that was completely maps fault. I don't see how Hydra played any better just abusing the crap out of the map when Stork has so little options to deal with it all.

This is exactly the reason WHY we need MSL.

? I'd blame the map instead of Hydra, but doubt you'd want to do that.

At this point just bring back the original Byzantium. Think of it as affirmative action for Protoss.

Even though many blame Hydra for having abused the map, he really impressed me with his play. His multi-tasking is so sick. Finally, I've become his fan ^^

His reaver opening may have held 3 hatch hydra...but really this map where you can perform 3cm drop into main in 3 different location... Bisu may not have held...

I don't think there is a proper build to defend this with such a short air distance.
Maybe a low eco very fast dt corsair....

Stork probably wasn't in top gear for this game though, I believe he had to go to a funeral recently which definitely affected his prep time and mental state

This is kind of unfair to Stork. Compared to his MSL game yesterday, he:

- did get cannons in time
- did build units and get reavers out in time
- did build cannons in his main to prep for the muta switch

But you can't scout slow drop almost until it happens, which wouldn't have been a big problem except that the air distance on Pathfinder is &^*&% short. I mean, if he was anticipating this a 2-gate or 1-gate tech instead of FFE might have been better, but those aren't surefire wins either: there's a reason all Protoss go FFE these days. 2-gate can be rebuffed by good sim-city, scouting, and lings without too much trouble by a good Z (which Hydra is); 1-gate tech leaves gets your 2nd gas up later, means later tech units, etc. (at least that's how I understand it, I could be wrong on the details).

with reavers u can't even stop hydras because of dodgy scarabs. Using templar tech u need many templars and storm is not guranteed to fully hit hydras.

I don't think it's so much "blaming Hydra for abusing the map" as it is "Blaming the mapmakers for making a map which can be abused so hard".

I'm just finding something to blame at the moment. -.-

Bisu lost his only game on this map, to Shine (because of course he did).

Instead of being passive and doing FE, he could've just cheese like proxy gates or something, take the initiative instead of getting controlled... A player as good as he is (I saw the matches yesterday his micro is top notch) can just cheese and win.
