Bisu stuffed up the first engagement vs the scourge. Can't help but think he should've waited for 11 cairs rather than engaging with 9.

The ling runby, getting far ahead in tech and deciding to go for citadel, making speed zelots but not commiting to them and getting killed by no upgrade lings because three +1 zealots < 20 lings. Getting 10 corsairs and having them shreaded by scourges.

Very indecisive Bisu, Larva played way better. First time I see a protoss who isn't a threat to the zerg, because he doesn't make any units for 12 minutes. Well deserved win for Larva, 200iq timing and attack on nat.

Snow settling into this one nicely now. I think Effort's best option here is a muta switch into templar snipe.

Unfortunately Effort is not fully in shape yet and it was visible from initial lings vs zealots harassment. After that his decision making was good, but he was too much behind.

I don't even think Protoss loses to Zerg anymore with these fast armor builds. Maybe Larva should have got defilers out sooner or defended his lurker fields a bit better but they were even supply and Larva just got absolutely rolled over.

I think the Protoss players are just weaker than the top terran/zerg players in general. When you get a top5 level toss player like Rain or Snow they are dominant.

Looks like Larva is over it and just looking to get out in losers. 9 pool lol

I can say a lot about snow's spotter DT and his ability to keep his corsairs alive for as long as he did, I think 2 were still alive when snow gg'd

too bad can't say the same about his high templars, those mutas were brutal.

Damn wild series, did not think Larva was going to pull that off. Snow got caught absolutely off guard by that brilliant muta switch and lost way too many Templar.

Larva out of the group of death first.

Effort has an absolute gauntlet ahead of him now, I imagine snow still makes it out in losers

Wow that 3rd game was amazing..... I really thought Larva should've been dead after Snow got the 1 o'clock 2 gas base. Think his mutas just denied any HTs from popping out, snow was just not able to use his gas effectively....

Yea he wasn't able to convert the 1 o clock gas into storms effectively because of the mutas

2021 version of Larva is very scary.
The guy has matured, and look extremly solid in all 3 match ups. A first ASL final is very possible

Maybe if half the hydras weren't deep red. Effort made a mistake imo trying to snipe the cannon with his lings rather than keep them with his hydras (which would have sped up his fight with the zealots at his nat, preserves hydra health, and added hp during the bust). When he wasn't able to get on top of the cannon it was over, the probe losses didn't matter

Effort is not even at 50% of his former self. It has been this way ever since he came back.

There's a reason all of these games look like this.

What surprises me is that I thought that someone with so much experience but with lack of practice will show weakness mid and late game where his micro, macro and decision making should start to lack, but executing a building order early should've been straight imo

Effort had a difficult surgery near end of his service. He has stated multiple times during streams feeling uncomfortable with his micro because of his physical condition. It is not suprising he plays like this.

It still feels bad to see Effort in this state. Reminds a lot of Jaedong post ASL 6

It was actually a closer game than it looked. Bisu was actively looking for the elevator but missed it by 1 pixel. Had he found it the game could have gone on for much longer.

So disappointed in effort, his last game against flash before going to army was truely a masterpiece. Sadly with people going to the army the pro scene is actually lowering in skill rather that improving..

he did, 2 sets of 2.

I mean the game was pretty much over the moment it was sniped although even otherwise it would have ended fairly soon.

I saw scan playing games with hero, I'd like to ask him what he thinks of hero's condition. I think hero is a top3-4 zerg right now. I also think group4 might even be a harder group than this one or at least close.

Dam Bisu must be annoyed after throwing big leads in that last game multiple times. Bisu elevatoring 4 goons for no reason when he was breaking out with a reaver anyways and losing them.

GGs, glad Snow made it. But for the life of me I don't know why P players don't place a higher premium on their cairs in PvZ. They micro the shit out of them in the early game only to carelessly lose them in the mid and then die to a muta HT snipe transition every time. Snow should've won game 3 vs Larva.

I personally wonder why protosses never do a dark archon around the time when a possible muta switch may appear. Its such a big hard counter that also works pretty well even if no mutas come

I guess it's a significant gas investment around a time you need your very gas-intensive tech units. I'd argue maelstrom works fairly well vs clumped hydras too, but I'm no P and I have a thing for dark archons, so don't quote me.

Larva played great though, really a nice new approach to the mu... Snow... Hmm I'm not convinced...

Snow did make one. Didn't work too well.

Also, I feel like people are being a little hard on Effort. Dude just got back from the army and made it into the Ro16.

It was hard to watch Bisu get eliminated, but Snow was clearly well prepared for PvB on those maps. Props to Snow for all his games.
