Thanks for making the thread!
My hierarchy of fandom sez: MBCGame Hero fighting! My mind tells me it probably won't happen, though...
Light for all-kill
Zero > Hyun Zero > Sea Zero > Saint Zero > Light ezpz
I hope Stars have stopped being the Proleague punching bags like they were in R2...

Go Light, start off the season with an All-Kill!Though Zero is on my fantasy team too.
I want really to lose. he's on my Anti-team
Really with 4 dropships dancing around players seem even on bases? Light hasn't taken 2 but has 11, while Really has 4 but not 7
Umm....after SKT v.s. KT, I really don't feel like watching TvT
Really flies dropships over Light's mines vulture raid on light's 4th - light responds with 2 dropships but Really attacks with 4 dropships! scvs being pulled!
Light clears the attack but lost a SHITLOAD of scvs - only 3 left and there's still 2 vultures there netting kills! Light scans and clears the mines, the moves his tanks away when there's still one vulture hidden to the left! Really taking his 5th at 7

lol yesterday was like #1 vs #2 TvT today is like #4 vs #5 or something (idk, it seems like sea, light, really, leta are #3-6 in some order...? I might be forgetting someone :/)
Really heading out with his 5 dropships again Light's taking a lot of damage from drops, at least from the part of the game I watched... they head back Light's two lonely dropships moving around drop/ground attack on light's tanks at the S hexcorner! Really actually lost a lot in that attack but crushes light's sieged tanks there
United States 13143 Posts
Light doing a drop/ground attack at the one or two tanks and turrets at 3 he's moving in position to threaten 4! but all he attacks right now is the ebay there really loading up his dropships - will he counterdrop? 6 dropships now!
Really drops reinforcements at 4, and runs his scvs light backs off for now Light taking his 5th at 2 but is Really taking another base at the west?
wtf was that from really, only 2 tanks denying an expo and defending his own. Light's way ahead now

Flash v.s. Fantasy almost gave me a heart attack. Flash v.s. Ssak made me fall asleep. Guess which one I am blaming for my TvT saturation.
Really slowly solidifying his advantage more and more Light still trying to set up sieged tank lines across the middle of the map...for what good they do vs a dropship fleet
"You just activated my trap card" meme with the black dude on it shown on the PL ad lol
Really with ground/drop attack up the NE hex - gains some ground, some units traded getting closer to Light's main! Light has so much gas...2k! Craton's overlay covers the minerals Actually really has a lot of gas too, almost 3k
Really has taken both 7.5 and 8 which are now mining, he's 2 bases up Light adding a CC at 10 though Really moving drop/ground force towards 2, Light's scvs flee right away
awww yeah. Look at all that blue.
Light moving 6 dropships down to 9, drops to destroy turrets really responding with a lot more dropships - but they drop elsewhere really retreats scvs from 8
really destroys the scvs mining only gas at 2, shelling the cc - it doesn't get lifted! cc destroyed!
Man Light behind. You gotta win this Light so you can AK !
thats a lot of dropships...

If Lights attack fails here its gg.
Valks are Super Effective against Wraiths. Wraiths scared off.
valks suck vs mass wraith lol
splash damage on the valks are taking its toll on the wraiths
Donno, they're doing pretty well. Maybe cause of the BC's tanking wraith damage? All the wraiths die anyway and Light GG's.

Mass Cattlebruisers > Mass Wraiths. Add a touch of Valks to mass BCs, and mass wraith is countered. Too bad for Light. He provided a decent TvT.
Goddamnit, I have Light on Main and Really on Anti.
Really went 14cc and Light opened 1 rax cc so economic advantage from the start.
those are nice...uniforms on the girls
Wow, this game only ended just now? another full game completed in the other matchup in the same time period...

