hmm - i hope free isn't sleepy by the time he gets to play
|
lol this is gonna be on MBCGame again, i wonder what the commentators will say hehe
|
Ok, Stork vs GGPlay, I hope it won't last more than 30 minutes.

Samsung 3-0 again. Not likely, but meh, who would have guessed against Lecaf.
|
god i hope this game goes long. although map isnt quite as conducive to long games as andromeda
|
I definitely think Stars have the edge in tonights matchups; we better bring our A game.
|
Stork < GGPLAY [ggplay is 5-1 against stork] Great < Free Odin > MVP FBH > Zero Jangbi> Free/Zero/GGplay

I don't know if I can stand another hour+ long game between the two of them. Heres to hoping it lasts under 20 minutes.
|
i wish Stork tries a probe rush..... 
|
Odin VS MVP matchup of the century
+ Show Spoiler +Check out what Odin did to FBH (terrible quality sorry):
|
I'm going to be a bad fan and watch Jaedong vs Flash no matter what is going on over here. =X
|
FBH vs Zero is gonna be epic if FBH doesn't cheese.
|
Some epic games slated for tonight!
My predictions:
Stork > GGPlay Yes, GGPlay is 5 - 1 against Dinotoss, but it's the Taek-Bang era, and GGPlay now has to go up against the Bang.
great < free free's PvZ is quite stellar, and though I like great's style a lot, I don't think he can overcome the protoss giant.
oDin > MVP Not sure on this one, simply taking an established player over a newer one.
firebathero > ZerO
ZerO is a great rising Z player, but come on, he's going up against FBH, one of the most terrifying TvZers today.
3 - 1 Samsung!
|
Sigh... GGplay vs Stork. = (. They have the longest games = (. Free is cooling down a bit and he never feels invincible...
3-2 Stars -_-;; CMonnn plz kill Khan.
|
Go Stars! Knock Samsung below Lecaf! Yep, that's how I always know who to root for.
|
OMG STORK VS GGPLAY WILL BE PWNAGE
|
Predictions.
Stork > GGPlay: Yes, GGPlay is 5-1 against Stork, but Stork's PvZ nowadays isn't nearly as bad as it was. Also this game won't be long since Stork won't go SaiR/reaver into carrier tech on such a small map.
great > free: If any game would turn out to be Stork vs GGPlay Sequel, it would be this one. I' bmetting on map imbalance in favor of Great. But this is more of a homer pick.
oDin < MVP: oDin just plain sucks. Although he is up against MVP, so it's not auto-lose.
firebathero > ZerO: I think this is somewhat of a tossup, because FBH can look bad TvZ when he's not up for it like against Saint. But he is still a TvZ beast and Destination is a map he absolutely owns.
Khan wins 3-1
If the match goes to ACE, I think it depends on the MU. The fact that Stars has a good toss means KHAN can't just throw out FBH knowing he'll own.
|
I hope GGplay does an offensive hatch
|
I can NOT wait for this
I need sleep because I'm flying overseas tomorrow but there's no way I'm missing all these games.
|
I really hope we get to see either stork or ggplay say "no rush 25" in the pre-game chat before it starts.
|
good thing everyone else is going to watch lecaf vs ktf for jaedong vs flash. that means the stream will be much less laggy.
also:
ggplay wins mvp wins (he's the mothafuckin' mvp; no shit he's going to dominate) free is a newb. he will lose to a two port wraith from the zerg. fbh wins. free will get sent out for ace and do decently well before having a stroke and dying.
my predictions.

zero is overrated
fbh will crush zero if it ever gets to set 4
|
I think Khan will take this 3-0, but I kinda wanna see FBH play~
|
Stork > GGplay Great < Free Odin < MVP FBH > Zero Jangbi < MVP
|
Stork vs GGPlay should've been been placed on the second map :[
|
I have a feeling FBH will play all of samsung's games disguised as whoever is supposed to play and using their races and will win all the games.

Hopefully Stork vs GGPlay doesn't take too long, or my fingers will break off.

These are my two of my favorite teams, so this should be a blast.
Stork and GGPlay are in their booths, looking badass as usual. GGPlay got more cheers than Stork, haha.

