It sounds like Oov had good timing with his agression and macro but screwed up his micro a bit.

PS 1/4
Furthermore, tournaments should use matchup-specific maps

oov said in an interview after winning CKCG that he hadn't prefared for the OSL games and it looked like he's telling the truth.

Okay I've just watched the Boxer/Rock game. So yeah, Rock clearly made some bad decisions (esp. getting his army stuck in Boxer's second nat spot like three times) and was unlucky with mines (although as TKWL said, Boxer dropped an insane amount of them everywhere), but on the other hand Boxer played plain perfect in the whole second part of the game and always exploited Rock's "mistakes". He kinda had the same look he had during that Boxer vs Joyo game, by the way.

Very entertaining game anyway, highly recommanded.

Makes total sense, he dominated CKCG with total class, probably just hasnt had the time to practice cause he was preparing hard for 1st at that event. I predict he will be more solid vs yellow with his strategy choice and in general.

Just watched the vod, Boxer vs Rock was one of the most entertaining vods I've seen in some time. Sure, Rock made mistakes but many of them were provoked by Boxer (cmon you're going to run into some mines when the whole fucking map is plastered with them) and Boxer just played brilliantly after the dt rush. There used to be a boxer-hype, but now we just seem to have the reverse, whatever Boxer does it is criticized or played down by saying it was all the opponents' fault. Can't you just face that Boxer played well this game? His tvp has been a lot better recently, he won wcg preliminaries in a group with 3 tosses and beat pj and kingdom in ckcg...
And wtf was with that Oov game? He played without vessels half the game but didn't even control his army properly And I don't really understand it, when people say that he just didn't practice, you need micro on every map and against every opponent and Oov's probably played soo many games on those maps, I doubt he'd forget it all in 2 weeks.
I'm really looking forward to next weeks, many nice mu's :D
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Here's my perspective on the games:

I agree 100%, but it wouldn't have been hard for Rock to win this game even while making mistakes. He just made an obscene number of them and got raped at every turn. Vulture harass defense was shit, suicided units to mines everywhere (i don't care how many mines there were, he dragged more into his army than he killed ), attacks were muddled and he fell into the same terrain traps over and over, he got hasty when he was winning and attack with 4 unfilled carriers making the tech choice pretty much useless. The Joyo game was Boxer being a genius and this game was Rock being a retard. That having been said, it was still flawless play by Boxer and he deserves the win. But if you want a good comparison I would say this is less like Boxer beating Joyo, and more like Boxer beating Yellow in the last duel league. Yellow pretty much shat his early victory away and got noobed for 40 minutes as if Boxers' units were invincible. Reminds me a lot of this game vs TheRock.

As for oov he played like he was drunk and lost 100 rines to random lurks in the middle of the map. I don't care what he was or wasn't practicing for before...he simply played bad, almost like he was over tired or stressed or something, but not underpracticed.

Stork is a douchebag and I'm going to fly to korea tomorrow just to punch him in the mouth. The next time a Toss plays gay against goldenboy I'm going to freak out! He sucks at TvP so just play straight up and win you dumbasses!

Jju likes to make lings...Chojja doesn't...god zvz is boring...

That's pretty much how I saw it. Basically I'm pissed at Stork and sad for Rock. Seeing Tosses lose is always hard.

I don't think you're giving Boxer enough credit.

Yes, his opponent made mistakes, but it is easy to get flustered after being overconfident and seeing someone you thought you defeated stay alive and harass you. Once a player gets flustered, they will make more mistakes, and become more flustered (which is why you need to stay calm when play Broodwar). So I would give SlayerS_`BoxeR` credit for his excellent come-from-behind play style (which I'm sure is fucking annoying to face).

Yes, Rock could have played better, but his mistakes, exploited and magnified by Boxer's excellent play, led to this awesome comeback (much more so than the Boxer vs. Yellow game.

I wouldn't put this on the insane level of Boxer vs. Joyo, but it certainly seems close.

Go to jju and thank him for Game


I notice most of the people when Chojja goes to do this act really shy and weird about it. Kinda pisses me off. They all give like a really noodle handshake and look like wimps. Eh I really wish Chojja won this one, I fucking hate Jju.

Is week 5 today? I was checking out OGN's schedule and it says 08.31 for week 5 matches. There doesn't seem to be anything scheduled on FighterForum though. :o

Anyone can confirm/infirm?
