Game 5 was just amazing. Oov shows cheater terran at its finest.
Anytime (P) vs Reach (P) on New Peaks of Baekdu Jaedong (Z) vs Chojja (Z) on Arcadia II Dongrae (T) / Shinhwa (Z) vs GoodFriend (T) / Yellow (Z) on Vampire ForGG_V_ (T) vs Hery[Hyo] (T) on Arkanoid
KTF MagicN's 3:1 Lecaf Oz
Recommended game from this series is definitely game 1. The Mudang Protoss returns.
This lineup or a similar one (using nal_rA twice, or something) should be very strong... But they insist on Aqua and Hery and Zergbong all those people who lose proleague games T-T T-T

Kingdom opened up a *huge* lead with reavers but had piss poor endgame performance, un-necessarily running goons up ramp once and terrible macro. Eventually finished Iris off though.
I disagree. He was able to expand and keep the Terran pressured through out the game. When IriS tried his last offensive attack, he completely raped it with reaver/shuttle usage.

Kingdom had 2 whole reavers that did minimal damage. That alone is enough to even many advantages toss can sieze from early reavers. OLD SCHOOL!
xellos slowly pushing for main...unseiging now and pushing forward\ 5 Drop ships unloading right inside main beside the factories...most killed by midas, but inflicting alot of dmg on him
Midas throws monitor at the crowd member...girls screams in horror but hide their face from the camera while doing it xellos with his lack of emotion looks just as angry :p
Oh heres that gay commerical with the friggin animals.....still have no idea what those have to do with pro gaming...or proleague results Edit: Profiling Nal_keke and his porn star mustache...and how hes getting pzowned by savior
Man, watching this live is so awesome... This is truely a spectator sport... Except I'm 1/2 a world away and there's no water cooler conversation the next day at work... =(
oooo big suspense....can gorush end saviors annihilation of everyone except his close family? will he end the zerg's reign of terror.....yeah probably not..... 3:1 ftw :p

I think the classic DT/vulture combo with stormdrop could just about clinch this one for GoRush.
At least ZvZ mirror matches end quickly... Rather watch them than the dreaded PvP (If I wanted to watch units stand still and hit at each other for 2 minutes, I'd be playing Warcraft III...)
Well, they opened from virtually identical builds.
SaviOr droned a bit harder for a second or so faster spire.
Gorush got more lings, won initial ling battle.
SaviOr's micro was better in air, but Gorush demonstrated very good game management by sending a larvae's worth of lings every once in awhile that killed at least 2/3 drones each time... that just killed savior. Then it didn't matter how many muts gorush lost to scourge, he had so many that he just all in for the win.
~midas puts down the monitor hes been throwing around after loosing~ CJ surrounded by mounds of food and like 6 bottles of what looks like hot sauce honestly lol theres a jar of fucking pickles on the table
On November 25 2006 23:27 zdd wrote: it looked like savior was using alot of his larva for scourge instead of mutas because he always had less mutas, even after killing a ton of gorush's
He had fewer drones ever since GoRush started ling harass. That first ling battle was decisive, but since it's Savior, it took another 10 min to finish the game...
It's good to know Savior CAN still lose.
Personally, I'd like an Oov-Savior ace, but the way it's been, old-school would be cool too.
shit man who hasnt beaten reach, for some reason alot of the people that have been following progaming for more than a few years really adore him but from all ive seen of him has been him loosing
edit: and i see very little of him in both vods and liquibet