STORK SENDING EARLY PROBE, CHEESEEEEE

FORGE and gateway AT GGPLAYS RAMP

Pylon is up, first gateway planted down
GGPlay seems to be going for a 12 hatch?
Forge also down for Stork

GGPlay pulls all drones and attacks, also plants the pool

Holy fuck hahaha gateway blocks ramp, drones cant pass, cannon warping in, ggplay laying sunken near ramp
|
That is some sweet building placement.
|
|
Cannon going down for Stork, Gateway finished for Stork
GGPlay has a creep colony up

Stork has 2 cannons and 1 zealot out
Attacking a somewhat stray sunken
|
GGplay wastes his first 6 lings.
|
Lings out for GGPlay, and he carelessly moves them into the cannons
ZEALOTS THREATENING DRONES oh wait only one goes down

Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
ggplay laying a second coloney, zealot out for stork, gives vision to cannon and forces 2nd sunken to be cancelled... lings out sacrificed to buy time for new 2nd colony, but cancelled
2 zealots slip into mineral line

GGplay don't got this anymoar. 5 - 2 nao
|
Both zealots killed, only 2 drones dead
Cannons taking potshots at the sunkens
|
Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
Once again ggplay trying to lay another sunken in range of the cannon but zealot spots, it is killed, ggplay frantically morphing in 2 more
|
Well, looks like the new version of the map is still a toss proxy haven.
|
Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
finally sunkens morph in range of the cannon and kill it, but there is another and stork is morphing 2 more, building cyber core at home, forge dying to sunken
|
Core is going up for Stork
GGPlay still trying to put down sunks, and Stork still putting down cannons
2 Lings manage to runby the contain
|
Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
Forge down, lings run past! many die but like 4-5 make it through, heading to storks main.
|
If GGplay ran by with more than 4 lings he would have stood a much better chance.
|
Scratch that, 3 lings in Storks' main, carefully attacking probes
Stargate up for Stork
|
Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
take that back, 3 lings in storks main, still 3 cannons or so at ggplays ramp, and 4-5 sunkens up top. stargate finished, lings still running around in stork main being chased by zealots.
|
Stargate is flashing
GGplay runs 5 lings, going for the main again
First sair is out for Stork
|
ggplay might actually win this lol
|
Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
Corsair out, cannon contain outside of ggplay's nat, LOTS of lings in stork's main now, like 8
|
THe lings inside the main are still being annoying, taking out a few probes
However, Stork gets a cannon up
Hatch going up in GGPlays main

GGplay only has 4 drones.

That build was a lot more fragile than Stork made it look. If GGplay had bided his time with his initial control group of lings and then did a run by instead of an attack I think he would have won.

Gotta hand it to Stork, that was pretty slick building placement. ggplay was so adamant about laying those sunkens to try and kill the proxy buildings though, he wasted just tons of minerals and drones. Definitely should've just tried to one base for a little...

I think Stork has done it before, but I don't know where. I want to say Mondragon at WWI or something similar but I'm not 100% sure. But he did it on a 2 player map (I think it was Loki II) and proxy 2 gated.
|
Stork describing his rape to team mates.
|
How utterly terrible. Glad I was watching Forgg - Luxury, and that's saying something.
Stork, you will never be Kang Min, regardless of how hard you try.

what could he have done with one-base? fast mutalisks?

I'm sure there are other considerations, like being a 2 player map, travel time of lings between bases, etc. The amount of cheese on the map seems abnormally high.
|
I'll still be here live reporting. I added the stream Corinthos' VLC: mmsh://75.126.18.2:3113 to the OP

A other important factor would be that the choke not being in the first overlords scouting path

That was a sick cheese. Stork planned it well that regardless what happened to his contain he will be ahead in the game.

C'mon its KHAN they cheese on everything.

Fangirls giving free a kings crown and robe, as well as a cake.
Free stares at the camera all Midas-like.
(rofl im stil LRing this)

before he put on the King's crown he pointed at the poster which said "Free Reign Begins Here"

What does it says on that banner?

wow great held on a lot longer than I thought he would that was one hell of a long intense battle
|
great looking really impressive
|
I guess it's Free's birthday? Pretty nice.
|
Baltimore, USA22251 Posts
That was actually a GG, the non-stop action at Great's nat was hella fun to watch... but I knew the game would be over whenever Free finally decided to go towards the upper right.
But still, very entertaining. And WTF was that, free's birthday or something?
|
|
As much as it pains me to see members of the Swarm getting destroyed like that, free's PvZ is a treat to watch. He's got his own flare and style to it, coupled with his divine control.
|
Free should have gone for the expansions earlier but he won that big battle and wanted to end it right there and went for the main where he was gridlocked for like 5min, if he went for expansions that gg would have come much faster. Still awesome game match of the night so far.
|
iM JUST GLAD WE GET TO SEE FBH TONIGHT

I just gotta say, i love Corinthos, normally i cant watch these that well on daum, but w/ his streams i'm watchin both side by side!!

