It's Girl K
name of drama is "girl k"? or "girl" ?with u being "girl" k(okay)
G'Night everyone... If anyone else could do the interviews, that'd be wonderful... Sorry, but me going to bed now~ :D GOGO BOTH TEAMS!!! JAEDONG please win~
Of course...... JvZ again! Bloody CROIKEY MAN..... the hell with your statistical odds of winning with map sniping, Jaedong playing T or P has higher odds of producing epic!
Jaedong's overlord headed in the incorrect direction Orion's is Pool first for both players Gas being taken for Jaedong a bit faster Orion mineral tricks a drone over to expo to the 6 oclock
The Tyrant goes for superior tech... His control is unamatched as he runs into Orion's base and kills off a lot of zerglings. Orion's zerglings futilely attack the Tyrant's zerglings.
Jaedong's got lings in Orion's main All of Orion's lings get taken out, three drones are forced off Orion setting up a panic sunken, Jaedong has killed off atleast 5 drones of Orion's by the time his lings are out, and the sunken is up Orion's lair is up, at the same time as Jaedong's Spire is 1/2 way done
The Tyrant wreaks havoc in the sad base of Orion. Orion is forced to waste minerals in a sunken. The Tyrant gets quicker feet on his zerglings and he starts running circles around Orion's lesser zerglings..
Jaedong knows nothing about the 6, and Orion is making his spire there At least I'm pretty sure he knows nothing about it Pokes in with group of lings to pick off a gas drone Orion down to 9 supply, to Jaedong's 13
Two mutas are out for Jaedong, killing the drones of Orion Three mutas Three supply for Orion Scourge have been made, and Jaedong is microing them down
Mutalisks already out for the Tyrant. Orion gets a couple scourge but they hopefully fly towards an untouchable mark... Jaedong micros his units and expertly picks off everything The Tyrant doesn't need the see the hidden expo, he still rolls over the doomed ACE player GG...
Is Jaedong finding his JvZ again??? please let's have a period of time where it's JvALL not just a single race please... Last time he was dominant in everything it was JvZ moreso than others so I'll hope this translate to another period of JD dominance!!!
On February 19 2012 14:36 rabidch wrote: well that was quite the game.
I really didn't get what Orion was thinking, he knew what build JD was doing he knew ling count and timing, how the fuck did he fail so hard to deflect that. What was the point of moving out with those first 4 lings. "Quite" indeed.

In that game's case maybe, but in general terms micro and control are two separate things
micro is individual control of a unit to maximize its life and efficiency control is manipulate a group to gain positional advantage or just have better engagement angle or map control over the opponent,

youre cruel lol
come to think of it, in 3 or 2 players map zvz 1 base muta sounds like a solid strategy if you are confident with your ling and muta control and can finish it during the first 5-8 mutas

I agree that map control is something else, not what you described though. Engagements fall under micro for me. Different school of thought I guess.
Commentators' Comments: The first game, the Tyrant showed why he's called his name again.
Q: Congrats on returning again as the Tyrant A: Yes thank you. [chill~]
Q: You had a period of time where you weren't as dominant as you were. But you came back; did you think to yourself as the Tyrant? A: I like tyrant better.
Q: We showed videos during the commercial breaks about your "Constipation" How'd you like it? A: Seeing it again
Q: This clip will probably be shown a lot throughout this season in different forms? What do you feel about this? A: Well it's my game so i guess that's a good thing to show it again and again.
Q: Personally, are you saving anything? (referring to how he saved an army up... about his real life financial state) A: No, not as much as I did during my "constipation" game.
Q: You're tied for 1st for zerg with SK. What do you think about your race for most wins? A: I'm really ambitious about this. I'll try my best to get most wins for a zerg.
Q: SK's probably thinking the same thing watching this right now? Anything you want to say to him? A: He's doing really well and I enjoy watching his games.
Q: No telling him to slow down his pace? A: No... Q: Haha you're so chill and confident.. Very fitting of the Tyrant.
Q: Anything you want on the race for the postseason? A: I'll do my best to try to get the team into the postseason.

