Well to me game 4 was like game 3 with the necessary adjustments. In game 3 Savior stayed at 3 bases very long, waiting for the push that only came after Free had 3 bases of his own. This multi-teching from 2 bases that this protoss style includes does very little pressure before that (in the hands of Free at least). While Bisu makes up for that with tough Corsair/Dt (or pure Corsair speed Zeals) harass, I already felt in game 3 that you could take 1 or 2 extra expansions against Free in that time.

bisu will be raped and savior may even crack a smile


Bisu's win rate vs savior is close to 90% and it'd be ridiculous to expect him to maintain that, but it's even harder to imagine that savior could tip it to his side anytime soon. i think bisu will have a 70%+ chance of winning a bo5 against savior if he has to face him in this MSL. and bisu will always maintain a winning record against savior, similar to iloveoov vs nada and nal_ra vs boxer.

anyway, bisu is well on his way to his own dominance. if he wins this MSL and wins an OSL, along with some key victories over S-class terrans, he'll have proven himself in every way possible. then it'll just be a matter of how long he can keep it up

I agree with Nony. Bisu's PvZ is a completely different story. Both in game 1 and 2 Free made mistakes that Bisu would not. In game 1 Free's did well to protect his ramp from savior's hydralisk rush, but what was his corsair doing? It was at 9 oclock, with 0 kills. Bisu would have micro'd that sair to hunt down ovies while protecting his ramp from the pressure. That would put a dent in Savior's economy, and since he was 2 hatch it would have been worst.

In game 2 Free stopped scouting after the first probe died. Bisu never stops scouting. In GomTV1 Finals Bisu was always aware of savior's moves.

I'm not sayin Savior hasn't evolved. Instead of trying to going head to head and using the same openings he's mixed it up every game. All 4 games he's used a different unit mix, a different theme. Hydra rush, 3 hatch zerglings rush, dbl expo, and mass expo to mass muta style, one we haven't seen in a while.

Unfortunately these are strategies that have a limit. They don't work all the time, and now that Savior's used it on Free he'll have to come up with something different if he wants to take down Bisu.

It was at least kind of strange that Free didn't cast a single storm in the last game. With that many mutalisks from Savior, not to mention the guardians it could've been better than the scattered archons that died as easily as the few corsairs.
Maybe just Savior is regaining form and Free's pvz sucks hard (the second statement is more probable) ...

I don't think Savior is out of his slump. Free's pvz is just sloppy. I really like Free's agressive play style in other mu's though. His PvP is just as good as the current Stork's.

I thought it was BO victories. Gateway first builds dont work vs savior. Why do people do it? Also if you are clearly outclassed (which about 95% of the protoss players are), why dont you do daring BOs?

Well Savior still is very strong player and will probably make it to the final; pure logic says Bisu will smash everyone in the way to third consecutive MSL Neither any of the two terrans can stop Savior or ra or xellos can stop bisu but still it's a game and everything happens.

P.S. I would gladly watch Kwanro vs Savior at the final, haven't seen much of Savior's zvz lately ...

Actually, we have the wonderful TLPD to compair them with, and oh look, Free's PvP is better then storks, and almost as good as bisu's.

Free 57.14% PvZ
Bisu 67.57% PvZ
Stork 50% PvZ

Looks like Stork isn't really out of free's league, eh? and like 10 of free's losses are to savior.

Uh... how in the world can you claim Free's PvP is better than Stork's? Stork's PvP is top notch, and against anyone not named Bisu he'll probably win (and even against Bisu, it's about 50/50). He certainly spanked Free in WCG.

Furthermore, I could argue Stork's weakness against Zerg is somewhat forgivable (especially compared to Free's inconsistency against terrans) given that most zergs not named Savior (and July... but July has been hit or miss lately) suck at the matchup. If Free can't beat Savior either, he's not in much better shape than Stork is.

Free has extremely good pvz. Excluding savior, he is 23-10. Bisu is 22-12 in comparison.

Doesnt matter, savior will win both starleagues regardless.

Then you include Savior and Free looks slightly better than average and Bisu looks godlike. TLPD doesn't include a ton of games Bisu has played against Savior (Race Wars Super Fight, WWI off the top of my head).

why would you exclude savior? he's the most important opponent. free is a top A-class PvZ player and it takes an S-Class zerg like savior to show his weaknesses in PvZ. sloppy is a good description

the only comparison to make between Bisu and Free is that they get similarly good results against A-class and worse opponents, but Bisu continues with those results against S-Class whereas Free does not.

Well it could also just be that Bisu's pvz style works better vs savior than Free's does...
