That kind of game can happen on any map though. Best was behind after the early game so he got Lurker contained. This time it's not Hydra opening but he still had to build a bunch of Cannons because Action transitioned to Hydra really quick. Well, guess what? Those Cannons ended up doing more harm than good. And combined with the layout of the entrance like a tunnel, it's just impossible to break out of a Lurker contain. I have more issue with game 2 than game 3 really. | ||

You can sim city to make the two entrances become one. The problem is with that sim city your Cannon placement looks like shit in the case of a Hydra bust, and that's how Rain died to Calm. But two-entrance natural is not the issue. Revolver is like that and it's a Protoss favored map in PvZ. Invader is okay for PvZ I think, currently at 49% which is better than the likes of Polypoid. But can anyone explain to me how Best got contained in game 3? His only notable loss in the early game is the 4 zealot poke which died to Mutas. Just that really? After that he had virtually no units to prevent the contain before it started. And it's not like the move out with 4 zealots is a mistake because what else can you do at that state of the game? | ||

All filled with over-achievers that might play more to their level in the elimination rounds and will most likely falter mentally against the opportunistic style of Mini. Hero has looked the best out of everyone but he is the zerg version of Best. Always choking when it matters. PS: I realize Effort fanboys will be triggered but I don't care what anyone says, he is a shadow of the player that won ASL. | ||

Could Best have gone reaver to take down the neutral building at the bottom? | ||

Salty Best threw vs sharp in the first game... But i didnt expect more than one P in the ro8 and it s hard not to be happy for sharp. Mini s bracket is doable though. Top part of the bracket is lit, hard to call | ||

if Sharp survives against Mini's early game shenanigans, he is slightly favored in a longer game according to Sharp, he does OK against Mini's style because Mini does have the tendency to attack into Sharp's bait tactics I remember one proleague game where Sharp was at 100 supply and came back against Mini who was at 200 supply | ||