QUE BIG SHINY BUBBLES AND PIRATES OF THE Carribean Music!
shuttle out at robo fac....5 goons blocking racks from scouting further...7 bikes pushing through towards main minging as they go....much walling with 3 pylons
much seraaching for way into main...2nd ref coming up bout 12 goons and a few zeals groupping....2 reavers dropped at south of base almost killed by 8 bikes and couple tanks
tanks pushing forard (10)...all sieged...goons attacking...all tanks dead...this is almost game i think....OH SHIT! most of the goons got raped by mines/tank.....zeals pushing thourhg now
hmm i think oovs secret is only to attack with about half of your army. notice he always falls back on something hence can come back from situations that normally would spell out GG for any other terran
tanks going for the expo...zeals rushing but tanks pull back while firing....stormed!!! bikes push in and tank goes siege ....oov gains a little ground...closer to the expo now with mines all outside it
goliath attacking arbiter...stasis on 3 tanks all outside the expo.....hahah oov has barrack scouting at noth of main that muhc hasn't seen or doesn't car bout.....oov pushing for the expo
People see an undefeded expansion, and send 5 control groups of units to kill it. Much did that at oovs mineral only, and his whole army got stuck on an island, and then the army died trying to come down a ramp. It serves him right for using a wrecking ball to kill a birdhouse.
Much's Min only is being hit by steady slow tanks (2) And oov finds Much's cliff expo @ bottom. and harasses with 2 vultures. Arby cloaks probes to prevent harm but Oov scans and gets a few more probes ^^
ok much pushing up into all the tanks...under the cloack of arbiter.....almost killed by a turret lol.....like 3 hp left....5 tanks stasised but kill almost all goons
second pet peeve, protoss players that stasis the first row of tanks, blocking their army from the second row of tanks and ruining a perfectly good attack.
much trying to push into the main....hes got 2 arbiters that are almost dead ...they stasis goliates....3 temps and 4 goons in main now attacking factories
God, it is frustrating watching Oov not get a counter to arbiters... still.
Now Oov's cliff expo is being hit on top and nice storms rape many many SCVS. But now Oov counters Much's expansions and takes out his newly made min only.
And could very well be on his way to hitting the gas expo too. What a nice nice game.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA As soon as about 8 vultures un-stasis with Much's army around it. Oov BOOKS it and snipes a shit ton of probes and a surviving vulture goes and scouts Much's main.
..arbiter mooving towards oovs main being attacked by goliates...it dies!..before he could recall i think.....much pushing for the cliff AGAIN!!!....mines and tanks checking through goons....templar storms some tanks but to no avail
Oov takes it with a big smile on his face...takes a bow....midas puts the monitor down.....much looks like he is have baked and just woke up, go drink a coffee dude
girls scream but cower in fear when camera comes near them....CJ team mates going into the booth to tell much lost over 6000 units due to not paying attention to absolutly anything...skt1 group huddles before peacing out
These commercials are like those in China... The same few just loop over and over and over again... If it doesn't get drilled in your head after the 10th time, nothing will...
Anytime (P) vs Reach (P) on New Peaks of Baekdu Jaedong (Z) vs Chojja (Z) on Arcadia II Dongrae (T) / Shinhwa (Z) vs GoodFriend (T) / Yellow (Z) on Vampire ForGG_V_ (T) vs Hery[Hyo] (T) on Arkanoid Ace Match on Longinus
Mirror matches galore, but at least with interesting players.
Ahahaha Anytime SCHOOLED REACH. In one swift macro push, after scouting Reach's 2nd expo warpign in... Anytime takes his goons and zealots and 1 reaver, and Walks ALL THE WAY DOWN PEAKS in one shot and takes the expo and finishes his 2nd expo. Reach scouts that expo with a probe as a cannon warps and fires 2 shots to end that miserable probes discovery.
Whoa~ Reach flexes his man muscles and pushes all the way back up Peaks with excellant Storms to push Anytime off the plateu. Then instead of hitting the expo, Reach just barges into Anytime's natural.
ANytime's gateway placement fucks with his reinforcements, 8+ goons trapped. He kills a gateway, moves units... they get fucked by a mudang storm. Zeals come out, appears that Anytime WILL defend, at least momentarily.
I'm... I'm so confused as to how that happened. I'm not disappointed--Reach needed to get a win under his belt--but he lost every fight, including the loss of a nexus, until the final one.
I guess it's the power of the Man Toss. You just can't question that combination of X and Y chromosomes.
Yeah Reach had much earlier HTs b/c of Anytime's reavers... They had enough energy and numbers to cover all of Anytime's army... Still, it felt like Anytime should have won that game...

Reach actually got a robo much faster than Anytime, and he only built shuttles and obs out of it >>;;
It did seem like Reach was losing for much of it. But he had really quite excellent storms which won him the game. [He does that a lot.]
Also, he relied on real manly forces like zealots and dragoons, not weird mechanical things >>;; He won in a true protoss fashion ^^
I love Proleague... When you lose, not only do you feel bad, but you have to deal with letting your team down... Good thing they don't give them swords or else they just might commit sepukku...
Yellow and goodfriend exploits dongraes big mistake to not block his entrance with his barrack while he was retreating for the combined force of mutas and goliaths. Dongrae is raped and so is his zerg companions mutas...

Yeah but teams don't want to do that most of the time, because the players'd better practice for only one map.
Actually, white made a push to stop Hery's expo and combo scv and dropship drop obliterated all of white's tanks. Hery also destroyed an expo of white's and is cruising the map with dropships, so he might be able to come back.
White makes a last ditch attempt to stop Hery's expo at 6 and Hery uses scvs and dropships again to demolish white, and white ggs. All I saw was white drop his tanks in a blob next to Hery's tankline and see them all explode.
Sry if this question was mentioned already, but what about YellOw? Isnt he in KTF anymore? I remember reading one of his interviews where he said he will come back and mass train etc. i didnt hear anything form him for a long time
ps.: i dont mean the one yellow[name]..i mean the old school yellow
i fanboy-voted KTF too but i was getting excited about a ra ace game so was disappointed when hery came back
sounds like that was pretty miraculous though. from the live reports... "reach is screwed, anytime has macro advantage, reach loses probes, reach loses nexus... reach wins gg" and same thing with hery basically.

TL.net has a bittorrent tracker for VODs here. The games likely will be uploaded soon, thanks to the generosity of one of the members. If you're looking for a http link, people upload games occasionally in that fashion as well, but I wouldn't count on it. There are a few websites that carry Proleague games for direct download, but the chances of finding a specific match is slim.

Not playing flawlessly doesn't mean playing poorly. Kingdom's never been flawless, when he has several bases and harasses at the same time his macro almost always get sloppy. Nevertheless, when he's on a good day, he absolutely destroys his opponents and shows extremely inspiring play.
Haven't seen this game though, but judging from the live reports, it was a typical flawed brillant Kingdom game.
SKT1 vs CJ was a classic PL match. It was one of the best Proleague matches in a LONG LONG time. KTF vs Lecaf was ok... A lot of comebacks and insanity.
Reading some of these reports was really hilarious. Reach being raped. Reach about to say gg. Anytime's reaver destroys all of reach's probes. Reach busts out, mercilessly crushes Anytime's army, Anytime GGs. <-- WTF?
yellow[name] put him into loser's bracket in the most recent MSL, but that was only a bo1 so i dont know whether you want to consider that a game or a match.
the last series he lost vs a non z was probably vs oov in weg, or whatever chinese tournament. vs spear in offline leagues im pretty sure he won 2-1. id love to know if spear's one win was straight up or some kinda proxy gate though.
EPT
. I'm eager to see if SKT will win or not since they've implemented their new policy.
