I thought you were great, better than Artosis in terms of modern game knowledge. Don't know if that's saying much, but that's what I thought

did you see Sharp's game-winning mnm production off 3-rax?
insanely high unit count all game
Larva had an extremely low unit count due to mass queen as well as teching to ultralisk fast and guardians. He also threw away tons of units. Sharps army just seemed big in comparison.
I think Free should've kept his army with his expansion until he has cannons and 1-2 HT set up there. He was comfortably ahead so he didn't need to rush to end it. He could've fought a battle of attrition.
Despite all that, he would've still won if he hadn't made all those micro mistakes (Losing his shuttles, getting HT sniped in transition etc.)
btw I love how Tasteless has to explain everything in SC2 terms. Most of it is along the lines of "Unlike SC2, you actually have to play this game."

Effort got dominated and just took advantage of free's stupid mistake to let his expo completely exposed while moving away with his whole army. Also he couldve sniped reinforcements all the game, but he did it only at the end.
Flash said hes going for 3-0 to try to make everyone else in the group 1-2 to force tie-breakers. He sounded genuinely sad that Best lost. But, Mong HAS to win his game to even have a chance for Best. I wanna see bo5 Flash vs Best =(

Effort didn't get dominated... It was a close game all along.

Why though? Remember the last time everyone wished for that and they faced in a Bo5? It wasn't even fun to watch because Best never stood a chance.

Probably not a very popular opinion, but Larva is like the worst top korean zerg.
Right now he maybe. His muta micro has seen better days though.

ok
No offense intended man, it was a serious question. I don't follow the personal streams so I wouldn't know. I was just judging by history and Best's play yesterday.

I wasn't offended. Last time Flash and Best played bo5 was beginning of last month. they played 4 bo5 in a row(wow). Best won 2(3-0 both times) Flash won 2(3-1 both times). I love watching these 2 duking it out. That's all =)

EffOrt ZerO Hero Larva
JD?
That's so few Zergs actually, damn... I'm quite convinced any ex-pro Zerg that played proleague can do better than Larva except for Samsung Khan's JuNi.
Free had the game won if he hadn't wasted that last batch of zealots and templar, I think.
Sharp vs. Larva was a little disappointing: larva never got his unit composition right and losing the mutas early hurt.
Interesting stuff in Mind vs. Zero. Wonder what happens if Mind backs off after the wraiths instead of trying to push in? He had enough to defend the counter, I think.
Fun game to finish up: BeSt should have remaxed zeal-goon, pumping carriers didn't let him use his macro.
