Doesn't make any sense to me ?

Although it reminds me of the time they didn't have the intro ready for some SL (ever?) and the teaser simply said "It's Fishing"

Now they're showing Shinhan Bank Starleague Season 3's match 1330, Savior vs Iris, game 1 I think.


This looks like it's Savior v Iris G5. Based on your other post, i'd say that G5 is more appropriate for that


Yep it's the 5set - the top of the screen reads 2:2.

Yeah, that's why in the previous game of Boxer vs that STX dude, the box at bottom right read: "(STX Guy) must have thought: 'Boxer shouldn't have so much units...' "

Haha yeah, commentators are going like how fast paced this game is, that even the observer is having problems catching up with the action.

Commentator just said : "Are these two even human!?"

Number 4: Savior vs Iris Game 5, Shinhan Bank Starleague Season 3

Reason: Epic fail content of dropship... that caused the greatest upset at that time.

The thing that frustrates me about this game is just how all-over-the-place Iris's MnM control is. I understand he has to dodge swarms, but he's just running amok in Savior's base most of the time without actually killing anything. He'll take each evo chamber down to 50% health, attack a hatchery for a while, stop to get one shot off on a lurk...

Also there are so many occasions where some attention to micro would have changed the game around - for example, the time when he decided to set up another drop (which unloaded on top of lurks and died) rather than micro his ~12 MnM at the 2:00 expo to kill its hatchery or drones.

Also, does Iris irradiate a single defiler? He has this massive vessel cloud and it looks like he's just throwing occasional irradiates on hydras and lurks, when defilers are absolutely destroying him.

Of course, these criticisms have the benefit of hindsight. Iris played out of his mind in this game overall (his macro was sick sick sickkk) but it's just frustrating to watch him run around with so many groups of MnM inside Savior's base without actually killing anything.

The game was too fast-paced, commentators, observers, and probably even the players themselves were simply playing too chaotic. And Iris probably thought that irradiating lurkers were higher priority, or that if he wanted to irradiate a defiler, he would risk losing vessels to hydras/scourges.

Commentators are saying stuff like : "Are they even human?" "If this keeps up, we're going to have a heart attack" and stuff haha

Watching this makes me want Savior to return to his former self

I laugh every single time I see that train of defilers

Yeah, the game is just complete chaos - it's really fun to watch, but Iris probably could have benefited from a bit slower, more deliberate style.
