Looking forward to see Storky vs Flaaaaash
This series will probably go to ace match
|
Stork > Flash Juni < Tempest FBH > 815 JangBi < Luxury
ACE : Stork < Flash KTF 3-2
edit: hmm... Flash has to play Gom too so Flash will probably not show up for Ace but nevertheless Stork vs Flash for Ace gogo!
|
I can't wait for this. Gogo KHAN! (Except Juni, fuck that guy)

if it goes to Ace FBH will go because he is 3-0 with Flash.
|
I think Jangbi or FBH will be Ace should it come to it(which is fairly likely). Main reason is because Luxury can be sent in to snipe Stork, while both Jangbi and FBH are beasts vT or vZ.
Flash's GOM schedule would really make it hard for him to come back for the ace game. I mean, there are only a couple of hours in between.
|
I dunno why everyone is so sure Luxury will beat Jangbi if we take maps into account as well as players.
Flash, but dont be suprised if stork tries something funny Temptest FBH Jangbi Flash , though khan has fbh and jangbi who can win, stork as well.
|
|
|
Sending luxury to snipe stork? I mean yeah he beat him in WCG, but sending luxury to fight stork is even money at best, and if youre wrong you could end up facing fbh..which is not good, or jangbi which is also even money at best.
|
Game 1: (P)(P)Stork > (T)(T)Flash gonna go out on a limb and say stork will win regardless of map imba Game 2: (Z)(Z)Juni < (P)(P)Tempest tempest will take this.
Game 3: (T)(T)firebathero > (Z)(Z)815 its firebathero, and its tvz... if 815 dosnt get stomped early then he will be nuked/bcd Game 4: (P)(P)JangBi > (Z)(Z)Luxury jangbi, has already taken out the one twin, going to def take out the other
as for ace i think fbh will be sent out and if he is, he will win regardless if flash or luxery are sent out due to his killer tvt and tvp, and if ktf predicts this and intend to snipe him with a toss? who can they send... tempest?lol

In the OSL opening ceremony Luxury was told to choose 3 players he did NOT want to face He wrote the following
Stork Sea Midas
Luxury has a history of choking in front of Stork (like Stork chokes against GGplay) Even his ogn coaches joked around saying "If this is Luxury's group he would probably retire haha"
Ofcourse this was the beginning of Incruit Starleague.
|
I'm thinking FBH vs Flash for ace if the match doesn't last too long (not sure how long it takes for him to get to GOM studio and get set up) but I believe Flash will win that matchup this time around.

Against zergs, you'd have to think that both FBH and Jangbi are better. Against terran, Stork has a slight advantage of Jangbi and FBH, who are both ridiculously good in the MU too. Hence no reason to send out Stork for ace.
Also, as I said, Flash's GOM schedule makes it likely that he'll leave the match right after his game. So Luxury as ace is very possible.
|
KTF slightly favored in the first two games, but fairly heavily disfavored in the next two. Come on guys, pull out a win!

I'm betting that if this match does go to an ace, FBH will go out. KTF doesn't have the depth that Khan has, so sending out a player who could potentially take out both KTF's top aces seems like a safe choice. Jangbi could probably fill this role, too. But hey, I've got fantasy proleague to think about!
And, I don't know, would it be too much of a shocker if Tempest goes out in the ace? How I see it is, Luxury is probably not going to fair too well against any of Stork, Jangbi, or FBH. Flash would essentially be trying to win 4 games in the span of a few hours, though I suppose that doesn't keep KTF from using him all the time anyway.
|
even if they sent out tempest, fbh would still probably beat him

For ace it's going to be a guessing game for both teams.
For instance...
KTF would want to send Flash if they suspected Stork was coming out
Khan would PROBABLY want to send out FBH to fight Flash (Jangbi has a 50/50 chance IMO)
Against FBH ideally KTF would want to send Luxury. I think that FBH's TvT is more likely to snipe Flash than his TvZ sniping Lux (assuming Lux is in form, which he may not be...)
Jangbi has the best chance of beating Flash and Lux so he could be Khan's safest choice. He'll need an early game cheese/risk to beat Flash though... and thr map will help him there.
A funny but unlikely ace would be Stork V Lux . I think ace will be FBH V. Flash though
|
Stork < Flash Juni < Tempest FBH < 815
815 is baller, hes gonna rape fbh up hard
People there is no way that 1. stork will win vs flash and 2. if it gets to ace khan send out stork Hes been mini slumping since the osl finals

