Something I've noticed in Savior's last to TvZ wins (Iris and Hwasin). His odds of winning seem to be directly proportionate to the amount of damage he does with his muta harass. All the games where the Terran blocked his mutas well, he lost. | ||

Savior is looking strong, but he's proven in his last to TvZ b05's that he's not invincible. I'm gonna say that it's about 50:50, him vs. NaDa.

All the games where the Terran blocked his mutas well, he lost. haha well i think its safe to say that when a zerg does a successful or very successful muta harass in their games (good examples would be yellow[arnc] vs iloveoov on hitchhiker, savior vs midas on hitchhiker, many many julyzerg trademark muta harass games) it sets back the terran and also gives enough time for zerg to expand around the map or depending on the zerg player's style safely build up lots of units and set off to finish up the rest of the game. when the muta harass doesnt deal enough damage or doesnt keep terran in base it just... imho, set back the zerg a bit and gives terran higher chance to win. osmething like that.. :| hope i dont get jacked -.- a lol | ||

OH MY FUCKING GOD... Never, ever, I'll say anything bad about Iris. He does have 50% training wins vs savior, I do believe it now. | ||

1. Iris dropping at 7' expo with 2 dropships... FULL OF FUCKING SCVS... You can hear the fans screaming before the drop, and when they saw what was in it, everyone goes WTF? and start laughing and groaning... One of BEST spontaneous moments in SC I've ever seen... 2. Savior's 4 hydras and 2 scourge intercept and obliterate THREE full dropships in one of the biggest turning points in the game 3. All those heart-stopping Science Vessel hunts... Savior plaguing 6-7 stacked sci vessels TWICE... 10 scourges perfectly cloned and destroying 6 sci vessels... 4. Iris' force of ~26 marines and medics and firebats inside of Savior's base while his zerg forces are scattered in little groups all over trying to regroup and counterattack... 5. Freshly made SKTerran balls marching all over the map every 2 minutes, looking unstoppable each time but somehow being picked apart bit by bit... What an incredible game... This was just a cut above anything else I've seen recently... | ||

The man is broken, no one expected him to do so well. But at least now we know his TvZ potential, his timing vs savior was incredible. But then again, practicing against him time after time again, there is bound to be a pattern to recollect from. He played like a souped-up sync, and that's hard to come by. | ||

Honestly, I'm sure in his head, he thought 100% he won. I'm sure for an instant, he had flashes of him taking down Nada in TvT and becoming an OSL champ. Also, Iris has a long long starleague history. He's always been top 10, seriously, always top 10... but he never made it this far before... and he finally does. I can't help but feel pain for Iris... at least he put up a heroic fight vs his teammate aka Progaming SuperVillianBoss. | ||

Than I saw game 5 That was THE best vod I have ever seen. Savior could have typed gg quite a few times.. Iris played great. At some point savior desperately consumed mass DRONES for swarm with 2 lings inside  there where so many brilliant things in this game. it was mad and it somehow worked... This man is a genius and I admire him. He also looked like a good person when he went to comfort Iris in the end. I just hope he doesn't hurt his eyes too much.Seeing him fighting and not giving up no matter what's the situation, "creating" the victory even when it seems unachievable was really inspiring for me not just for SC.. This is the first time I was really moved by a SC match | ||

Every terran has moments where you've seen them lose units you thought they shouldn't have. No starleaguer is bleh. Not even mumyung. | ||

not bleh to everyone else or even bleh to other progamers. but ya iris' overall unit control is solid, small scale mmf micro could be improved though. if he had made those small drops/mm harasses do a small bit more damage (which was possible) in the 5th game he woulda won. | ||