Great gettign his Lair up.

Oh, lord. Khan zergs have not been able to deal with mech builds. I don't think I've seen them win a single one.

Either way, with odin expecting cheese and having to 9pool, 2port wraith is a good followup.

If that's true, he made an incredibly noob mistake. Any good terran knows the likely ovie scouting paths and if they want to proxy, they just build in the middle.

too many wraiths for scourge to work
well he did get at least one wraith with scourage another goes downto a spore col.

Decent wraith micro from MVP, but nowhere near Lomo's finesse.

Possibly, but if he was intentionally forcing the zerg to 9 pool, sending out your 5th SCV is a huge setback. I still think it was just a mistake to let it get spotted, but I might be wrong.

free moving out with mnm, odin doesnt have shit

Huge surprise MNM force moving out!

Guys, his build was gonna be go check 3, if OL went upward, they miss paths, he sees creep, pulls back and 8 raxes at the infamous RH3 side proxy spot. That awkward up against the wall direct rally.
Then he turtles and goes wraiths depending on failure or whatnot I guess? Anyways, 4 medics = GG

MVP saves base w/o losing and is now ready for any counter

its easier to scourge hunt with wraiths than with mutas right?

Why is Odin still a progamer? -______-;;
That was embarrassing for Samsung Khan...winners of PL last season.

Odin is bad.
FBH vs. ZerO will be the good ZvT.

lol odin
fbh >>>>>>>>>> zero
then samsung will win the ace too unless they send out odin

Game of the night, FBH vs. Zero!
Looking forward to this one.

pretty pimp game by the gansta mvp.

Man Odin is so shit.
When he sees two wraiths what does he do? Build a hydra den and no evo chamber. Then spends the next minute running drones around and losing more than half his drones.
By the time the hyrda den finishes and two hydras pop up there are already 6 wraiths.
|
Main event baby, FBH the zerglsayer vs the rising star ZerO. If this goes to Ace, I'm hoping a rematch with the outcome reversed.
|
lol, Den starts with wraiths hit drones.
I actually want Zero to win. We need more terran slaying zergs. Make it so Z>T til we have Zerg are imba threads.

he has not nor has he ever been raping toss.He beat Bisu, and much in group stages, and then like 2-0 or 2-1'd tempest, and then bisu took a dump on his chest and 3-0'd him. And I think free beat him in proleague, either way I think theyd send out stork to cover both ggplay and free options, I suppose jangbi would also be safe.

Oh haha. The Espada are a key plot point of Bleach. And Odin's lacking something, that's for sure.

ZERO SENDS HIS OVERLORD IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION NO WAY
|
Oh man. I'm kind of happy that FBH is playing because I think he will take it to ACE.
Then we can have Stork vs GGPlay ... again!
I'm worried though because when it comes to crushing the spirits of top SC players, well, he's very good at that. But when it comes to rolling over noobs, he sometimes has problems. It's probably the FBH effect - noobs know that FBH won't do his dance if he wins, because nobody cares, because they are noobs. Then the noobs don't sweat it and then they win.
|
Stars doesn't wanna play Jangbi or Stork for ace, so plz end it here Zero.

Did any one read that News post about YGOSU and what they found about the mutalisk wyrm glave?
It always goes down and to the left, so it's always better to try and hit mm groups from the left side. Otherwise the glave sweeps over to the other end of the group and kills rhines that are the most farther from you mutas.

