hmmmmmmmmmm
This is gonna happen since Khan will send Jangbi over to Stars because as a team they decide Stars are gonna need all the help they can get to avoid being ass raped and humiliated by the glory of FBH and Stork.

I'd like to know as well It's hard to blame this on maps or Flash's Terran revolution when Jangbi starts using just... bad 1-dimensional builds.

Does anyone notice anything particularly new about FBH's hair? Considering how much he hyped it on his twitter page I was expecting it to be at least blue... or afro...

Yeah against the earlier 3rd hatch and with Zero not droning up his nonexistant 3rd, the hydra push was much stronger than expected. Goliaths aren't terrible against muta after all, he probably thought he was reasonably safe.
I think fbh didn't adapt to the game. He sniped a bunch of drones, delaying the third, so Zero just built up his hydra army and moved out, while he still had only one fac+shop and had been producing only goliaths.

I suppose that build of his was supposed to be a mass goliath timing push... but I thought those only worked against 2 hatch mutas. I know that it CERTAINLY doesn't work against 3 hatch before pool though :/

My feelings exactly.... FPL? More like FML.
Also lets hope this Reality guy is a prototype cyborg developed in a secret Samsung moon base; the result of mixing Turn's and Miracle's DNA with some stolen Flash hardware.

MvP looks good at sniping P so if Stars can use him well, ye might come true.
Stupid in general to leave your best player for 4th place (like yesterday with Oz) because it makes it obvious to the other team who's coming up and allows you to snipe him (like sending out modesty).

Yea definitely, coaches need to figure that out. I like what KT's coach did, send Flash out first.

Rosters are predetermined before matches aren't they? just not revealed until match day, but still chosen beforehand

No you pick the players right before the games. Similar to WL.

Not like Flash is snipable I think the idea was that his win will give the team momentum to at least get 1 more win (for him to take the ace), but alas

I don't think so. It was speculated to be the case (where players are chosen beforehand but won't know who they will play until the match begins), but Bogus said in his interview that he didn't expect to be sent out (which would indicate a spur-of-the-moment decision), its not like the coach would put him on a list to submit to kespa and wouldn't tell him he was playing).

No, that's why sets 4 and 5 have spoiler on them, so you don't KNOW if they players for those were revealed thus you don't KNOW if those games were played, thus you don't KNOW if was 3-0. Hence, the spoilers on set 4 and 5, because everyone know that the first 3 sets will be played thus the first 3 don't need spoilers and the last 2 do? Thank you?

It's not my fault there's no player entries in those spoilers because KHAN couldn't even force a 4th game. I see nothing wrong with displaying the matchups for the first 3 garaunteed sets, this isnt' Winner's League, where displaying a set spoils the results of the adjacent sets.
Part of the new Format is not knowing matchups, so when watching i want to watch starting from game1 to game5 whatever happens. spoiling matchups is like spoiling results. PUT MATCHUPS IN THE SPOILER TAG!

THANK GOD FOR FPL AND SOULKEY BEING 1 PT!!! (and jangbi on anti team, lolslump). I also chose woongjin because I find that in this new format of bo5, woongjin is the most stacked team of BO1'ers, I just feel bad for flash because they will probably win less than 50% of this season's matches (recall how many times flash reverse all killed and those were in bo7s).

Dudes, players are predetermined, every news post before the round said so. Bogus saying he was surprised to be picked doesn't mean it was on the spot, it means we was surprised to be in the line-up. And when the players are predetermined, it's completely irrelevant if your best player is being sent 4th or earlier, it should be based on map.
EDIT: On second thought, I may be wrong. I could have sworn that was what I had read before the round started but now I can't find (retroactive) confirmation anywhere. Damn vagaries!

Do you even understand this round's set up at all? It's just a "surprise" version of Rounds 1 and 2. Thus, the first 3 games don't need to be spoiled because they are played by some different pair of players each game, thus you have no way of knowing who won any of the first 3 games. So don't make a shitty caps-lock super-bolded posts telling me what to do because just because you're so dense.
