It was a much more subtle build than people were predicting. Something that used to be used on a particular map, which he employed on Match Point for the win. | ||

Shine likes to pressure his opponents into mistakes with his hyper-aggressiveness and movie did well not to succumb to a pace that would have given shine the advantage. instead, he made solid strategic decisions that steadily gave him an upper hand as the game progressed. -- i was responding to someone but i dont remember who I think it was that Movie was just as ultra aggressive. Really screwed Shine up because the veteran players considered him a newb and just focused on securing a macro advantage. ALL the players know Shine has a weak as piss late game. That's why most of the vets focused on trying to grab eco. They all thought, secure my third and this is over. The problem is shine's very good at abusing defensive players. As we saw today, Shine's a lost kitten when it comes to defending himself. | ||

I'm not comparing, I'm just saying Movie has the potential to play great PvT and he has shown that he can play great PvT despite what the statistics say. | ||

And Move managed to make a fight out of it. Movie was screwed the moment he let Up macro off an even amount of bases for a loong time. FYI P needs to be 1 expo ahead of the T. | ||

Lucky for Upmagic, he's experienced enough to stop the damage done and use the advantage he initially had to push himself back into the game. I'm pretty sure that Movie would've won the game if he wasn't put so far behind w/ all that early game harass | ||

Man, you alternate so hard between posting legit, well-thought out analysis and rabid fanboyism that im getting whiplash. that lost kitten line made me laugh and remember how hard Bisu raped him in proleague with a simple 2-gate. | ||

But all that can change right? Remember when JD couldn't ZvP to save his life, but he somehow found the magic in his first OSL against Stork? | ||

I think this is generally what Protosses need to do against Zerg to overcome this so called "ZvP imba", be aggressive, dont sit in your base all day long. Movie shows how it's done | ||

Bisu, then no-name MBC toss vs Savior in stunning 3-0 fashion or Movie, the up and comer vs Flash, who looks just as invincible as savior did during his pre-Bisu Bonjwa time | ||

(PL finals) He already showed some signs of brilliance back then. This is the OSL finals, he's gonna prepare like a madman for this. Dont expect him to play vs flash like he did vs upmagic. Sure, Flash is the big favourite, but bigger upsets have happened. | ||