I'm afraid for your sanity 1 gate gas for Tyson rax near Really's ramp
havent seen Han/tyson play in a while
Core for Tyson I haven't seen much 12nex lately, even on 4-player maps Is it just the games I've been watching or have protosses been cured? Really takes his nat off just a rax, Tyson's probe arrives right then
Tyson's core is up and spinning 1 rine out for Really drives Tyson's scouting probe away Really takes his gas 2 rines out now, bunker starts at Really's nat
Finally really sends out a scouting scv as his nat comes online first factory starts
I've got to say I haven't seen a Protoss do anything threatening against 1 rax CC in a long time Tyson takes his nat
Goon trying to chase the scouting scv that's far ahead another goon heads down the ramp citadel for Tyson, it might just work Really getting an academy though
2nd gate for tyson Really's first machine shop done and researching 2 ranged goons potshotting at the bunker another scouting scv comes - can tyson deny it? tyson doesn't fail and denies the scouting scv! really with a tank out, unable to deal with the 3 goons hitting his bunker though really adding another 3 raxes, his academy starts to research...
uh oh this game is gonna be short!
ahshit bachanic could possibly do very well here
If I had a dollar for every time I saw goons shooting at a Bunker being repaired by SCVs...
siege done, tyson backs off tyson adds stargate AFTER archives (yuck...timing) goon outside really's bridges denies a scouting scv 5th rax for really 1 dt out
On January 09 2011 13:59 Slow Motion wrote: uh oh this game is gonna be short!
Actually I don't think so - if really takes a 3rd it could take awhile 2 dts at really's base 1 attacks in the main, scanned, destroyed the other at the nat - attacking tanks tyson adding 3rd and 4th gates!
lol time to get those templars han
DTs are doing a lot of damage
What a sexy build by Really. :D
tyson's dts obviously saw all the mnm dt still swiping at really's tanks and goons pick off another tank that got too far ahead! really's in bad shape!
tyson still adding more dts really moving forwards with more mnm and 3 tanks/3 scvs tyson micro'ing surprisingly well dt here and swiping at really's army! scan!
wow really...trying out this build eh?
really Really? Going M&M against Protoss? Those DTs are slaughtering those marines.
Tyson needs to get something with splash, I feel...
wtf - no storm no templar? just more and more dt's? well really doesn't have that much energy another dt, another scan 2 more dts in reserve ebay is done! really's right at tyson's bridge another scan another dead dt! another scan another dead dt! tyson now has his back against his nat's base! arbiter is out!
man how many scans does really have
really has no detection - arbiter forces really to retreat! turret under construction destroyed cloaked zealots ripping apart mnm!
PWNED GOOD JOB <3 always sweet to force terrans to waste scans by using dts :x
as a protoss player this is so sweet to see
Wow, using DT to waste scan and saves himself with arbiter. Sick game plan from Tyson.
Clutch arbiterssssssssss. No scans left from Really, and his push got annihilated.
I guess the DTs really helped, burned off the scans so the arbiter could hold the front.
arbiter now in the red though! tyson has his 3rd up at 7! adds another gateway! tyson needs another arbiter! lol does really even have a starport? he's still pumping mnm from 5 raxes scv moved to 1 to take his 3rd though
i want to see reavers rape those marines
Really has an SCV positioned at the 12, possibly to take an expo.
really takes his 3rd at 1 tyson - dts are pretty cool but consider a templar or two? you already have the buildings...
I want to see reavers and marines rape each other simultaneously like in Upmagic vs Nal_Ra.
more dt shenanigans vs really's army arbiter destroyed afew firebats out but zealot/goon/dt still wins! really's remaining mnm retreating!
fuck yeah tyson, knew i could count on you
the firebats were cute but they were too out of position
really lifts his raxes and finally adds his 2nd and 3rd factories his tank count was too low to make that work
Rax lifted, full mech transition!?
Ugh. Really mismicroed his Firebats to attack the Dragoons instead of the Zealots. His M&M force gets cut down quite fast.
So that's why I've never seen a firebat in a PvT before.
never seen firebats out in a tvp game
Really realizes m&m doesn't really work and floats all his rax away.
tyson's army with arbiter forces really's 3rd to lift now he's breaking what little forces there are at the nat, even if there's bunkers to support really looks tense and concedes with a shake of his head!
haha why did really do this . . . was he that scared of freaking han?

