A spin-off from go? I'm more surprised at the top (ex top at least) Jo Hun Hyun playing such a game, which some go players might consider as blasphemy to go.
Seems like a combination of Battleships, go, risk.
what i can't believe is that the best go player (?) lee chang ho is at the edge of eliminated

A lot of recent maps have pretty narrow chokes so that 2 zealots and 3 probes can hold out for quite a bit.
Tears of the Moon not only has the back entrance, but even the front entrance is ridiculously wide, preventing a full block by just a couple of units.
Yeah, Medusa has a narrow choke. As does Byzantium 2. Destination too. And Chupung Reyong definitely has a narrow choke and no back entrance either. It must be just a funny coincidence that you would have a Protoss icon.

I think bisu will withdraw all future SL's with a map where the FE in PvZ is not possible

rofl! shuttle doesnt defend cannon with probes in time!
cannon goes down, lux gets 2 lings into shuttles main
|
This game is so WEIRD.
Shuttle building a pylon at the back of lux's expansion...gonna build cannons there too...5 lings in shuttles main...wtf...
|
Really bizarre game so far! Very entertaining, nonetheless.
|
Hmm I think he can build a sunken to outrange the cannon...
|
Zealots are Shuttle's least favorite unit apparently, he keeps sending them out to die.

Intense ling vs. zealot micro going on, Luxury easily winning with superior numbers and sexy control.

What does my protoss icon have anything to do with it? I'm just responding to you saying that Luxury's tactic would've worked on most maps, when it's obvious that Tears of the Moon is an exception to other recent maps. Hence, there is some map factor involved.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Shuttle wasn't an idiot, because he should've either gone one-base strategy or build a ton of cannons if he wants to FE on the map.

Neither player is too economically sound. Luxury going for spire, and has Shuttle contained with lings. Shuttle just getting first assimilator up.
|
shuttle is gonna get spanked ^ ^
mutas coming soon!
only now shuttle has started his gas!
|
Shuttle wont even have stargate up when mutas arrive~~ this is kinda over.
