I wonder what the next game will be like...
it did work- I think that july (and most players) would be willing to do almost anything if it works and leads to a win. You would say that about the boxer//yellow series as well

I can't believe my eyes. July up with 2:0 after 2 great rushes. This is incredible, please don't choke next 3 games.

On the topic of offensive worker drills.
Pretty sure it's allowed, but gas stacking is not.

what about PLAYING TO YOUR STRENGTHS???

He knew how many units Best had.
yes, because of the overlord. even thou he died he scouted the stargate, so its impossible to build stargate and pump units from one base right ?

Oh and Bisu's face. Hahhahahaha.
how was it ballsy?
build lots of lings, hide them, drill drones
there is absolutely no way for protoss to defend
so how exactly is that ballsy?

You missed the point... it's retarded to say July wouldn't win a long drawn out game.
why retarded? i also think july cant win a long drawn out game.. so because i express my opinion, i am a retard..
great thinking there, and i didnt miss the point..

It's the fucking OSL FINALS!!!!!! motherfucking fat zerg has got 2 fucking medals on his chest!!!
A win is a win! regardless...
And the way he is winning is fucking exciting as hell...
Okay, stop humiliating yourself. I never once said what July was doing made his win a lesser event or something like that, so take some reading comprehension and read my posts on the subject. My point is Best is the one that didn't see this coming, this is Best's failing and he damn well should have expected this. There is nothing that annoys me more when Best is aware he has great macromanagement and the long game is his Forte for him to get stupidly greedy or not expect July to switch to his trademark mutas ASAP after a low eco 5pool play.
Particularly given now it's happened to him in two PvZ Bo5s in a row.
edit. The 2:0 to aggressive builds/countering his own builds, that is.

There's no reason why that shouldn't be allowed...I just don't think it is used often simply 'cause it's a bitch to get your workers all the way to their choke to drill it.
only "bug" drills arent allowed.

Okay readed the LR and i suppose that Best was always greedy and July is rushing to his ass.

somehow it recollect the epic boxer vs yellow final with 3(?) bunker rushes :D

July should just type the following to Best before the next game:
ABANDON ALL HOPE YE WHO FACE TUSHIN!
And then he should go into detail about the 9 Plains of Hell that Best will experience in the next game

Erm, so playing intelligently and to his strengths is lame?
|
Infested amen. This is going smooth. My predictions where that BeSt won game 1 and 2 if everything was normal. But July has taken this in his own hands and 'took' both games by a more offensive approch. Which is what july is known for afaik.
This is good and solid play. I dont say it is brilliant.. these games are just well prepared.
|
i'd bet alot of money that july wouldnt have drone drilled if he wasnt up 1-0
being up 1-0 lets you take a gamble to try and get the stranglehold 2-0
