Those are the safe bets, and I agree, but because it's SC it's unlikely everything is going to go as planned =)

If you believe the rumours, quite a few are, providing you're the one paying off the right people.

Unless you're betting against Midas, of course, where that doesn't seem to work...

I wouldn't be shocked if Kal beat Flash, they just played and I'm sure Kal practiced like crazy already. In their last game Kal made some really stupid mistakes but the game was still close.

Flash is going to rage rape Kal for his lost in the previous OSL game.

Stork will lose yet again and be out of OSL. probably for the best, will be really frustraiting if he wins and then fail just when you think he might make it.

I just noticed that the OSL intro features ForGG checking his watch... coincidental or not, that's pretty cool.

Now if only they included a bit about Fantasy and airport security...

I dont understand why everyone is thinking effort winning is somehow assured. Gogo is the roflcopter afterall and effort is just playing bad at the moment :O

Kal's Stargate + Archives done, moving troops to 6 where Flash plans to plant the CC....

OMG Kal going to move in and snipe two tanks, but he's lost quite a few goons... OMG BUT A LOT MORE GOONS INCOMING!

Kal meanwhile taking 9...

KAL CHARGING IN AGAIN!

FOCUS FIRE THE TANKS KAL!!!

Gah no focus fire!

Losing a lot of goons since they're firing on SCVs. Kal down to 3 goons, and is finally completely driven back.

Flash lost a decent number of tanks there, but Kal also lost a ton of goons. Not sure how many SCVs went down for Flash. Overall I'd say Flash came out a little ahead on that exchange.

Kal looks like he's getting ready to start his 4th.

Flash adding on a starport and getting up to 5 (6?) fact.

Flash now up to 5 factories vs 4 gates for Kal, though Kal is probably going to start adding Gates like mad soon...

Kal grabbing his fourth, Flash with dual armories.

Kal adding 4 gates for a grand total of 8. Arbiter out for Kal.

Flash being turtle Terran. Kal playing it safe and not overextending....

No carrier transition it seems from Kal. Cybernetics Core not spinning. No Zealots for Kal yet either. Kal taking top right.

First arbiter out now for Kal. Flash has his tanks/mines/turrets/depots out in a pretty forward position on the map, but the positioning is solid and Kal can't really pressure it.

Little bit of a blunder, Flash not starting his 2/1 on time?

Kal looks like he's going to expand to top right (already in progress) and bottom left, realizing that Flash can only push towards one of them at a time.

CORE SPINNING!!! Carrier transition incoming?

BUT HE'S RECALLING INTO MINES!

HOLY SHIT SO MANY OF KAL'S FORCES EXPLODED TO MINES!

Flash loses his Vessel, but the CC will live. Very minimal damage. Not what Kal needed.

Are those arbs hallucinations? Yeah, Kal going in for a Hallucinate arbiter recall at 6:00.

BUT HE RECALLS ON MINES!! Flash lifts the CC, but half the P forces melted immediately.

Flash cleans it up with ease, losing only 1 vessel, some mining time, and a few vults for a large protoss force and an arbiter.

Core's been spinning for a few minutes now, carriers just being added on now though.

Another recall at 6:00, this one's going to be a lot more effective (probably).

Oh nevermind, Flash has absolutely amazing tank positioning and the goons disappear almost immediately. Flash lost the CC, though.

kal has too many bases, all he needs to do is buy time for them to kick in.

his recent cc snipe only solidified his economic advantage. being too passive like this will cost flash the late-game.

Kal unable to hold the gateway above the cliff at bottom left.

Another arb for Kal.. Still no Carriers.

OMG KAL WITH DUAL CORES!! This is pretty big...

NO GOLS yet for Flash!

Kal valiantly defending 9... He needs to hold it until he gets enough interceptors.

No dice. Kal took 3, Flash ignoring that and taking down Kal's top right...

But Kal ignoring all that... reveal with 6 or so Carriers!!!

He's distance mining 12, but the crappy probe AI is taking the minerals to his main nexus instead of his natural lol.

