Zero's gonna all-kill these chumps like it's nothing.
|
too bad MBC's strength lies in terrans. I predict a light mech build to shut out zero in the third, saint in the 2nd.

I'm excited to see both of these Zergs play. ZerO looks like a legit contender these days, and HyuN has been afk for a while after a very promising start to his career last year.
I like both teams so...I'll root for the underdog. WJ fighting!
|
Damnit Sea, pull through for me
|
Here's hoping Woonjing STars won't make it past the combo of Light and Sea. Though free *might* manage to do it. Light's been too strong tvp imo.
|
ZerO > HyuN ZerO > RuBy ZerO > Light ZerO > Sea

Hopefully ZerO wins game one so we can see some intense ZvT's.

Light pushed Jaedong to the brink in their OSL games, I don't think ZerO will win.
Edit: If they do end up playing that is.

Edit: If they do end up playing that is. If Light mechs, he has a definite edge, if he bio's, the ball is in ZerO's court. Since he gets to choose, he'll probably win.

No liquibet for this one?
|
Man Sea is sucking right now and to top it off he always loses to Free, its kinda his stork jr.

Yeah, esp. with Destination and Rush Hour 3 as the #3 and #4 maps it seems almost impossible that ZerO could allkill a team with Sea, Light and Ruby on it.
Random guess:
ZerO > HyuN ZerO < RuBy GuemChi > RuBy GuemChi < Sea Free > Sea Free > Saint
I could very well see Saint beating Free on Andromeda but to be honest I don't have the slightest clue who to expect Woongjin to send as a 4th player so I'll just assume Free will pull it off. Also it's entirely possible they might send a Terran out against RuBy under these circumstances so they either A) don't have to suicide GuemChi or Free into a terran (presumably Sea) on Rush Hour or B) send GuemChi or Free on Rush Hour to probably beat RuBy anyway because let's face it, his TvP is not frightening even given the map imbalance.
We'll see how it pans out I suppose, map order seems like it will be difficult to string together a decent series of wins. Maybe I'm off though.
|
ZerO > Hyun ZerO > Saint ZerO < Light Piano/MVP/Random T < Light Free > Light Free > Pusan/Sea
|
I really doubt Saint would be sent against ZerO, his ZvZ isn't at ZerO's level. I imagine if Free ends up Andromeda Saint will be sent since last time they played he rolled Free there.

I'll live report, but my Internet is unstable around 8:05-8:20 PM around here (when it starts for me), so my reports will be filled with lots of missing information for at least the first game.

Ok, Internet should be up for a while.
Zero is red at 5 o'clock Hyun is green at 1 o'clock
Looks like zero did 12 pool, and Hyun did either overpool/9pool

Zero in red, bottom right, Hyun in green, top right.

Lair going up for Hyun, a bit earlier than Zero's
Lings out for both players
Hyun sending his lings towards Zero's base
Zero making a wall of lings at his main choke

Zero moving out...
BUT AHHH HYUN IS MOVING IN WITH A HUGE AMOUNT OF LINGS, WAAAAY MORE THAN ZERO
HYUN KILLS MOST OF ZERO'S LINGS
HYUN GOING INTO ZERO'S MAIN
|
Hyun's lings just running around, trying to pick off some drones, but Zero manages to drive it off with some fresh lings and drone pulling
|
Hyun's spire already finished, mutas out
Zero putting up a Evo Chamber (his spire is not up yet) for spores
Zero trying to counter with his ling force, but is quickly driven off by mutas and a well-placed sunken
|
Zero is forced to just spore up rather than try to get his spire up first.
|
Zero moving into Hyun's main again with lings, and just loses all of them to the sunk and drones
Mutas force Zero's nat hatch to stop mining
|
Mutas take out Zero's nat hatchery
Zero putting up a Spire behind his minerals
Zero just throwing away more lings into Hyun's main
|
Hyun actually has a very low drone count now, so Zero's lings actually did do quite a lot
Mutas trying to harass the main, but a well-placed Spore is stopping them

Some mutas out for Zero, far less than Hyun's amount
Hyun taking his nat while continuing the muta harass
What? Zero takes out a large chunk of Hyun's muta force with his own mutas.
|
Hyun making more Mutas as well as some Scourge, just leaving them in his main
Zero's muta count is getting pretty high now

Zero has such good muta control.