There was a point in there (like when the ebay lifted) that any other player would have given up. But FBH didn't give up and that's why they're in Ace right now. Not mention the fact that FBH made the most of the lull, making perfect decisions and ripping apart Zero's post-muta choices.

i wanna see jangbi just because i haven't seen him tonight lOl

even though i think it lookedl ike zero had advantage he lost ALOT of units and FBH still had his second cc and 5rax so his macro was only shortly delayed and zero was switchign to lurkers with hardly any units on the field, FBH saw his timing and took down his third.
|
Omg! FBH's Samsung team is not surprised at all. No one getting one, no one excited AS IF THIS WAS EXPECTED OF FBH LOL!
|
I feel like there's a much more elegant way to chose Aces other then pencil and paper.
|
Well, in all my years of starcraft, I don't believe I've seen a glaring imbalance like that. You seriously can't claim FBH did a single thing that any other terran could not have done. Sure, Zero made some mistakes, but should a terran be able to turtle on 1 base after losing that much and come out victorious? Never, in competitive starcraft.
|
Zero wanted Free to win the ace match and have the final glory, clearly zero is great humanitarian and teammate.
|
free[gm] and Stork in the ace?
Anyways, what a comeback from WoongjinStars from like half a year ago. I think they were worse than eStro back then. Now they are challenging KHAN for the Ace.
|
ok fbh played good... but zero pissed the game away.... all his lurkers burrowed 5 seconds too late .... even when irridiated.... hurting everything
|
wtf happened?! I was half-watching and see fbh has his nat cc lifted into his main and has a ton of mutas and lings and shit in it, and i look back five mins later and he just pwns everything and wins
fbhvz is imba
|
i hate fbh but i admit that was some sick play. saving that engy bay turned out to basically win the game...
zero could have done so many things...get 3rd quicker, switch to lurks quicker, get hive quicker, send lurks to harass after bfh moved out....but "could haves" don't win games.
|
No, FBH succeed. Zero played fine but FBH attacked with armor and raped the lurker tech switch. Then he lost control of the game obv.
|
The CC lifting is just a pure crap. this is the only thing that give FBH the victory.
|
this is how much m&m micro can get u...

Zero did a 'closer' build. Early +1 for mutas, hardcore muta/ling and it worked, but then he spent at least 4 rounds of each hatchery continuing to make muta/ling instead of drone/den/carpace/3rd. Which was exactly the only thing he could do that would give fbh a chance.

fbh wasnt getting down his ramp forever with 12 mutas out there, zero just had to exp once or twice and go lurk and the game was over. instead he threw away all his units without anything to fall back on. anyone couldve hit that timing window.

this felt like games like 4 years ago, when terran was perfectly fine off 1-2 bases and zergs usually had 2-3. zero got his 3rd and made tech switches so late that, once fbh landed his nat again, never could keep up the momentum.

Explain how that game was anywhere near reasonable.
Explain exactly what FBH did that any other pro terran could not have done.
It's absolutely ridiculous for people to go around hyping FBH as if he did something special that game. It was part Zero throwing the game away, and part Imbalance. It's not as if FBH did something amazing to 'get himself back in the game'. He fucking turtled.

Zero shouldn't have thrown away his mutas into turrets should have used the map control to expand but eh way to go fbh

It is because zero cut drones to go mass muta early with 2 bases. FBH FE and If defended it successfully, he will be ahead which he did.

That ebay save was the key to FBH's victory.

Both sides are correct, FBH played extremely well, but that dont change the fact that Zero fucked up.

he always has some sort of crazy build, has good micro (like old boxer). seems to like dropships alot

Yeh I noticed, that was pretty bad. And why did he keep trying to take on FBH's mm group head on? He should have continued to harass around his main and natural and kept him busy while he got into macro mode.
Well I think it was ZerO not being so sure how to take handle his own advantage. I guess he just got sloppy and then he got out of his kind of game rhythm. FBH just took advantage of ZerO's inexperience - which made him look really really good. But then again, he probably made it look alot easier then it looked. I doubt anyone would be able to come back so well, even when ZerO began to throw they game.

