So excited for this ASL!! Especially to see Bisu again But with a good mix of rookies and old-schoolers like Firebathero and ForGG it's gonna be awesome.

Been too long without Tastosis too. They're my drugs and I need em D:

Six months between seasons is so long to wait, but i have the feeling this will be good season and I'm looking forward to seeing the games on the new maps, especially inner coven.

So glad to have Bisu back, and that we don't have to wait to see him play. At last, a protoss I can cheer for

Looking forward to Bisu's return, but I'm not convinced he's automatically in the finals just because he's Bisu. Today will be the litmus test to see how good his return form is.

awaiting the barrage of "WHY IS THERE NO CROWD" questions once the broadcast starts

answer: coronvirus has meant that a lot of live broadcasts in korea have opted to proceed without an audience until it has been controlled. this includes the asl.

Blindrawr said this in the other thread:

Has Flash Retired?
No, he took a break after the last ASL and is in fact ready to compete this ASL and is seeded directly into the Ro16

Why is Rain not playing?
no interest, hasn't been playing much BW recently so he decided to give up his seed(from making top 4 last season) which Sharp won, which is why Sharp is in the Ro16 already.

Isn't Soulkey in the military?
Soulkey is on leave due to financial reason

You can't build it where it's supposed to be without detection, so placing it optimally is probably a pretty big delay?

Ah sorry, my question is worded poorly. i mean, which games from the group are played today, or is the full group played?

in previous seasons, they'd go first 2 bo1s then go to next group, but on liquipedia the other groups are scheduled on other days so i was curious.
thanks!

Is basically island map, and we all know how it goes pvz on island map, while on pvt, this carriers strat you can not stop. So for me its stupid map as it force one race to cheese to win ... Ample played the most logical way and was crushed.

i don't see the rationale for the later drop in bottom left of protoss main, the tank drop at top right exploiting the building placement and using mines nicely was good, i believe he could see carriers were out at this point

also invested in cloak for wraiths for a whopping 3 count? some slight modification could swing that game especially if diving on observers with a decent count

Yup. Losers game was the best, and it wasn't that great either.

why would you need to watch 8 shitty games instead of 5?
skill disparity is so high even in ASL Ro16 and esp. KSL Ro16 neraly all Bo3 are stomps anyway

Skip to 1:50:03, did one of the lurkers just disappear after burrowing below the hatchery?

No if u look closely you will see that the marines changes target from hatchery to lurker and kills it as its burrowing, but it looks like the marines are shooting the hatchery.
Put speed on 0.25 and you can see it

Glad we got more tosses out otherwise there are too many terrans already. Surprised that Horangee got out. Ample was shaky but he hold his ground really well vs. Bisu, guy needs to continue improving.

jinu (beast now?) was super nervous

ample could have gone further if he was in any other group

and bisu almost got knocked out here :p but his decision making after sniping that CC in the last game just went full 5Head play and was so aggro with those speed-less zealots and shuttles

great games today, only wish the first game lasted longer and beast actually put up a bit of a fight lol

Lol what are you talking about? At one point he was 5 bases vs 2, he can attack with speed-less zealots all he wants.

after the double drop and more importantly sniping the third cc, he was extremely ahead all game. nothing about that game should make you think "he almost got knocked out" especially after that DT bs vs horangee

Not a huge fan of the Coven map. Willing to give it a few more games to see how it plays out but it essentially looks like another island map for protosses to dominate. ZvT on it should be interesting though.

Yea I thought he was done for, especially when that double shuttle drop really failed to do much at all.
But yea, first 6 goons killing a CC (esp when it looked like Ample could've easily saved the CC if he had just paid attention) and then Ample losing all his tanks definitely helped a lot and made the game go from hard to win to almost impossible to lose in like 1 minute...

is there a reason why ample was so focused on going for that mineral only as opposed to the raised expansion with the gas? wouldn't it have made it easier for a platform for him to push towards bisu's bases?

I guess he wanted to take that base a bit later due to the fact that it has less resources... He was expanding pretty fast, so I guess if he had just hold on to that mineral only he would've taken the other one relatively soon... Just guessing though.

The Beast v Bisu game was interesting. It was tough for beast. Without the threat of a hydra bust it’s too easy for Ps on that map to either double stargate if they see muta or double robo if hydra.

I think he had the right idea t trying to get to quick devourers to take the cairs out of it but clearly underestimated how quickly Bisu would build cairs. Once he had a control group the scourge couldn’t do shit and he had nothing to deal with the reavers. Perhaps a scourge/hydra combo may work better while teching to devs? I dunno. It’s going to be a very hard map for zergs in ZvP.

I disagree that the cc snipe switched the momenthum.
Giving away all your tanks while being on 2 fact did.

The failed drop, and 3 goons for the cc, I think a clutch terran would recognize the situation and, especially on a map like sylphid, add 3-4 facts stop scvs, start an immediate push and rallying vultures down.

Securing that mineral 3rd gives easier access to the 4th.

Getting the closer 3rd is easier but it also runs out faster.

That is what I am saying.
He move dragoon to nat, he expect DT at the right timing. But for some reason, Horang2 make DT not instantly instead let dragoon finish from gateway. Which make DT arrive 5s~ later than expect.
Example is it of a bad play that turn out to be good because is bad. So I say BS DT because is BS dt.... obvious my friend. Maybe try care Brood War attention? It is useful

Dunno who posted the results of polls inside the main thread / 1st post for recommanded games (i guess it's @BLinD-RawR)

But, whoever it is : THANKS A LOT !!

Hope you can keep doing this :-)

Last game was fun and I enjoyed the TvZ even though it felt one-sided after the beginning. To be frank, while it's great that beast made it there, he's not of the same caliber of the other players imo. His first game was bad and while he did well to exploit the positioning of turrets in Ample's main, failing to defend that third cost him the game and got him eliminated. You could chuckle it up to nerves, but even during the SSL era, I don't recall him being considered a top player. Hopefully he returns next ASL with vengeance and wins it all lol.

Now, ample in game 5 openly fantastically and seemed like he could actually beat Bisu, especially when he even sniped the probe going to make the third twice and defended the double shuttle drop well in his main. However, losing the third cc then getting his tank count reset allowed Bisu to take the eco and army lead and the rest was history.
