Either way it was pretty dumb of Fantasy. Even if your strategy works on 3 out of 4 starting positions, your plan for what to do if you spawn in that one bad position shouldn't be "just hope he doesn't 9pool"

He may have played game that is better for your eyes, but better game is decided by result, thus shine's play was superior So the sole factor of who played better, is the winner. So every Terran that was destroyed on Battle Royal by zerg just played way worse, it wasn't the map or any other factor? | ||

If he had canceled his hatch, flash would have thrown up a bunker at jaedongs choke and it would have been gg anyway. I dont understand why all korean progamers attack the bunker with everything when the sunken is up and out of reach from the bunker. Just kill the scvs and ur safe! | ||

BTW: shine's games did not come off as sloppy to me, rather he missed a few shuttles he could've killed with scourges and missed a DT or two, but he still won... I see plenty of people who are a lot worse than shine get up to finals of starleagues. Give someone some credit who really trucked it out through a hardass bracket. | ||

Btw Chen, now that the VOD is out, I can explain to you why I disagree with your post. Go watch from 16:34 to 16:50 of game 2. You know, that fail storm drop that also had a DT fall out the shuttle's ass...which proceeded to rack up 9 drone kills + a sunk. | ||

You don't even need 200 apm for that! Against a D level toss.... So hilarious all the hate for Shine, people are so illogical, if someone wins their games then they're the ones you want to see in the next round, you can't just dismiss the guy who's been owning everyone just because you think he doesn't deserve to be there, if he got there he deserves it... | ||

1st game: I don't think my opponent was aware of the build, so it went exactly like the game Flash did against JD. Sniped OL then bunker rushed to victory. (C+) 2nd game: Zerg opened with 9 pool scouted with a late drone and OL, sniped both OL and the drone, and FE'd with Mech, and then won. (C) 3rd game: Zerg opened with 9 pool and scouted my rax with an early drone. Did not snipe anything. Zerg made 6 lings, but I FE'd, defended with a bunker, went with mech, and won with relative ease. (B-) So... the build definitely provides an advantage at mid-level at least. | ||

I'm going to laugh if Terran winrate on HBR suddenly shoots way, way up because Zergs keep getting their OL sniped. But wouldn't 7rax be hard countered by 9pooling and just not sending your OL out? After learning your lesson having your OL sniped by that build a few times, of course. | ||