But yeah, Kal only has ~300 minerals right now to rebuild interceptors, while Flash is maxed with 3/2 upgrades. Not looking good at all for Kal

Kal being annoying and flying into the main right as Flash is pushing out across the map toward Kal's main. Flash has to pull everything back to fight off teh carriers.

Kal recalls the carriers to get them to harass bottom left expansion!! Interceptors fly all the way across the map and reveal carrier position though, and Flash has way too many goliaths.

Counters instead of defending (which is ok), but then does no damage with the counter while losing all his bases??

Kal = crap

I feel as if he stayed with gateways and maybe 1-2 stargates for arbs, adding more gateways at 1'oclock, he could ahev controlled the whole map on flash and beast ahead like 6 bases to 3-4.

At the time when he made those Stargates he had 7 bases, though. I don't think he was expecting Flash to be able to kill all those expansions so quickly.

he hardly lost 7o'clock, and thats when he was going into the carrier transition, if he could of held that bottom of the map any longer, flash would have been starved out.

This is deja vu. Kal misses the timing with the carriers, waits too long to make too many and gives Flash amply time to mass on gols.

Yeah pretty much. Are Carriers even that good on Fighting Spirit? There doesn't seem to be enough cover for the Carriers. Seems like having millions of Gates in every expo would be a better strategy on FS.

Flash made it look so easy when he took out 4 of Kal's expansions, leaving him with his first 3 bases.

It happened so fast, wow. GJ Flash.

Kal's play was all over the place. He had expansions everywhere, upgraders, the whole tech tree researched. . . and Flash shut it all down ezpz. Flash is insane.

Yeah I was wondering that myself. Though I have a feeling that Kal might have been afraid of trying to go ground late game vs. Flash's 3/2 mech army, since Flash made Kal's ground forces look so completely helpless in proleague recently. Though of course that was a 2 player map so there weren't as many bases for Kal.

kal got overconfident and had his own strat in mind, i think mystlord is right and im sure if he would of kept on with the ground forces, it would of been a way better game.

ps. he did lose alot of units though, right before the transition.

When flash decided to make a move it went crazy fast omg.
All expos at the same time, you're too gosu
He knew exactly what he could do and did it.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

That was funny; my computer was retarded and made Firefox crash during the game, and when I came back to the stream like 2 minutes later Kal had gone from having a billion bases with minerals to having no bases at all. O_o Gotta rewatch that game later.

Flash imba!

I'm sure Kal intended to take out 7 o clock with the first carrier attack and keep at least one of his top four bases. None of that happened.

A lot of tosses have been trying this lategame switch to carriers lately, and it almost never seems to work. It just seems to give too much of a window for the Terran to rape ur expos before the carriers come out. The one time I remember it working, Violet vs Light, Violet was in a commanding lead before the switch and only barely managed to hold on for the win after the switch.

Polaris Rhapsody is a radically different map than Fighting Spirit. PR is so freaking narrow and funnels the Protoss ground army so badly that Carriers should end up working well since Goliaths can't hit Carriers easily and Carriers can abuse the terrain to make the Terran army run around. Not the case on Fighting Spirit, where you can easily flank a Terran army and there's a pretty direct path between bases and where Goliaths can basically sit in a giant ball to engage Carriers.

Though it was certainly a nice game, i didn't see this back and forth the entire game (see results comments in the OP), when T double expo like that and the T name is Flash, game is decided already ... sad sad sad ... luckily not every T name's is Flash ... !

Let's see how Stork manage the mu mow!

So group A is now...

Flash 2-1
Kal 2-1
Hyvaa 1-1
Kwanro 0-2

????

Basically Kwanro is out no matter what, but if he wins then there is a tiebreaker between Flash Kal and Hyvaa?