let this game and Jaedong vs Flash be a lesson not to try to force a win.
the key mistake that Zero made was trying to win immediately. Zero made an excellent choice to go mass muta+ling while FBH was being aggressive in the early-mid game. This gave Zero the opportunity to crush FBH's middle army and immediately put pressure back on FBH. Zero was doing an excellent job of crushing the expansion as well.
HOWEVER
Right when zero looked like he was about to win, i began to cringe as i looked at the minimap. I saw streams of units continuing to flow up from Zero's base. THAT'S SUCH A BAD IDEA. The instant FBH lifted that CC, Zero should have immediately been powering drones and expanding. This would have guaranteed a win in about 6-7 minutes.
However, clearly Zero's eyes got big and he tried to end the game asap. After FBH barely held the key attack, Zero realized the game wasn't over. At that point, Zero began to play smart again. However, the decision making and focus of FBH was top-notch for the remainder of the game and it was just a bit too much. Don't bash Zero for throwing away a game. He made the mistake to try an all-in when it wasn't necessary. Before AND after that mistake, Zero played quite well.
On the same note, consider Jaedong vs Flash (was played like an hour ago). Jaedong made a really strong push into Flash's main and Flash was in the same situation: only 2 goliaths + SCV trying to hold off a zerg onslaugh. However, when the observer went back to jaedong's main, there were TONS of drones and jaedong was adding on hatcheries and expansions. There were virtually NO attacking units being made anywhere. Jaedong completely gave flash the opportunity to rebuild his main. Again, about 5 minutes later, Jaedong was able to win the game extremely easily with 4base vs 1base play. I was re-amazed at how solid Jaedong's decision making is especially against one of his "arch rivals"
RECAP: don't try to force the win. read my article "The Marginal Advantage." Its exactly what i'm talking about =X

Well for one he put turrets in the right place to keep his raxes and popping marines safe. It's not imbalance at all, zero got a bit bloodthirsty and threw his army away instead of cementing an econ advantage and teching faster.

He played a hyper aggressive low eco terran vs a low eco 3 hat lair game.
He did his only option, defend. Not to mention he risked everything pushing out when he did, a strong counter would have shut down his natural again. He used scvs on both sides of themap to determine low troop counts, and then cut of zerg from his late third.
He also pulled out 1/1 grades when most terran would have been struggling just to stay in the game.
He also pulled his CC to his main soon enough to insure it didn't die.
FBH macroed and timmed very well, and once the preasure started he didn't give the zerg a chance to counter. There is no imbalance midgame ZvT esp bionic vs muta, don't be stupid.

Other terrans will just give up when their barracks get taken by zerg. FBH was just barely surviving with each marine coming out off barrack.
And coming back from that state AND coming out to center at that stage is just gut move by FBH. Every other terran would've turtled after regaining the natural expansion and try to harrass his way back in to the game.
Instead FBH knows how to win the game, he sees longer into the game. Even if he defends for few more minutes would not change anything. Therefore he decided to move his force out to the center which became the golden move because he out-microed Zero like hell.
Not many terrans can do this.

It's not imbalance, its Zero being an idiot. Anyone can turtle - the counter to turtling is to take expansions and power drones. Did Zero do that? Not early enough. Thats why he lost. Not due to TvZ imbalance (maybe FBH imbalance yea).

KK, but it's not OMG FBH played GODLY. Don't get too excited, it was only special because of the lackluster midgame performance by Zero. people get excited when players they cheer for make a comeback, whatever the reason for that comeback may be. don't read too much into it...

wow, just the matchup i was looking for!
|
day is right, but when you're a kid (probably nervous as heck out there) against the best tvz'er in the day, and you have such a huge lead, it's hard to not try to go for the win.

jangbi and zero for the ace =(

You didn't say anything even remotely like that before Idra chimed in, though. Calling me out when my original response to the game (note: not to you) was more in line with what he said than what you were going on about (OMG FBH SO GOOD, PERFECT PLAY, etc) - that's lame.
By the way, Zero's 'all-in' wasn't even that strange. You have a clear advantage, and it looks like your opponent is about to gg. You kill off the remaining army, and force the gg. Usually.

lol shame they didnt send fbh. oh well jangbi is good vs zerg
|
Holy crap they're BOTH on my fantasy team. I might actually score points this week!
|
Well, Zero seems to be Hanbit's Harmony player. He's beat some badasses before. ~_~

Jangbi's keyboard is so awesome.

Right when zero looked like he was about to win, i began to cringe as i looked at the minimap. I saw streams of units continuing to flow up from Zero's base. THAT'S SUCH A BAD IDEA. The instant FBH lifted that CC, Zero should have immediately been powering drones and expanding. This would have guaranteed a win in about 6-7 minutes.

lol they should have sent FBH again. Zero morale will be crushed by that comeback.