Will we have a stream? =(

There is a lot more to pvz than macro, which is why Stork is subpar at it. Jangbi understands the match up, he has good game sense and good multitasking. You don't need to have amazing sair/dt in order to be a great pvz player.

|
i personally think sin chupon reyong favors t over p.
so if it comes down to that matchup i think ktf takes this
|
I think Samsung wins 3-1. Possibly even, dare I say.. 3-0???
|
stork<flash juni<tempest fbh>815 jangbi>luxury
closer: stork<flash
i guarantee that flash is not going to lose to stork... and this lose in this proleague match will put him in a slope and never make it past round of 16 in osl
p.s. if fbh lose to 815 ima just slit my wrist lol...
|
damn worst comes to worst flash might have to play six games today
|
I think 3-1 Samsung is a total possibility. But if KTF steps up they'll take it for sure
|
as soon as i saw this line up i shouted "OH DOO DOO!" I'm excited.
|
|
|
stork vs flash OMGGG
who to cheer for
|
Predicting: Flash > Stork- Flash is too awesome to lose in a macro game on a t map. Tempest > Juni- I don't know who this is, but Tempest just beat Jaedong 815 < Firebathero- TvZ beast when he needs to be Luxury < Jangbi- I think they are about the same level, but I want to see an ace match Flash > Jangbi- Flash abuse
awesome lineups

Jangbi is not great at PvZ, actually, it's more accurate to say that his PvZ is untested. We can't say if he's good at it or not unless he actually beats real players, and his lose to Effort does not help his cause. Don't say effort is on a tear; he was on a tear, but he's inconsistent. Effort didn't play godly in that game either, but he did play great, something that Jangbi has lost to.

FBH should be sent out if it comes to the ace match, since KTF has no Protoss gosu enough to take him on.

noone is gosu enough to take on fbh

Jangbi's pvz is very good, Storks is mediocre.

Edit: Oh, Stork does not have Mediocre PvZ, many of his losses recently came from Jaedong back when he had invicible ZvP. While it may not be as prominent has his other two gosu MUs, it's definitely not mediocre.

Tempest did beat Best, and can beat fbh despite losing to him in the MSL, hes a deceint choice I suppose. But I see no reason not to send flash. Luxury doesnt have an advantage against any one of khans 3 monsters.

Not that I'm complaining, but it's somewhat unusual.

If Flash loses, then I think Samsung will take the match. My prediction:
Stork < Flash Juni < Tempest FBH > 815 Jangbi > Luxury FBH > Luxury

This is my first time being able to stay up to watch a game live because I don't have work in the morning. I usually wait til I get home from work then watch it but I'm pretty excited about seeing Stork vs Flash

Stork vs Flash omigosh!!
I dont know why flash has a gold crown and now a silver crown :x
|
kinda miss 2v2 a bit (most games were boring/the same (like zvz), but there were those odd games that were gold).
although this 1 of each race rule is pretty good

Cool samsung jackets btw :D

Doesn't clockwise allow the Terran to 6 fact/2 fact and push and break the nat really, really easily?

You know, both positions might favor Terran, that my be why Terrans do pretty well on this map.

the evil one is going dt tech, fuck him

flashing getting cc and ebay in his main

Stork's playing Dark Protoss and going DT drop. Flash might or might not have turrets up in time.

lool Stork has templar tech - retro 2gate 2005 style
Flash however is adding his ebay which should be done by the time the CC lands
|
Lol dt's, flash has a ebay up these wont do shit
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
as i said expect stork to try something funny.
|
Flash needs to be careful.... :/. Hopefully he defends. His expo is mining before Storks has started
|
Flash is building an armory.
|
Aotearoa39261 Posts
Turrets going up a Flash's natural
Stork has no sign of an expo yet
Shuttle out, DT drop =[ lame

fuck...I think flash is doing his typical armory build, meaning later acad!!

Oh. I lied.. lol. There one...

first two dt are out for stork, but flash already has his ebay out and his expo up.

lol Flash thought it was a reaver drop
Flash has enough turrest in the right flashs to stop most of the harass.. but Stork is going to rush in very soon with goon/zea/dt to take out the turrest at the natural
Flash has a goliath out

1 tower right place looks like for flash, stork needs to do more damage to make it worthwhile.

