Couple of cool semis coming up!

Two Protoss through is good I guess.

also agreed that these kind of Zealot-heavy timing attacks are like the one time that P actually looks a little OP against Zerg (obviously it doesn't always work out like that...)

Yeah, it's about anti-dodging against hydras, Bisu is particularly good at pursuing and targeting the right hydras I think.

Yeah, I can feel the pain of Zergs during that 10-13th min power spike of Protoss when they have that kind of a death ball army and you can't be sure whether they'll hit the natural or the 3rd to put your defence.

It seems like the benefits from that sneaky 4th base of Larva didn't kick in yet for him though. Bisu probably hit the only timing for him.

Larva is really out of game shape guys, don't put too much on this series. Bisu though, will be far superior against Soma compared to Best.

Bisu just has insane feel for this match-up. Did you notice how he built a cannon in main just as we was going to do an out of position attack on the natural? Knew that that was Larva's only comeback. He just knows, doesn't guess, plays aggressive. Knows the right way to play against Z.

I have him favorite against Soma. Although it's still a PvZ and no one is immune to the bullshit in that match-up but if the vast majority of the games are normal his 6-sair/zealot push constant pressure style is a hard counter to the bait and switch Soma dreams about at night.

Gonna be a fun series.

Bisu with no mapple defense practice looks strong this is why he is my favorite Protoss player. Just not die against Soma all ins, and then win this ASL man, if Jaedong cant do it this season

I think Bisu didn't know about the 4th until fairly late. He had a zealot looking for a drone going down, but it never came. And the corsair never went that far South. He was probably going to expand and hang back, but when he saw the base he realised that he had to attack. Just taking his mineral only would've left him too far behind.

Bisu continuing to show off his best form in years. It's really amazing how much changing his setup has improved his abilities.

The true test lies in SoMa, the currently best performing zerg online and offline. Can Bisu best the best zerg vs protoss of the modern era?

My relation of hate/love towards Bisu is still going strong, after all these years. His micro/multitasking is off the chart, always been. Its very impressive to see a confident Bisu toying with his opponents at the pro scene.

vs soma ? I think today's Bisu would win in 6.
vs SnOw though ? Multitasking wont save him in a PvsP, even if he bring his A-game, it won't do.

SnOw's first title is in soma's hands, me think.

yeah Larva just needed 1 more minute for the eco to fully kick in, Bisu really struck at the perfect timing

quote by the korean casters is that "Bisu was born solely to punish Zergs"

Fullscreen Bisu is different.

But to be serious, I think fullscreen probably helps him more in PvT which we can't really see this ASL. His PvZ... he's always expected to beat Queen, BTS, and Larva anyway.

This is why zergs are all inning so hard early game to either get ahead or outright kill protoss. It gets really hard for zerg to snowball into solid macro game onwards from 11 min and forward on these maps.
