14cc is cheese imo.


14cc is some pretty serious chesse imho. The only difference to a rush-like kind of cheese is, that it actually LOOKS like a straight up game. But really, if the terran is in the last position you scout, you're pretty much done for. You could that 14cc if it works/is not scouted, is the "safest" cheese of all.

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. ^_^

I think Up's reasoning went like this:
People tend to play standard in the last match. They tend to go for the most reasonable builds and hope that they will outplay their opponent.
Now Savior's most comfortable build has historically been 12 hatch->3 hatch muta. It wasn't stupid for Up to expect this kind of play out of Savior. Thus he wanted to eek out an advantage with 14CC, especially since it was a big 4-player map.
Savior's mentality was different. By playing 9pool, he was able to be safe and also control the pace of the game. Knowing that Up would expect a 12 hatch, he also hoped to be facing a super greedy build. 9pool wasn't even a gamble for MJY. It was a smart way of either getting an easy win or a low-risk opening.



9pool is a pretty terrible opening against 1rax cc (done correctly)

BOs are never luck... map positions, however, are. I think Savior would have won even if it had been cross-positions, though.

Game 2 wasn't as one-sided as you think. It really came down to a timing window as Up couldn't allow Savior enough time to get the muta mass going. Even with a 14CC it's damn near impossible to stop a 2 gas Zerg from having map control (unless your name is Fantasy,Flash or Hwasin)

It's okay, anti-fans, savior will get raped by ANY one of the other three. lol

I was just thinking how lucky savior is having to play against up, instead of the other six


And Flash would have gotten boned by Up. He's lucky he's playing Leta. :p

(P)Bisu


I think Flash is ahead for all the games he has played so far this month and the quality

Bisu won GOM against arguably the #2 PvP player and advanced from his OSL group, beating July.

Flash has been raping the shit out of proleague but was eliminated from his OSL group.

Edge Bisu.

Lets not forget that Bisu was eliminated from his MSL group.

True, although I'm assuming that was taken into account in the current PR.

If game 2 had been a little closer I think it would feel a little different. If game 2 hadn't been so one-sided the reaction probably would have felt more like "Savior scout hax, perfect build, vintage Maestro mind games" but man, game 2 makes it really hard to feel that way.


True that, it's like savior didn't deserve his win.


Lemme put it this way - I'm REALLY REALLY HAPPY that Savior is still in a Starleague. I mean, he hasn't been in RO8 in over a year, right? Coming into tonight, if you had told me Savior advances I would have said "I'll take it, any way I can get it" especially given how good his ZvZ has been lately. But wow, I could never have imagined this, haha.

Now what would really make me happy is a Flash win, then later an epic Savior Flash RO4 matchup in which my head explodes (gotta root for Savior, but man do I love Flash).

Flash is still pissed from losing to both Best and Upmagic last night. He is so going to run Leta over. Well, we'll see.
