BEST BMS FREE SOULKEY REVENGE BY BM'ING FANTASY BISU REVENGE BY BM'ING SOULKEY
GREAT NIGHT FOR STARCRAFT
Fuck yeah I just spent 3 incredible hours at office. Need to go back to work, but it made my day for sure ! I hope the mass BMing we saw today are going to attract more fans !
You guys are really easily entertained. All Bisu did was make a scout which is what Best just did two games before that. It's not that funny.

The difference between the game he won today and the game he lost today is that he played the first game and he didn't seem to play the second one. It feels awkward to blame it on nerves since he had so much pressure on him in his first game. Not sure what else to say about it though. I'd like to know what the discussion before the ace match was like.
There's a difference though. Fantasy is well known for his rather awful bio play(he lost to Hydra in a similar fashion), but Bisu is known for his multitask, which is what carried him to victory here. What could Soulkey have done other than turtle? If he didn't build sunkens then Bisu would have probably sacked his main pretty easily and then that would be gg anyway.

I wonder if this actually works in practice...?
I am going to call it the, Sunken-Ling-Scourge Defense into Ultralisks build.
it worked with Zero and Britney, )))
I thought it was an interesting build to watch, even if it usually involved the Zerg falling flat on their face if they do so much as miss scourging one shuttle.
sAviOr vs Kal on Fighting Spirit:
sAviOr vs Best on Fighting Spirit (last game I think):

I'm not going to speculate on what he should have done, but don't bother bringing up how anyone played against Hydra because lots of good players mysteriously play like shit against Hydra.

Touche. But regardless, Fantasy is pretty bad at vZ compared to Bisu.

What.
Of course it works and it's strong on maps like FS, EOTS, GL etc.
Saying otherwise shows ignorance about zvp.
JD, Zero, Effort etc have all used this build to great effect.
