|
Okk game starting Luxury is the purple zerg at 7, Hyun is the Red zerg at 1.
|
wow, your stream is like 5 minutes ahead...
|
Luxury with a slightly earlier lair timing, looks like both have expos but I wasn't paying attention to the drone timings.
|
Hyun just broke Luxury's nat, has about 8-9 lings in his base and is killing the expo hatch.

Looks like I'll keep live reporting since no one else is getting a stream.
|
Fuck what? With Luxury dropping game one, it looks like KTF's going to lose fielding the first decent (read: not retarded) lineup we have all season.
Also, Corinthos, you are a god.
|
once again u save us.... thanks corinthos
|
Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in. THANK YOU!
|
|
Too much copy+paste from the other thread (the team pics don't match).
|
Did Lux cancel his creep colony or did Hyun kill it? My stream is lagging so much I can't tell
|
wow nvm not even cornithos's stream can help out.... ill just stay and listen 2 LR's then 
|
ROFL as i say that my stream works... heh
|
just in time for flash heh

Looks like game 2 is about to start.

Ok game starting
Flash is white at 11
Jaehoon is teal at 7
|
Oh and by the way Flash is playing terran this game.
|

Flash walling in and putting up a fac.
Jaehoon with 1 gate core and sending out a zlot to harass.

you know what
NO LOGOS FOR YOU
I did the thread in like 2 seconds -.-
|
Looks like Jaehoon is going DTs, he is hiding a citadel in the corner of his base.
Flash moving out with an FD, 5 rines 1 tank 1 SCV.
|
Jaehoon is gonna lose his natural nexus, Flash just runs in and lays mines between the nat//main and kills it. He might get run over right now too.
|
1 DT out, the game is going on to hinge on what happens with this one units. Or not, since Flash knows it is out.
|
cmon flash sounds like u have the advantage
|
holy hell my stream is laggy D:
|
Jaehoon survives but is in terrible shape, Flash has his nat up and mining while Jaehoon lost his nat nexus and took some probe damage.
2nd fac going up for flash. He has mines and turrets in his main to defend the DTs.
|
Jaehoon has so few probes mining, no nat and his DTs are failing to do damamge.

streams horribly for me not even worth watching. i c jaehoon putting his nat now and has a shuttle over flash ledge... slideshow npw
|
flash: brb let me macro a bit, then I'll kill you
|
Ok, so Jaehoon took the min only behind his base, I missed that. He has more probs than I thought then. Not that it matters.
Flash pushing out with a lot of vultures and 4 tanks. Jaehoon with about 12 goons.
|
Jaehoon gets run over by vults and unseiged tanks, GG.
|
Flash just pushed out and jaehoon gg. Too easy for Flash
|
w/e flash wins im happy as is... stream is so bad mine as well catch vods later
|

someone gif the jaehoon dance
he's got some major chair micro
|
Game summary: Flash: Does a standard FD rush to expo. Jaehoon: Does a 1gate core ---> DT rush while taking nat at same time:
Moral: Don't tech and expand at the same time.
|
flash is a monster. check out tlpd. 10-0 TvT, very good in others. his "worst" mu is tvz probably only because jaedong is there
|
At least Flash hasn't failed.
And the stream is sooo bad. I got up at freaking 6 am to watch that but the stream is sooooo bad... And somehow I can't use the link provided by Corinthos

loool Jaehoon upgrades AW 1 to trick flash but flash with his stingy personality sees the dragoon and just leaves hahahahaha

I'm hoping that Sea vs Tempest will be an exciting game instead of a 1 sided rape like these other games have been. Also neo requiem will help Tempest, which he needs against free.
Edit: I mean, Sea

you just need to keep refreshing (f5) the page until the stream works smoothly. You can tell by how it buffers; if it buffers in increments of 15% or higher, it will probably work, if it's like 2-3% then you have to refresh it

Let's go Sea!! Crush these KTF fools!
(OK seriously, Sea has to win because the only way to beat KTF is in 4 sets or less)
|
Thanks guys. Hopefully it will work fine now.
|
|
Tempest has had some exasperating games since beating Jaedong a few weeks ago. He has some talent, he just makes these awful mistakes.
|
Ok looks like the game started:
Sea is the blue terran at 9
Tempest is the green protoss at 12
|
I still hope that either Tempest or Firefist can take a game and then everything will be up to Flash.
|
I really hope Tempest picks it up. His timing and mechanics seem good enough, but his decision-making is occasionally piss-poor.
|
^^Edit: very true, the 3set of free vs tempest, it really pissed me off when tempest blew his lead and lost the game.
Sea is walling in. Tempest going gate core gate.
|
Tempest gets reallly close toe breaking Sea's ramp, but spamming repair and a timely tank saves it. Seige mode out now so it looks like he will be OK.

