Hero almost certainly advances 1st. He has been looking like a top 3 zerg lately.

Then I have to imagine Effort does enough to advance unless the underdogs come up with some big upsets

Setting it to low decreases bandwidth requirement and will actual make it stream constant without buffering

I'm on low on iOS app working nicely.
(the app auto-detected to low)

But I do think the stream latency is very geography dependent (ie CDN dependent)
(I think many users here for whom Afreeca quality is poor reside in Europe, so their infrastructure contracts there haven't been prioritized)

I think ssinz could have won that if he hadn't split his army.

Good call that was exactly the move

Ssinz also took a pretty bad fight with just goons vs a ton of hydra; maybe he felt like he had to to keep his forward army from getting pinched but he could have avoided the situation with 1 shuttle to ferry reavers

Agree, he got to Effort's doorstep and stopped the march. Should've tried to crash through but got spooked by the backstab and gave Effort the time he needed. Needed a shuttle to reinforce with extra reavers.

No shuttle is no bueno against nimble zerg midgame army. effort's movement killed him and even if ss1nz was aware (he had vision with sairs up to a certain point) he couldn't do much except crawl painfully slowly

You need to see the game from proleague when two players betted on their opponents and none wanted to win the game.

I think he was way ahead and started doing very weird stuff during the game, reaver dmg, six reavers is overkill on two bases, the 12 goon vs 36 hydra fight, reluctance to attack on the brink of winning the game under effort's natural.

Strange game.

It almost worked. He lost 2 reavers twice when he really shouldn't had because he didn't protect his reavers properly. He would had smashed through the natural if he didn't lose those reavers carelessly.

ah yeah it would have worked out too, I think a lack of experience or confidence showed in the game, especially when he doubled back with the dragoons, he knew he was all in, had no reason to try and save his natural, would have smashed through the zerg natural faster if he had his full force.

Agreed it was strange and disagree with the last poster that sinz had no chance in a regular game.

This isn't the same Effort that won an ASL vs flash (and effort is one of my favorite players btw)

Sinz was way ahead, he got 2 drone kills with the first zealot and got his nexus before forge with zero losses or delay. He was in a great position and effort's economy was looking pretty bad. Sinz didn't even have to go for a macro game, he could have just ran a standard 2 base 8 gate zealot/goon timing and likely won

Effort has been suprisingly good in sponsored zvzs. His wristproblem shows so much with muta vs muta... Hopefully he can regain form...

that was insightful hearing that HerO focused more on "condition prep" and resting more than last minute game play prep or strategy. Kind of taking the last day before a big exam off so that you're mentally/physically fresh!

Effort's ling micro and multitasking was just amazing that game. Lings running by, harrassing and killing probes, run past the zealots again, killing cannons.

ss1nz chose a wrong opening in the last game, by going gate-nex-forge. Very demanding for multitasking, a quality that was visibly below his opponent.

From the perspective of an up and comer facing a top tier opponent, is it better to play the more difficult to execute but optimal build that gives the best chance at victory and lose in a somewhat embarrassing fashion, or to play the safer, perhaps suboptimal build and lose in a more respectable but “never actually really had a chance to win” way?

Also good job with the casting, Scan's contribution is very insightful and Nyoken doesnt lag behind at all so it was very smooth to listen to.

Tbh the way the matches looked didn't do justice to hero's and effort's mastery of the game.

Hero's read and quick decision in g2 was really, really good. He had no way to scout what was in barracks' base, he knew there was an early factory because of the vulture, but not the exact build (there may be subtle differences because of different timings for the vulture that I'm not aware of, I guess). He proceeded to read that the rax at the front wasn't producing anything and there wasn't a pack of marines behind the wall as far as he could tell with the lings, so he hit a great timing with the lurkers.

And effort's decision making, ling micro and multitasking in g5 were spot on. He utilized every positional advantage ss1nz gave him.

I'm a bit salty that I missed all games but hero vs barracks, which was quite underwhelming. <.<

Was I just incredibly unlucky or was there more downtime than gameplay?

Barrax was very unlucky, it was pity to watch him how he slowly died to toss reinforcements at early game on decider. hero played superb, looking forward him to deliver. EffOrt looked steady, at first game I almost though he gonna lose when he butchered so many hydras but remembered that toss is still on 2 bases. Not bad performance by Ss1nz, I would say really good showing for an amateur.

Feeling bad for Ss1nz. He had such a cool build for BW and he was very close to steam-rolling Effort. I feel like he would have won if it hadn't been cross but close positions. Effort handled that perfectly though.

The rest of the group went as expected though.

It was a 2 player map.

I was hoping Ss1nz would win with his ludicrous seeming slow reaver walk across the map. It was close, but not to be.

Hey, so I just caught up watching this Group A through the English vods from Tastosis. But why there is such a big time delay between the live games and the english vod cast? I don't really mind, I check the vods at my leisure, but it must be hard for Tastosis not to get spoilered, no?

no idea honestly, it popped up on my youtube and I thought this is next round group selection ceremony. Anyway there is another english cast (a nice one) on small vods thread so no need to wait for tastosis

they told somewhere that they do not receive the "VODS" to cast the games earlier. At the beginning it even was - "we start after the Round of 24" so it seems they now receive them a little quicker which is nice.
