yup Yarnc > ChoJJa 
1 : 0
|
Yarnc > Chojja with some timing on the initial muta battle and scourge micro before Chojja's exp kicked in.

missed most of the game.
ChoJJa had an early expo at the end, Yamc won the first air battle with 3/4 mutas & a pair of scourge vs 3 mutas and two more that hatched too late. ChoJJa typed out after losing his 2nd set of mutas.
|
How the players selected for this event? I havent read much about it. Do they do it from rankings or something?
|
New game. Chojja vs. Yarnc on 815. Chojja bottom left, Yarnc top left. ZvZ is very interesting on this map with no natural gas.
Yarnc opens 9 ol gas/11 pool
Chojja 12 hatch exp.
Yarnc's build is much better suited for this map in my opinion, Chojja will have a harder time defending 2 places, he can't abuse ling advantage because of narrow ramps, and will be behind in gas.

they used some sort of power ranking afak

Chojja has to spore up, as expected, and Yarnc has air control with his larger number of mutas.
Yarnc catches Chojja's mutas out in the open and attack chases them, killing them. Muta count is like 8 to 1. Chojja is so dead. Both players tearing up each other's mains but it doesn't matter. Yarnc has over a dozen muta and Chojja has like 6. After that battle Yarnc masses enough muta to break the spore defense of Chojja and gg.
2-0 Yarnc.

There are numerous threads and news about it. Look in the top section on your left -_-.
Terrible play from ChoJJa, he had no right playing today with that showing.
|
i still dont get it why did he take the exp?? there's no gas in it... as he had to build 2 spores instead of one... seriously stupid decisions ;(
|
Yes that's about the worst of the standard builds I can imagine in ZvZ on this map. All of the usual advantages are gone and all of the weaknesses remain. Bad bad strategy.

Goodfriend vs. Zergman G1 Arkanoid
Zergman bottom right.
Goodfriend top right.
Goodfriend 14cc vs. Zergman pool first to 3 hatch (2nd at front, 3rd at exp).
Zergman breaking down neutral buildings with those initial 6 or so lings and opening a land path to Goodfriend's base. The threat is mass ling but in reality Zergman whoring a lot of drones. Goodfriend scouts this strategy with an scv.
Goodfriend putting on pressure with initial MM, can't find a target because of the hatch at front with sunks. Zergman takes his 3rd gas base and morphs 9 muta. Zergman puts down a hydra den and goes right for hive tech while harassing, somewhat unsuccessfully with muta.
Zergman's quick defiler forces GF's first push back with darkswarm and plague and he also defends a dual dropship attack on his expansion at 5. Zergman is switching to hydra/lurk/defiler but GF makes enough firebat that darkswarm isn't necessarily good for him.
Zergman tried expanding to 7 but GF dropped it immediately. Zergman doesn't have Savior's defiler control and is getting pummeled at his northern expansion. It's taken down and irradiate hits the rest of Zergman's troops. He's finished.
Zergman holding off far more troops than you'd think possible but the outcome is hardly in doubt. GF eventually masses enough toops in Zergman's main to level it. A few eraser drone raids on 7 and it's GG.

pooor bf trying to play like NaDa

terrible firebat with defence ma3x ... nice move bf

gf individually irradiates all of zergman's drones just to show that he can afford the inefficiency

can we agree that was one of the worst games ever?
|
can we agree that zergman sucks and oddly enough most people think he's underrated?
|
Osaka27162 Posts
WELL HE ISNT ON THE POWER RANKING BECAUSE THAT IS THE OPINION OF ONE (IDIOT) MAN AND HE IS LOSING THE POLL BECAUSE TL.NET PEOPLE ARE RETARDED.

SL Finals have spoiled us too much with good play/hype.
Wait until we get to see the likes of hery and co again come proleague and we'll think of this game as godly.
p.s. yes it sucked dick
|
hahaha i like how goodfriend and zergman are the last ones in the poll oh man
that game was pretty good though, close enough although GF consistently held advantage imo
|
Osaka27162 Posts
Pretty good? The entire game was Zergman rushing to defilers, then atk moving his army into GF without using defilers, and then allowing GF to win despite his HORRIBLE micro. In fact, the only one with worse micro was Zergman.
That was not a "pretty good game" sorry. That was a steaming pile of crap.
|
yeah after watching semi finals and finals of both leagues with such HQ players and games i think this was horrible
|
dunno about chojja vs arnc games tho
|
New game on 815.
Zman top right
GF bottom right.
Zergman 9 ol pool, 2nd hatch ramp (3rd at top left main)
GF 2 rax fac before academy build.
GF not adding on and going right for starport, which makes some sense because a tank push on this map is lol. GF now building his first dropship, Zergman has gone muta of course. Funny dropship micro at Zergman's main vs. scourge as GF is denied entry. GF reroutes the attack to Zergman's expansion at top left main. Muta/scourge nail the dropship so reinforcements can't come and deals with the force without much trouble.
GF made a lot of wraiths and got into an airwar with Zergman and lost most of them. Zergman has left his main undefended and an elevator lift of a couple groups of rines deals a significant amount of damage to Zergman's main.
After that attack is dealt with GF loads up another dropship and sends many wraith back into Zergman's main. The dropship gets scourged but the wraiths destroy every drone in Zergman's main. Zergman is pretty far behind at this point he has his main/nat and the top left main. GF has his main and nat and building another expansion at bottom left.
Zergman's nat get crushed by GF who has been massing marines with the extra minerals after his wraith pump. Zergman making a few desperate hydra/lurk drops but it's over.

omg, survivor league at least gets a roomful of people
|
well it looks like noone is interested in zvsz and bf MU-s
|
bf is in "better" shape than zergman
|
|
|
actually i do not agree with mani that 1st game was that bad... it was ok imho but 2nd... holy shit :D it made me laugh out loud soooo many times ;D
|
is yellow gonna play gf later if gf wins this game?
|
zergman trully loves his drones lool
|
thay both aren't prepared for this matches its obvious
|
you can't irradiate sunkens!
|
yeah man... zergman is playing horribly. goodfriend isn't doing so hot either, but he's still clearly a step ahead.
i miss the savior vs top terrans matches already, sheesh.
|
zergman is taking a beating
|
There were 2 people watching?
And yes these were one of the most terrible games ever played. I think the players just dont care about this thing.
|
nice rine micro there from gf, but zergman sucks
|
very poor control from both
|
bf already got 2 starports maybe we'll see some BC in an hour
|
gg finally. that was horrible
|
nope zergman did what he should did 8-10 minutes ago.... "gg"

Noooo its over
Why couldn't gf continue to park units over the 3 expo, letting them die for no reason - so the game could go on for another 15 minutes. WHY WHY WHY!!
|
Zergman gives up the GG about 15 minutes or so after it was over. What bad games today :/
|
man, i was looking forward to the return of 815 too until that game
so any more games today? yarnc vs goodfriend?
|
so any more games today? yarnc vs goodfriend?[/QUOTE]i hope not... i hope bf never play again too

haha, gf didn't play THAT badly i think.
but seeing yarnc rape him would've been satisfying

holy shit >_< chojja lost so bad at his best mu.
zergman destroyed my minority support. I consider myself one of the lone supporters.. maybe no more.

Blah, boring games. Zergman/GF on Arkanoid was OK after Zergman won a few battles. His early mutas did nothing, and I thought it was over at that point, but Zergman won a few battles and turned it around. His ZvT late game management though, it's just as bad as everyone claims.
