Fair point, though that would have been a long time ago no? So it probably means less to the current meta and pro scene. Also because of Shine's absence, though he has had some games now he is still somewhat of an unknown. He has surprised people thus far, so it could in fact be that he is better than people expect? I think people just assume that because he has other obligations he can't compete, but in fact he would have more wisdom than many players due to his tenure with Brood War.

Kind off topic but did you guys hear one of the commentators talking about some stacked temples on Outsider that you can snipe faster with lurkers and get from the enemy's back or something. Like what the fuck was that bullshit xDD

oh no, Shine screwed up so hard in G1, why push all your units towards the protoss main while corsair have vision? That like "bisu im gonna drop you, you better build some defences" He shouldve just send the corsair away with hydras then drop...

Bisu played D- second game, quallity of play really droped out after the end of progame era.
Runing corsairs over hydras, no bother to pull out corsairs that are targeted by hydras, wasting units everywhere. I mean come on i do better with corsairs than this :D
Bisu looks crushed after game 2 i guess this series is done.

Game 3. Did Bisu just go afk at random moments?

Game 4. Bisu couldve gotten significant advantage if not won the game, if just pulled back 2 of his zealots to the side, after the rush finished, since he have enough to hold his ramp. How can he be so uncreative with such a common stuff. If he run pass the sunken, after lings go to his main with the 2 zealots, drones are out of the main.

Seems like Bisu was not here today, its like Shine has some dark power that negates Bisu multitasking skill.

And have really to say Shine outshines everybody in this tournament so far, brilliant performance and execution overall.

Regarding Bisu afk moment, did anyone see him fall asleep during shine's pregame interview. He looked out of it. My wife believes he was hung over lol. Obviously being sick or hung over aren't valid excuses, but he certainly looked off from start to finish. Shine sure has done a number on him.


I believe someone else has already posted this. Bisu was apparently 'sick' on the day of the game. Doesn't excuse his poor performance, but I'm sure it would've affected his play to some degree.

Yes, he said he went to outdoor for relax&fresh air at midnight, after long time pvz exercise. Unfortunately he caught a bit cold (roughly translated according to his interview before match).


Damn that explains it.

I wonder how the games would turn out if he was feeling well.

Everyone I was watching with caught that, we were all like "wtf is this kid talking about?" and "Is he high?" LOL
"Why is Artosis letting him keep talking about it?"

But he was cut off by Shine's lurks finishing and moving up for the bust and subsequent win so it's all good.

He should play 10 games a day on Icc for a few months. Like. How hard is it to micro a scouting probe vs one zergling? Rapid hyped that like Bisu did godly things when it's stuff I can do as a D/D+. They should have discussed what it meant that Shine let him scout to be able to drone up, what he could do with a strong economy. Instead we get 1 minute of bullshit hype. If he doesnt know then don't try too hard just say what's going on, let artosis do the expert role.

You only manage to keep a probe alive at the D/D+ level. Any higher level player will destroy your probe in a matter of moments.

Keeping a probe alive at the top level IS very hard to do, as is trying to destroy it. Stop trying to equate your experiences with those at the top level! This happens way too much in these threads.

Of course that does not mean I disagree with your point. I don't watch the English casts any more, and that would be one of the reasons.

Oh, Bisu was sick? I looked at the video where he was having his eyes closed during the pre-game interviews and I can understand him losing the series due to not being so sharp. Besides, Shine's play was really clean. Oh well, I hope Bisu gets physically better for the 3rd/4th place match against Soulkey and shows better games.
Enjoy the game

He has also been casting SSL Classic with Neo Medusa. Pretty major misspeaking nonetheless, but it was only somewhat out of the blue, and not totally random.

Okay, I'm only playing at C level but I rarely lose the probe unless the zerg player brings back 4 to 6 lings. Dodging two is not that difficult unless the zerg is VERY good at controlling his lings. Or of course has speed.

Even at pro level the truly good protosses, namely Bisu, are excellent at keeping the probe alive. There is no doubt that keeping a probe alive against more than a couple lings is very difficult, but it is something that can be achieved at any level of play.

This isn't a balance post, it's actually the opposite. This is the please stop whining post.


It has to be said though, when was the last P who would comfortably win in PvZ BO5's? It's not so much one-off games. It's difficult to have a consistent style against Z, and its difficult to have a 'bag o builds' because Z has a variety of tricks especially in a BO5 - in my opinion that's a major difference in tournament play.

Last notable BO5 I remember a P winning (excluding a few years post-kespa) was Jangbi vs great. Top tier Z don't lose against P in series play, it's been so long since that was the case. After Bisu you got Movie and Shuttle - that's the top vZ lineup. Now list Zerg's good against P...

This isn't a balance whine however that's just the nature of the game although i do think it's unfortuate.

I think if you lose your scout to anything less than 3 lings without speed something is very wrong, its not that hard to do tbh

Well that is fair enough, i'm afraid i've not followed BW as closely post-kespa. You have to admit though, mostly Z is favoured - imo there is just less threatening top zergs in the 'new BW'. Watching the games is frustrating even knowing that minor mistakes will cost the game for P, to me personally at least. Z throws in a hydra bust, a lurker drop, ling runby etc. and there is no equivalent (check out Movies terrible 1gateway proxy earlier this ASL).

Here is the VOD of Best vs hero. After you see it, you might begin to think that protoss is incredibly favored in pvz. Best's storms completely destroyed the zerg army. The zerg had no answer against Best's attacks. Minor mistakes cost the game for Z because each of Best's storm easily took out 5-6 hydras.

Hydra bust and overlord drops only seem broken because Shine is doing them. Shine's builds are optimized to kill an opponent in the early to mid game. If his timing attack had failed, his economy would collapse (ie: Game 1). If Hydra bust and overlord drops are really so broken, you would see it in every single zvp.

The saddest part about all this is that Bisu vs FlaSh would have been competitive, but now FlaSh is just going to roll through Shine. Hopefully, Shine can prove me wrong, though.
Ontological imperative holds that my losses occurred only in imagination.

Why didn't Best just steamroll Hero in that video, after he defended against the 3 hatch hydra bust? I thought 3 hatch hydra bust was sort of all-in to where your economy is shot, but Hero manages to stay in the game.