He tends to talk shit and be BM, you shoulda seen him spamming when he got 2-0'd by some newb

zero's been sent out for ace 3 times in a row now. the last two times, he lost. CAN HE TRIUMPH?
|
No Protoss over Zerg wins on Harmony or Neo Harmony in TLPD (only 2 wins for zerg over toss though).
|
Jangbi, another z-killer facing zero..
|
Yes! I was hoping for a non-PvP. This should be a good measuring stick for Jangbi's PvZ.
|
Zero redeem yourself after that last game... i still stand by my last statement... FBH didn't win, Zero lost.
|
When you're not a very well known progamer, you have to appeal yourself to the audience. And playing by the safe decision is not a good way to appeal. Risky and sudden move like what Zero did in that game will be a much better decision for him, his confidence, and advertisement. Zero can win like Jaedong but that won't earn him much attention.
|
Jangbi 0-1 all-time vs. Zero

Anyways - I was about to say this earlier, FBH is arguably the best TvZer in the world right now, and that game really helped his case. FBH's decision making and game sense once he got put into a really tight spot (mutaling raid taking out nat), from that point on, was completely s-class, he remained calm, cool, collected, and I do sincerely think many other Terrans would have lost right then and there. Yes, Zero made some mistakes no doubt, we all know what he should have done, but still, you can't take away FBH's win there. He is one of the best in the game right now.

A few fun facts: Protoss has never beat zerg on either Harmony or Neo Harmony. Jangbi has gone 8-2 PvZ in his last 10, but he lost his last game (vs. Effort)

This is the most garbage post I've read in a long time. No zerg in the fucking world, playing for a pro team thinks, ok I have two roads, maybe win or 100% win, I'm going to choose maybe so I get more fans.
No zero misjudged fbh's defensive capablities period. Are you fucking kidding me, every zerg in the god damn world would DIE to be able to win like an inshape jaedong.
I'm sorry but unless this was a joke you are actually a retard.

Maybe Zero lost cause he was too busy preparing for the ace match :o
|
On a side note the game reminds me of what Jaedong several months back where he tried to force a win right when he had the advantage which would sometimes backfire. Glad to see Jaedong is maturing up and taking his time to analyze things differently lately even though he hasn't been racking up wins back to back. If Zero can do this it would be interesting.

If he won that game, his popularity (and confidence) would've tripled by winning with style rather than just straight up game.

I'm pretty sure if you win games and play well, you'll get attention. And FBH gets lots of attention because he's amazing at TvZ and TvT. Sure, his shenanigans throw him into the top-tier of stardom, but he'd be well known regardless.

This is ridiculous.
What happened is that Zero overestimated his advantage after quite effective muta/ling play and went in for a killing blow that turned out not to be there, due in part to FBH's ridiculous TvZ. There's not really much else to be said and this psychoanalysis is just absurd.

INTRO IS STARTING (so stop arguing and watch some SC)

... Whatever, Zero is sick. I find him the coolest out of all the zergs trying to make a name this season. It's just rough cuz Woongjin uses him like they did Free last seasons.
And if anything in the game is fuckn imba, it's bunkers. WTF IS THAT SHIT?

this is a freaking retarded argument... a win is a win and thats all that matters.saying he wouldve gotten more fans if he won in a flashier way is a moot point. in the end he lost and he lost fans compared to if he just won...

Here we go, Jangbi at 8 Zero at 2
|
He has a bit of a point. Winning by gg when the hype is still high and the commentators are going nuts is a lot more stylish than 5 minutes of everyone saying 'well, it's only a matter of time... why won't FBH gg already?'
I don't think that really factored in, but the fact is: most players will gg once they've literally lost all their attacking units.
Anyhow, on to the ace.

You guys are right.
But still... Every progamer wants/needs to appeal themselves and poor eco/aggressive style zergs are the fastest way to appeal yourself. And that style comes with a risk. FBH was not famous because of his wins. UPmagic is not famous for his wins. Free is not famous for his wins. But rather for their distinguished style and aggressiveness.

Zero teching to Lair on 3 hatcheries, before speed.
Jangbi adds Stargate first.
Zero adds spire right when his lair finishes.
Jangbi adds a citadel shortly after his stargate, and takes his 2nd gas. Bisu buildddddd.
Jangbi's probe scouts the 12 o clock expansion, Zero's overlord scouts Jangbis tech.
Jangbi already adding templar archives and 2 extra gates, Zero's spire almost done.