Aotearoa39261 Posts
Stork has a hidden expo at 9
SOTRK GOING FOR THE TURRET!!
NICE SCV PULL AND FLASH DEFENDS WITH EASE
STORK WAYYYYYYYYYY BEHIND
|
Flash was not expecting that from Stork. Stork is easily going to get away with the doublle expo, while trying to do a turret run-by snipe.
|
storks mass dt goon rush fails
|
|
|
OOOOOOOMG. Too epic. I thought Flash was done there
|
|
|
FLASH DEFENDS! SUCK IT, AGE OF PROTOSS!
|
United States17042 Posts
awesome awesom scv wall to save that turret. Stork is going to need to keep his double expand. flash getting starport already
|
Oh man that was so stupid by Stork. He is really going to need that fast 3rd running for a long time to catch back up.
|
Yea, Flash definitely thought it was a reaver. A very uncharacteristic display of Dark protoss from Stork.
|
Aotearoa39261 Posts
Stork is in major trouble, okay my bad Stork has his natural now but still he is a way behind after that failed drop
Flash using his trademark flash build against Stork haha
|
Already a facility from Flash. Expecting Arb tech
|
y does stream lag when critical moments of games happen 
|
Flash has a timing but he is going starport.
|
|
|
Flash getting port with tower, gets scouted by Stork.
|
|
|
wow anotehr armonry for flash with academy
|
Flash is so far ahead now, he's been on 2 base for ages and stork has just set up his 2/3rd
|
Stork sees the incoming dropship. Flash is going to expand.
|

thunk, you should come out to the big screen with me and general nukeem.
science vessel coming out for flash looks like, not sure if he's going for a dropship though

Stork adding more gates etc but he's still way behind =/
Stork going to expand to 1 to catch up in economy.. Flash taking out his own temple (obviously to expand there - which is odd, i thought he'd push)
Stork has started his nexus at 1 main
|

1 gol for flash to prevent more harass, flash had 5 gates and 2 forges.

another expand by stork at 1

Wtf? 4th nexus going up for Stork now...I guess he knows that he has to be super risky to catch up/.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Oh man. Stork makes a 4'th nexus already.

Flash looking to expand. And drop!

Stork switches back his standard templar+army combo. Vult drop incoming for Flash. Flash trying to take a third.

Stork has a DT at 3 to catch any expo
Stork has like 6~ gates and has storm
Flash is playing really safe... almost tooo safe...
Dropship out for Flash (loaded with vultures) and he's building another CC - i think to float to 6
dropship going for Stork's main
Goons harassing Flash's new CC - tanks scare them away

Vult drop in the main and nat. Doing some damage.
|
Aotearoa39261 Posts
Okay.. flash dropped two vults at storks main, 1 at his natural
useless drop really =/
|
United States17042 Posts
drop goes off stork's main, and drops another one atthe nat. is he going to scout the nidden expand? no stork manage to make sure flash dosen't see it.
|
Mining is stopped completely in Stork's main for quite some time. Flash waaaaaay ahead
|
The FPVOD makes me so impressed at Flash's play. He really controlled that dropship and all of his units really well.
|
United States17042 Posts
drop stopped mining for a little bit at stork's main, and now flash scouts the hidden expansion.Is stork mining anywhere? probabloy still at 1...
|
|
|
flash saw the hidden expo's, expect a push soon, followed by the stork face and a gg.
|
Aotearoa39261 Posts
lol two vultures are dropped behind the minerals at 3 which stall mining there for awhile..
Flash is moving out with vult/tank
Stork is very low on zealots
Flash is pushing towards stork and taking his third expo at 6 as expected

OOOOOOOOH My God. Flash is the freaking MACRO terran! Expanding again!
He's showing Stork he isn't afraid to macro him out
|

storm drop killed 0 scvs, but damaged 2 tanks =\

lol stork tried to storm drop 6 got zero kills hahaha
Flash has tanks there to clear it up now
Gets a decent storm off on the tanks but w/e no major damage
|
United States17042 Posts
uesless storm, tanks come along to prevent harass. flash's dropship is really paying off for itself well.
|
Flash beginning to push Counter-clockwise, taking advantage of the quick third like (it's really a quick fourth in this case) as Plexa noted.
|
Stork's storms on SCVs is no match for Flash's ridiculous reaction time.
|
I think Flash is gonna lose.. I can feel it..
|

flash is going to push along the high ground towards stork's main. Clever clever clever. I wonder what stork is going to do about it.
|

