Aww darn...Calm and Stork lost T.T

I dunno why but I really like Calm and it pains to see him lose. Even though he's gotten into the Ro8, he still seems a really shaky/weak player compared to Hydra (even though Hydra's good, it's depressing to see that Calm can't really win when it matters insofar as this series has progressed)...

Also Stork ... @milkis (comment about stork fanboys being terrible): do you mean the fanboys in the live, broadcasted games, or the ones online (like me :3).


dont worry. lately calm almost always loses the 1st game in a series. I think he will be a much stronger force next week.


really hoping kal or stork make it through. no one will even care about the MSL if it's all zergs in the semifinals lol.

Please do that. If not for how awesome it would be to watch, if just to laugh at it.

I remember reading an interview from a previous OSL (a while ago, like 2008/2009 era) where flash wanted to make a Ro16 group be Taek-Baeng-Lee-Ssang but then one of stork/jaedong got put into another group before flash could do anything. I think it was incruit because bisu and flash were in the same group but I dont think either of them would of been a seed to pick a group.

I wish Stork steps up his game after losing game one, man he played terrible.

Even though Kal is good, you can't ignore the natural racial imbalance in BoX, so I didn't worry about it too much.

Really, great? Last time I checked, the most dominant player in the PvZ matchup was a Protoss. I don't buy the ZvP imba anymore. Maybe it's easier to be the Zerg if you're not very skilled, but if you know what you're doing, Protoss is so strong. They definately have the best harrass potential of all, sairs, d/h templars and reavers. Even zealots are awesome for harrassing in this matchup, much more effective than zerglings. Overall, Protoss have much more cost-effective units than Zerg. If everybody played with black sheep wall, I could see the matchup being 70/30 in Protoss's favour.
Sure the area effect shit of protoss is cool, but if you look at raw units, zerg deals more damage for the money(though protoss has higher life), so great does have a point there.

And funny how you mention zealots being more effective than lings, when protoss basically has only one build order to even use so they wouldnt get stomped by lings(forge fe), and in the late game, cracklings deal way more damage than speedlots, and are way faster.
Aah thats the stuff..

But that's the strength of Protoss. They aren't strong, but their health makes up for it. Zealots are so powerful with +1 and speed, and they are also very compact, which means they are much more effective in battle, especially inside a base since buildings make it hard to surround units, or target in general. Also, archons eat cracklings in late game, where zealots are mainly meant to be used as meat shields.

In theory, I think Protoss is superior in this matchup, but since Zerg is such a flexible race you are required to be in control and always know what they are doing. That's the big challenge.

As an interesting note, Bisu and Jaedong currently have the same PvZ/ZvP record (114-51). You should have said that before Jaedong beat Snow