Hopefully, y'all enjoy the interview I just posted... Sorry it was a bit late, I accidentally x'ed out my chrome and thought it was all gone.. Thankfully I reopened tab and it was all there~ GG now Jaedong's won, my life is complete~ haha except for the + Show Spoiler +
SKT-KT game where Bisu lost (I think not spoiling SKT-KT with my user ID would be a crime)
Gateway from both players White guy waving to the camera Gas is up slightly faster for Kal, not by a whole lot Hoon's scout is going in the 1 oclock direction Core is just about up for Hoon also, not sure about Kal's but I assume so

SKT-KT game where Bisu lost (I think not spoiling SKT-KT with my user ID would be a crime)
More favorable engagement for Kal Hoon loses a zealot and takes shots on two goons I tink Kal is forcing his way into Hoon's nat Hoon microing down Kal's goons very well Leaving Kal with only three goons left Support is up for Hoon first Kal went for Obs first
Shuttle heading out to join Goojilla's goons outside Jaehoon's nat - shuttle speed done, Jaehoon moves out with reaver/shuttle/goons - Goojilla's shuttle drops in the main!
Kal moves in with his army, the goons ahead of the shuttle Towards Hoon's ant Kal waiting on his shuttle Hoon is going to be the agressor Reaver dropped down, harassing Hoon's mineral line Speed shuttle is really hard to kill Hoon is pushing Kal all the way back now though Kal's one and only reaver goes down MONEY SCARAB kills atleast 5 goons Hoon has no reavers left, Kal brings back his harassing reaver and holds his nat
Speedshuttle heading out again for Kal, Jaehoon's army moving left and could intercept...Spy pylon will give Kal info though...and he slips the shuttle through on the left anyways...reaver drop at the nat - huge scarab!
Hoon sits back outside of the nat to wait on reinforcements Kal going up to 6 gates, against Hoon's 4 Kal's Speed Shuttle is headed up the far side of the map And will avoid the goons of Jaehoon Two goons are in position though Big scarab kills off quite a few, atleast 20 probes before it dies Supply favoring Kal now 93-82
Engagement midmap Hoon doesn't have speed shuttles still 100-85 Kal-Hoon Hoon tries some fancy harass, but gets dnied Forge and templar tech are up for Kal Nothing of the sort for Hoon
Jaehoon with some really big money scarabs, takes out 5 goons But Kal is pushing Hoon's goon only army back with speedlot goon reaver Jaehoon has nothing but goon, after he was too agressive with his reaver HT are out now 103-69 supply Hoon-Kal
Kal detaches his shuttle from his army time to deliver a killing blow?
But Jaehoon has forces there...still Kal manages to drop a reaver at the nat - immediately destroyed but another reaver dropped in the main - no good either
Another reaver in Jaehoon's main Kal taking his 3rd at the 5.5 Hoon really behind, things not looking good for him 126-91 Aswell as the tech advantage for Kal Hoon's harassing shuttle just about dies ><

Nanashin is doing a good job of advertising Korean movies. Watched I saw the devil after it caught my eye on his stream...
Piano, with one scv on gas, as his fact comes up SCV is going to not scout Tyson correctly at all Tyson has his core and one gate, one goon out at the moment One gate expo
Tyson with some awesome micro to stop the spider mines from detonating on his stacked goons His nat is up, well before Piano's is Obs should be out in a second, and he is going up to 3 gates Piano adding his second fact And Piano's TvZ is pretty good, as is his TvT
Three vultures run by into the main Spider mines being laid everywhere More units being brought into the nat Lots of probes dying to the vultures 36-33 supply Piano-Tyson Citadel and archives are both up
Three fact for Piano Still producing marines He's looking to expand to his 3rd Poor vulture getting ignored by the scv that is supposed to repair it Tyson wants to take his 3rd Forge is up, so is stargate and the tribunal is just about to finish
Tribunal warping in as Stargate finishes, there's also a forge
Goon/obs clearing some mines around the map
7 vulturepack laying mines among 4 goons...1 goon taken out with like 5 vultures for a mine - marines and 4 tanks and 3 other vultures attacking towards Bridge's warping 3rd...but they give that up and siege on Bridge's ridge
Four goons caught out midmap Surrounded by some vultures Marine, tank, vulture force moving into Tyson's 3rd A huge mine though, kills off lots of the vultures that tried to surround the goons Siege mode is done
Piano is ranking the gas of Tyson'a nat Adding a bunker even! Arbiters are out now He has detection though! DT is out Mine drag into some tanks, but it doesn't seem like enough The nat nexus is taking ALOT of fire It goes down!
Probes being transferred to the 3rd Nice timing by Tyson with a pylon wall to block his 3rd 6 facts for Piano He's trying to sneak some more vultures up the ramp, but cloaked probes do the trick Piano is going to push into Tyson's 3rd
The nat is back up, but the probes at the 3rd are all dying Turret is being made for some static detection Lots of speedlots are being rallied mid map, going to try and break Piano's tanks Goliath is out, the arbiter isn't going to die just yet Two tanks get stasised, but nothing much else happens
Almost all of Tyson's army is dead 91-71 Piano-Tyson The 3rd nexus is just barely holding in The 3rd is pretty much dead now, the nat is exposed and Piano is rallying into there