I think Flash i going to try to break into Stork's main by killing the temple!
He can slow push in and do a lot of damage.
|
lol the dt is hitting from behind the mineral line

Flash ferried some shit across the min line at 6 and is buildling turrets there etc
Flash mining 9 from inside his base lol

Jim's looking at it too, I think.
Stork is threatening to do a massive backstab while Stork takes his fifth. Ridiculous.
And Flash is slow pushing into Stork's main.
|
flash ferrying units into stork's main, killing good amount of goons
|
hey stork it's called zealot legs, preferably researched sometime before it's 4 bases to 3
|

Stork has a hugeeeee army o.O
Flash ferrying units into Stork's main from 6, interesting play - kinda like the turbo newbie haha
mines are raping goons in Stork's main haha
|
United States17042 Posts
stork needs to go defend his main, but with the temple there he's going to have a rough time.
both flash and storm abusing the map to the fullest
|
|
|
stork is getting raaaaped
|
Wait, I'm confused. Say you spawn at 7 in harmony, is your third base "meant" to be 9 or 6?
|
man flash really exploiting the map benefits elevatering units
wow my stream is bhind
|
I think those drops are ultimately putting Flash behind though.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
OH man Stork's main is in trouble. Nice map abuse Flash.
Flash isn't over committing to that attack on the main though. Not many units there
|
United States17042 Posts
stork is getting pushed bacck because of the siege tanks fro mbehind the temple. 11ish gates from stork
|
Aotearoa39261 Posts
Flash can't mine from 9 becuase of 3 goons, needs to commit some units there to defend
Flash is cementing his push at 6
STARGATE FINALLY FROM STORK
vultures pick off zealots etc from storks army and stork is now expanding to 1 natural
|
game at a standstill, stork is macroing like a beast
|
Flash's laddering units into that gap is causing Stork extreme headaches. Vessels out for Flash.
|
so much multitasking from flash
|
Flash is at 2-2, as the commentator notes.
Stork going Arbiter or Carrier. Who knows? Arbiter probably, Flash is sticking with vultures.
|
United States17042 Posts
flash is trying to get scouting with those vults while pressuring the main with the tanks. interesting, 2-2 grades for flash I think .Stork has awesome gate placement, almost like he was expecting those siege tanks
|
Storks going to lose his main at this rate.
|
Stork's just going to run into Flash's main.
|
huge zlot army with goons and temps
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Stork needs to storm 9.
Stork taking top right natural, his 5'th base.
And Yes Stork has a huge army. I don't thing Flash has many units.

Flash repels Stork's push!

Flash isn't playing well imo, he's played this wayyyy too passive and given stork a fightign chance
Flash still trying to push into Stork's main from 6, but not really working too well..

Flash fends it off somehow, but is definitely behind now.
Stork adding gateways like no other.
|
how the hell does stork stop that AGAIN??

Aotearoa39261 Posts
WOW EPIC DEFENSE BY FLASH - just managed to save his natural
the push at 6 isn't gaining any serious ground
|

|
|
|
United States17042 Posts
flash holds it off, becuase that's a pretty narrow entrance. stork is strying to replace his gateways by rebuilding them at 1. I hope that he kills his temple at 1
|
flash is screwing with stork in his main
the dropship keeps ferrying shit over and annoying stork
|
Flash isn't going to give up he' sjust playing super defensive. He's just wasting tanks in Stork's main though.
|
that 1 dropship is causing so much damage.....
|
Flash is going to lose! AHHHHH

Stork has arbiters buildling afaik... Storm clears out the sting of 6 so he can now live in peace for a bit..
Flash pushing the natural of Stork - Stork will have a tough time defending!
|
nice storms to clear out the tanks behind the temples finally
|
Stork cleans up Flash's forward position at 5 with storm.
|

stork is trying to retake his main, he's putting up a pretty good defnese so far. flash is trying to turn the tables by pushing stork before he has a chance to macro up an army.

