Actually now that I think about Calm's build was fucking awesome that game. It looked like a fake 2-hatch muta (even had the spire build at the same time as the den and built the 3rd hatch at the bottom of his base so it wouldn't get scanned) with the 12 speedlings. He then just used his fast lurkers to defend his 3rd (and later 4th) and basically hive-rushed. He then used lurker-ling-defiler for the most part, with a healthy amount of upgraded hydras which forced iris to make a lot of tanks. Then he transitioned into ultras. It was a really fucking awesome Build.

Or maybe I'm just looking too much into it lol.

I love how the MBC commentators color coordinate their shirts. Sad that Nal_Ra is among them rather than on the bench. Even B-team Tossgirl gets to sit on the bench.

That Ace match was really good. Not going to lie.

Well, he looks like he really enjoys commentating, he's always smiling. I'd prefer if he was still playing and kicking ass, but if he lost his motivation and decided to move on, I'll be happy for him.

Calm did a great job shutting down the expos of Iris. If he didn't, he would have lost.

And Iris didn't put much effort into keeping them. =/

Well Iris did see 3 hatch build, so no 2 hatch.

Main things why this build worked out good. Fake spire and weak 3 hatch base play and hiding lurkers. Calm managed to take all Iris m&m from natural to kill those 2 lurkers and drones could maynard with no problems to 3rd gas (kept expansion hidden).

Iris scouted his 4th gas attempt before he even did know that Calm had 3rd gas up and running (I guess he guessed possible expansion somewhere). Perhaps he felt he was way ahead but failed to scout

I want July to move to SKT

That didn't work out the first time, probably won't again.


what happened?


There wasn't really any one reason, it was a combination of factors.

Rumors include (in order of relevancy):
a) tension with Bisu, who had also moved to SKT from MBC
b) poor performance from July
c) being coached by iloveOOv, rival and then-retired.



So what is the history between July and Bisu? They don't like each other or what?


I forgot to mention b.5, that SKT1 wasn't doing so hot either. I don't know, they just don't get along. And if you look at their history of games July is 3-2, but his 2nd win (on blue storm) was a disconnect between Bisu and July with July given the win. If you look at the game, Bisu was so far behind but at the time Bisu was Bisu-unbeatable and if a DT was out the game would have been a rematch. But the DT wasn't out and the win was given to July. And the ones in the Bacchus and Incruit OSL they played each other in the group stages, and then the tie breakers. (Bisu advanced both times; they did not meet in the Ever OSL). They have a close rivalry going.

From here on out, it's speculation:
You can probably also relate it to the fact that Bisu is the PvZ killer who invented the Protoss FE and July is the type of person to go for the 2 hatch hydra cannon breaks or ling all-ins every time and I bet that caused some friction. In the most dramatic sense, it is a battle of styles.
You can't forget that MBC is July's team. He built it from POS, from his own effort. Bisu came in, FE'd his way to victory, and became the face of MBC. I can't remember who was traded first, but I think it was July, and he was forced to leave his team (to SKT1) and Bisu then followed. I bet that was annoying for July. If Bisu was traded first, this point is only marginally valid; July was playing poorly when Bisu was dominate though.


Ah thanks muchos. I had heard July left MBC because he didn't feel they were paying him what he was worth. I didn't know he built the team though?
But Bisu becoming the face of his team would definitely make sense. July keeps winning in the group stages and losing the tie breakers, I would love to see those two in a real b03, bo5.


Nice fiction. Now for some facts:

July left MBC over a salary slash during contract renegotiation, which didn't make sense since he played a big role in MBC winning the PL through out 06. With fist full of moola SKT scooped up July, and Bisu soon after. Now, there's no documented rivalry outside of televised esports b/w July and Bisu. Even then it's made up by fan hype cus, naturally, they each specialize in destroying the other. Rivalry? Okay. Friction? Dreamed up.

I can think of one guy in SKT July hates though, and he hates July. He's also a senior on the team (you know what that means). Yeah, it's Gorush. These two can't stand each other, if they discuss strategy they disagree on everything. So if there's a source of tension from inside SKT1 affecting July, it's Gorush and his seniority. Personally I hate 'em, haven't done jack after leaving GO and arrogant as hell.

Since transferring to STX, July's done much better. STX is a young team, and to an old, accomplished player like July, there's no one else like him there. It's home.

Very good to see STX won a PL match.

I wanted to see this "sKyhigh" kid, since it was the first time I've ever heard of him. I guess I'll have to download and watch the vods and see for myself what is he all about.

I'm glad that Effort and July won though. <3
