Other than the stasis, best's micro wasn't that special. (well the probe defense was pretty good too, but it wouldn't have happened if hiya was microing his vulture) - his big gains in the game were mostly due to catching hiya off guard (both with his zealot-heavy unit mix, and catching hiya out of position)

his micro vs vulture/mine surround was HORRIBLE this game, for example
bisu especially is a contrast to this, his mine defusing is amazing.

hrm, I guess I should call him baxter since he's been using this handle forever. well it's a good switch, since he wasn't turning out to be a killer.

Best bottom left, killer, er, baxter bottom right.

If they sent out JD and he won, Hyuk would come out next game and embarrass him.

Killer has gotten significantly better ever since the Oz ace fiascos.

baxter taking 2 instead - first 6 lings pop - and focus on the scouting probe - giving time for best's cannons to get up safely

baxter has gotten better, but I still think he's pretty lacking

anyways, baxter takes his nat as well, morphing a lot of drones - lair in progress

best adding cybercore

I don't get why everyone is just complimenting Best's macro this game. Sure he, steadily reinforced units, but he engaged in very clever spots and he microed decently to back it up.

stargate being added
best taking his nat gas

random thought: toss could really use scans vs zerg - tech switches are so nasty

yay, another stream is back

Wow, zealots take down the morphing hatch just before reinforcements arrive
decent storm drop kills a number of probes

hah, using storm to defend the shuttle from scourge
