Predictions:+ Show Spoiler +I like to look at the team as a whole before giving my specific prediction. eSTRO is one of these wild-card teams. You never know what is going to happen when they play. Sometimes they suck, sometimes they are amazing. But that is the nature of Starcraft these days. Even the people not considered strong players can just trash on S-Class opponents. That is why it is fun watching eSTRO, I love when they do well, especially against teams they are never expected to beat. It leaves some sort of mystery in the air. However, they have some tough opponents to tackle tonight. Expect Really to do well, and someone else to hopefully win a game so they can send in Really for the ace match. eSTRO really needs some reliable players besides Really. Classic seems like he may be the man to fill that spot. Expect him to do some work tonight as well. ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/images/teams/10.jpg) Ahh Samsung KHAN, home of everyone's favorite DinoGooBirdToss like I said last time KHAN played, they are in a state of mediocrity. Now mediocre doesn't mean bad. It means average, ordinary. And that is all KHAN is at the moment. While they still have the potential of a very strong team in the likes of Stork and JangBi, they just aren't putting out the results they used to, and the team is suffering for it. The potential is there, they just need to reach it. Expect Stork to still do work, JangBi to disappoint ( poor ChubbyToss : [ ).
Classic < Grand Line > greatI don't expect KHAN to send out one of their Protoss, and they don't have a terran (besides FBH), so I believe they will send out a Zerg in the form of great. eSTRO has 4 responses, in my opinion: Really, Classic, Action, and hyvaa. I doubt they'll send their main man Really on the 1st game. So he's out. hyvaa ZvZ? LoL. He's out. So the last remaining choices in my eyes are Classic and Action. Either one could be chosen, my money is on Classic. Standard game, great wins with more experience. hyvaa < Judgment Day > JangBiI know, I know, I said expect JangBi to disappoint. While I expecting him to disappoint isn't out of the question, I don't think a win out of him is either. What I'm saying is if this game happens, don't be surprised if he falls short. Samsung KHAN takes the advantage of the Game 1 win, and tries to go 3-0 by sending JangBi then The Bird next. Really < Match Point > StorkGame of the night. Both teams send out their last defenses. Stork comes out on top. eSTRO 0 < 3 Samsung KHAN

action < firebathero really > jangbi hyvaa > stork flying < great anyone < FIREBATHEROO
hoping for a nailbiter :D
|
Hopefully we see firebathero win a game... been forever since he's done anything useful for his team.. wonder if they'll even let him play, dont think he played last time around.
Should be eSTRO 3-2 in a close one, Really > Stork in the ace match.

I wanna see Action vs Stork and Really vs great

classic should repair that burning CC, it would be a very sloppy play to let it burn down
|

thank god, classic sees the burning cc and starts repairing it

it seems that this game will drag forever

Massive push at classic's main. Reality is besieging his factories! Classic has more bases though and just build factories on the other side of the map Protoss-style. Classic drops and takes out Reality's last mining base (island at 9) Reality tries a counterdrop, fails, and ggs.
|
|
That was an exciting TvT, don't know what you are all complaining about.
|
ZzzzZZZzzz
oh, just woke up to see that the game finally ended
those kinda games that gives TvT a bad rep
|
They both played bad but WTF did Reality take before this match. That was like he wanted to loose. No defense at any of his bases he lost 4 bases and never even tried to defend them
|
Did anyone else read Reality as Really and actually get excited for the match?

Classic is now 4-1 in televised matches, with wins against BeSt (out of form, deep six'd), Modesty (a ZvZ sniper, can't play anything else), RuBy (inconsistent), and Reality (B-teamer). His one loss was against Flash.
Does anyone know this kid's actual skill level?

Action wins.
Great is fail and a noob for letting those lings in his base....
GG.
|
this is it for great
action showed who's really great
|
|
|
I'm no ZvZ expert but I'm pretty sure great did that wrong.
|
|
Action played great imo. Solid micro.
|
Wow, that was a pretty one-sided game...
|
I think great built a few too many lings -> down in muta count.
|
Time for Really to clean it up!
|
will birdtoss be able to save khan?

hyvaa vs Juni? I'm very disappoint.
|
What's going on with Khan's lineup? Are they even trying to win matches anymore? D:
|
Not impressed by any of the matches tonight...
|
And I once thought January had great management sense.
|
They can't put Stork out for both of the remaining matches, after all. Putting him out 4th and 5th is probably best.
That said, Juni? Wouldn't Jangbi be better?

I've lost faith in Khan
|

eSTRO 3-0
YAY!
Too bad this thread is like empty haha ):
|
I just don't get why you wouldn't play Jangbi there. Oh, and is FBH on self-imposed exile or something or is there a reason he's not being put back out after ~week off. D:

Congratulations Khan, on the successful troll line-up.
|
eStro wins 3-0 hahaha. Sad really didn't play though.
|
|
Jeez Khan, are you going to throw away series for the rest of the season too?
|
Hyvaa finally earned me some points.
|
Not Khan's finest hour.
Maybe they could merge with Hite.

So, uh, Stork takes revenge on KT by not playing against eSTRO?
|
khan got estrolled?
lol
and FML for trading estro for oz...
|
2 zvz and a worst ever tvt. Thank you khan, you just made my day. Who the hell plays juni when he is behind 0:2?
|
Lineup fail... so Khan's decided to tank this season to "develop" "promising" "talents"? Stork maybe it's time to join ACE lol... at least you'll be in the lineup before the team loses (most of the time)
|
|
|
Hahaha this rules, thanks for the freewim khan
|
I guess this is Khan's real worth after all.

|
lol this is a short LR thread.
Where are the Khan tosses??? =(
|
By the first look this seemed like a b-team tourny or something But it's good to try some new players once in a while, however that logic isn't aplied when you use Juni in the third set...
I mean, classic vs reality who?
|
gg to my fantasy team. Action and effort both on my anti ==
|
khan with its sick lineup, they really got the least talent out of every teams in the league with 1 senior play qualify for individual leagues consistently.

Wish I could know the reasoning behind this lineup. Good thing I missed the matches, afterall.
|
Wow. Another suprising 3-0.
Ouch at the OPs predictions.
|
Hi my name is KHAN and I suck atm.

Action needs to transfer to STX so that we can have the ultimate 3-0 lineup. + Show Spoiler +
|
|
|
Wow. Just looking at the matchups, the results, and the number of posts in the LR thread, I'm forced to conclude that this must have been the lamest proleague match of all time.
|
I guess Stork was too busy with all his individual leagues to play? lol
