No cast by BisuDagger or FlashFTW today. BD is doing other things and FlashFTW had some responsibilities to take care. | ||

However Hero's army of cracklings, hydras and lurks ward off the heavy goon army Speedlots arrive a little late to buffer for the goons, Protoss must retreat! | ||

Lazy taps out! Although defeated, a non-disappointing debut for the rookie Protoss. | ||

Once they stopped explaining every damn unit, their casting has improved a lot. The only SC2 reference that game was that zergs don't have queens (well they have another kind but you see what I mean). Their first casts were too focused on explaining basic stuff and comparing BW to SC2. | ||

rofl wtf rain had a good strategy but those mines... and lack of ground units :/ think going 1oclock expo was too greedy, should have focused on ground units while going carriers... | ||

Zerg was all turtle and dropping all over the map, it became scrappy at the end, aah, it was great to watch. It's not a good game because it takes 40min for one player to win. They just both played really bad and made tons of mistakes. | ||

Nothing wrong with Rain, mostly just the maps I'd say. Rain didn't perform too well.. I think he went for the fourth too quickly. He already invested heavily on making carriers from three stargates. If he'd delayed the fourth a bit and invested less on cannons and dt's, he should have been able to defend that push. I don't think it was the map that made him lose. On the game vs hero he lost his reavers without using them well, he also lacked high templars and didnt do good job on harrassing. I'm not saying he had good maps for his match ups, but he definetly could have performed better. On April 18 2017 21:44 Zariel wrote: Speaking of 'bad' maps, remember Monty Hall?

However super glad hero made it out. I want him to win ASL 3 badly. Disappointed that it had to come down to him or rain tho as rain is my favorite protoss player. | ||

When a map is favored towards one race I tend to focus on that being the reason they lost rather than any mistakes the player made during the game. | ||

Its obviously imbalanced in favor of zerg. Camelot also looks like a great map for terran against either race, so Im hoping theyll introduce a protoss favored map for later rounds, but I doubt it lol. We should lobby for Desperado to make a return. | ||

I called Bisu and Jaehoon pretty confidently, but just as I start to recoup my losses Group D hits me. It was a toss-up for me between Rain/herO/sSak and therefore much harder to call, but based on his performance on stream lately I went with Rain. I was not expecting sSak to go beast mode. Really good play by him today. Happy that herO made it through, but I'm also disappointed that it happened off of Rain not playing well on Outsider. One of these days a Protoss player besides Bisu will do Sair/Reaver correctly and promptly break a good Zerg player on that map, but it was not this day. | ||

Idk maybe they're afraid of all-ins or something but they put themselves in losing position from the start every time It was a really bizarre build, imo. I guess the difficulty of that map is that Zerg can do mutas, drops, or lurkers, so Protoss has a hard time finding the right tech path to deal with it. I personally like the suggestion by Tasteless to go one-base reaver and at the very least force the Zerg player into making a ton of defense early on while the jumpstarting your tech tree. | ||
