Can't be as bad/awesome as losing to 4 pool right after blocking it with a bunker.

zerg progamers are so relunctant to make spores even after they see cloaked wraiths...i mean come on wtf
|
Checking the forum after watching the game, I'm really glad to see that everyone's as perplexed as me with regards to Fantasy's build. I have no idea what the game plan was...

i'll go first. calm 5 pools while fantasy proxy 8 raxes. Calm's zergs kill all scvs while Fantasy's marines kill all drones. Fantasy lifts his CC but loses his marine to zerglings. Then they both stare blankly.

I saw a comment of someone saying it's weird everyone already crowned Stork for the winner of this OSL - I seriously don't think there should be any doubt about that for anyone watching these games..
Remember, fantasy is the same person who played one of the best (IMO of course) finals in the incruit osl against Stork. Fantasy's build on plasma was a thing of beauty, and that kind of skill is not something to be overlooked, even in the current era of Stork vs T (and in light of these games, which are admittedly something like a train wreck)

This is not mindgame/metagame perfect TvZ, this is cleverness vs cleverness, and you see who's breaks first.
It's like a train wreck sliding 2 mph into a host of handicapped baby seals :x

fantasy manages to get an empty bunker up and calm runs away, killing depots and stuff while fantasy lands his CC and mines from his scv that built the bunker
calm ggs cuz he only has 3 lings.

and a factory almost done, and a rax covering your bunker (jaedong vs fantasy, but jd is awesome?)

Fantasy can really bring out his true abilities against certain opponents, such Flash/Stork/Jaedong.
On the other hand, whenever he faces Calm...

jaedong vs. midas ^^ jaedong owns bunkers 
edit: jaedong always makes it look like hes chasing the marines in and terran brings marines in instead of scvs right away

Regarding to whether a progamer has a game plan going into his game, there are two possible answers: Yes (1 in binary code) and No (0 in binary code). I guess Calm's value in the 2nd game was in the negative.

Calm just exudes a Clam aura that infects Fantasy to act more like FantaClam than Fantasy.

I think that if Fanta doesn't ''outsmart'' himself he'll definitely take this.

Yep, I literally shat my pants because I could not see how someone who practices the game 10 hours a day and probably makes $100k per year from said game lose in such a situation.
