True demonstrates this carefree style which S rank players possess where he actively puts his early game in danger and tries to catch the opponent off guard when he gives pursuit. He is a really dominant player in this regard, only second to Bisu and Jaedong. You see wildcard plays at these early game skirmishes when no one has seen them before.
His group C winners game was a perfect study of the recent Zero vs Flash game I touched on about where you box the terran in and make him overcommit to making defence while you three hatch. Then, you let terran break out, but you are already at hive. He turns the concept of choke on its head, instead of the enemy defending that spot, he is defending there.
I'm really happy about these extended early game studies. Such manipulative masterpieces.

Love that it boils down to Best misplaying his response to Everything BTS did after losing mutas to the first maelstrom storm combo. It should not have worked but it was so out of the ordinary that Best fumbled.

Now that we saw their reaction, I just realized it's wild that BTS made another 11 Mutas AFTER knowing the first 5 got caught by the DA. Like Pusan said, the DA's mana must have been close to another maelstrom again. In the end it was killed at 80 mana, so if only Best left it in his base for another 20s the game would probably have ended sooner.

It's like you rush a Terran with 2 DTs and it doesn't work the first time and you follow it up by another 6 DTs but somehow the Terran thinks no way you would do it again so he lets his guard off.