Overall, it was an interesting TvP, but the cute M&M strat just doesn't cut it against Protoss. It almost felt like Really threw away that game by going M&M, though Tyson played well with DTs transitioning into Arbiters to make Really use up scans.
That was actually quite fun to watch lol
voted yes cause it was the first time i've seen firebats out. quite a funny game

Crow tastes great when warm =P MBCGame Hero fighting!
The fortress, of regrets! Tyson the protoss at 3 Soulkey the Zerg at 11.5
pylon at the nat the initial ovie and probescout both going the wrong way
weird, probe scouts a bit around the left of the center - looking for an OL? forge at the nat 12hatch for SK, probe arrives in the main
SK starts his pool tyson has really stepped up his game even trying to disrupt mining with his probe without screwing it up nex after forge probe trails a drone as it heads out
gateway after nex gas starts for SK drone runs into Tyson's wall and backs off - did SK want to take his 3rd there? a different probe tails the drone as a probe still lives in SK's main cannon behind the nat probe vs drone at 9.5! drone has to back off!
SK's 3rd really getting delayed 2 lings coming but the drone has to wait ovie in tyson's main sees the core start before the probe dies it drops a manner pylon at sk's 3rd!
pro pylon block!
SK resorts to building the hatch off-position pylon cancelled lair starts for SK man his build has got to be disrupted
Why hatch there when the protoss knows it? and why that far away from the minerals?? I mean he could have waited for the zerglings to kill it
tyson playing it safe, warping a 2nd cannon at his nat 2 probes and 1 zealot holding the gaps spire starts as lair finishes, stargate also on the way

