Normal not to get any sunks when 2 hatch muta if T doesn't do a pre muta push.

Man, I thought Zero had it but I guess the scourge failled to connect to the valkyries in the opening engagement somehow.

Sunks don't do anything. He can't sunk 3 locations enough. Not sure why he gg'ed though. Did he forget to tech to lurkers?

Flash did a very similiar Valkyre push in game 1 against zero in their MSL finals 9 years ago. This guy is playing some 4D chest, pretty sure zero is suffering from ptsd now.

Well if he hasn't teched lurkers, then the gg makes a lot of sense.....

This made me laugh xD nice one.

Zero might have been scared when the fact units showed up and he was stuck on few mutas and scourge against a well turreted terran? (it was just a vulture but still)

It totally does change the match, from who the hell is queen? have i been ootl for so long? to awh, its zero! In the end we're all watching multi-match spanning narratives of this group of broodwar heroes. All matches become so much better, the more you know about the players.

Agreed. From the 1st match however it doesn't seem to mean much in terms of narrative development. Could've been anyone it was Flash's match. Hopefully Zero wins on Lunar and bounces back

lurkers weren't going to be ready, no way zero could have come back not worth the mental strain, just gg'd out smartly.

at least hes playing the series not the matches individually.

zero left way too early, he badly miscalculated his position

Zero just needed a little bit more to win that first battle solidly. In retrospect, I think if he sac'd his min-only and just run drones away, it would buy enough time to get the numbers he needed. That min-only was not critical at all.

I thought he had a good chance. Clear the marines out and you are still a potential 3 base against 2. I guess Zero thought there was no chance to catch up economically with his tech disadvantage what with the valkayries. Still, there's no real reason to not continue to fight and drag it out.I guess he was defeated in spirit.

wow apparently soma went to medical school according to that short interview with hyunkyung but quit because of his newfound afreeca/progaming career.
