I'm pretty sure progamers are trained to use the build they had planned for each game regardless of what happens in the previous game. Otherwise they'd make too many poor decisions based on emotion.

Completely agree with margarita.

You think so? imo calling this luck is far worse than cheese, the latter at least implied some kind of preparation, luck is just, well, dumb luck. Shit happened and he randomly wins without even having done anything real to merit it.

It's not like savior flipped a coin before the match. It was his plan to go 9 pool, we aren't clear on the reasons behind it. It was fortunate but its not pure luck.

I agree with that, I simply thought that labeling the 9pool as luck makes it appear that he did just flip a coin when this could have been a calculated gamble.

Yes, flash 14cced and gave himself the option of dying to a 9pool.

btw even funnier, last msl jaedong beat upmagics 14cc ( i think) with a 9pool

9 pool is a safe build imo, total opposite from cheese.

Very anti-climatic =/.

Nice initial scouting overlord, any other position and Up would've probably held.

Savior gets to play ZvZ next round, probably against Yarnc though maybe Zero. He's beaten both lately in meaningful games (not that that means that much in ZvZ). But still, Savior's ZvZ has looked excellent lately (he's #2 ZvZ ELO behind JD of course, and in fact is #4 in versus Z ELO overall).

Savior can definitely make RO4. Best case scenario there is to play ... Luxury? Not that Lux is a pushover by any means but Flash, Leta, Hwasin seem like they would all be the favorites.

Well... UpMagic should know savior isn't afraid of going for 9pools, he went 9pool speed in the first game. That's why this seems pretty dumb.. Didn't he go 14cc in the last game too? I didn't get to watch it, but I think I read so from a LR. I don't know why he would try to 14cc, though... 9pool seemed pretty likely. If it was against someone like GGPlay who always 12hatches, I'd understand and accept it, but vs savior it seems... silly.

I'm pretty disappointed, but at least savior advances. ^_^
