Outsider Destination ROTK
Sorry I couldn't find pics that were as epic as yesterdays. I'm still looking for Stork's WTF ugly face. If anyone happens to have that, I'd appreciate if you could link me to it somewhere.

Stork / Calm 2:1 both games :> Easy !

I think Lux will handle the upstart. And, I'd love to see Stork score one vs. Terran for the Protoss, who have been out of form lately. GL I'll be watching this tonight for sure.
|
|
STOOOOOOOOORK Yeah stork is going to own some terran ass tonight..
And I hope for Clam 2:0 (I hate lux dont know why... but I hate that zerg... lol)

The only way Lux can get any play time nowadays is through a seed...from one year ago.

With his improved ZvP he was able to snatch a MSL, but just lost it somehow. Hopefully watching his bro tear it up lately has somewhat inspired him to go improve his game some more.

Calm is a lock, but I don't think Stork is a heavy favorite. Then again, I always seem to underrate him. The guy pops up in most every tournament to eliminate a few players more exciting than him...maybe it's Up's turn to lose.
|
UP and lux advancing! i can smell it
|
|
I'm predicting and hoping for Calm and Upmagic to get through~
|
Go Stork!
And...Luxury, perchance? Don't really care either way, though...

Calm vs Luxury is more of a toss-up, especially seeing how its mirror ZvZ, than Stork vs Upmagic. I assure you, Upmagic's TvP is decent but nowhere good enough to touch Stork's godly PvT
|
Calm and Stork easy.
Calm's match is definitely not a toss up imo as he has beat JD and Effort both in a Bo5 ZvZ series recently and has a lot of momentum and Luxury has been sucking for a while. He also hasn't really played in like forever since he got out of the MSL so yea definitely Calm.

LUXURY + YARNC FOR THE WIN
|
|

I assume calm kept his lings up his ramp to avoid a runby? I'd think he'd at least try to kill the lings on his hatch tho.
|
Calm didn't even try to use his lings all he did was micro his mutalisks and he still lost the air battle.
Wow TLPD is updated for this game already.

Wow Lux, nice micro there.

Very nice ZvZ from Luxury :o
|
|
|
Has Lux been preparing in a shaolin monastery all time since his last appearance?
|
|
That was a complete build order win. Lux's overlord going the right way won him the game.
|
Wow Luxury just completely outmicro'ed Calm in first muta battle (although I think he may have had a muta advantage).
|
he had the advantage (i think 6 to 4 based on larva), but that was amazing micro too
|

BO decides the way you scout?

no LR?
Game One - Lux overwhelms Calm with a 2nd hatch in his main and higher muta count/scourge micro. Thoug Calm's spire seemed earlier, he opted for expanding and was caught with lower muta count as his expo was being raided.

The overlord information allowed lux to adjust his build optimally to give him a decisive advantage.

um... Without that gosu sourge sniping... that would not have been a BO win.

Why was Calm's 2nd hatch far later than Lux's and why could Calm only build 3 mutas initially while Lux morphed 5? I thought they had mirror builds.

Dunno why Calm decided to send Ovie down. Seems the distance to 9o'clock is shorter.

They weren't mirrors :S
|
Anyone notice how Clams lings just seemed to evaporate? Then Lux has Lings to absorb Muta glaves. Not to mention, he had enough confidince in his micro not to make but 2 or 4 scourge, and just destroyed about 12 of Clams.
|
dude calm lost cuz he expanded. did you not notice that? all you noticed was overlord scouting? hatcheries are the big zerg buildings by the way. luxury played better, period
|
Calm: 9pool, Lux: Overpool. Luxury got the second hatchery out mad faster, but calm could've turned it around by expanding had luxury not used the earlier larva to mass mutas and take him out. If that push had failed it could've been anyone's game.