The main point is you can't do crotch dances if you lose. And you can't go into MSL selection ceremony acting like a big shot if you can't even qualify.
Sure, you can get style points for winning a certain way, but you have to win first. Also, Savior and Jaedong IMO are very boring personalities, but they have tons of fans because they WIN.

Zero's play sloppy. He's letting drones sit around and that probe slide by his zerglings.

ZERO DRONEDRILLING INTO ARCHONS BEFORE GGING
GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I seem to get a large sense of deja vu watching PvZ these days =/
|
|
Ruthless play from Jangbi.
GG from ZerO! Poor kid looks crushed.
3 - 2 Samsung!!
|
zero sux go jangbi!
|
geez zero folded like a house of cards so quickly and easily wtf ;o
|
Oh man - zero playing up to his name in that one - his head down in shame and rightfully so.
|
i have to wonder what protoss players were doing before Zeal/Archon
seriously was someone just playing one day and he was like 'Hey guys! I found this crazy new build!!!!!'
|
jangbi is so clutch. KHAN FTW

Zero still doesn't have an army, so Jangbi walks up to his nat and kills that, too. Zero ggs. What a terrible decision by the Stars coach to send out a player who was clearly struggling today.
|
wow, zero's been getting wrecked since beating lux/flash.
|
I would really hate to be Zero right now. He just lost 2 games in one day.
|
i feel bad for zero. failing at the 2 most important times.
|
why didn't stork play instead of jangbi?

Does this put Samsung in to 1st place overall in the league?

lol only zerg that even looked halfway decent was great

All the Woongjin Zergs lost today. Wow lame. Fuckn.. they should just say fuck you and 3 hatch chogoling crush. -_-;;
Wow, they say Jangbi's Zealot Archon rush was actually about 15 seconds faster than normal. SICK.
|
Not many team coaches send out a player with a loss as an ace because that's just a huge risk to take. If that player loses again, then he'll definitely feel responsible for the team loss, thus his confidence drained. A bad move by Stars Coach.

January probably figured Stars would play either zero or ggplay since Stork would be likely in their eyes, so they couldn't send Free, and had a best shot with a Z... in return, she sent out her other Zerg sniper (after FBH) who would still be in good shape if they did send Free (which FBH would not be).
|
Why do coaches even bother sending out zergs anymore? (P)Stork > (Z)GGPlay (Z)great < (P)free[gm] (Z)oDin < (T)MVP (T)firebathero > (Z)ZerO (P)JangBi > (Z)ZerO
Zerg=autolose

Because stork is weaker than Janbi against Zerg and they have similar pvp strength.

Is Zerg going to be forced back into some sort of Sauron build?!?
Find out next week

MBC showing the replay as if somehow it differs from the last 20 PvZs wherein the protoss either won or lost on the zeal/archon push. =P

SKT coach.
you're 90% sure the other player will be mind.
you have best and bisu on the roster (and both won). you also have fantasy, who lost in the most humiliating way possible.
you send out fantasy to lose.
nice.

I'm pretty sure Jangbi delayed his +1 attack to get his second archon faster. Unorthodox, but in this case wise decision.

The second part isn't true. Stork's PvP is much, much stronger than Jangbi's.

Yeah, it could just be that that player happened to be picked as the best candidate for the ace before hand because of the other team and the map. From what I know, many of the coaches usually prepare two of their players for a possible ace match and then pick from one of the two. They only decide on the spot when 1) did not have time to prepare for the ACE, or 2) did not expect to get into ace, as when playing the Airforce.

hacpee is correct.
Jangbi >>> stork pvz Stork > Jangbi at pvp
So Jangbi is the better pick if you're not sure if they're sending a P or Z (obviously they weren't sending a T, if there was a high chance of a T, THEN we would have seen Stork).
Oversimplifying a bit, and of course Stork is still spectacular at PvZ, but hopefully you get the point.

Read this. Jangbi is the best player on the Khan roster in practice games, it doesn't mean he shows it in real games, but even Stork admits that jangbi rapes him daily.

Eh, I disagree. Jangbi and Free were both raped about equally hard by Bisu in the MSL, and Free can match any player in the world right now but Stork and Bisu. Zero was a good choice, as Free is outclassed by Stork. A pity he got totally crushed.

