oh i've seen it but i didn't know that's why haha so weird.. thanks :D
oh lol. i'm not sure i know "why" per se either. or why it's never been fixed. i've never even really heard it mentioned before but it was so blatant here, modesty just lost units for no reason
What bug? The lurkers were killed by storm as they hatched. There is no death animation for units that are part way through coming out of an egg. It happens all the time...
i've seen this bug a couple times. and if i recall correctly, the eggs were STILL alive after the storm and there was NO blood after the lurkers vanished :O

lol, I wouldn't count on it. His performance in the proleague has been lackluster at best. let's hope he's going to perform better.
Oov has had a lot of time to prepare builds for the final. I'm quite sure Fantasy will do well in Shanghai, he's got the all-time best post-season record.

That may be true, but I still feel SKT needs to ink down a more solid Terran. I mean, Fantasy has his highs but also his lows. Consistency like that of Bisu's, I feel, is really important especially in team leagues.

Its hard to have more solid Terran than Fantasy. Not only Terrans are generally inconsistent (with many periods of slump), but most of them struggle hard against protoss players, so terran with good TvP is worth of any money. So who else? Flash and...
you could just tell free was pissed after losing his entire probe line to TWO vultures with low hp and no mines. he impulsively attacked the natural and paid the price...
One of the caster said that this 3 base hydra is a new strategy variant .
What you do is you go for a 3 base 5 hatch hydra build and delay lair as long as possible. You only make a few hydras. Then when the first corsair arrives, it can't scout much because there are hydras. And since it detects no lair upgrade. P will have to constantly worry about a all-in hydra bust (the P reaction is cannon up the front). At this point Zerg has 2 choices, 1 is to drone if P cannons up(it was shown in a previous ZvP a few days ago). 2 is go real hydra bust if P doesn't have enough cannons.
Those 2 vultures killing the entire probe line for Fantasy were insane. One of another "wow" moment I've had watching it. It's only Fantasy who can do this. Really distinguishable play.
I'm pretty sure he was behind before vultures got him the decisive advantage.
So pissed off at Free right now. Loosing the probes in your natural to 2 vultures is one thing, but throwing the game away by suiciding your whole army should never happen in professional play.