WHy isn't Stork attacking 6, he killed all of Flash's tanks there.
|
Huge mine splashes on all the zealots. Flash is going to win!! lolllllllll. PLEASE

Flash is last ditch efforing his way into Stork's main/nat. . Stork's arbiters now pop.

Stork trying to break out but nice mines and vultures save the day..

Flashs push is too strong atm

Arbiter coming and Flash has no science vessels left for EMP.
|
how is flash still in this, it's 6 base versus 3.5
|
United States17042 Posts
lots of tanks for flash, arb out for stork, flash has stork contained. stork should be able to get a pretty good flak with his units at 1
|
who else here thinks that zealots should cost 125 min and 3 supply?
|
not looking good for stork, getting contained
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
6 is about to get raped it looks, but Stork's nat is in trouble!
Moment of truth right here!
|
Ugh Flash, protip: dont seige up on your own mines.
|
United States17042 Posts
flash pushes in, manages to get vultures through, stork is strying to hold off flash, but the tanks are nailing units easily.

That was some sweet zeal bombing by Stork. Damn, if Flash wins this. Stork's really struggling to defend this.
|

Flash expanding to 11 natural
Stork doing some nice zealot bombs, but its not enough
Flash will kill off Stork's natural despite his best storms
Stork isn't using his arbiter? lol

Stork's nat is still mining btw.

How is Flash making this a game? Stork has twice the number of bases.
|
OH shit I think Flash just lost, Stasis + a great surround.
|
NICEE FLANK BY STORK, STASISING VESSEL, AND SANDWICHING FLASH'S UNITS

stork with excellent flank!!, surrounds stasis'd tanks + vessel

How stork defended his nat is just beyond my understanding

Flash is smart and sends units top to intercept the flank. Stork loses units carelessly.
BUT HE BREAKS THE PUSH, FLASH IS IN TROUBLE!

flash showed why this map is so good for T, but stork manages to take the game on the map no problem.

stork's dt drop was actually very successful. It contained flash and stork was able to double expand, and adding a 4th very soon too..

I really don't care about Fantasy PL as 90% of the people above me probably have Flash anyways. Sounds like a GG, I'll be sure to catch the VODs tomorrow.

so it looked like flash only wanted to push with 2-2 and tried to harass/map abuse his way there, stork expected that and grabbed a shitload of expansions, and though flash's push came close stork's economy kicked in right in time

Stork was so behind then dumb passive play coupled with poor micro and decision making from Flash lost him the game. THATS RIGHT FLASH - SLAP YOURSELF IN THE FACE YOU PLAYED TERRIBEL! he wasnt behind much he stalled flash's mining at the natural for long enough
and he saw that flash was going fac armory port scifac 2nd armory before even adding a 2nd fac..., so he could just expand like mad

That's because Flash played VERY passively. Stork for a long time had practically no units and Flash could've simply pushed into Stork's main easily.
Stork massively expanded because he was so behind that he had to play risky.

I'm curious how much eAPM would be required to select 2 tanks and target goons while targeting zealots with vultures and checking health of goons so that you only put 1 tank on low health ones?

You know, Stork showed a lot of maturity here. He went arbiters instead of carriers, to counter Flash's vulture play. A lesser Stork would have gone Carriers and let Flash come back.

flash never made that huge ball
stork cut his units from time to time

Stork was never behind. He was sacrificing units because he knew he would run Flash over like that. I'm surprised Flash held on for so long.

Stork gambled after that DT drop and Flash. Stork didn't show any fear and overexpaned while Flash was staying on 2 base and going for double upgrades&drops and a late third.

What you guys must be shitting me
Stork was behind for the most of the early game. His DT drop completely fucking failed and then his expansions were wayyyy late. Flash had the economic advantage at that point - but he just sat there and took his third/fourth at standard timing when he should have taken it much earlier. Stork then triple expanded (essentially) to catch up in macro and because Flash just fucking sat there Stork managed to comeback and win
|
That DT Goon attack by Stork and that hold by Flash, then the meticulous drop/cliff/building abuse by Flash and clamly holding by Stork ~_~. The fast 4 Nex seeing slow fact increase, the expo mining stalls, Then the clam natural stall... O man, that game was so good by both. ~_~
How do you push a protoss with 1-0 and 3 factories? -_-;; He has templar tech and his goon base never was hurt even after the natural attack. Whaa.aa
And his 4th was ridiculously fast.

