fix yo. I'm thinking 3-2 ktf fox takes first two.
Same but im hoping wemade pulls it through i really like mind, but i really hate and don't understand the absence of Nada. Noway he is playing poorly he just went fairly deep in a starleague.
Hey man you relise that Fox is worse than Estro?, their the worst team in proleauge
Roro < 815 Mind < Stats Nal_Keke < Luxury If it gets to game four Pure < Flash
Lets have a look here, 2 ZvZ's. The KTF zergs are luxury and 815, the fox zergs are Roro and Keke, the KTF zergs outclass the fox zergs by a mile Stats and Flash are playing PvT and TvP respectivly so they have peen practising together and with flash being a greater terran than mind Stats will be prepared But im expecting either stats or 815 to lose a game, which means we get to see the rape TvP that is flash (free anyone?). Flash will take this so KTF 3-0 or 3-1

Roro's ZvZ is rape. Roro>815 Uhh, Jaedong was good at ZvP with no one to practice with. Mind>Stats Luxury's ZvZ is more rape. Keke<Luxury Flash is rape. Pure<Flash Flash, once again, is rape, Roro<Flash or Keke<Flash since Flash's weakest MU is TvZ and Luxury isn't so good at ZvZ to overcome severe BO disadvantages.

Fox should just send out their best player and hope for the best, even if it means Nada against Flash's TvT.

Yeah but the reason they keep saying this is because his TvT and PvT is up at 65%

Dude, worst doesn't mean bad. Look at Jaedong, you don't want to send anybody against Jaedong, but if you had all three races of equal skill you'd send a Terran even though he's 62% at the MU 'cause that's his worst MU. And oh, Flash's recent TvZ's have not looked good. Take a look at your own link.

WeMade is not worse than estro and damn sure not the worse team in proleague *cough ace* (forgivemeiloveyouboxercasyandanytime), but like estro they are not living up to their potential. Practice partners are nothing to base predictions on imo, Mind is going to own Stats. Roro's zvz is SEX and 815 while i admit i really like him has just been slumping hardcore.

That is exactly what I think. Flash looks rather invulnerable in TvT, his TvP is aslo really strong while his TvZ looks vulnerable these days.
Also I was just guessing. Of curse if the match goes to ace there are other factors that matter, like performance on that particular date of each player.

Sort of, but Mind obviously fucked around with him mentally with the harasses, and Stats just didn't cope with it well. When pressured, even the best players make mistakes, much less a new guy.
Well, if Wemade wants a chance, I think Keke is their best shot of forcing Ace. Pure vs Flash is going to be ugly.

Wow, luxury performing badly here. Looks like KTF is back to being a "one-man team" again.
Man, if only Flash were on a deep team like Khan, he'd be able to rip apart the starleagues since he doesn't have to practice for both his own match and Ace for every matchup.

The risks far outweigh the benefits that could arise from that expansion, I mean he didn't even see keke attempt an expo of his own, and that's pretty much the only condition you should expo the same to mirror your opponent, or go all-in from there.
Unless there's an experienced zerg user that can tell me otherwise, I really can't see why lux would've done that. He has superior muta control, was up 2-0 vs keke in previous records, why'd he do something that risky?
Maybe its just a lack of confidence thing more than anything..Meh.

Because it is nal_keke. but keke showed him who's boss.
Because Luxury is in a slump, and for some reason KTF thinks its a brilliant idea to advise their players to go for the greediest builds possible when they are sucking.

Well, I said Khan because that's the team I root for, of course, it doesn't really matter the team. It's more about Flash no longer being "the ultimate weapon" because he has to deal with being the only great player on a team with no help and still must win. I mean, the kid's still in high school. He needs some breaks.

i dont know jackshit about ZvZ but i know that expoing is very dangerous, espacially in neo requiem. 9-10 games are 1 base tech plays so yea i dunno wth he was thinking.

This seems so true, haha.
'Hey, Flash gets away with it most of the time. You can too!'
Pure looks like GoodFriend, and 815s eyebrows > Nal_kekes.
2 hatch main is the only answer ZvZ on Requiem unless crossmapped, but even then it's risky. 3rd hatch should be on natural, but its also possible to place that one in main too. Luxury should know better. but his confidence is low now so he probably wanted a "easy win" playing like that.
Siege into expands for Flash. He is walling his natural with barracs and ebay. Pure takes his second at 5. Flash with armory almost done adding now turrets everywhere

SICK
Luxury's zvp is bad compared to other top zergs and protosses, it is in and of itself, not terrible. His zvz and zvt are fantastic. LUXURY at the moment is not fantastic, his match ups have not changed, he is simply under performing. So this is not sick, its extremely worrisome. Luxury, and KTF's mental state, hangs on a fuckin thread.
So basically KTF is thinking that Wemade will send out a zerg, and used Luxury to counter. Only to find out that they got psyched out. Mind's TvZ is his best MU. KTF is going to regrets its decision, IMO.