Clam also made a few too many lings early which delayed second hat.
|
Um calm wouldve lost his nat hatch without the scourge sniping. The scourge sniping just made t he game a lot shorter. Calm was fucked with or without lux sniping the scourge.

overlords going the right direction! /stupidity
|
Luxury 9 gas! That's interesting. Calm 12 gas, 11 pool.
|
13 pool from Calm (someone said the commentators said this.. it looked late too). Maybe he's trying to lose.
|
Calm takes a fast expansion. Luxury fast lair (of course).
|
Calm has a slight advantage from the openings.
|
Expand for Calm. No for Luxury.
|
Lux adding his trademark second hatch in main.

his spire timing doesn't seem THAT far behind
|
His spire has the exact same timing...
|
Lings fencing at lux's ramp. Roughly equal numbers. Lux's spire is slightly ahead of Calm's. PS-yeah, closer timings than I had thought. LRing is making me miss bits of the game.
|
green has a lot more lings
|
Lux has an advanatge now. Calm'slings left!
|
Now THIS game is all about micro. If calm can secure his second gas. He will take it...if he fucks up lux can punish him badly.
|
LUX sweeps almost all calms lings
|
Lux attacking towards calm with zerglings, but mutas are out for both now.
|
|
Anddd calm fucks up Nice play by lux.

There is one MSL winner on that stage. Only one.

Now we see why there was no lux at STX masters
|
I don't undertand something. Destination is knows like a cheese map sometimes right ? So in ZvZ, it's pretty to fast expand I guess. Why Calm didn't make the good choice to fast lair ?

I agree. He knew his BO would be scouted. I can understand FE on a 4 player but not on a 2. Especially when youre down in a series. Not safe.

Am I wrong or Calm lost cause he exped at his nat and wasted 2larvas for drones instead of Mutas >_<

Calms build was fine...he didnt execute properly. Calm's spire timing was the exact same as lux's. Calm needed to pull his lings back instead of losing them and then micro a lot better than he did in the scourge/muta fights.
|
Calm is great when he prepares for his opponents, but Luxury totally outclassed him those two games.

Is this a sign Luxury is going to stop sucking?

Pretty much sums it up.
I mean, against a scrub Zerg Calm probably woulda cleaned house, but obviously Luxury actually practiced hard for this since this is all he has going for him right now.
And as for MSL, I'm going to guess that the STX house thinks Iris will win or something? :S

Does anyone know who this commentator is? Is he permanently casting for OGN or just for WCG?
Is this the guy who replaced TheMarine?

Heh, I hope Upmagic goes biomech against Stork since Stork will pretty much walk over Upmagic either way

Yeah I would think they should force the players to play on the maps that will be used during the actual WCG so the players who are best at whatever maps are used at WCG advance. Though Korea doesn't care too much who wins WCG they do care that a Korean must win first place.

King dom is on the left. Kim Carrier in the middle (I think..) and I'm not sure who the guy on the right is.

Fast expand for Stork. Little bit risky imo.
|
14 nexus.. Stork has balls
|
Omg lucky scouting by upmagic. Lets see if he can punish the greedy expo.
|
|
bunker rush! looks like it
|
2 gates up for stork and core just warped in
|
|
|
Stork loses the nexus to the bunker!
|
|
Massive advantage for Upmagic. He didnt even need to pull more than 2 scvs...
|
|
Wow. File this under "things to consider before FE vs Terran".

stork expanding at back mineral only

vult got glitched! starsense by up

Upmagic will rape this game. Stork is going to have to play the game of his life to come back from this.
|
expansion denied lol11
up expanding again!
|
Stork is just letting Upmagic know he doesnt need those 400minerals to beat him. <.<

It was pretty standard a while ago as well, I remember FBH vs Much on Dest than several other games after that. It's just an option vs Protoss FE.
|
Damn I was hoping to see Up make about 8 factories at once and go for a push. Like Flash did vs Shuttle
|
Upmagic going for the Flash build he's building 5th cc around the time of his 2nd fac.

Lol saying Upmagic is playing like the former Elky

Brilliant game sense from upmagic...his 4 cc off 1 fact turns out to be entirely correct.

Woo 5th, you can do it UpMagic.

looks like double armory push for up!