I wouldn't contest that the record shouldn't include GSI, however I think it's deceptive to state Stork's record against Flash as though him winning the matchup is to be expected when Flash was clearly much stronger than him in their matches earlier in the year.
|
plexa, i agree stork was at a disadvantage. there defeinitly was a timing window but flash decided to play it safe; he thought he could win with full upgrades, and instead did the dropship ferrying trick.

I dont think Stork was behind at all throughout the game. The dt drop was a tremendous success. Flash had to pull scvs to main back and forth, by which time stork's expo was already up, and his third like 30% done or something.

How can you say that game was good by Flash -.-;; that was just a brilliant game by Stork and shitfest from Flash

Stork's 2nd and 3rd were quite timely. And his DT/goon attacks slowed Flash down a lot more than one may seem. Flash may have been even, at best, but then he started burning units dropping Stork's main and the game went downhill from there. Stork didn't take any more bases after Flash's 3/4 because he didn't need to. He knew he was set for at least 4 or 5 more minutes of the game.

Juni has a pretty good chance of winning.

What did Flash do so wrong that made it a shit storm? Stork's nice storms to clean up the main harass is pretty hard to stop with sieged tanks. O well.
He grabbed a brilliant timing to push out. He couldn't push at a faster time imo. His factories were really late because of the DT drop. I think the frontal attack didn't set Stork back at all. How many tanks did Flash lose? At least 3. Maybe even 4. What do you expect from Flash? God mode?

OH LOL nice juni - juni is faking hydra allin and once the probe dies he immediately techs lair Corsair wil socut this soon though..
Tempest adding like 4 gateways before citadel

plus 1 legs it looks like from tempest considering the gateway count

Junwi, what type of timing was that? Attack so there's just enough units for Tempest to stop you?

juni takes out gateway blocking tempest's choke

tempest pushing out now, leg speed should be ready soon

When Stork was expanding his 3rd nexus
Kang min said something like this...
"He has seen that Flash has only two factories and assumes that Flash has less or no intent to push fast. So he goes for the 4th nexus. This is a 'extremely; good decision."

Tempest is just going to have leg speed and roll Junwi.
Junwi was actually able produce a lot of units.

What the hell. You beat Jaedong through good play and then that? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh.

Why did Tempest push out with his first 2 archons when there were about 15 muties in his base?

I'm glad Plexa was able to live report that I wouldn't have been able to type that out.

so he used archons to attack rather than defend the mutas.... that cool if u liek losing i guess

imo tempest came out ahead after the speedlot build (thats how FE used to be played btw, FE -> 5gate +1 speedlot timing push). But then that counter... that counter was so badddd

Not at all. Flash sucked it up big time by being extremely passive with his build after the failed DT drop. There were some cute moves from both sides, but Flash didn't play that game well at all

Stork is now 7-4 against Flash, GG. but wasnt their last encounter from the Finals where Stork lost 0-3? So. Stork is 7-4 all time so he > Flash ^^ Stork is more accomplished anyway regarding individual leagues.
Stork has been around more than twice as long as Flash though.

Not only that, if Junwi had chosen to go lurker instead of muta he probably would have lost to the speedzeal rush. The Muta allowed him to counter, too.

I really hope 815 somehow wins so that we can see Jangbi fight Luxury.

I think you guys underestimate how nice a position Stork had after the opening game. Stork had center, where should Flash expo besides the two side temple expos?
How should he push with fast vessel, do you remember how fast his facility was? and the dropships. His actual timing to push into Stork was sick. It was also supposed to end the game since the upgrades were timed to finish then. He had 3 attack, dunno about armor.
Vulture Drop -> Slow Push, since Stork had templar+Mass units

JUNI VS TEMPEST
there is no excuse for tempest losing that game except that he has horrible horrible decision making, which makes his wins over Jaedong that much more fucked.
he was dominating after his +1 attack, which is just a stupidly good build, and instead of dealing with the immediate threat to him (the mutas) comfortably with his two archons and corsairs, which would have left him 3 base vs 3 base ready to roll his way to victory he makes the dumbass decision to counter.
Jaedong lost to this kid with good mechanics but horrible decision making because this speedlot --> archon build is so fucking good that the slightest misstep by zerg and you are done. Even in this game had a few things gone microscopically differently (namely with Tempest focus firing something instead of running around not doing any permanent damage) , Juni could have lost a hatchery, his spire, etc. and Tempest would be astronomically ahead instead of just decently ahead like he was when he threw it away.

