Predictions: + Show Spoiler + I like to start my predictions by examining each teams strength overall, then go into specific predictions. First we will look at
eSTRO .
eSTRO has a couple of strengths, and a lot of weaknesses.
eSTRO 's strength?
Really and
the unknown . That is the strength of
eSTRO .
Really is a good player, but the rest of their team is kind of a tossup, so you never know who to expect and what to expect out of them. Although it is hard to predict with a team like
eSTRO , the players I expect them to use this game:
Really ,
hyvaa ,
Flying , and
Classic . Now it is just mix and matching the players based on the map and the other team's players.
CJ Entus , in my opinion, is not so hot right now. Their starter players include
Movie , who is just... I don't even know what to say about him. He is just "meh" right now. He is on a pretty bad streak right now and just got knocked out of the OSL by
great . Their next big player is
EffOrt , who I hope gets back on his feet again. Many people believe that his revival is starting after some impressive muta micro versus
ZerO in the OSL which led him to a victory. But I am not so convinced, yet. Maybe tonight will be the night he changes my mind? The rest of
CJ Entus ...
Iris ,
sKyHigh ,
Hydra , and
others are all tossups as well.
The only person playing tonight who I think has a definite advantage over anyone is
Really , which at first doesn't look like good news for
CJ Entus . But there is one player who can beat
Really and this first map is the map to do it on.
eSTRO 3 > 2
CJ Entus
Well here is to see Flying vs Effort with some Arbiter usage again!
Edit: =P he changed it

Wait, what about Snow ? Up and coming, yo.
I disagree with Really being sent out on Roadrunner in your prediction. His only game on that map was an ace match he lost in so it's probably the map Really isn't really practicing on.Action will most likely be sent out on Roadrunner . Maybe...

Action will most likely be sent out on

Roadrunner a lot because he lost that game?Roadrunner just because the statistics say that they are the strongest race on Roadrunner . I try and make my predictions as logical as possible, but hey, you never know what those crazy koreans are going to do! ;]Action will be sent out? His stats on Roadrunner are.... not quite in favor of that opinion. Action Stats
I'm going to be commentating on the game in my stream. I sent in the application to be verified 2 days ago and they haven't verified it yet. So there are only 50 slots available.

Interesting though... what makes you say Action will be sent out? His stats on Roadrunner are.... not quite in favor of that opinion.

no hive tech.. I am sad
I think Action went allin during the lagspike, running zerglings into the nat while trying to break spores with mutas in the main.
I guess action felt like if he waited longer he'd be too behind since he lost his third and effort was mining off 3 gas.
Action...engaged against Effort's muta...over Effort's spore colony field and ate all the scourges without bothering to dodge.
pretty good zvz
So I am sure everyone who voted Zero on Zero vs Effort is starting to regret it lol.

Iris is now running on 3 bases, but it's much slower than Fancy's 3bas. Iris moving toward Fancy's 3rd with 2 dropships, forces a liftoff and SCVs to run. This is exactly what Iris needed to even up the econ score!
Nice drop from Iris to delay Fancy's 3rd. But what matters more is how much damage the wraiths will do when they appear.

Those Wraiths did there job of taking out 2 dropships a few tanks and a Gol. Now that is about 1k in and gas down the drain as tank gol formation goes up to fancy's 2nd and 3rd.
Iris pushing into Fancy's 3rd--fancy doesn't have many tanks and Iris has a ton of goliaths. Uh oh, Fancy down to just a single wraith now. Some sloppy play lost him a ton of wraiths.
way to waste your wraiths...

Fancy's tanks were out of position there and Iris steamrolled Fancy's 3rd.
Fancy loses his CC at his 3rd, but responds by taking ANOTHER ninja expo, this time at the 8:00 main's natural.
So many hidden expos from fancy
I think Fancy might be expanding a little too much here.

Fancy has like no units and just a ton of SCVs / CCs. Iris knows something's up, and has now spotted the 8:00 ninja. But he doesn't see 7!
Iris scouts 2 of the ninja expos. Still doesn't know about the other one. Probably doesn't expect it seeing as how he already found some.

Well snows best matchup is TvP.
FD opening for Really. Snow scouts after gateway.
Amusingly, I'm not sure who's the snipe for who. Polaris is a good PvT map and Snow's best MU is PvT, so maybe Really was sent to snipe a protoss in surprise. Or maybe CJ knew that Really would play on the map where protoss was most likely to play, so they sent their best vTer on a protoss favored map and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah meta.
i have really and effort on my anti. ROFLROFL REALLY GO LOSE

Really being very aggressive about scouting for proxies.
Really just moves out with the vults to plant some mines, and safely expands at his nat.
Nal_ra and the other commentators joking around alot lol

Hmm though yeah Snow is cute.
Gahh, my FPL trades this week = fail. Skyhigh on my main, traded Effort away, traded Flying for Snow, but I also have Really. Best case scenario for me, Snow loses, and Really and Skyhigh play in ace.

2 carriers attacking Really's 3rd, but he already has a ton of turrets to defend it.

Well, carriers take out the bay . . . so that's at least something going Snow's way. Still not looking so great for him, since Really now has his 4th base secured.
Really taking fifth, his min only gets hit when he moves out!
Goons break Really's 4th!

CC survives!
CC burns down as it flies out of goon range. Really pushing towards Snow's fourth.

Snow really trying to abuse the bridge area with carriers on one side.
Snow is now up a base! But Really is about to set it back to 3 vs. 3, and is sneaking another base.

but really has tanks sieging 7
This seems actually quite innovative by Snow. He uses carriers to abuse the cliffs and patrols the middle area. He then uses strike forces of goons to take out selected targets. Really can't move out because all his weak points get picked apart.

Snow will lose everything in the sandwich.

Goons + carriers > gols? lol.
Wow snow is cleaning shit up. Kills most of golis, so his carriers have free reign now. Loses a carrier but hes cleaned up Really's tanks, and cleaned up atttack on his fourth.

snow playing really amazingly
Uh oh, Really's forces breaking to carriers now . . .
I guess you don't go 11-0 in Dream League for free.
Finally Really is losing. It's about time my anti team needed a break.

Snow using his carriers amazingly well. This map is perfectly suited for them, it turns out.
Wow, Really is really bad against carriers wtf was that.

not sure why he expanded at 12 instead of 10 when he's going goliath/tank though
Really gets a little bit of vulture harass off in the bottom left, but not a huge amount.
Abuse that cliff

As Idra would say
Snow's strategy was pretty damn good.
Really definitely could not afford to move out with his entire army. He probably should've just held the four bases he had, and used small vulture groups for harassment.

Stork used Carriers vs Sea.
But Flying had crushed Koala with carriers before that game too.
snow beat Really?
Im just glad that from "Fuck ya Effort!!" it went to "Fuck yea Effort!!!"
I liked the last game, goliaths vs carriers is always epic to watch.
