thanks for making this. calm was my favorite player to watch this PL season. every game i watched him play was so informative and always broke the monotony of standard play in PL. Back then he still lost to most of the big names he came across and some of them even made him look foolish. But he persevered and now he is poised to really prove himself.

Calm has a 12.5% chance of winning this MSL.

I can't believe he made it through effort so easily. The games didn't even make it to the muta stage, they were just outright bo wins...
I thought effort would dispatch him easily, but now I fear that even Jaedong might lose to him...

We will see.
But it's weird.
Honnestly today, Calm played really well but EffOrt played so bad. Really the match wasn't interesting to watch I think.
Jaedong vs Canata was more exciting

Overestimating Bisu a little?

He is not immortal in PvZ, at least not as much as he once was.

Watch Calm get destroyed by JD 3-0 or 3-1 if he gets another easy bo win.

there's no way Calm can beat JD in a Bo5 I feel :\. But I would say he could beat Bisu.

So glad he made it to the semi's though :D

People really do go out of their minds when a player wins a couple of games. Yet nobody even questions how those games were won.

Effort's two losses today were build order losses. Sure, occasionally a Zerg can fight back from a 12-Hatch against a 9-pool. But this is rare and hard. Effort's loss here was basically luck. Any competent Zerg player ought to be able to win with a 9-pool vs. 12-Hatch.

So Calm's win doesn't prove anything, because of how he won.

Except he's really good at mind games. How is not limited to merely what's in game.

Effort was greedy, Calm anticipated this thus the 9 pool both games. Mind games Calm > Effort

don't forget that game 1 was a completely straight-up win too.

The thing is, Calm wins a whole lot of games like this. At this stage, you can't call it luck. The guy is strategically brilliant. No, his mechanics aren't S-class, but he's proven again and again that they don't need to be to take down top players.
