JYJ > TY Bisu > Speed I think Speed will opt for early aggression which is the only thing Bisu does well against in PvT JYJ > Bisu Speed > TY Speed has monstrous TvT this will be decimation Speed > Bisu Speed will play more safely with the tournament on the line and his fundamentals will outshine Bisu who will probably waste his army once or twice then lose during a carrier transition Speed and JYJ advance | ||

Speed played only bgh in May, took a break from mid june to late july, but has been grinding since he came back. But I worry the bgh month plus the break has somewhat hurt his peak performance. Hope I am wrong because I have been rooting for Speed since 2020. Bisu I hope has leveled up with the bw window size change and allegedly the change to a wireless mouse. TY has been grinding a bunch to improve his weakish TvT. hope it pays off for him! | ||

I think Bisu and Speed/Jyj will make it. But if Bisu drops his game vs Speed it’ll be tough for him. Ty seems out of his depth in this group. | ||

Ty seems out of his depth in this group. He won an ASL. Bisu has not. JyJ had a long streak of Ro8s, Bisu did not. Placings in prior ASLs determines the amount of points a player has. Points = Seed. | ||

Well, he just had a b.o. win, executed it well, while his opponent choked. | ||

Not even a choke, just a snowball from BO advantage + minor mind game. Xun tends to oversell things by quite an extreme degree lol. But it does generate some hype even if not always an accurate presentation of the facts. | ||

It's one of those moments when something unexpected happens and you go like "Oh shit I'm screwed. What do I do? What do I do now? I can't think of any. But I must do something. Anything. Just anything" We often talk about how Protoss players make bad decisions in PvT especially in engagements (hello Artosis), but the core of that issue is a lack of vision/information. Here you see that phenomenon manifests with Terran when they opt for a strategy without their maphacks (mines + scan). | ||

Speed's TvT still impressive but his TvP was a little weaker than I thought it'd be. Felt like his 4th/5th facts were super late against Bisu? Will have to watch it back again. | ||

BW such a mechanical game though. Maybe slightly too mechanical, but it's what makes it so gnarly to watch. | ||

If he invests in Siege Mode earlier, he either can't build the Dropship or he has to cut a Siege Tank. Without the former, the game goes into a completely different direction and not one you can say is him just winning. Without the latter, he probably just dies considering how close those holds were. | ||

I think - TY being a pro would never detach random 2 tanks backwards like that straight into dragoon T-bone fire... That had to be a mistake by misclick, not by a decision!

JyJ mega peaked in his ASL winning season in part because he was the meta for that short period of time. in that short period of time he was legitimately the best terran. But he very quickly fell out of that peak and seems unable to regain it. | ||