desperation, I guess his hatchery was already highly delayed his mining at the 3rd and his extra larva have been delayed too first sair out, scouting a 4th hatchery at the proper spot at SK's 3rd
On January 09 2011 14:22 Craton wrote: scared girl got some good air
She sure did. Genuine surprise lol.
OL checking out Tyson's nat, suicided north - sees the finished robo there 2 ovies dead to sairs so far a 3rd being worked on at the 3rd 5th hatch at the nat
scourge scouting tyson's main - sees the support bay one sair scourged core spinning tyson makes a face
5 slow zealots head out and make the lings dance 6 lings run by into tyson's main! whoops! attack the stargate forge spinning...
tyson ballsy for going sair-reaver though, can he pull it off? scourge checking out the nat - it really wants to ram into the shuttle! 2 more gates in tyson's main lings net 2 probe kills at tyson's nat
another gateway for tyson in his main is that his 4th? SK massing mutas only now adding evo/den, tyson might not be ready for this strange timing...
but a probe sent out to scout runs into the muta mass tyson knows what's up, sends his sairs back to his main nex, adding a cannon there too shuttle drops a probe at 4.5 unescorted shuttle heading west
shuttle so close to getting intercepted..
Bunch of scourge flying around looking for the shuttle.
bunch o' scourge approach tyson's nat choke mutas pick off the probe at 4.5 lots of scourge flying around speed shuttle heading up the west of the map! sees the morphing hatch at 8.5 reaver dropped at 10! tons of scourge come and scourge the shuttle...
Shuttle and Reaver traded for a drone or two.
thats a lot of scourges.... han better be careful with his corsairs
sairs net a few ol kills at SK's nat though and back off so many scourge arrive in tyson's main - and mutas too SK totally fucks up his scourge micro, only on sair dies the mutas have to back off now 2 more sairs explode
another shuttle out, loads up another reaver first archon morphed... zealot speed done, they back off after running into a bunch of mutas though shuttle drops at 12.5 with sair escort! lots of hydra there but the shuttle escapes ton of scourge heading towards tyson's sairs - tyson's sairs take out most of them but shuttle gets scourged, reaver dropped
harassment not doing much of anything..
Another shuttle arrives, gets a kill before being chased off by hydras. A bunch of scourge show up and take out corsairs and the shuttle. But the Reaver is safe.
a lot of speedlots out for han
SK finally massing hydra one archon by his nat ignored by the hydra until they wake up tyson with like 2 groups of speedlots in response though! tyson takes a 3rd at 4.5 4 idle drones at SK's 4th?
SK massing hydra/muta and they're heading towards tyson's nat choke though new shuttle loads up the stranded reaver realots move out and force the hydra back mutas pick off a shuttle but 2 reavers stranded midmap as the sairs drive the mutas away
shuttle managed to unload before dying
sairs fly around an archon which scrape the annoying scourge off them tyson taking a 4th at inner 2 mutas pick off the reavers though!
should not be doing shuttle reaver so much when he doesn't have air superiority at all. need to focus on ground army with ht.
Han pushing in with speedlots
a few lurkers out 1 destroyed before burrowing but tyson nicely walks his zealots through the others - yikes tyson drops a new reaver to support his MASS zealots attacking SK's 3rd - mutas arrive to pick off the reaver and attack the zealots tyson takes a deep breath...his 4th canceled
dammit han zealots and reavers can't shoot up why can't you learn this
Soulkey getting his queens next up.
to be honest, I'm pretty impressed with tyson's control this game and unimpressed with soulkey's but soulkey is countering tyson's strategy perfectly well, and his control in his defense is good mutas find tyson's 3rd at 4.5, 3 cannons aren't enough to stop it hydra knocking at tyson's front door this is it!
Australia 7069 Posts
how is soulkey getting so much...stuff =.= I swear he's made like 900000000 scourge this game but he still has a bazillion mutas and hydras, its insane
1 sair sent to 4.5 as a donation a good storm delays the breaking of tyson's nat, reavers still doing damage actually tyson holds for now, reaver in the red commando zealots net a few drone kills at the 3rd or 4th? but hydra finish off those too
Mutas killing the third, hydras massing up outside the natural.
han's just doing a terrible job
Reaver picked off by mutas, Soulkey moving in. Too much stuff, Han ggs.

hmm, bad game, too much difference in skill level
tyson concedes...just a single kill for him before he falls
Well then vZ was fail.
I like the babes on Cratonz stream, but needed to mute
tyson was hoping for more, you could see it in his eyes hes still great protoss and will surprise many ppl this round
sea should come out now..

Man, I wish Tyson played a better game. I was explaining the match to my non-Starcraft room mate, and though he seemed interested, I knew that the game was definitely not high level enough to be a good representation of the best that BW can offer.

For a complete newcomer to BW it's not necessarily the highest level games that necessarily offer the most to them, especially in terms of mindgames.

You should watch his game against Shuttle on Bloody Ridge then. Awesome game. Also beat Best in OSL qualifiers, then fell to Calm in the Ro36. Tyson is very good, PvZ is weak though, needs to work on that a lot.
With Light eliminated, MBC probably can't overcome Soulkey/Zero.