DT causing terrible terrible damage OMG.

look at that stork macro, around 8-10 gates up?
|
|
Wow that dt drop might let stork back in this lol.. Costing a shitload in mining time.
|
|
|
this going to get into a long macro game me thinks
each players expanding his side of the map
|
Upmagic has factories now finally....
|
Up replies with tank drop play which did...nothing.
|
Upmagic drop of 4 tanks was a total sacrifice too.
|

kona's stream goes down

stork is maxed. up at 140. ruh roh.

Upmagic gets caught completely out of position and unseiged. Gets his army run over by stork sigh.
|
How could upmagic be playing this poorly...
|
United States13143 Posts
Stork decides he's tired of screwing around with arbiters and makes a pure zealgoon break.
Up responds with a hilarious face.
|
That was terrible.. Upmagic blew it.
|
Scratch that Upmagic is at like 60 supply now that his army got raped by a 200/200 protoss army. Upmagic should have been maxed ages ago with his 5 bases even considering the DT drop.
|
Wow that was a horrid place to siege v.v

Upmagic's new nickname = Terran

Upmagic planned the whole game so well but that was a very bad push.

Dragoons doing the steamroller impression....
GG from UP
|
Please tell me someone got a screenshot of that face
|
Up GG's
|
Note that Upmagic actually pulled his vults back.
|
that is the worst fail i've seen in a while.
WHAT - HAPPENED
also this new music is almost good... but just not good enough.

Cmon buddy smarten up for next game

|
That should be Up's next magic trick. How to make your terran army disappear.
|
perfect example of toss imbaness
toss goes 12 nex, T destroys it toss gets maxed up while T is at 140 toss losses arbiter, doesnt affect much T makes one mistake, loses the game =< *sad*

Wow I had to go afk for a bit around when the DT harass started and Up loses despite taking down Stork's early Nexus? Uuuuugh

If T mistake makes him lose his entire tank army.. then T loses...
|
I think the advantage was mostly due to the map and UpMagic's failure not some PvT imbalance.

Uh no. It was because Up mass expanded. Hell, he was doing 1 fact 5 ccs. His army size and push timing could have been better.

he had his vultures way behind the tanks doing nothing and he got flanked lol crushed

The advantage was mostly due to up being bad.

4000 minerals? Surprised he didn't build another 5 CCs with that.

If you follow PL and Leagues lately, Protoss is getting hammered. Protoss IMBA is a myth that survives only in D rank.
|
Nobody is mentioning the 4 Tanks + Dropship Up threw away for nothing.

good thing i lbd stork tho ;D

WOW UPMAGIC'S HAIR LOOKS SO FUNNY HAHAHAHA <3

Gogo 12 nex again by pull your probes properly!

Upmagic would've had that if he simply did a 3 base allin timing attack. He had such a huge econ advantage over Stork.
That Flash mass expo strategy is tempting but it's a horrible choice because entering lategame without a decisive advantage is basically autoloss for T.
|
|
White guy scouted. Announcers seem amused
|
Lol he did it. What a ballsy guy.
|
one fact off 5 ccs? what's with this guy? 4000 min = a million vultures. 200/200 instantly
|
lol, Stork is so confident.

It looks like he was up all night getting wasted.

I don't see the point of trying to get a vulture surround on like 10 goons with tank support. Kept throwing away units while barely slowing Stork. And because of that he didn't have enough units to even protect his expansions.
|
I have no doubt upmagic is a pothead.Just look at that hair! Even more reason to love him!
Oh.. did anyone get a pick of him sticking his tongue out after his army got wiped in game 1?

calm need to improve his muta micro first.. he beat jaedong and effort because he did his homework. but luxury was not in the spotlight, playing like 1 game/week or less.. and although he's been sloppy, he was once the 2nd best overall zerg. Good!

Wow i am surprised by Luxury because he has been playing awefull lately.Still Calm has the finals upcomming he probably doesnt really care about this tournament.

Given that, why on Earth would he not practice ZvZ?
No point in making excuses: Jaedong is the only one who can consistently win ZvZs against strong opposition (and even he has been having trouble lately).

Just because someone practices more or less doesn't mean they win. Theres skill involved.
