This was pretty much an instructional video on what you shouldn't do against mech lol. Don't expand past your fourth, let your expos be cleared by vultures and repeatedly suicide your units against the terran army when he has turret support.

I think the real lesson here is to never send Chavi.

It's not awesome, this game was so boring. He lost so many probes to vultures and Leta still just sat back and let him expand like mad =x
Hardly any less entertaining than Carriers or whatever else late game PvT strategy Grape could've chosen to go for. I like these kinds of slugfests, that's all.

The slugfests at the end were interesting, I agree, I was actually surprised Grape won after he threw all those units away, and to see him just "brute force" it was kinda entertaining. And yes, if Leta just turtled until he got wrecked by/successfully defended carriers, I would call that a boring game too.
But didn't Leta used to be known as a very creative, dynamic player?

Flash broke him, unfortunately. I don't think he's ever coming back. I hope he does but I doubt he will.
Great - rubbish zerg who only turtles every game but the difference is he is waiting to die. Play terran then. Even ZvZ he come out with turtle strategies, lmao.

And horang2, unfortunately, because he's the vP sniper. :\
Yeah Stork would have no other option than to play very safe, since this is so predictable horang could get away with a greedy build, so in the end a a pvp against a pvp sniper at a disadvantage. Khan is in a pickle.
That is why you are supposed to see one Horang2 pvp a day. Because he only comes out to snipe tosses and you don't send tosses against him. Lesson learned the hard way by January.
See, that the problem with the Protoss race. The best pvz, best pvt, and best pvp aren't concentrated in one gamer, like the cases of the other two races. And that's why it's very hard to find a Protoss that truly dominates the competition.

The other problem would be that best pvt is currently getting rolled by Flash, and many other terrans pull wins against all the best pvt'ers. And just recently all best pvz's were losing to any zerg(I mean Shine-level).
Since I dont watch it live and hopefully Hite will win and yes, Hite wins :D
I don't expect Horang2 will play today but I'm wrong. 3K from him was amazing especially against Stork. Congrats Hite and thank you Horang2 and Leta :D
why the FUCK would you intentionally send out tosses against Horang2
Not only does he have a 70% record vP, his opponents are almost entirely a mix of high-A to S-class in that matchup. Only Bisu has really gotten the best of him and they've only played approximately twice so it's tough to say if that trend would continue.
I mean, I get that you want to send out your best player, Stork, in a situation like this. However, it is important to note what happens when you do this:
3. Horang2 transforms into Flash for the duration of the matchup.
His stats are that good and his hitlist is that impressive. When you are down to your last player, you obviously want to maximize your chance of the 3kill, but with a team stacked against Protoss players and a little baby Flash in the booth, you just can't rely on that kind of shit to muscle through a match where you are not even remotely favored. I don't care if you aren't ultra-confident in your young players: you send them out and give them a shot.

Shuttle used to be an amazing PvP sniper...+70% win rate iirc. So in that way, it would be more appropriate to say Horang2 replaced Shuttle.
what are you talking about. is Shuttle in Hite?
I think Ass meant replaced him as the PvP king of the league. Before H&S, it was Bisu, and earlier still, Best (until Stork dealt him a lesson he will never forget).
Looks like Horang2 has faced Shuttle once so far. Check this to see who won.

And free.
But aside from Bisu's God-streak, it's basically been Horang2 and Shuttle as the top 2 PvPers for the last year or so.
I checked what I thought were the results this morning and was like "Oh cool Leta got an all-kill." But later when I went to check the recommended games, I realized I can't read. TT
At least he managed to beat Chavi. Thats nice I guess.
Yeah can anyone at least link to where the interview is? I would be interested in at least doing a google translate to get a general idea of what is said. Leta getting 1win when the team also won allowing for an interview after a long time, as for Horang2 he is just awesome
Obviously not going to make a thread with just google translate just want a feel for what they say.

Lol nevermind. I realize the online translators are bad, but this... May have been because I had to use a different online translator because viewing the site through google translate the actual interview wasn't there.
I found Leta's interview somehow, but can't find it again. I know it's there somewhere but for some reason can only find the Horang2 one. When it had both Leta and Horang2 there was even a photo of them together.
This is a bump because I am behind with watching Broodwar. I have only just watched this series (I watch all games in order). After 2 incredible PvPs and a flawless PvZ I would really love to read the winners interview.
I think it's a bit much to ask a translator to translate something so old. This series wasn't very important either just a regular set of matches, just enjoy the games and if you really want the interviews you can read the "translated" ones I did lol.