I would have led off with Sea...
GO HYUN GO! (dude who called it - pro.)
Well a SK win is a SK win, but he didn't have too much in the way of an opponent this game. In any event...SK and WOONGJIN FIGHTING!
SK in red at 4 Hyun in teal at 12 The fun times begin on Aztec SK with the ovie scout advantage
both players opening with ovie first
Hyun 12hatch SK 12pool, gas
awww little kid in stars jearsy. Nice to see koreans rocking the team gear.
both players finish their builds appropriately with expo, or pool/gas SK still adding drones after pool, starts his lair
SK's ovie scout advantage paying off as he can skimp on lings until he sees them while Hyun has to guess
4 of SK's lings chasing 1 of Hyun's spire starts for SK he starts a creep at his nat Hyun's lair just finishes now, his spire starts
Both players take their nat gasses at around the same time one ling sacrificed by Hyun to see SK's nat and even then he sends a lot of lings forwards
wtf don't attack Hyun - not only do you not have many more lings, he has a sunken! both players on 2 gasses now first 2 mutas out for SK
2 mutas find one of Hyun's ovies and destroys it only now Hyun's mutas spawn, 5 of them
hyun spreading his lings out for info SK approaching hyun's main - 3 drone kills! Hyun's mutas slow to respond...
Hyun with 4 drones on his nat gas he can't afford that now more mutas heading north SK looks like he has a ton of mutas already and plenty of scourge too Hyun adding more scourge, hope his control is good
Fight near Soulkey's base, Soulkey falling back, scourge coming from everywhere.
Hyun lands a ton of scourge - but did they hit the same muta? he dodges scourge well - until the last few hit hyun maybe winning the scourge battle in SK's main? yes yes yes! SK loses all of his mutas!
Soulkey loses all his mutas, leaving Hyun to do what he wants. gg.
SK looks shaken! his new mutas engage hyun's mutas...and lose again all dornes at his nat destroyed he lands a scourge but Hyun has new mutas coming... SK concedes

nice micro. Free/Zero vs. Sea/Hyun
Soulkey GGs? Hyun wins? It seems that MBC may be back in the game. Nice control from Hyun. Disappointed that the game didn't go beyond muta harass, though.
Looks like Hyun has been practicing his muta control Good job!
zero coming out for Stars?
Losing to Hyun is moderately unacceptable. But at least he didn't lose to Saint , who somehow still has a job.

Hrm, you know I never ever consider free a sure favorite in any match...he just feels so shaky all the time 12hatch
pool starts in the main probe still dealing damage to drones free takes his nat is it before forge? yes it is, forge starts
gateway after forge pretty greedy but so is hyun, taking his 3rd at 4.5 and finally his gas
one cannon all the way to the left at the nat - can cover the high ground but not the right gateway? OL checking out free's nat
lair starts for hyun another slow OL heading towards free's bases something planned or just 2 free giveaways to sairs? free yawns in his booth core starts
OL slowly heading into the main, free takes his nat gas scouting probe still alive, a few more lings appear - 8? one zealot heading out
lair finishes, spire starts forge starts spinning 10 lings approach the choke but back off as a zealot holds the gap scouting probe finally destroyed citadel for free as his stargate lights up 2nd gateway at his nat
1 ling sacrificed to test free's wall 4th hatch at the nat 5th at the 3rd sair arrives at the 3rd to see everything hyun takes his 2nd gas
OL arrives at the nat just as scourge spawn, no more free ovies for you core starts spinning, a cannon added to the main
evo chamber at the nat free in his brilliance lets a bunch of lings through, the lings destroy the nat cannon and better, a few scourge land too! 2 lings in the main
at least one probe kill in the main sunken starts behind evo at the nat 4 kill ling in the main before it dies?!?! also a sunken behind evo at the 3rd queen's nest already!
unusual build - no den anywhere as far as I can tell zealot/1 goon attacks the nat drones pulled but the sunken is taken down zealots are speedy lots of lings rushing back to fight hyun losing a LOT of drones
he could lose right here pure ling ain't that great against zealots 4 still live in his nat finally only 2 left but free reinforcing with more hive starts in his main
Pretty good job there Free!!
a zealot scores another drone kill in hyun's main totally skimped on sunkens considering that he skipped den...
I love how Free charges in at zerg's simcities
free preparing to take his 3rd at 9.5 sairs finding more slow ol's to kill hyun doesn't have a shred of ground-to-air spore morphing but too late bunch of scourge fly into sairs, only a few destroyed 1 queen out but sairs destroy it before it can do anything 2 queens now, back to 1
Thx to darn Stars coach I'm gonna be below 0 points in FPL -.-
dark archon morphing for free mass lings moving towards free's 3rd zealot/archon already there though... hyun's drone count pitifully low
whats the dark archon for?
lol. hyun reverting back to his old ways
dark archon vs queen gogogo
2 dts heading out zealots actually snipe an archon but it won't be enough 4 cannons vs tons of lings near free's 3rd here comes the attack wait hyun doesn't send in all his lings at once? protoss ball heads to hyun's nat the attack isn't controlled well but it doesn't matter plus 2 dts in the mix with no detect? dark archon does nothing - or manner MC?
free reinforcing with a ton of forces, hyun has nothing it's over hyun slow to concede