I wonder if Tempest sent out the 2nd attack cuz he wanted the natural hatch super bad and thought 2 archons could tank it through? I dunno what went on in his head - -

I'm arguing that after the failed DT attack he needed to build facts instead of the starport and facility. EDIT: I say this because Flash should have known that Stork was way behind economically because he knows the timings
Plexa is arguing that because Flash DID build the facility and Starport, that he needed to expand quicker. He could have slow pushed to the closest gas expo and just camped there for awhile. Instead he went way too slow.
So our arguments are just different ways Flash could have played the game

My bad about the expansion thing...its kinda late and I didn't notice that. W/e I think that Flash was under enough pressure in the expansions that he had. I think he banked on his harassment being able to take out some of Stork's expos and it failed. Still a great game played by both parties.

Vulture Drop -> Slow Push, since Stork had templar+Mass units He didn't need to get vessel, and he didn't get those until much later. He got it for fast +2. What happened, as far as i can remember, was that Flash thought Stork had 3 base not 4 and overestimated the number of unit Stork had (i think he may have also expected 3 base arbiter, which is semi-popular). Of course this meant Flash slow played instead of agressively expand

But if he doesn't get facility, he gets 2 armories for SUPER SPEEDY 1-1???

Flash showed inflexibility, from what I gather in your comments, that game because it seemed like he was going for his fast upgrades one-punch push when he needed to be more aggressive.

Oh man I completely agree.
Not only should he not have countered, but instead of splitting out his zealots in a million directions, he should have gone for the Hydra den that was UNDOUBTEDLY at that point going for lurker tech. that or the spire. In the end he took down nothing and lost all his zealots. And then, yeah he threw away his archons while he had nothing to defend with in his main.
I HAVE to assume that he thought that Juni was low on money and a ground army. But no, he wasn't - he had many hydras and lurkers to boot.
|
the only thing i have to say is that flash lost too much time and tanks trying to push stork's main with drop ships (too little vult ftl )when he could just push his nat with that..

It's his fast armoy build, It's inflexible by nature. It's just digustingly strong. It's like Mike Tyson Terran -_-;

Whatev I think Juni did pretty good - maybe it was Tempest sucking but like people have said this build is awesome so I dunno what more Juni could have done he did a great job of clogging the road to his main with hydras to slow the zealot march and buy time for the mutas and he managed to avoid losing any drones or tech or anything and I think after that he had to have been ahead since he defended the timing push without losing any drones or tech or bases. So then he countered and Tempest had not been pumping sairs or cannons so even if archons hadn't headed for his main he could have danced around tempest's bases and done a lot of damage.
EDIT: also he teched to lurkers which i suppose is standard but at least he didn't go mass mutas like he's done before to poor effect.

Considering Flash went dual armory strategy, he played extremely aggressive. The reason he lost the game was because he lost those few tanks in Stork's base. And when TOP TOP tier like these plays each other, one small mistake like that give away the game.
Besides that, Flash played picture perfect.

Yeah - Flash really played a good game. I just think that in general terrans either need to do heavy harass or push out early. Flash kind of got the harass down with those vultures, but I guess he didn't realize that Stork had so many bases.

Well, one thing DTs do is make your opponent save scans. So yeah, Flash was playing totally in the dark there. Which was why Stork got away with just expanding like a fiend there after his failed DT drop.
Still, Flash's decision to go for pure upgrades so quickly allowed Stork back in the game. In the end Stork macro > Flash upgrades.

Why would he? Everyone has a player they can't beat. Jaedong is 0-5 against Casy for example.

I'm surprised by how well Stork played
recently he has been so bad. Espclly post-OSL.

You're missing the whole point of Flash's strategy. Dual armory strategy is used to have good upgrades, hence, the longer the game, the better for terran. (We all know Full up mechs are superior to 200/200 protoss ground units) This means terran does not have to play aggressive at all.
Now knowing that, Flash's stragey does not matter whether protoss gets 3 or 4 expansions. It irrelevant due to the following reason: 1)Terran is passive and wait for 3:2:2 (or 3:3:3). 2)Protoss gets 200/200 ground units. Then its very obvious who's going to win.
But let's say Protoss goes risky and gets Carriers. As long as Flash scans the rigth place, and scout properly, we all know what happens to carriers to Dual Upped Goliaths. (For some time, this very strategy was called Anti-Carrier build).
The longer the game gets, terran just keeps getting stronger. In this game, he played too aggressively and lost few tanks.

