According to my head, ZerO will roll EffOrt's face like dough.
Jaehoon's PvT should be good unless PianO's own streak in TvP comes into effect.
|
|
PianO massing up the vultures, no tanks yet.
|
|
|
Impressive vultures/mines play.
PianO with the early 3rd, Jaehoon's behind in expo timing

Terranbreak Ridge game 2, show us the way of the Terran, PianO
|
Powerful FD push incoming, I guess PianO doesn't want this game to drag on to late game on this map

lol both sides loses everything but Vultures are coming now!

+1 already started for PianO. Jaehoon going to take his third on the back of speed shuttle play. PianO with 4 gols though.
|
Loving these 1 armory builds, 2 base Reavers into Arbiters for Jaehoon
|
destruction on both sides again
|
Japan11286 Posts
PianO pushes.
Arbiter is out so Jaehoon engages.
Vultures are out of position. Zeals smash into tanks. Lots of goon goo.
Goons pull back but zeals still attacking. LOL Jaehoon forgot the reaver.
Reaver cleans up what remains.

Some sketchy decisions but still clearly ahead

PianO's TvP has come a long way, this is very impressive play.

Reaver dying to mines forces the GG

My stream froze with scary JD face on screen o.O
|
|
Jaehoon was very unlucky with those mines when he lost his nexus. But his engagement on Piano's next push was literally suicide. He just ran his dragoons headfirst into a minefield. Please jaehoon pull yourself together.

PianO being a little too ballsy against a 2 gate, Early port is always nice to see.

Nice anticipation from the bermuda.
Now Jaehoon destroys the little terran line near the bridge.

Push break clinic from Jaehoon
And Piano taps
|
What build is jaehoon doing? I can only watch piano's stream since most of snipealot has gone nada on us
|
he has scouted two gate..
|
interest forward bunker placement, but no SCVs to repair it.
|
looks like same from jaehoon as in last game
|
2 base DT drop into 2 base arbiters, sigh.

a dirty carrier switch away from the arbiter tech.
|
piano with better economy, but no vessels. It all depends on jahoons usage of his arbiter from now on

Did I miss anything major? PianO with 3 bases but only 3 facts??

Wasn't that always the case during his career? At least from what I remember.
|
Japan11286 Posts
Is his corsair control really that bad? I thought it was his decision making that's bad in PvZ.
You're right about the mechanics. Even during Kespa times, he showed he has multitask almost at par with Bisu in one game. He needs to be more consistent imo.
|
Why would you push without vessels against arbiter/carriers? I think Piano should have kept it defensive and build turrets and waited for the vessels.

|
Casters talking something about Season 2? Season 2 confirmed?
Game 1 starting EffOrt yellow, ZerO red
|
Let's go EffOrt crush him! NooooooW
|
12 pool from ZerO vs 9 pool from EffOrt.
ZerO did hold off a 9 pool vs hero but that was crossed spawn on Jade. Why go 12 hatch on 2 player map?
|
lol pulls drones then transfers them to the natural mineral line
new ZvZ meta?

When he scanned the switch he gave a big sigh like he already given up (bad attitude) and started building goliaths. Why dont terrans try to deal with carriers in a new way instead of doing the same thing over and over again? It seems to me that everytime protoss goes carrier terran end up dying.

effort with the 12 pool.

Maybe you can try the player's streams it's in FPV
EffOrt ZerO

nice zerg/scourge timing from effort,
ZerO still has gas advantage and muta count rising, no spores for EffOrt

game 3 same colors effort with the 12 hatch zero with the reverse scouting pattern, it pays off.

|
Zero ahead in the air, EffOrt ahead on the ling count
|
lol
this is starting to look like a repeat of last game.
|
And EffOrt makes Zero look like a scrub in muta micro and WIN!

If zerg wins KSL that's when I'll say zerg domination. Imo, they haven't proven anything against the top TvZers in the land.

Man and I thought Zero's zvz was the only thing keeping him above Effort right now.

I dunno about that. EffOrt in pro days had the second best ZvP aside from you know who. You don't lose that kind of ability and understanding, and nothing I've seen in his stream play indicates anything other than being very, very good at ZvP. I'd love to know EffOrt's tourney game results in ZvP since say, 6 months ago till now, but the TLPD database seems very thin.
No way EffOrt has only played 10 ZvP's...though he does have 10 wins.

I really do think though for Zero its not even mus that is his weakness but its probably nerves. Hes just too inconsistent and is missing that 1% that makes a champion which is a shame because I really do like him as a player.

Thanks to spotimes for making this possible, but next time i really hope they focus more on getting an observer that really knows what hes doing instead of just being a "pretty face". The observing in this tournament is sorely lacking. I understand its difficult to talk and observe at the same time but if hes struggling this much they need to get another person to observe. There's so many times where hes missing very important action while simply sitting there staring at absolutely nothing.
Not that they will ever see this or care what I have to say but still

^^Yea, noticed this too. The stretched out 16 : 9 resolution also drove me nuts.
The best vantage point, observer or no observer, is watching the player's live stream. All the suspense and always on top of the action. Thank goodness for Afreeca
