Did he even practice any of these builds before he came today? The point of unexpected builds is to surprise your opponent... not yourself in the middle of the game.

But that was pretty fun to watch.

LOL, that made me laugh in real life. :D

I'm pretty sure he practiced the build he used against miso. He used the exact same strategy against soulkey recently and it worked.

Hiya was probably expecting the zerg to expand at the back expansion and he was too stubborn to change his gameplan. Maybe...

AH, you are right; he did in fact have something planned. However, I do think that the foundations of his build were just lackluster. He may have relied on that drop a bit too much, even when he did scout an absent expansion behind the eggs with his SCV. Hiya just did not have a contingency plan up his sleeve. It pretty much was an all-in. Granted, if things would have gone Hiya's way, it would have been quite a spectacular win. I also think he overcommitted with the wraiths after he spent time and resources on the drop. He did very little damage with them. I would actually have preferred for Hiya to build a few wraiths, and assume Miso would overhaul his scourge production. A few to fly around harassing overlords, keeping future mutas off his base would probably work in Hiya's favour, in conjunction with the delayed MnM force. His marine production didn't even begin until way, way late. By the final battle it looked like the muta numbers equaled to that of the marines.

Also, I did not actually see the recent Soulkey-Hiya games, so I do not know what worked for Hiya that time. I'll definitely check them out.

VODs are already up on moktira.

Stats vs hyvaa was pretty one sided and typical of pvzs. Watch if you have time.

Omg... a KT player not Flash has made it through a round in the individuals! Is Stats the first KT to actually advance so far?

Action qualified 2-1, beating Tyson and BByong.

Still going to be a long season ahead for us KT fans