Well, Mind has always been *kinda* inconsistent. His tvz has also improved a fair bit in the last few months, though its still weaker than his tvp, where he has fantastic timing. Though it might be better than his tvt, I haven't seen a lot of his tvt lately, so I cant say.
ok 1+ for mutas.... he might do the guardian rush i love watching lol midn getting fact and starport with armory.... valks.... forced 2 lift his ebay HOLY SHIT MUTAS RAPING MINDS NAT

If they sit on 2rax with no tech for that long, and don't even make an attempt at being agressive, maybe. Spreading small groups of marines amongst a few turrets at min lines hasn't worked since before Blue Storm even.
Great series, glad to see Luxury redeem himself there. I still think 815 has huge potential to be a high-level Z, but he's always underperforming. Maybe with more appearances in the KTF lineup he can start to shine again.
2 hat Mutas seems more common these days , the terran either has to rush for SV or valkyrie or mech . Maybe thats why shit loads of terrans are doing mech builds more often .
Edit : having both Mind and Luxury in my fantasy PL team seems to be paying off .
i love how muta control has such a wide range of effectiveness, like in the hands of some players its just horrible, but luxury can just win with it despite a bad opening
also, unlucky flash owners see their 90% ace guy not get chosen, and since luxury won he probably will be selected more often in the future

I dont think any flash fans [me being one of them] are upset with this. We want the team to do well. Flash is a more well rounded ace. However, Luxury is extremely capable of pulling it out as well. Besides, Flash has always been overworked in KTF, this gives Flash the chance to focus on individual leagues, and Luxury the chance to repair his slightly bruised confidence.
minds tvz does not suck, it is very good 2 hat muta can make any terran look newbie if they arent 100% prepared for the first wave. if they find a hole before youve had the time to get up 6 turrets per base it all spirals out of control.
Stats looked pretty good in his game versus Mind. Yeah, he made a bunch of dumb mistakes and lost so many probes to vulture attacks, but there's definitely promise there. Loved the hallucinated recall.

also, unlucky flash owners see their 90% ace guy not get chosen, and since luxury won he probably will be selected more often in the future
I dont think any flash fans [me being one of them] are upset with this. We want the team to do well. Flash is a more well rounded ace. However, Luxury is extremely capable of pulling it out as well. Besides, Flash has always been overworked in KTF, this gives Flash the chance to focus on individual leagues, and Luxury the chance to repair his slightly bruised confidence.
i was excited that they didnt send out flash actually. they are working flash to teh teech basically. sending out another ace (other than hery) gives more guys chances to step up and show wht they have. luxury pulled through and im happy as hell. lets c how the do vs. estro

now? 2 hat muta has been around for a few seasons and is the main reason everyones been experimenting with mech and wraith/vult and other unusual builds.

It's just that I'm a Mind fan and I hate watching him lose :\

Yeah, I have both of them, so as long as they win I'm cool. KTF goes to ACE matches so often though they both seem like a good investment.
I wonder if Stats will remember to make enough cannons in his next PvT match, PROBABLY NOT! Other than that, Stats vs Mind was probably one of the best PvT matches of the year for sure.
Is it that people hate terrans or just like saying dumb stuff like Mind and Flash suck at TvZ..or atleast claiming theyll lose when its their "weak match up"...I wonder.. But yea that Stats cannon thing reminded me of Dazeang vs Fantasy where daz was winning and lost because he refused to make cannns to guard his probes.
Woohoo! It's been awhile since Yellow Arnc where all-in muta wins a game. I love Luxury's patience where he saved the badly damaged mutas for an all-out attack at the end.

Last PL Season, zergs got absolutely raped by always 3Hatching, the harass never did any damage.

If Mind's TvZ sucks then Flash's TvZ is somewhere near the bottom . Mind has a nice understanding of the TvZ MU he may not have the best MM micro in the Pro scene but his games sence in this MU is one of the best . I mean look at his game vs Calm an andromeda and his other recent TvZ games + the ones vs GGplay in Gom. I like watching his TvZ then some half assed mech build or something like Flash's TvZ where he just 14 CC's and makes tons of marines and loses them doing almost nothing vs 1 swarm ...

that was not last season, what the hell?
jaedong, kwanro, and lux (and others like 815 and haran) have been doing this 2hatch/super aggressive shit for more than 2 seasons

savior raped flash (and then fucked it up) with 2 hatch muta back in the gom invitational. 2 hat muta is not a new thing.

I know, I'm saying it wasn't used as much last season. Terrans did 1Rax FE all the time or even 14CC without worrying about it. Now, 2Hatch is being used way for often, which leads me to my original post saying now Terrans won't be 1Rax FE as much.

I really doubt this, if mind got even 1 more turret ready at each base he would've done so much better, he just cut it too close.
I don't really see a trend here, it's still a risky strategy for zerg. To be honest the only one I know who pulls this off regularly is Luxury anyway.

"by always 3 hatching" 2 hat muta has been a threat since blue storm was made, and terrans have been aware of it and looking for unorthodox counter builds ever since. 1 rax fe is just fine vs it and terrans will continue to use it. not really sure what your point is unless a consistant counter build is found.
14 cc is fine vs 2 hatch muta btw, you can afford to go overboard on turrets and get really fast +1 weapon and then just roll them.
I just watched the games and one thing kept bugging me. In the ace match, did Mind forget to make valks? There was a period of about 20 seconds where his armory was done and had one of the starports ready with its control tower attached. He only started making his first valk once Lux's mutas went backdoor and raped him. Could have been a supply mistake, but that's unlikely. Anyone noticed it?