Wrong. Jangbi > stork in most of their practice games. Jangbi is the better PvP player. Woongjin dont have any strong terran, they send Jangbi out

He seemed dominant when he annihilated Jaedong in the WCG, but looked terrible when he lost playing against Luxury.

Jangbi is a fantastic PvP player, extremely capable of handling the inconsistent Free.

Khan roster most likely 1) Jangbi 2) Stork 3) FBH

I wasn't, and I did read about the archon bit. The no +1 is interesting, because Jangbi had to have called it, like, 2 or 3 minutes before the attack actually happened.

Sorry if that logic failed. It's what the commentators always say when theyre guessing who's going to come out for the ace match...
I agreed when I heard this because I too would send out someone who won rather than someone who lost on that day.

I swear every time toss mass up an army, whether it be +1 speedlots, zealots/sairs, zealot/archons, whatever. They always catch the zerg off guard with not enough units.
Someone needs to figure out a way to counter this timing push. It's just so ridiculous.

So the Stars' coach made the best decision possible by sending Zero and January did the same by sending Jangbi.
If only the KTF coach would stop being totally boneheaded.

While I don't exactly follow ace match choices closely, this doesn't seem to be the trend. It seems to me that the deciding factors are the map, the MU(who the other team may send) and overall quality.
I believe in Khan vs STX both teams send out a loser for ace(Kal and Stork). If you feel your player is good, you send him.

Wow, thank you... I've always wondered this, at first it sounded to me like they were saying "good show" with the accent.

Great play by Stork in the ace match. Stealing that build of his for icc use.
|
Oh, God... Zero for ace Again??? I know free is slumping, but at least send him or ggplay once in a while for ace.
|
GGplay is not good zerg, he is overrated 100%. He can win only players like Tester, chalrenge etc.
|
Zero is the overratted one. He won once over Luxury and Flash and all of a suden everyone are saying how good he is. To me he is unproven. True, GGPlay is not top zerg, but he is definitely > Zero.

Zerg 0- Protoss and Terran 5. Fucking useless, weak race. Just cut them out of Starcraft. Waste of time.

free should slump his way to the finals this time.

This was one of the best overall series i think i have watched recently for entertainment value.
Stork vs GGplay was downright hilarious, and i think can be safely said was one of the most amusing things to watch.
Great vs Free was just amazing, yes free in the end just walked over great, but for a decent amount of time, Great was trading blow for blow and survived an assault that should have steam rolled him, it was just amazing how he beat the attack back, then pushed back into the game(eventaully losing but still) Insanely impressive play.
odin vs mvp was downright hilarious, another great cheese game.
FBH vs Zer0 Straight up, hilarious. First game in awhile that FBH plays completely straightup, almost loses the game then pushes back and absolutely destroyed zer0, just intense.
Janbi vs zer0 Amazing timing attack by jangbi, perfect push, and just stomped the poor zerg. Had he been a bit slower with the push, the outcome may have been diff, but deff a good show.
|
Wow at FBH. He really is a hero. Shame for the zero.

Now that I look at his stats i realise that it doesnt look that bad. It's just that I hadn't seen him play in PL for ages, (10 days lol) they don't use him for ace and he just lost 2:0 to 1988 in the OSL preliminaries. I fear that it may be begining. Hope I'm wrong!!
sry for my bad english

The game was also similar to the famous Lomo vs. Kwanro game, although Odin didn't really get mutas.
I feel like playing iccup and just 2porting everyone. MVP is an inspiration .

I was sort of mostly refering to how his base looked like it was the computer building it :D Which always happened to me when I was nervous.
|
Best way to win Pl is to use as few Z as possible in the lineups
|
KHAN are similar to SKT1 in that they each have two good Protoss, a good Terran and a crappy Zerg, however KHAN use what they have far better . KHAN even played two Zerg vs Stars and still won, I look forward to KHAN vs SKT1.
|
khan zergs arent good but i wouldnt put them in the same class as skt1 zerg garbage.
by.great seems to be doing alright
|
poor Zero ;< I feel sorry for the kid
|
Why do stork and jangbi get blue jackets and the rest of khan black?
|
that was some cockup by zero
coulda sealed it 3-1, drops the soap, and then bent over to pick it up!!!
fbh is one lucky mofo

Khan zergs have something like 50% win rate - probably not exactly, but something like that. Not exactly earth-shattering, but a record T1 zergs can only achieve in their dreams.
