Hero for once showed his online ZvT form in offline environment. Wonder why he picked Monty Hall if he didn't have a specific build for it. Terrans own this map.

So what would be the zerg counter to 3 port, assuming it's not scouted, which it can't really be?


IMO the main issue was that Hero made scourge as soon as his spire finished, and they got microed to death. He popped those scourge because he didn’t have the minerals for mutas, which happened because he had to make and cancel buildings to save drones, plus moving drones around to try and keep them alive.

These typical 2hatch muta builds with a third hatch around ~4:30 usually work so that you have ~500 minerals when the spire finishes, assuming nothing major happens before then. edit: on closer inspection, he did a 2,5 hatch build but the 3. hatch was delayed by ~30 seconds for some reason.

To answer your question, Zerg has to play conservatively until it’s ruled out that something like the 3port build is incoming.

You can get burrow pre-emptively so it’s ready shortly after the first wraiths hit, which lets you save your drones; if the wraiths never come, you can just cancel burrow. Or, you could delay your third hatch to make sure you have the minerals to pop 6 mutas when the spire finishes.

What a series from Sharp. That was awesome.

Ro4 not so easy to predict though. I was impressed by Sharp preparation, i think we could see him go against Soulkey. That would be a fun matchup.

Sharp ended up as ASL1 finalist and lost against Protoss and that is going to happen again in S(oop)SL1

Sharp > Hero
Sharp > Rain
Sharp < Snow

At least that is what i'm hoping for...


So he lost to Shuttle plays back then and now will lose to shuttle plays?

Best ro4 we could’ve hoped for. All races represented, no prospect of a TvT or ZvZ final, and SK going for a three peat.

Honestly I’d much rather have TvT than PvP.

Loved Sharp's play this set, I'm so glad! I think Rain vs Sharp is gonna be so good. SK vs Snow will be good as well, but I feel like Rain - Sharp is going to go wild.

Think it's fair to say this was the best Ro8 match?

Overall, this season has been fairly low-key outside of Speed's surprising performance. Some disappointing results from my ro16 hopefuls including Mini and Jaedong, and then Light ate his own socks.

As much as I love SoulKey and think he's heavily favored against everyone, I'd love to see Sharp take it all. Not even a huge Sharpie fan, just think it'd be hype. And SoulKey get's a silver.

Something tells me that if Sharp were to win, he'd subsequently fade into the mist like Larva did.

We've already had mediocre TvT's several times in the last few finals I'll pass on the potential Light vs Sharp or Rush thanks.

Nice game, shows why we need more island maps. Three-port wraith.


Yea we need more maps where one race gets to do interesting and surprising stuff while the other gets handicapped.


I agree watching Zerg lose is pretty fun

Sigh, I picked Rush and Hero to advance. My BW LB win is slipping away. I was number 1 for so long.

The matches have generally been fast. Speed had matches that went on longer and he was able to show off :p.

also we got 3 of last season's semi finalists back in the semi finals. I think thats a first?

Not quite a first, but not in a while.

ASL11: Mini, Larva, herO, Queen
ASL12: Mini, Rush, herO, Queen

ASL9: Light, Queen, Soma, Flash

We had two TvT finals recently, and one of them really didn't deliver.
