been expecting a strategy like this, let alone one perfectly executed.

why would there possibly be lots of pressure and high stakes if the player isnt playing to win?

I accidentally watched the first game thinking it was game two. I was wondering what was so special about it, and actually went back to watch the end again to see if I missed something. What a dumbass I am...

Game 2 was very sexy