Zero's Mutas going right for Hyun's nat
The mutas take out some drones, and also some Scourge with some nice micro
It's down to Muta vs Muta now (pretty much even)...... and WOOOW ZERO MANAGES TO TAKE OUT HYUN'S MUTAS

|
Zero is awesome. Realpenguin made it seem like he was way behind, I got on Kinky's VLC link (thanks, by the way!) and I see Zero finishing off Hyun's airforce and winning the game.
|
Damn, Hyun was so far ahead until the ling raids .
|
Wow impressive game by Zero, really looked like he was out of it for a moment there.
|
MBC coaches have the expression on their faces like "How did we lose that one?"
|
YES OGN CHANGED THE SOUNDTRACK FINALLY (at least one song)
MBC IS SENDING OUT SHARK
|
Another Zerg for MBC, I think it's Shark?
|
Shark is probably one of the only people who has comparable mutalisk control to zero.
|
OGN already pimping the Bisu/Stork showdown.

Hey, I've upgraded from a Drone to a Zergling. Exciting.

Shark and not Saint? Is Shark a ZvZ sniper or something? (another question... is that even possible? )
|
|
Zero's muta control is art
|
Saint is ZvP Sniper, Shark ZvZ sometimes ZvT, RuBy TvZ, Han PvZ.

Ok, the soundtrack is still the same (for the most part)
INTRO PLAYED ZERO vs SHARK STARTING! Zero is tan at 5 o'clock Shark is red at 7 o'clock

Zero sending his overlord cross positions
Shark sending his ovie in the right direction to Zero's main
|
Shark scouting correctly, Zero incorrectly.
|
Both are expanding to their nat.
|
Both players doing 12 hatch...
|
Wait, did Shark change his overlord's path before he scouted Zero?
|
wtf what is shark doing with his OL????
|
Shark didn't go all the way to Zero's main... instead he sent his overlord up halfway across the map?!
Pool/gas timings are practically the same for each player
|
|
Lings out at the same time as well
Zero sending another ovie, this time it's going right to Shark's main
Shark sends 1 ling towards Zero's main, sees the scouting ovie
|
Builds seem identical, therefore it should come down to micro, therefore I like Zero to take this.
|
Zero moving out with his lings, at the back entrance of Shark's nat
Shark getting ready to engage
SHARK MOVING HIS LINGS TO THE BACK, READY TO FLANK ZERO'S LINGS

ZERO TRYING TO ENGAGE, BUT THE FLANK COMES IN AND ZERO IS FORCED TO BACK OFF
Zero gathering lings at his nat choke
Shark's lings chilling out near the middle of the map

just a little nitpick at the 'results'
Set 1 ZerO < Colosseum II > HyuN Set 2 ZerO < Neo Harmony > Set 3 < Destination > Shark[gm]

Shark sending his lings back to his nat
Zero moving out with even more lings
MUtas out for Shark

Light is not going mech!
EDIT: He doesn't have his gas yet, which is awfully late for a mech build. He might go 1rax CC into mech or something instead, though.

Rush Hour 3 = sacrifical Terran for Stars?

Light's been reading our strat forum hehe. Using the same build that anotherday and merz made fpvods for. 2 rax tech.
Light's tvz is fun to watch.
|
Super Terran is back folks.
|
I can't even really pinpoint where Zero lost that one. His micro wasn't as good as usual, but I don't feel like Light did anything special (correct me if I'm wrong).
|
|
Sacrifical GuemChi instead of throwing out a random Terran.
|
Can anyone explain why zero skipped upgrades? I don't think he even put down an evo chambr, was he hoping for a surprise defiler + lurker timing win? I did hear the commentors say eee han timing a lot, but that could've been for light.

Well, that's for sure. I had seen about 3 Vessels floating around and then all of a sudden there's like 8 at Zero's nat.

they will send out Free. No way in hell will they send out GGPlay on Medusa again to get raped like last time. Maybe even MVP.

In possibly the least surprising move ever, the Stars indeed go with Free.

There's nothing wrong with GGPlay, but it's against a T on Medusa.

Free, maybe, maybe not. GGPlay, yes they could, easily. GGPlay isn't that great right now.

I think Light will either go for 2 fact, or thinking that free will think he will go 2 fact go some eco-heavy build.

I dunno, Free is kind of inconsistent, off and on. I think if he wins the first game, he'll have the boost to finish it.