lol these attacks at the Natural (that he BOTH scouted) seemed to have surprised Hyun a lot.
Hyun GGs Free takes the victory 3-2 Woongjin. Sea next probably.

Hyun gets SMASHED by Free. That clutch maelstrom snowballed into a huge advantage, even though Free lost some corsairs due to negligence. That feedbacked (fedback?) queen at the end was the cherry on top of the cake.
no surprise there. GJ free. free vs. sea incoming?

congrats on Marine! comrade
Sea adding an armory at his nat, 2 vultures head out and run into goons with so much hp the survive though tribunal finishes 4th? gateway coming for free sea takes his 3rd gas
interesting, sea depot-walled the bridges to his 3rd? well free pylon-walled his 3rd too, fair's fair I suppose obs checking out sea's main
lol 2 vultures get by the 2 pylons walling 11.5 vultures net a few probes before they expire
Sea adding starport, an extra turret to his 3rd sea with just 2 vultures running around laying a few mines Sea adding his 4th-7th factories the transition to units starts now! free taking a 4th at 1.5, adds a 2nd stargate
sea's vultures check out the western expos but not here Sea does scan 1.5 and must see the pylons there, at least 4 vultures head up that way, 1 dies to goons en route
free adding another gateway, is that his 6th? goons clearing the mines to free's 4th as 3 vultures pointlessly hit the buildings, including a spinning forge probes maynarded to 1.5 - just as the last vulture expires
sea now on double armory first dropship out, facility researching dropship heads past an observer at 3 though, free moving goons towards 1.5
2 vulture drop at 1.5 does almost nothing arbiter heads to sea's nat - recalls right by the dual armories!

Nasty, Sea just loses two armories without much of a struggle.
sea loses both armories - upgrade interruptions goons focus fire on the facility, 2 scvs repairing! 3 now, goons lose not much damage but did stop the metal upgrade! 4th CC interrupted at the nat too 2 more armories already under construction in sea's main
sea's looking a bit frustrated
free adding 2 gateways to 1.5 and 2 more to his main mass vulture moving out, run into free's army mines beyond them arbiter heading to sea's nat again! freezes a vessel and maybe 2 scvs at the nat...
another recall coming? sea spots it oh no science vessell gets stasised...
a recall in the nat again probably not a good idea, sea's defenses were already there facility lifted almost no damage this time
looks like free is setting up for another recall
free's patented "instantly lose your army" recalls coming up? Sea floating his 4th CC towards 3, moves out with a lot of tank/vulture, emps an arb! 3 rines shoot at the arbiter
free runs 2 goons into mines sends a ground army to attack sea's sparsely-defending 4th, cc lifts and scvs run see rolling towards 1.5 with his army though, free could get his army trapped floating cc in the red!
nice emp. but the base is forced to evacuate
floating cc destroyed! free sacrificing zealots to mines despite having obs nearby Sea's tanks right outside free's megachoke! sieges up! one goliath frozen?
free attacking with a pathetically small group of units at sea's forces outside his nat and loses them, the rest of his units idle behind 3 tanks shelling 11.5 too ahh sea's tanks targetting the nat pylon wall are pretty clumped (and vulnerable!)
sea pressuring free's natural!
arb heading in emp'd! but here come 3 more arbs 2 more emp'd! wow free failing on all fronts, his mouth is wide open
EMP goes off on top of the two arbiters!

