Light is 5-4 vs Larva for Feb sponmatches. given its FS i would see Light edge this.

stork PvZ is improving, 45% winrate with 69 games played this month. should easily beat a low profile pro like Miso

free has 62% PvP winrate this month. but his competitive games hasn't bode any confidence, looking undecisive in his 0-3 loss to Rain..

^ I don't think it starts for another hour, i.e. 3am PST.

Which totally sucks. The usual 2am start times are already nearly killin' me.

I think Larva is very underestimated. I have been watching a lot of his stream recently and I think he is one of the best zergs in late game now - if he survives early and middle game then he can go toe to toe even with Flash. So in my opinion Larva is going to take the match.

Overall I predict team Stork to win this one but it may be very close

I just want to say that I love the inclusion of the 2v2 Hunters. I was a big hunters player and love to see it played on a high level. Pros like playing it too by looking at their streams.

larva on stream = very good with sometimes god like games
larva in offline setting = very often choking so hard that he looks like D-

well it will be hard to copy effort who managed 0-2 in 20 minutes from yesterday, but it should be close

i was really hoping he would be able to fix his choking ability sometime over the last years, but it rather got worse over the years (tournaments getting bigger each year)

also, very very high chance miso will 3 hatch hydra because he probably thinks he cant take stork head on and blue storm is blue storm

It was flash we're talking about. You could throw Jaedong in that situation and if he lost 0-2, I don't think you'd call it a choke. FlaSh is just too good especially on Fighting Spirit and Circuit Breakers for TvZ

I don't think +1 5 rax is Light's strong suit (just to be certain, I formed this opinion from watching his stream as well). If I remember correctly he lost or was at least put behind in the game he tried it vs Larva in Hosic S2; I recall a pathetic marine count at one point. I personally want to see his mech play just to make a statement again, but that's more likely on Circuit Breaker.

Larva is currently 6:15 to Flash and 4:19 to Last this month = very good on stream

Team Best probably has the best chance against Team Flash with hero & co. out of the way, unless all of Bisu, sSak and Tyson prove to be on point as well.

Never say never I mean yesterday we saw Team Flash only winning after being brought to the Ace Match by basically 1 player. And if Team hero would have sent out ZerO they maybe would have been KO'd by him. BeSt is not worse than ZerO and Light can definitely win against Rain/Last in a Bo1. And 2v2 is a gamble anyways So let's wait and see.
And in the opposite direction: Team BeSt first needs to win today

Larva played well, but well.. zvt is hard when you have to deal with a competent terran.

Light did better with Mech than Flash did, whereas Flash would be content with splitting the map and inviting the Zerg to broodling Tanks to death, Light actually went on the offensive and pressure the Zerg's lack of ground units

Larva should never allow mech king to survive and must kill him before raxes start floating. Light becomes immortal when he gets his mech composition versus zerg.

on a serious note if you play at a decent lvl u know how terrible was larvas position taking the close third,and wasting the resources in guardians and that big lurker army wasted in mines and vultures.at some point it was 5 vs 5 but already too late,u cant really trade in zvt this way,this is one of the reasons FS is a bad map,no enough resources to deal with mech.(specially that you are already bad trading against mnm.)

Stork WTF, thought he gonna crush Miso. He lost 3 games in a row vs. JD early game similar to this. His early game needs serious fix.

Well, at some point in his professional experience a protoss has to learn that it's not acceptable to unblock his entrance in such a situation. I know, most of the players don't learn this stuff even though there are countless games lost like that. But
then again, there's nobody to blame for it.

They should know that they are not "ahead" in such a situation.

Even if losing team wins on Hunters I don't think Free can take down Best because his macro is out of control. But don't count him off, this can go to ace.

Not only is BeSt's macro out of control but free is probably in his current form one of the worst players in this league

Edit: Huh Free vs Flash record surprises me. Because every 'official game' free played in the last months looked like shit

Scouted two times, lost 2 probes, made 3 cannons, blocked his cannons like whole minute with 4-5 probes wasting mining time and in the end stil lost. Yeah Miso deserved that well.

They should know that they are not "ahead" in such a situation.

You're not ahead if you sit around hugging your cannons all day while your opponent builds drones, either.

If leaving probes in front of your cannons longer is such a winning strategy why doesn't it win in practice or on the ladder so much that everyone just does it?