Light with 1 tank out, taking out the scouting probe
Free moving into Light's nat with a zealot and goon, but luckily siege-mode just finished researching, forcing the goons back

FREE PRESSURING LIGHT'S NAT WALL WITH GOONS
SCVS GOING TO REPAIR IT
YAHHHH NICE SCARAB ON THE REPAIRING SCVS, TAKING OUT ABOUT 5-6
|
Ugh, that attack was ill-advised.

Light trying to rebuild his wall, but is quickly broken down again by soem goons
The goons are taken out shortly after by some fresh tank/vult
Templar ARchives up for Free, and Stargate going up as well! Fast arbs!

Was that a 9 kill vulture?
|
Light lost about 8-10 scvs from Reaver.
Free losing some goons carelessly, but Free took 1.

reaver gets taken out at lights nat, free wanters in again with dragoons, but i think that hes being too aggressive. (free is being two agressive
adding stargate, and another 2 gates to bring total up to 7
6 tanks for light
|
Jesus Free is soooo aggressive, mustve been the energy drinks.
|
Arbiter Tribunal going up for Free (in his min only)
Light mining up his min only
Light adding an Armory

I think I just counted 7 factories for Light.
And, he's pushing.

7 fact for light as well, and now free is trying to get arb tech and enough goons before the big push. light preparing for arb tech with spidermines, arbiter tribunal is almost done
light ist starting to push out

Light pushing out with some tank/vult, just sieging up outside his nat
Arbiter Tribunal is done, Stargate is flashing

light,'s going to have a hard time moving across the center of the map, and free is trying to show as strong of an army as possible so that light dosen't decide to move out.
light sneaks some vults out, and it's going to scout the fourth.
|
Light trying to runby some vults to one of Free's bases, but quickly gets taken out by some nearby goons
Free's getting in position to engage the tank/vult with a lot of goons

Ok what was that suicide move by Free
|
WHOA FREE MOVING IN ALREADY WITH ZEAL/GOON TOWARDS THE SIEGED TANKS OUTSIDE LIGHT'S NAT
Ouch, blue goo everywhere, Free forced to back off
Light continuing the push
|
United States17042 Posts
light has about a control of tanks now, unsieges, but then free tries to break the push. it's not going to be enough however, and fre e is going to be focred to back off. nice rax placement by light, as it's probably what allowed him to defend against that push so easily. second stargate being added for free
|
Hmm, free making some questionable choices; I think Light can win taking this chance.
Arb may be out, but may take some time before it has enough energy.
|
United States17042 Posts
11 gates for free, did i count that right? i guess that's what you can do off of 4 base econ, but light has moved halfway across the map. Free needs to max quiclkly and be able to take down this ball, or else things are going to get ugly. I guess that he's waiting for his first arb, and now he decides to push without it
|
Free just running his goons around, trying to defuse mines
Light attacking Free's 4th at 1 o'clock with a smal lamount of tank/vult
WHOA FREE NOW ATTACKING THE TANK/VULT SET UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MAP
Lots of blue goo again, Free forced to back off again
|
United States17042 Posts
free might just be able to crush this push, but light barely manages to keep the middle of the mpa. free is going to have a really really fast regen rate though, and he needs to make sure that he keeps his fourth, which is right now being assaulted by 2 tanks
|
United States17042 Posts
lots of spider mines, looks like free dosen't have enough obs? wonder why. this first arb is really doing a good job for free and an amazing stasis catches about 7 tanks unable to fire.
|
NOOOOOOOOOO STASIS FOR 5 TANKS!
|
Is that SEVEN units in Stasis?!
|
Arbiter out for Free
Free constantly pumping units from his gates
Free now pushing LIght back along the middle of the map
FREE MANAGES TO STASIS A FAIRLY LARGE CLUMP OF MECH UNITS

Free will probably win like every protoss that's behind randomly does.
|
United States17042 Posts
light is going to try to push to make sure that his 7 tank group dosen't get taken out, and free with no econ damage yet has his 11 gates pumping. Light needs to expand again soon if he wants hope of being able to keep up with this arb tech protoss, but I don't think that he's going to be able to

science vessel out for light, but he's not goingt o have enough units to stop

Light tried his best - the game went back and forth, as each countered each other with expos and good defense/offense.
Light with a little more vults (if he slacked in macro) at mid would've won the game for him.

good stasis, good pushbreak by free, and he delayed light enough in the middle of the map to allow his fourth base and arb tech to get running. You also forget his decent reaver, and his ability to break light's wall.
Light didn't play poorly, free played better.
|
Imba Medusa.
Even though Light defended spectacularly, the huge amount of pressure Free was able to put on him allowed him to run him over.

gg,Free's macro was good but decision making...kinda strange

I don't think it was the map, although it might have played a little bit of a part. I think free wins that game any day of the week.
is that sea being picked?

