really hope that even if BeSt does not win, he actually shows us some good games

heart says 3-2 BeSt but mind says 3-1 ZerO

let us see what happens.

let's be honest best is going to get smashed to pieces. i don't like this but it's kinda written on the wall. i don't think snow has even recovered from his somaburn

Soma vs Snow was considerably more lopsided than this and I seriously think Soma is THE ZvPer right now. The meta is Zerg-dominated, this goes without question, and I think Zero is the favourite, but this has the potential to be close. Rooting very hard for Best, of course, but if it happens, it will be an upset.

how was soma vs snow more lopsided than this? snow is supposed to be THE pvz and he couldn't hold a candle to soma. best is not exactly known for his pvz. as much as i want best to win, i think this will be another 70 minute asl

Snow had an abysmal score against Soma online and Soma was 13-2 (maps) in ZvP offline. He 3-0'd Snow and Best in KSL4, his second ever premier tournament. ZerO is not that dominant in ZvP and Best isn't faring that poorly in PvZ. So that's why I think Soma vs Snow was more lopsided.

This does not take away the possibility that Best loses 0-3, he has a reputation for choking to maintain, after all.

the ONLY conclusion for 2 late stargate after citadel and then NOT building sairs i can up with is .. some kind of.. "precaution" vs mutalisks BUT I do not think u can even build them fast enough once u see mutas..


So Im a bit confused how Im the only one really scratching his head here.. other talking about contain.. bad cannon rush..

he built 2 stargates and didnt build corsairs.. This is honestly SO WEIRD and bad for a pro that I dont even know what to think and even .. collusion comes to mind at that point.

Can some1 explain to me what happened there. I _really_ dont get it.

from the terrible BO position he was in, he had to gamble on queen seeing the late first sair and assume he was going +1 speedlot all in and build mutas in response.

Going to be another quick 3-0. Better make the next commercial break half an hour long.

We have yet to see a Plasma match get anywhere close to the late game. Usually has one player be greedy with a fast expo while the other rushes, and the person who rushes wins most of the time.

best playing on plasma feels real gimmicky. should have stayed with his strengths and stuck with standard macro play on a normal map

Best lost to the most generic and standard mid game attack that was also scouted. This will usually not work on ladder xD

KCM Race Wars and Ultimate Battle's Plasma games are worth watching. Almost always some interesting games and long macro ones, too.