He had somuch money that he would've easily been able to hold flash away from the bottom left expos. Just recall and stasis everything and run youre army into the terran again and again. That way he wouldn't be able to move anywhere and starve out

he tried that several times already and it always fails. flash just wont push, he defends and slowly splits the map until he cant lose

Kwanro win -> Flash advances as A1 Kal as A2
Kwanro lose -> Playoff between Flash, Kal, and Hyvaa with 2 of them advancing. I don't remember ever seeing a 3 at 2-1 playoff before, does it have the same format as the other playoff? If so I guess A1 would go to the person who won 2 games first, then it essentially turns into a BO3 between the last 2?

Unfortunately for Hwasin, he doesn't have Flash's late game ability. I doubt Hwasin will actually be able to deal with carriers cleanly.

I am kind of expecting surprise carriers to be honest, assuming Hwasin doesn't die before they arrive.

If someone's gone 2-0 in the tiebreak round, then someone else has gone 0-2, so the 1-1 guy also advances. I think they replay if everyone goes 1-1.

The three people with 2-1 play round robin. If the scores are 2-0, 1-1, 0-2, the 2-0 play advances A1 and 1-1 advances as A2. If the scores are all 1-1, they just round robin again.

Nice, Stork blocks the SCV scout with a pylon in his choke plus a hold position zealot.

But he's just going standard 1gate range, so maybe he'll get Hwasin to over-react.

Stork going 1gate range with FE.

Hwasin snuck an SCV into Stork's base and sees the standard play!

Range finished now for Stork, he's shelling the bunker and making Hwasin repair. He also snuck a zealot into the base and is doing some damage!

Goons move in and almost break the bunker, kill a few SCVs, but the tank comes out and forces them back.

Hwasin went Rax CC, Stork opting to 1 Gate Range Expo to try to apply some pressure and draw some SCVs off of the mineral line....

STORK SNEAKS A ZEALOT IN!

Repair keeping Stork's goons at bay. Zealot inside Hwasin's main sees everything...

Getting quite a few kills..

WTF Stork getting up close to the Bunker to get some SCVs!

A CITADEL SO FAST?

Dark templar? Dubious about this move...

Siege mode done for Hwasin. Further aggression is nullified.. Hwasin do you have turretssss?

What? Idra's build was Rax CC into cancel CC and ragequit. Hwasin's doing something completely different...

LOL HWASIN W/O TURRETS!

STORK PUSHING IN!

Oh wow Hwasin using the terrain to siege up his Tanks within turret range while protecting his choke!

GJ by Hwasin. Thought he was screwed.

Comsat going up, DTs won't do anything. CC lifting to 3.

Stork with some pretty nice goon micro keeping that tank count low, which will make securing that 3rd base very hard for Hwasin. But Stork does it at the cost of a lot of goons.

Vultures sneaking into Stork's mineral lines now! Taking out a ton of probes!

Hwasin sieging up to defend 3. Looks like he's going to have a solid defense unless something drastic happens...

Hwasin getting ready for recalls. Mines in his main and stuffs.

Hwasin's SCV sees one of Stork's arbs...

But it backs off. Mines covering everywhere pretty much... Except maybe Hwasin's third is a bit vulnerable...

Stork moving all of his forces north and preparing a large concave, looking like he might want to try to break 3. Oh no, he's just going to recall it.

Ah, he suicides an observer in there to see that it's HEAVILY covered in mines before he recalls! Very smart. Recalling there could have been a disaster.

Vultures catch transferring probes in the center of the map and take out a ton of them!

His recalls having failed to get off or see vulnerability, Stork decides to use the energy for lots of stasis and go for a break.

Gets a TON of tanks with some stasis, freezes everything!!!

Hwasin only has 1/0 upgrades, too, so the remaining forces aren't that great

Hwasin with a very scary ball...

OMG HUGE STASIS ALL OVER HWASIN'S ARMY!

Not looking good for Hwasin now!

More troops rallying in for Stork!

Hwasin with NO DEFENSE anywhere now!

No units left for Hwasin, just his satsised units!

Ahhh they unfreeze, but Stork's in position to clean all of Hwasin's units up!

Zealots at Hwasin's third raping SCVs.. Ahhh Hwasin is only 2/1 vs Stork's 2/0/0. But it's too late now. It's impossible for Hwasin to come back from that...