Except those other goons weren't actually at his nat either They were sitting above his main ramp doing nothing.
Great going for the 12 hatch Sea going to wall off his main Great's first drone scout going in the incorrect position, so is his overlord Pool is just about done for Great Drone scout almost gets killed by the first marine, some nice micro saves it
Fact is done for Sea Marine is hungry, and is looking for that injured drone Drone is going to mine out the minerals Hungry marine is defeated by the injured drone One vulture is out One starport is complete also, wraith being produced Great has a hydra den on the way, and his mineral only up Rax, Fact, Port then CC out of Sea
just go mech, sea. I've never seen great beat mech. maybe a bigger BW nerd than even me can provide an objection (I don't count his 2-hatch lurker busts)
Wraith is out harassing overlords now Hydras spitting acid at it, only one overlord kill has been made thus far Science facility is up, and academy is being added Fact is lifted

Wraith getting the full treatment, mass repair Great getting his 4th expo at 9 oclock, evo is added Sea pushing out with an MnM force, goin gup to 4 rax, ebay flashing 8 lurkers morphing in at once after the wraith dies Sea is going to SCOUT IT! All of the lurkers burrow though Lots and lots of MnM are dying to the mass of lurkers
Dropship out for Sea, going to drop Great's mineral only All the drones die at the mineral only, and the hatchery is getting focused down Lurker ling bust at the front, no siege mode One vessel goes down The bust kills off quite a few scvs and some marines Sea microing the marines from the drop nicely Great going to take out the backdoor of Sea

0-1 for the bio Hive is morphing, and a spire is up Seige mode is done, and the lurkers are unable to finish killing off the back door 64-87 supply Great-Sea +1 carapace is done, not sure about attack upgrades Dropshiup is on an intercept coarse with a pair of scourge Sea loses the dropship 5 rax now Defilers should be out soon Great now just getting back his mineral only

Lots of seige tanks pushing back Great's army Great might go for a sandwich on Sea's army Or not 3 defilers are out with the army now though Dark swarm is done, and lurkers are moving on from the back to try and surround Sea's army More reinforcements from the terran base though
The 9 olcock is coming under fire, but the dark swarm is alot More bio and tank troops are being rallied towards Sea's leftover forces Loses a vessel, but there are still 3 1-1 for the lurkers
Lurker drop into the minreal only for Great Sea is oging to push into the nat of Great burrows lurkesr all around Marines going to die no matter where they run Mineral only forced to lift off 92-95 supply Great-Sea Really close
Sea taking another expo at 3 oclock Great taking another expo aswell at 11 main Sea snipes the defiler with ther army midmap The lurker spines are enough to rip through the marines Sea still unable to mine from his mineral only Lurkers dropped in the main of Sea Defiler's clutch storm SEA ><
The lurkers in the main finally die The one in the mineral only still has not Lots of lings harassing the 3 oclock 20 kill lurker at Sea's mineral only The 3 oclock is being ravaged Nydus at Great's 9 olcock is dead, and alot of the drones and the hatchery even goes down Sea is just pushing into the nat os Great Lurkers in Sea's main disrupting everything Ultra cavern out for Great now Playgu on alot of Sea's forces
Sea isn't mining at this point, I don't think Great has 5 base, against Sea's 4 base, but only a couple are mining for Great, and Sea both FINALLY Sea cleans up the lurkers in his main
Ultra ling gets dropped into Sea's main, but without defiler support nothing really dies Eraser on Great's drones on the mineral only 61-116 Great-Sea Lots and lots of drones are dying Lots of idle scvs in Sea's nat
Sea's vessel "cloud" reduced to 3 vessels Sea has 1k gas banked, but no minerals 9 clock is back up for Great, but immediately gets sshut down Vessels over extending themselves? Playgu on some of the bio force 3 ultras going to really eat them up 54-123 Great taking 1 nat now
Sea pushing into Great's nat But the attack gets thwarted with ease Sea pushing into 1 oclock One fresh from the egg defiler gets killed off But another from the main is there to swarm, not soon enough as the hatch geos down The 6.5 goes down also! Great on three mining bases now
Sea lifted his 3 oclock after a ling attack Drop on the 1 mineral only, but an ultra and two lings stop it Sea is pushing the nat of Great again, but AGAIN gets pushed back Hatch at 1 oclock mineral only gets cancelled, or killed don't really know which one Very nice positioning of the MnM at the 1 main, killing ALOT of lings and drones
Sea going to push the nat YET AGAIN Still can't breat it it seems 2-3 or 3-3 bio is very scary Just snipe the stupid nydus Sea >< Finally, Sea's broken into the nat