Sea has a starport with add-on, could be he is getting wraiths to counter the popular shuttle builds that are used on this map.
Tempest with a shuttle out, he is bulldoging his way in!

Sea gets his wall broken and loses all his tanks to the Bulldog! He needs another tank to pop now, Sea defending only with SCV!

Sea blocks everything! The proleague king definately!
Sea sees the robo bay too.
Sea might turn the game around very easily because this is neo requiem
|
Sea gets another tank out and manages to force tempest out of his base. He lost a lot of SCV though, so he will be pretty behind. Tempest with no expo yet though.
Lol Sea with an SCV drop to scout Tempests base. cute!
|
WOW maphack much tempest? kk
|
Looks like an elevator maybe? Yes, Tempest drops a reaver with 6 goons in seas base. Yet again Sea loses all his tanks.

omfg this game is fucking amazing
|
i cant tell who's winning!
|
Tempest double expanding now since Sea doesn't really have an army of any kind.
|
Tempest with his nat nexus warped in and a 3rd warping now, it is spotted by vults though. Wraith out now for the shuttle. Sea with no expos still.
|
Sea's doing an excellent job of harassing three bases with what little he has.
|
Sea drops 2 tanks and 3 vultures behind Tempests base, stopping mining for a little bit. Tempest cleans it up. But Sea does another drop in Tempests main! this is very good play by sea.
Looks like Sea now has his nat as well while Tempest is only mining from 1 base due to harass.

|
Sea setting up to push into Tempests nat. Protoss has no zlots to deal with this, he is pretty dead.
Oh wtf, that shouldnt have worked. Tempest blunted the push with just goons
|
Sea is really doing a good job of coming back in this. He has just the right unit balance and positioning to enforce a mini-contain and Tempest just suicided a lot of 'goons trying to break it.
|
Sea moving in, Tempest with no units left to defend with. This is GG for sure.
|
Amazing play from Sea. What a game.
|
United States20661 Posts
Tempest goes and chucks the game away after building a decent advantage.
Nice harass/push play by Sea though. Very retro.
|
Tempest is fucked
|
Double expo really backfired in this game. Sea had nothing for a while, but he kept a dropship, a couple of tanks, and and a few vultures and that was enough to keep Tempest subdued with harassment until Sea got his own Natural up and got a good army.
|
Man watching Sea plays sometimes really make me wonder why he hasn't done squat in the starleagues up to now. Such a great comeback.

Looks like light comes in on the bottom at 5, Firefist at 11.

12 hatch from Firefist, nothing special there.
Looks like no fast gas from Light so maybe no mech, but I could be wrong. Also Light didn't wall in, so probably no mech.

|
Lol? Was Light checking for a proxy hatch or somthing? He scouted the expo at 8 with a marine.
Maybe he was looking to snipe an overlord.
|
Firefist looked surprised.
"wut no mech?"
|
Light going for a fast CC, he expanded with only 4 marines no bunker.
|
|
Oh Light is moving out with about 10 marine 2 medic, and he runs by the sunkens!!!
|
AHH...oh. Light's runby kills some drones but fails when he lingers in the nat too long. Mutas pop and kill his force just before they can deal damage. Few turrets for light now.
|
Odd, FF has not seemed to take a 3rd
|
5 marines 2 firebats stop FF's 3rd from morphing, gets cleaned up though. Light moving into the center with a fairly large MM force.
|
Lurkers are out now, Firefist has a decent army but no 3rd base to speak of.
|
This is reminiscent of last season's TvZ's. Ugh.
|
it seems firefist is great at micro/macro individually but multitask is what he doesn't seem to excel in
|
Can't anybody pull through for KTFlash?
|
HE IS FUCKED WITH THOSE LURKERS
|
Light is moving out with his Tank MM ball now, 1st vessel out. FF's 3rd is up now, pretty late though. Firefists army is just being trapped in a corner and forced back. He is just being forced back and whittled down with no possibility of a flank.
2nd army for FF is ready and defilers are popping.

Control fail as about 20 lings get aggro'd and suicide into the terran ball. Even more suiciding now.
|
JESUS WHAT WAS THAT?
THOSE LURKERS JUST GO INTO RANGE
|
Terrible control from Firefist, units suiciding into the terran army all over the place. The zerg and terran are both on 3 base right now. Drops in FF main kill all the drones before getting cleaned up.
Only dark swarm is preventing FF from being run over by Light right now.
|
|
That was the most fail display of defiler control and scourge I've seen.
|
Ahh this is onesided rape.
Those lurkers got cornered in the beginning and it was all downhill from there.
|
A failplaguuuu by FF only gets 1 vessel. Light is now right up to his opponents nat, and is now erasering the drones. This is just sad.

