Upcoming events is right.
Banned for saying "zerg players are by far the biggest whiners in sc2 history" despite the fact that this forum is full of such posts about Terrans. Foreigner Elitists in control!

I'm predicting Best and Sacsri to go through. I don't think Best will have to much trouble in this group.

Brain: Best and Mong
Heart: Best and Sacsri

I've been watching Zelot's stream a bit lately and I would be surprised to see him get out over Sacsri/Mong

Curious to what cheese or all in Zelot will pull vs Best. Hopefully something creative.

Barely watched any Sc2 progames

When you continue to have more exposure to offline matches you become more likely to get out of a group.
I don't think that's a very outlandish concept

Also if you want to bring Sponmatches into it, Zelot's rank is only slightly higher but his win percentage is massively higher, what does that suggest to you?

yeah that exposure sure helped sascri when he crashed out of ro24 0-2 last asl. and if talking purely about bw offline experience i actually think zelot has more of that than sascri

the very fact that an expro elo rating is similar-ish to an amateur should ring alarm bells about said expro supposed quality and competitiveness.

err..?

I said the more he qualifies for offline events the more likely he will get a better placing
and you counter with 'well he didn't qualify last time!'

I mean it's a non-issue let's just watch the games I guess

na, you said "more exposure to offline matches" which is vague. i was thinking you are going for his sc2 accumulated experience as well. won a dreamhack and all must have good mentality yo!

Zelot basically just did a cheese that was doomed to fail on the map he chose to do it on.
If the toss had early expanded it might have worked out but on this map? doesn't make much sense.

Yeah, two of the drops did quite a lot of damage. I think not lifting his command center also made a big difference.

This is the most uninformed comment ever. He was playing against a defensive two-ate. He could have made a handful of lings and droned into a free third/natural and teched into anything he wanted.

First drop did 0 damage, the only ones that mattered were the mid game drops at the third and natural. But he did nothing to capitalize off of them. He killed a dozen plus drones and a few lings, but lost 40 supply to do it. And he ate more plagues than an African country during Ebola season

so now we are talking about defensive 2 gates and a third expo.the only reason it was defensive is cuz best scouted his build.the second zelot stops making lings to take a third its over.

Something I'll never get is why Zerg don't build a spore + sunken in the main. Saves them so much trouble later on.

that is two drones that could've been mining

besides most of them think they can hold DT attacks considering they already have free detection and by that point should've ling/hydra

dt attacks don't always happen so why waste two drones everygame

^ that's what i imagine they are thinking anyways

That is a bullshit excuse, unless you are Effort/JD/SK etc. with godlike awareness, spending that 2 drones + minerals is almost always worth it. Even more so when your opponent opened DTs.

The thing is they think they can hold it. Maybe after 123981928312 ladder games/practice matches there will be times they got DT rushed and held it with just what they have without building defense buildings.

It's part of the risk/reward thing. You wanna stay ahead then you'd have to play like how effort/jd/sk does by cutting corners unless you wanna have a mediocre economic setup while the enemy has a better economic setup.

You don't become like the best without playing similar to the best. So every lead counts and they'd be willing to risk it and learn how to defend without sunkens than having to build them.

Best is one of the favorites imo. there are several players with fairly equal chances depending on luck, draft and who has a good day: Best, Snow, Rain, Sharp, Last, Effort, SK and Larva. These 8 in the 1/8 finals is the dream, regardless of the match ups

Remember the Danjing tournament when Best beat Flash. So anything is possible with Best. A lot of people replied in this thread that Best was not going to advance.

Yup, on par with the Marine King career ending rush and the early 00's games with spacesuits.

Zelot made a dumb mistake trying to allin a zealot rampnand sheild battery. I understand that he played a opening that was only meant to create a ling all in but he could have switched to hydra when he saw it wouldn’t work

I'm glad ZeLoT did better in his second game at least. Maybe a better engage with his Hydras and focus firing. But still a better showing then the suicide ling attack.

Not only ZeLoT made so poor allin one time strategy, he after seeing that BeSt had SB stil continued stubbornly attacking up ramp and giving lings free, WTF! These amateurs fall apart so fast, they only know do-or-die strats. Imagine if there was JD, SK or Larva. I'm not saying they could win after such BO loss but still they could try so many different things, try to transition.

Also ZeLot's hydra control vs. Mong sucked balls, he literally was A moving, he almost got it.

Sad to see Mong is out, I noticed he has the worst SCV scouting control, loses his workers in less than minut, he's way out of shape, he used to be beast on SoSPA era. Goodbye Afreecan FlaSh!

I mean ZeLoT was obviously very nervous. It's not fair to judge his skill level too much from this group. Clearly he isn't someone you necessarily expect to make ASL 8 but if he does I think we will see much less panic. He would have beat Mong there if he wasn't playing in ASL but was instead playing ladder from his house.
Banned for saying "zerg players are by far the biggest whiners in sc2 history" despite the fact that this forum is full of such posts about Terrans. Foreigner Elitists in control!