great doesn't know how to end the game.
I actually stopped paying attention around that point and then tuned in like 5 minutes later to see Sea very much alive. I was(and am) so confused.
defiler ling got caught in the temple backdoor losing great the top nat and drones, solid from sea to come back. though great was fking terrible late game

Still... doesn't sound like a reason enough to cry... o.o maybe he was just very tired... i hope it was this
Seriously, look at Ace's choices in their last 6 matches. I think they have NO interest in making the playoffs. They send great every goddamn match and they've benched their better players. Look I know they got more important things on their plate than brood war, but I thought making the playoffs was their goal

i don't remember those games very well - one of them was killer getting smashed, right? killer not performing has been a big deal, he looked like he was going to be nearly as strong as baby this season
Starport is about to finish for Baby CC is about done for both players Canata going two port, Baby going one port Bay's vulture almost sneaks in, but Canata walled Speed for vultures done for Baby before Canata Cloak being researched by Baby
I think Sea is considering retirement... his results and mental state... They're so intensely depressing. I bet he wants to quit but can't bear to do so on a team with no sponsor in a sport that isn't necessarily dying but can't even get the OSL sponsored at this point...
Firebathero looking anxiously Two wraiths of Canata are going to cloak and fly into Baby's main to harass Army is trying to get up, 3 wraiths pew pew pewing away at the scv building the armoy WOW, Baby takes out two of the three wraiths
Second fact being added for Canata Armory up for Baby 4 wraiths against Baby's 3 Baby pushing out with some marines, 4 tanks and his wraiths Army advantage goes to Baby, if Canata doesn't have siege
It doesn't seem like Canata has seige Canata has seige now Baby taking a 3rd, while trying to keep Canata inside his nat Canata moves out with both his wraiths and his army He manages to snipe two of Baby's wraiths 3rd CC for Canata, starts just as Baby's finishes
Looks like sea was frustrated that he couldn't play as well he could.
Also during interview, the caster was a bit harsh, saying that he's performance lacking. Saying that "even it was a win, the performance was poor" And then caster asked "how come you are so slumping?" and Sea choked for while.... then barely answered that he will improve from now on.
After Sea QQing, casters felt bad so they all spent awhile commenting Sea's good effort to stay focus late game and finally winning.
Canata moving up, loses a tank and I think a wraith or two Baby's third is up and mining fully now Supply counts are even Mines are done for Canata, moving vultures around the map Going to scout them out Four vultures get a few scvs at the 3rd of Baby Baby's rax falls to teh wraiths 6 fact for Canata, 5 fact for Baby
Dropship gets spotted Four vultures out in the main of Baby Plaint some mines and land behind the control tower, making it pretty hard to kill Dropship dies Canata pushes into Baby's tank line Spreading his troops out around the high ground, Canata's troops Is that a medic? From Baby? The fuck am I watching?
Baby going to push into Canata's tank line now All of the wraiths are dead it appears, and Baby's forces are very few at the "contain" The reinforcements are coming Lots of vultures harassing Baby's 3rd, loses a few scvs, but I don't think all that many
Canata scans what Baby has and I think he's happy to push into it Canata breaks Baby's position 0-1 for both players Canata going to be going up to 5 base soon, taking 5 main and nat I think Baby has 4, with his "main" 3 and the 11 oclock main Both players still have a nice number of wraiths and a valk from Baby Baby gets two of his wraiths killed off Canata's wraiths pew pew pewing away some of the tanks
Baby drops vultures into 7 nat, plants mines and goes down to 7 main to harass the scvs No mining for a moment because of the vultures Wraiths hitting a large number for Canata Baby, where is your goddamned AA?
I'm getting so frustrated watching this game >< Baby trying to run vultures into the 7 nat again, doesn't really work 0-2 for Baby His air force consists of 3 valks and 3 wraiths, against Canata's superior airforce Canata, pushing up the left side of the map, not taking alot of damage, but somehow he's 30 supply down
Canata's huge air fleet, pew pew pewing everything Huge valk shots, weaken all of the wraiths severely Golaiths are in the back of the mineral line, but the scvs are all clicked away on the gas Bay adds 3 ports, total of 4 now Another attempted drop by Baby at the 7, gets a few scvs, 5-6 Canata taking a 6th base at the 7 oclock third Split map Wraiths are still going at the tanks Where is your airforce Baby?
Baby gets his wraiths crapped on by the sheer number of valks Canata has Vultures coming to harass again at the 7 Cloaked wraiths snipe a valk and two wraiths, Baby's cloaked wriaths Supply is so even 175-175
that engagement didn't go well for canata and all of a sudden his midmap force is decimated - looked like he tried a surround but baby's wraiths came in and now baby is back up in supply
0-3 for both players Baby needs the wraiths that can pew pew pew the tanks like Canata had Canata's ground army is streaming towards Baby's center position Looks like Cnaata lost alot of supply somewhere, so did Baby
How does Canata see the high ground? scans right I can't see them at all 157-159 Canata going to try and break Baby's small position again Tanks of the high ground destroy most of the tanks Baby has a crap ton of wraiths Enough to take head on a few goliaths 120-150 Canata-Baby Baby trying to set up around Canata's main expos