Hwasin down to 2 base, Stork on 4...

More stasis on Hwasin's tanks in his nat...

GG from Hwasin.

What happened there was Hwasin didn't have all of his tanks pre-sieged and setup with turrets/depots like Flash, so when he saw Stork coming in he moved his tanks back and sieged, but they weren't pre-spread so a stasis got like 6 tanks.

Spent too much APM defending against recalls and not enough setting up his army in the map.

I thought Kal played really well, while Stork played pretty terribly (those mines!), so I'd say the difference is all in Flash.

Flash would have had all of his center tanks pre-sieged and better positioned, and would have had more mines / turrets / depots ready to stop a break (as we saw him do in the previous game on FS).


Though Hwasin still played well except for that one slipup in the final battle. He completely blocked Stork's recall attempts and did some amazing vulture harassment, while expanding at a roughly equal pace, and killing a ton of transferred probes.

The difference between Flash and Hwasin obviously. Hwasin was actually doing alright but was caught out of position, had a significant number of tanks unsieged and had some pretty bad troop spread.

Stork still did not impress that much tbh. I dont see him getting any further in the OSL witht his play.

first he let so many voults into his nat and main, then he walks like a million dragoons into mines, then he lose alot of probes to vults again.

Though really nice move to scoute adn pull back those two recalls. that saved him big time, and the stasis.

Vs better players though this wont do.

This game can either be seriously awful or extremely good. Both players seem to fluctuate between the two extremes.

Spire already starting for Calm. Factory not even done yet for Fantasy. That pesky marine is preventing Calm from mining at his expansion, though, which has got to be screwing with his game plan.

Calm trying to jump a zergling back there now, but the marine fights it back.

Turrets up in time, Marine bought a few seconds since mutalisks stopped to kill it before heading to the base.

Valk out as well and gets off a full volley unharmed on the mutalisk stack. And then a second volley!

Another valk gets taken out by scourge, but the mutas take a decent amount of turret fire to cover for the scourge.

Lurkers moving in now, Fantasy stims and snipes one.

Valk down, bunker finished but not enough SCVs to repair it! Fantasy loses his expo and now lurkers are burrowing up the ramp!

Wow valks come and take out ALL the mutalisks, but there are still 5 lurkers in fantasy's base.

This was even more disappointing than fantasy vs Calm, lol.

Nice to see some zergs winning against terrans for a change, though.

go.go really had no follow-up to his cheese -- after the failed bunker rush he just sent the rest of his rines to die later on.

Didn't really see the start there, but if that was a 7rax that rush was incredibly poor executed by Go.Go
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

I updated the results on the (Wiki)wiki. As you can see only Kwanro is out yet. Group A could have a 2/3 tiebreaker, all the others could have a 1/3.

ForGG, Zero, Baby all already in Ro8.

Well it hurts but I really really hope that baby beats Movie. I want that tiebrake between Movie, Stork, and Hawasin. Not that STork will do any better there, but at least he will have a chance.

Though perhaps better that movie wins so at least a protoss moves on. would suck if he lose and then hawasin moves on and movie and stork is out.

No korean pro gamer gave a fuck about IEF. Bisu didn't even bother shaving and everyone except Stork got knocked out by a non-progamer.

But anyways, I am just in a bad mood Bisu will not win. But glad go.go is finally sucking balls like he should.

Damn fantasy is an idiot. Why did he declare he would try his denvalk-whatever-onic build before the game and actually go forward with it. Even if he executed it perfectly (lol right) his opponent has had ample time to prepare a counter.

He's sure making it hard for me to be his fan.

I don't think it'll be worth it either, because if he loses Shine will get 1st place in the group and not him.

Fantasy 8 barraxed vs 12 pool muta, of course he's going to be in a tight spot no matter what he does. It woulda been a lot more embarassing if he played normal bionic and died to mutas before his turrets were out.

Sad to see Kal lose though, so close yet again

guys
there is a chinese website that already has uploads of all the latest SPL and OSL day 5 games

this is the Flash vs Kal one
http://www.wfbrood.com/movie/OSL2010/movie_47337.html

i have to say the chinese uploaders are way too diligent
then again
they have 1.3 billion ppl..