sea rebuilding 3 arbiter heading SW! Sea takes out free's nat 1 goliath attacking free's new nex at 8.5
wow that one goliath is doing a lot of damage
free storms a few units heading towards 1 but he has no other army to resist well fresh forces from his main clear out a few units left at his nat... emp on the arb at 1.5, and some goons...
OH emp goes off on the arbiter. wow!
nice, activates a mine and drags it back to a zillion goons goliath/vulture taking out 1 vultures hitting the empty 8.5 base 2 tanks moving into 1.5 with others below it to support
Sea with new CC's at 7 and 7.5, new factories being built at 7.5 I think, too
Why does Sea have a CC in the middle of the map being destroyed by goons? doesn't matter though Free clusters his forces again the siege on 1.5 still continues

Looks like (glasses) he's pretty fucked. Sea has more bases than Free now, looks like 3 vs 2 mining atm
United States 13143 Posts
free is down to 3 bases, Sea is on 6 or so?
but sea loses his vessel at 1.5 and doesn't scan - double emp on one arb, the other freezes a few units outside 1.5 free basically has 11.5 and 1.5 mining whiel sea has 6, 7, 7.5, and 3
free throws a bunch of units at the narrow choke at 1 but he freezes the rest of them a short reprieve for him, but it won't last more units are already headed north to rescue the frozen units
One of free's last mining bases being shelled. Attack on Sea's base repelled.
Sea restarts the attack on 1.5 and now free has almost no units there while sea has more small army attacks sea's 3, will take it out but it doesn't matter a small army of sea's from his main responds ends it with constant reinforcements despite losing more than he destroys sea so rich now, and free so poor...

1 base vs 5 base why is free even trying
free basically mining only from 11.5 - and here comes the terran army or it moves towards the main instead? free concedes
We get a final match - who will stars throw against Sea to try to snatch victory?

Free GG's, the pretty ones are always swallowed by the sea.
Free GGs Sea brings it to the Final Game. Probably Sea vs Zero?

obvious choice is Zero... interesting how both teams traded 1 win each constantly can MBSea break the trend and take home the victory?
Sea once again beasting in the PL when there's less pressure.
Sea v. Zero would make the most sense
wee good for my fanboism bad for my fpl o.q. with Jangbi and Reall winning on my Anti its over anyways :D

so disappointing by sea D:
God Damn Zero's two-Hatch Muta is fucking great. Sea made the error of acting as if it were a 12-Hatch as opposed to twelve-pool though. Sea GGs, nobody in the Stars vs MBC won more than one game today

why soooo greedy with Turret timing. Scouted second gas plus NO DRONES AT ALL. You have a few extra minerals to spend without losing much.

Congrats to Woongjin for winning, nice job, even though MBC put up a good fight as well! Didn't watch any of these games, but this match should give Woongjin a big confidence boost now. Hopefully, they'll stop moping in their interviews about being in a slump, hahaha. ^^
woongjin is a lot better then their results suggest imo
wow, so the teams traded wins. gj zero
Sea's judgement in TvZ has been so poor lately. Oh well.
Craton, thanks for posting your stream after--I fell asleep after Sea vs Free xD. You're so awesome for streaming these games for us!
I question why Sea didn't make turret ASAP when he clearly saw the natural not being nicely saturated. Maybe I was watching the stream last night so I can't see it again right now, but he did see the natural's drone count right?
Awesome series- so exciting! I love Winner's league. So good to see Zero win an ace match too. Ace matches always were his biggest problem last season.
Sea has been losing crucial matches recently. He might lose his leadership in the team. Very disappointing.