Free had at a disadvantage until his reaver killed about 8 scvs at nat and pressured there while he took 1.
SEA!

Medusa...is a cruel woman.

And it's Sea, who can't seem to win anything lately.

He didn't get ahead from those attacks that were ridiculous. He got ahead because of Free's REALLY good macro (and securing those bases), and Light completely missed his timing window (WHY DIDNT HE COUNTER ASAP after free wasted his whole army on that push :| That was such a good opportunity to pressure).

I love that allkill graphic with arnold taking out people left and right. No wonder he's the governor of cali

Why would the send Sea on Andromeda vs a P when they have Saint who already demolished Free there, would be playing on a favored ZvP map instead of putting Sea on a favored PvT map?

Is the first game of Ro16 OSL Bisu vs Stork?

he did have a window, but the middle of medusa is really really tough. I'm guessing that he scouted the arb tech, and then was saving the scans so that he didn't see the really really low unit count until too late. Just a guess though, don't rip me apart too hard

Yea medusa is a hard map to play TvP on, but at least in my opinion he should have gone straight for his nat and pressure him like hell. The terrain is really a bottleneck at the nat's so it would have been really good for light :\ Then he could have proceeded to hammer Free's gateway field eventually. The arbs were a threat though but he did have scan I think right? and you need an army to make arbs effective

Because...if Sea wins, he'll probably face GGplay on Chupung-Ryeong, which gives a waaay better chance than Saint vs GGplay. The coach decided that Sea was more safe vs Free/GGplay than Saint would have been. And I agree, ZvZ is a volatile MU and Saint isn't a ZvZ specialist.

Those attacks were blunders, but his macro with 4th base made up for it.
Game went back and forth a lot of times.

Free threw away tons and tons of units early on - but because of Medusa, Light had to defend at way too many locations at once.

sea has control tower and sci facility going up, I guess he's going for a drop and as fast 3/3 upgrades as he can get. 8 gates and arb tech going up for free

free starts building a pylon at the entrance to 9, I guess he's looking to expand and get a third gas just as his arb starts
|
United States17042 Posts
nice timing on that gate, he prevents his probe being sniped at his third. I guess he learned his lesson from playing leta on collessum 2 (that game was epic)

Free breaking down the Power Generators on his nat cliff
Free walls off his 9 o'clock just in time with a gateway, preventing 3 vults from raiding it
5 facts for Sea, 3 building
Dship also out for Sea, dropping an SCV at the 12 o'clock island

turrets are up everywhere already for sea, and free spots the dropship heading towards 12. Sea is going to take the expansion at 12 with 1 scv.

7 gate for free, not 8, sorry, as a second stargate is building for free. fourth cc is building for sea, I guess he's planning on floating it over to 3 and double expanding, as there's no way he's floating it across the whole map and planning on landing it at either 12 or 1

Sea has mines on the top-left expos

Free's macroing a flood of zealots, moving out across the map...
Sea tries some vult harass in free's nat, stopped by cannons.
|
United States17042 Posts
first arb is now out for free, and that's a really really zeal heavy army for free.
free is going to scout the attempted expansion at 3 from sea, and sea is going to push out right as free moves out from his nat. there must have been a good lucky comsat from sea that we didn't get to se
sea is forced to lift his cc from 3, as free's whole army is there now. free also manages to snipe the cc, sea is in trouble
|
Free moving out with a large amount of zealots and a few goons to the new 3 o'clock expo
The CC is lifted almost as soon as it landed, and is actually picked off by Free's goons
Arb out for Free

ZEALOTS EVAPORATING
TANKS DOING SIMILARLY
Free pulls out and calls it even.