Hwasin vs Stork
http://www.wfbrood.com/movie/OSL2010/movie_47338.html

fantasy vs calm
http://www.wfbrood.com/movie/OSL2010/movie_47339.html

go.go vs effort
http://www.wfbrood.com/movie/OSL2010/movie_47340.html

have fun =)

PS most games start at around 12 mins
PS(again): this is the list of games there are and they are updated every time there is new games and they are faster than youtube most of the times

Poor Kal...

Just as Hoejja said in Nal_rA's OldBoy Series... I think Kal pretty much "Forgot how to win" after playing Flash a few times, "He doesn't know how to win anymore." Violet-ish slump incoming as well?

In other news, FLASH IS GOD. Kal's build would have raped most other terrans because they would have probably pulled BACK to save their tanks, and thus Kal would have had a mineral bank to supply his interceptors for the rest of the game. Yet, instead, Flash did a GENIUS move and spread out his tanks to attack all the bases SIMULTANEOUSLY, taking advantage of the one true weakness carriers have: their inability to be in several places at once. Great plays from Kal, genius plays from Flash. I think it's safe to say that had Flash pulled back when the carriers popped, he would have lost.... but he's Flash. ridiculous.
The probability of Kim Carrier getting all those predictions wrong is similar to the probability Flash loses a TvT. Kim Carrier MUST BE a genius. His only big mistake... STORK.

You can also watch it on the Ongamenet website, which is much higher quality and streams much better. I thought you had to be logged in to do it, but I just tested it, and apparently you don't have to, which means it's available to everyone, which is totally awesome.

Go to this link, and it's the 4 latest VODs, in reverse order (i.e. the latest VOD is go.go vs Effort, and the fourth one is Kal vs Flash).

Commentators said late-game Carrier transition was the only way to beat Flash. Flash hardly loses half vs half map battles vs Arbiter Protoss ground army. Kal's HUGE and obvious mistake was letting every expo die as he was pumping Carriers. But the credit goes to Flash...his ability to sense Carriers and destroy every expo right before they start moving around the map. I mean, it's just incredible what he's doing..seeing his gameplay makes me speechless

QFT. If Kal decides to be stubborn and carry on using the ground army, flash will just slow push him to death. If you watch mid game, flash was pushing to 7 to set up 2 bases there. 5 base Flash is pretty much unstoppable

Any1 else think Flash would have been screwd if Kal didn't transition to carriers?

Commentators said late-game Carrier transition was the only way to beat Flash. Flash hardly loses half vs half map battles vs Arbiter Protoss ground army. Kal's HUGE and obvious mistake was letting every expo die as he was pumping Carriers. But the credit goes to Flash...his ability to sense Carriers and destroy every expo right before they start moving around the map. I mean, it's just incredible what he's doing..seeing his gameplay makes me speechless


QFT. If Kal decides to be stubborn and carry on using the ground army, flash will just slow push him to death. If you watch mid game, flash was pushing to 7 to set up 2 bases there. 5 base Flash is pretty much unstoppable


Once Flash gets his 4th gas and successfully splits the map, there is almost no way for a Protoss to overcome his perfect turtling. Kal's decision to switch to Carrier was correct. The problem is that he missed his timing. That early +2 attack upgrade on the arbiter was pretty damn obvious. Flash had ample amount of time to make preparation. He should have built less stargates, and attacked with 4 carriers as soon as +1 air attack finishes.

Just watched the few minutes I missed of the game due to my retarded computer, and hfiwaohFI AWJfioawjio Flash is good. Takes out 5 bases just like that. Kal didn't play perfectly of course, but that was still one of the most impressive TvP performances I've ever seem.
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

Makes sense. I guess the situation's deceptive cause Kal massed expansions with few gates so his macro would have taken a while to kick in anyway
Morrow on ZvP: "I'm not very confident in general vs Protoss because of the imbalance (Yes its imbalanced, get over it)."