it's a big deal now
Hmm. I saw a lot of Terran's getting like one wraith before (2010) and always wondered why that didn't become more important. I guess so did smarter people.
Baby should really be using those wraiths like that Kills off three turrets, and gets a few tanks for free 130-180 Canata-Baby Baby harassing the 7 main with wraiths and vultures Canata pushes with everything he has, but Baby's tanks and wraiths are too much
I must say that Baby played that out so patiently holy shit, I thought he was going to lose but then he suddenly had a large enough wraith count and sweeped across the battlefield easily.
One of the worst parts of the new PL format: The deciding game will have the worst players if it goes to 5, because all the best players will go early, when it's guaranteed they'll come up.

He was doing well pushing and gaining ground, but he got overconfident and thought that after he cut off babies bases from reinforcements he could just a-move on 10 oclock. Lost a lot of units needlessly and then BaBy took the offensive and did the same (only correctly).
That was a tough game to get my head around. Every time I thought Canata was pulling ahead and making great plays, Baby would always recover any supply disparity and grab the lead again.

i don't think that's happened all that consistently, though. tonight we had bisu (probably the second most consistent on his team) and baby (probably the second most consistent on his team)

Why?
This match doesn't even fit your hypothesis. Baby is in no way one of the worst players on 8.

Jaedong was the 1st game. -_-
nah that's what i meant, if it was old format. But i do agree it makes for less intense ace matches.

Also during interview, the caster was a bit harsh, saying that he's performance lacking. Saying that "even it was a win, the performance was poor" And then caster asked "how come you are so slumping?" and Sea choked for while.... then barely answered that he will improve from now on.
After Sea QQing, casters felt bad so they all spent awhile commenting Sea's good effort to stay focus late game and finally winning.
thats so sad -.-
Most of the players on Team 8 did well the last season, but now are slumping or mediocre...must be the stress of changing teams or something. Get back to form T8 so you can get a sponsor!
Is ACE now definitively out? T_T Well, I guess it's time to eat hope as usual and bide for the next season. At least it is Team 8 that drove in the final nail.

Things like this just show how good Coach Cho was when CJ was still called GO.
hmmm all in all that was not very impressive from T8, even though I'm happy we took the win. You can't just have a player of Sea's caliber playing that bad. I hope he regains some of his skill... Things could have been very different if FBH got to play for Ace. He's probably benched for doing that ceremony when he won against Zero last time.