Man, Sea is really struggling lately...
|
United States17042 Posts
sea is slowpushing to his third, which works pretty well. free now also has the base at 11, and free is macroing off of 7 gate still? he must have must maexed, as he runs into sea's spread out army with 1a2a3a4a, and then backs off after not allowing sea to slowpush to his third. sea still has his island expansion at 12 though
|
Free moving in, trying to attack Sea's set up outside of his nat
Free gets a stasis off on 2 tanks, but is forced away
Free trying to take the top-left expos, but the mines are in the way
|
Sea is getting ready for a recall, setting up a large amount of turrets and mines at his main

United States17042 Posts
emp is researching for sea, and free is maxed and expanding again, basically waiting for sea to decide to push out.
Someone needs to tell sea that he's not flash, and his 3/3 push isn't going to end up working as well lol
|
Free moving into Sea's tanks at the nat again
Free getting some nice storms off on the tank/vult
Free now heading back a little bit and taking out the 3 o'clock expo

Free pushes the nat choke again, storm and stasis everywhere, Sea's units collapse.
Free takes the 3 oclock.

free is playing ruthlessly right now! Any time Sea gets close to claiming that 3:00 expo, free rushes in with a massive army and retains map control.
|
United States17042 Posts
psistorms go off, and sea is for some reason only at 2/1 if i can read correctly. sea's fourth island expansion is going to get sniped again by about 10 goons, and free must be really low on unit count, as i don't see that many units running around the map.
free is triple expanding, both at the 11 base and also at the 1 base.
|
Free taking 3 bases at the top-left, and 1 base at the top-right
Free's 2 stargates are still flashing

Wait hold on...does free not know Sea has 12:00? lol!

Free expanding like crazy.
|
Free's army just chilling out along the top-right of the map
Top-right expo is raided by vults, taking out all the probes there
Free sending some goons and arbs to defend it
|
United States17042 Posts
free has about 4 mining bases, and with his triple expand he's planning on going up to 7 bases, probably with 4 still mining.
sea scouts the 1 oclock expansion, and free is basically slowly building up arbs.
free tries to drop 4 zeals on the 12 expansion, but he's going to be unsuccessful, as about 5 turrets at 12 are going to manage to take it down.
free is forced to move his army to 1 to defend, which allows esea to finally take the 3 expansion

with one zealot.
one zealot with about 2 hp and full shields. Which lost to a mob of scared SCVs.
Free drops the 12 again, disables it.

Wow, where'd all those tanks come from?
|
United States12607 Posts
Sea begins to move up the right side of the map but.....holy fuck that is a lot of Stasis.
|
United States17042 Posts
arb recall, but for some reason he only chooses to recall 3 zeals and dragoon. I think he's going to be able to take out the base with that, and he must have had a ton of energy by then anyway
sea moves out with his force, trying to push towards 1 to make sure free can't take it. The next 5 minutes of the game depends on this, and free just stasised about 40 supply of units
|
United States17042 Posts
those stasis's are amazing, he actually got like 1.5 controls of tanks
|
|
STASIS EVERYWHERE
Majority of Sea's tanks are stasis'd. Free trades his remaining army for Sea's remainders, gets his arbs EMP'd. Free pulls out.

How much mineral do you guys think Free has lol

and now free is mining from his orignal nat, his main, the main at 1, and the main, nat and 3rd at 11.
|
WHOAAA FREE GETTING SOME INSANE STASIS OFF ON SEA'S TANKS
WHOAAA SEA GETTING SOME INSANE EMPS OFF ON FREE'S ARBS
Free doesn't really move in after getting the stasis, instead he falls back and tries to reinforce his army
|
Free has so many expansions.
|
Sea's hope's is either Free making a blunder or finishing map until resources are mined out.
|
Free might be maxed out on nearly all probes.

he's probably thinking about killing off probes just to get more supply to defend against the push. He's also choosing to go with a lower arb count, again, to try to prevent what happened in him v leta

this is so sad.. going to be another year of Protoss.

|
United States12607 Posts
Sea really needs to work on getting off some good EMPs, right now he can't do anything due to Stasis.
However, Sea has solidified control of 3:00. They're now battling over the top right expos, where free has expanded but doesn't have many probes yet.
|
Free attacking the tank/vult again with zeal/goon + arbs, stasising the tanks again
Free given a lot of room to keep attacking, looks like he's going right for the 3 o'clock expo again
Sea prevents free from attacking 3 o'clock by sieging some tanks outside
|
United States17042 Posts
alright, and more stasis goes off, but not as good this time, as free only manages to get about 8 tanks in 3 different stasis. Free is looking to take out sea's third, but he is unsuccessful.
sea is still in this game, but he's hanging on barely. does anyone know what the 12 expansion looks like?
|
Sea's hope is SC crashing and the KeSPA guys deciding on a regame.
|
United States17042 Posts
free is basically rallying units wherever he wants them to fight, and he has enough gates and expansions so that he can probably just keep overrunning seas production.