How the fuck is this any different from 2 seasons ago when Nal_rA was carrying the goddamn team.
Atleast 2v2 was a coin flip where it would be a win or a loss
Right now, the only coin flip we have is Luxury.
|
|
haha, poor flash
|
Okkk....Light is screwing around a lot now. 2 BCs, CC float about FF's base. I really hope he doesnt screw up and lose this game at this point, being that he is very far ahead.

Actually, I forgot about Hoejja. When Flash fades into mediocrity, he can be the one that wins when everybody else loses!

luxury is turning out to be not worth the money KTF bought him for. I just hope he will step up.
|
God, it doesn't even matter whether or not KTF fields Hery and Violet, they're going to go 1-3 every match anyways. I can't imagine it's good for your morale when you lose every match with the best Terran in the game on your team.

He does need time, but the difference with KTF and SKT is that SKT actually has a fucking lineup.

KTF is turning into the new Pantech
|
they should play Lucifer and 815 more imo. They were really good the previous seasons.
|
Oh my fucking god, why on earth dose luxury fail, i go to work and come back to see this T_T at least flash won
|
Did KTF put Hoejja on the proleague roster yet? I think they need to do that. I also think they should use Haran (instead of fucking Zergbong).
|
KTF has got to be looking forward to the all kill round lol. Yeah, its gotta suck for team morale and for Flash.
|
I think KTF roster isn't bad at all. It's just that everyone's inconsistent. So they'll have good days and bad days. We're not talking Ace players or T1 zergs here. They actually do have some talent.
Luxury turned south real quick though. I mean, it wasn't that long ago when he was tearing through WCG Korea and carrying OGN to the proleague finals. Either he's not used to KTF, or it's a very rapid decline.

That's excatly what I thought... And it is very frustrating indeed. But at least Flash is doing well recently.
|
The reason it's so frustrating is that there's so much hope. The newcomers (Hoejja, Tempest, Stats) all have heaps of potential and Luxury might step it back up any day now. If they would start winning some games, we could see KTF compete with the likes of Samsung and Lecaf - but until then, we just have to pray that Flash is allowed to play a second time.

So Flash is 17-6, rest of team is 21-36. Ouch.

hehe why do people keep saying BC is fucking around when late game against survivor mode zerg, BC's are way better than more vessels because:
a) you already have a lot of vessels to take care of and you rarely use all the irradiates b) BCs don't require a lot of babysitting, you just move and attack and leave them c) BCs can harass expos that ground armies can't (due to lurker+swarm) d) BCs require a ton of gas for the Z to kill, which really really hurts the starving survivorzerg
BCs are the smart, proper choice to maintain the lead, not fuck around!

His play against Forgg was excellent..against Mind not so much..but Mind can beat anyone in TvT and has done so, (maybe not fbh on record?)

Sea and Light are solid PL performers, but i'd like to see ruby getting more playtime too ~_~

Mind has never beaten Flash ^_^ (0-4)
Luxury is so bad after coming to KTF sheesh. I can't believe KTF is doing worse than last season with him; although having Lucifer suck now does hurt.
|
I really enjoyed the game between sea and tempest. Sea fought off a strong push that broke his wall, and would normally be extremely hard to stop. From there, he stops a reaver combined with shuttle elevator, and still manages to use his vultures to kill enough probes from tempest's 3 bases to get him back into the game. It was a really nice display of holding alot of pressure, and then finding a way to catch back up.

Yeah, I'd say they're a very good unit. If you have them as part of a ball they like never, ever die and clean up ultras quite nicely (and they one hit fairly damaged zerglings) Even with the loss of irradiate, Yamato is only 100/100 and actually better in a few instances because while it has a chargeup, the damage comes all at once. The ability to fly around and wreck expansions fairly easily once a certain number is reached is also quite nice.
Oh, and they cleanup doom drops without hydra or defilers like cake if you've built up enough of them and anticipated a drop. My friend dropped like 20 lurkers on me which ordinary would be a death sentence, but I killed them all and all he destroyed was like two barracks and a depot or two...

BCs are the smart, proper choice to maintain the lead, not fuck around! Ok, but from the fact his was floating a CC over Firefist's hatchery I was getting the impression that he was just being bm.
FF was taking a hell of a long time to leave.

Well that base was actually closer to Light's base than Firefist's, I think he was just trying to expand there and then, "oh, look what we have here :|".
That being said, I hope he gets angry and plays a little better next game.

Reminds me of sAviOr vs NaDa on Blue Storm, where sAviOr either expanded under a floating CC or NaDa flew the CC over the existing expansion and built a Spore Colony to kill the CC...lol~