Because it's not. There's pros and cons. Stork's choice didn't pay off, but that doesn't make it some stupid idea and he needs to learn his lesson.

it doesnt change the picture,that was a single day score,if i didnt see it i will not believe,so after watching this kind of result i can believe free can take down best,i mean before miso vs stork started if anyone did ask me if Miso could win i will send him an ambulance.

Lol with the ladder comparison to justify a strat

Stork could leave 5 probes hugging the cannons for the entire game and still be insanely ahead

I know that sounds good, but it actually doesn't really follow.

Your weak opponent 'cheating' out a huge economy while you double dot your I's and triple cross your T's at home is just as cheesy and good as cheating out a win with a ling all-in.

if you ever play PvZ seeing that many speedlings at that particular timing is already a big warning sign. even if he stops lings and only made drones he wont be a lot ahead even if you put 5 probes out defending your cannon.

Idk why in the mid game Free didn't kill Light. He had the dragoon force to breka through sunkens and without units to support sunkens, they just melt to a well upgraded protoss force. After that, he can just try to run through Miso, which he would have since he didnt need to worry about scourge and muta sniping his observers. Bah, a nice effort from Free but he definitely had a better chance.

He must be afraid from backstab or think there are more units there. Free fcked up at start when he lost like 10 zealots to pure drone drill.

after the storm drops and realizing he gets lurker contained, best just needed to take the free mineral only because miso could never attack him and light was still dead at that point. then he would have actually been on a 2 base economy while not needing to spread his army so far.

at some point i did see 4 drones from light in the middle,im curious why he didnt try to take a new base in the other side of the contain.im sure instead of that many sunks he could make 2 hatcheries and macro up quickly,but by the result doesnt matter.

Free did so many stupid mistakes. At one point, where light had 4-5 drones, but no anti-air, all free needed to do was build one scout to complete shut light down. Or not throw 12 zealots away to kill nothing while Where was killing larva.

I bet Larva wishes he spent the Guardian money on ultras. Miso really likes zerglings... Man, that 2v2 was so fun to watch!

Very very glad they brought back 2v2, one of the best games in a long time.

It's amazing how much damage 3-5 mutas can do when you don't have to control anything else.

Free could have done many things to win that 2v2. Maelstrom and dweb (if he kept his original sair count) would have been good as well. He should have definitelty tried building 1 scout. Even if that wouldn't have killed Light, it could still have killed drones/sunkens to make it a great investment (as he already had a stargate anyway this wouldn't require extra tech).

I really like how Light and Best treated Miso post games. Great hyungs.

Great 2v2 game but some really weird decisions by Free and Light. Free had like 10 chances to kill Light but gave him all the time to drone and build sunkens. And Light had 4 drones in the middle of the map, couldn't he just build a hatchery elsewhere and get his econ up?

I don't think neither dweb or maelstorm would have been that good vs hydra+lurk. The biggest problem for Free was his multitask. Casting dwebs and maelstorms would have not made it any easier.

The game could have gone differently if Light wouldn't have kept sniping all those observers with his scourges and mutas. If Free would have just kept his corsairs alive, observers would have most likely stayed alive as well.

Dweb could help him push into Light's base without significant damage and finally forgot about scourges or mutalisks but after losing 3 corsair to hydras it didn't seem proper investment. I guess, free's biggest problem was Miso's nice storm dodging. free lost a lot of time and apm without significant results, while zergs push economy and techs.

I find it very strange, that Miso didn't make nydus to Light's base (for both offensive/defensive reasons) and Light invested a few thousand minerals into offensive sunkens, when he easily can get back to normal play and even take some bases in down part of the map.

So, the was probably quite bad from both sides, but this is exactly the reason, why it was so fun to watch.

I don't know how well DWeb would have worked. It's super expensive in both money and time. You gotta make a Fleet Beacon to research it. Also, free lost all his Corsairs, so he would have had to make a bunch of those again and wait for the energy. It's not like free had a ton of money - he never had more than 2 mining bases at any time.

As for the Nydus to Light's main, that couldn't hurt since it's not too expensive, but it's not like Light's main was ever seriously threatened. Offensively a Nydus wouldn't have mattered much - it's not like Miso had any trouble being right outside free's expo whenever he wanted to be.

Another small note - Lurkers hurt allied units, so you can't just blindly use a bunch of Lurkers to defend an ally's base. Though in this game it still would have been effective.

2v2 is great, I dunno why we ever got rid of it. Having 1 in a 5 or 7 match set is so goooood.

I think that was the best 2v2 I've ever seen. None of the games in the KeSPA era was that good. Hope it wasn't a fluke and we get more like that as the tournament continues.