A lot of blue goo, but those stasis is raping SEA.

Or having free get up, strech for 3 minutes, and then come back and decide to not macro. Actually, even that might not win it for him >>>

actually, sea looks like he's going to be able to defend the 1 main if he plays his cards right, which could make this game last for longer. I would be really curious to see what the supply numbers look like right now (as well as the min/gas numbers)

sea's macro is much much better than free's, but i don't think that's going to help sea very much.
I don't think sea's upgrades are even full, can anyone see that?
free runs in to the 3 expansion, forces sea to lift. It all comes down to if sea can hold the main+nat+expansion of 1, but it dosen't look good

And sea gg's after losing the nat at 1...I hope...wtf is he doing. free is pumping more arbs, and more units, but I don't think it even matters. Free is now aloso attacking into sea's main, becuase he just has enough units to be able to atk move at 3, 1 and 5 at the same time
sea gg's

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yeah free!
That ending was pretty awesome to watch, where he basically simultaneously shut down all the expos.

That was stupid. I don't think any Terran in history or the future could have won that.

lower mins, etc. I'm using the smallest definition of macro possible, which is keeping your min count low, and your facts operational at all times. Sea was doing that better than free, but that's 'cuase free was maxed and sitting around waiting for sea to do something

All protosses macro is really really really good these days. The thing that differentiates free this time is that his decisionmaking (taking out 3, expanding, when to defend, how to keep up, etc) was basically perfect.

Id say L'Enfant is in a terible slump BUT HE ALWAYS LOSES TO FREE ANYWAYS. Ah well that was quite painful to watch.

Even though Light defended spectacularly, the huge amount of pressure Free was able to put on him allowed him to run him over. I don't think it was the map, although it might have played a little bit of a part. I think free wins that game any day of the week. is that sea being picked? it was mostly definitely the map there is no way to efficiently defend shuttle play on a map with a perimeter that large, and a free double nexus and easy 4 bases doesnt exactly hurt. I guess being greedy and taking two expos super fast like that doesn't help? got a better counter to double nex? ya if you play more conservative you wont take as much damage from reaver harass, but you'll get your third as their fourth finishes and arbiters are on the way. gl with that.

It probably depends on your definition of macro. Yeah, he got a lot of units out, but he was on 8 bases. He probably could've ended the game a lot sooner with the potential of units he could've churned out.
That seems like standard fare with Free against Terrans. He expands like crazy, which is sometimes good (like today), but often seems to backfire.

against fantasy or leta (someone with really good vulture harass/control) free gets worked by vult harass, because 12 vult > 2 cannons, and then free is running with 5 nex and about 3 probes at 2 of his nex because of the harass. Sea doesn't have that ability.

Alright, I don't have the power of A+ strategical insight, but Free's haphazard tech switch to Carriers and seemingly imprecise arbiter usage in that game made him look much shakier than he did in this game.
I think the only thing Sea could have done significantly better on is his EMP usage, because Free was so relentless in stasising every single tank cluster ever. And I think that kind of just shows the limit of Sea's multitasking, I guess if he HAD EMPed the Arbiters perfectly, it would have been perhaps the most awesome showcase of vessel vs Arb usage ever (Flash did a really good job vs. Jangbi in Proleague).
But I would definitely say Free showed that he has PvT on Andromeda down to an exact science now, especially since his early harass wasn't as damaging as it could have been.
Not to discredit Free for his incredible play, he is quite monstrous these days.

Thanks for the link, it's an eye-opener

IMO no t in the world can touch free right now.. MAYBE FlaSh, but that's it. Amazing play from free from those 2 games.
oh and I think MBC needs to stop throwing zergs out there.. what about a Ruby - Sea - Light - Pusan line, who's gonna beat that?
edit : I just looked at ruby's recent record.. is this guy in a major slump or something? =\ 3 wins in the last 14 games.. Maybe they don't have a great 4th player then.