Proved that he deserves his #2 spot, with great sense putting up so many expansions after the DT harass used up scans AND saw Flash going for fast tech. As aforementioned, the subtleties are just numerous.

No I just think that it doesn't matter that much. She has Stork and JangBi, OSL finalist and MSL semi-finalist, plus FBH go up against 3 fairly new players, EffOrt, sKyHigh, and Movie.
it was much more up to the players then anything like usual

39 pages and counting for a 3-0 lol
|
I wanted to see JangBi today, but oh well.. Stork really rock the game so guess i have be satisfy with that.

Stork's PvT is in a league of his own. He would look bad against zergs or tosses at times, but Stork just never fails in PvT. Other tosses may be good at the MU, but Stork just dominates it.

I don't think Mechis stronger than 200 food Toss at all. It will be in a head to head battle simply because tanks rape everything that stays on the ground. + Gols and turrets take out any shuttles for z bombs.
The thing is that When terrans push they are very very slow. This allows toss to use arbitors to recall into the Terran base. Then they have to send some or all their units back. This takes more time. Additionally even if toss does get 200 up against a terran mech force, if the toss army dies, it won't matter if by that point they have expanded to numerous points on the map - in this case they will just replenish the army fairly quickly - faster than a 2-3 base terran can.
So you can't just wait around as a terran while your toss opponent gets map control and arbitor tech.

Who is watching GOM tonight?

Rock will get DPed by Flash and victory for Bisu!!!
|
HoeJJa is so good
But I think Bisu will take it. He is after all the greatest SC player out these right now.

815 got steamrolled... what was he thinking bringing those drones

You are absolutely correct. Flash knows this as well. That's why he pushed out at a perfect timing in this game. Not too soon, not too late. Heck, he even had vessels ready at the perfect time, even before arbiter was out. This only proves that Flash made one mistake in this game, losing few tanks in his attempt to harrass. And this one small mistake cost him the game because both were playing 100 out of 100 game... well Flash 99 out of 100.

losing tanks.. you mean the dropship play? behind the temple?

I think we agree. I have to say that I was a bit careless when I wrote that Flash lost because he was too passive. I think someone else even mentioned that Stork my have gotten an edge simply because he was able to expand in the right places, where it would have been hard for Flash to do the same.

I think that is his point. Everybody is making excuses for Flash because they don't want to admit that he got outplayed.

imo if Flash didnt waste putting tanks at 6 o clock he might have cinched it

flash got outplayed lets hope rock doesn't outplay him.

Samsung has a solid roster. But they also have one of the best coaches. Pretty much everyone from KHAN played their strongest MU today and that's just as important as having S-class gamers.
|
So where is KHAN in the PL rankings now?

He got outplayed, true. But that was more of a Flash's loss than a Stork's win. I mean after Storks failed dt attempt Flash was really ahead and he had a nice window to finish the game before Stork's double expansions eco kicked in.
But yeah, after that Stork played great.

Just watched the series.
815 LOL what was that drone attack man, that's one of the biggest failures Ive seen in progaming, why the hell didnt he turn back when he saw the bunker was finished with a marine in it and surrounded by scv's.
|
Anyone digging the new uni's? Look awesome.
|
Woah, Flash exploited that map perfectly, using the area behind the temples to directly push into Stork's base, using the small choke into the nat to defend with half his army against all of Storks, and he still lost. Stork definitely deserves #2 PR.
|
|
|
That Flash/Stork game was not disappointing, even though I was cheering for Flash.
|
|
|
The game between Stork and Flash is what I think Stork was planning for the game on Katrina vs Flash in the OSL (remember the dual nex vs bbs?)
Mass expo --> arb >> beats down heavy ups
|
|
|
815's drone attack was one of the biggest failures I've ever seen in SC.
|
flash wasn't really outplayed.. he had big chances to win the game. he didn't pay enough attention on his push when he was so close to stork's natural and lost a bunch of tanks. that was his downfall, anyway he would have won I think.
this was one the best pvt games I have ever seen
