Much is back!!!!! I missed grandpa toss. But he's going to be facing Reach and Anytime, my other favourite protosses.
And a big wtf at Oz using a zerg who isn't Jaedong. Wow.

Due to SKT being pretty toss heavy, they figured that it was likely that they would put a toss out on a map like Andromeda, especially when you have such a strong macro toss like BeSt. So they got their 2nd zerg player (i guess this ggaemo guy) to go out on that map to take advantage of the Z>P of Andromeda, while not using Jaedong because it would leave him open to T>Z and P>Z sniping on the follow 2 maps of Chupung and Colleseum.
Thats why theres some relative nobody playing.

You don't snipe Jaedong with a Protoss, that's insane. I give you the Terran though.
So let's see, ZerO has a good chance to do some damage and so does Jangbi, again a few teams are putting out their heavy hitters that actually have teams that can back them up. Lol poor Oz and KTF are one hit wonders.

just remember, people made the same jokes when best started his career 1-0 PvP. He went on to start 16-0 in that matchup.
hahaha
exactly the same thing happened to savior before the infamous MSL finals. Bisu was just some nobody who no one was quite sure how he had gotten that far, going on vacation when he should be practicing, against the very best player at that time.
not saying that ggaemo is going to develop into the next best or bisu, but don't get complacent

Anyone know the current standings?

p.s. pvp fans die please

Haha, I'm not really a fan of PvP either, but I don't mind it, and the fact that it's Much/Reach makes up for anything that it's lacking. Much is my favorite player, and ACE is my favorite team, so I'm pumped.

eStro tricked Stars! Stars sent their TvT sniper for Chupung Ryeong thinking they were going to get a TvT from map imba.

Oz has Forgg and Hiya who actually win games, especially forgg if he breaks out of his rut. KTF has Flash and some crappy zerg whose name escapes me. Dont be suprised if you see the return of 815.

Man, what happened to ToSky? He just...evaporated..

I would guess he's not interested anymore since they have Jaedong now. Fun fact: ToSky has the third highest ZvT ELO right now.

oDin all kill gogogo!
|
ZerO JangBi and go.go all Kill to help me break top 100 fantasy proleague.
Actually I just realized that JangBi 3kill and Jaedong reverse all kill would be even better.

Omg much is playing. And so is reach. Some decent games, nothing like last week though.
CJ FIGHTING!!!

faulty memory
oh well
point is don't judge a player just because he hasn't played many games (which was a semi-joke post to begin with, so I have no idea why people are so jumpy today)

you just say this cause you know it ain't gonna happen.

Reach beating 2 zergs in a row, is a bit much, let alone 2 good zergs. I would like to see Casy vs Savior and/or effort though.

BeSt has to play a Zerg? Again? Jesus...I yearn for the good old days when he just whipped Protosses and Terrans on Colosseum every match.

This is exactly why I can't bring myself to dislike best. He's just so hopeless vs zerg, it's tragically hilarious.
And the games he DOES win he does it with ooooodles of units! It's great!

I just love what July did to Best. Before that OSL final, people thought Best was solid/great on all MUs. Then came the 3-0 and the mindrape that carries over to this day. Ahaha, July's awesome.

PIANOROLLLLLLL. On the other hand I predict a horrible choke and a BO loss in the 1st match.

Haha, I agree. I'd really like to see his PvZ improve because I think it's the only thing keeping him from a Starleague (quite literally, when you consider his performance in EVER08). However, he is just a fun player to watch, win or lose.
The question is always: can his ridiculous macro make up for his generally awful micro? Do Jaewook is brute force StarCraft at its best.

Oh come on, this is complete bullshit. "Everyone" has always known that PvZ is far and away BeSt's worst matchup - he commented on it in all of his OSL interviews leading up to that final with July. In fact the leading argument of people who thought BeSt would lose to July was "well, BeSt is the all-around more solid player right now, but his PvZ is simply not up to the task".
BeSt's PvZ does not suffer from "mindrape", in fact it's improved drastically since EVER08 - even if it doesn't show in game results, BeSt has much better decision making and timing in his PvZ games these days than he did a year ago. Lately he's had to fight a bit uphill against map imbalance, but that's not really an excuse - PvZ remains his clearly inferior matchup.
The point here is that July didn't somehow curse BeSt's PvZ, it's always been bad but it has in fact improved since that historic final.

LOL people thrashing best. The guy is still young in terms of peak level, his pvz can become a lot better and his pvp and pv t are SS Class.

ForGG has been non existent this WL season and Hiya either wins 3/all-kills or does nothing. Oz depends on Jaedong to be their anchor heavily, not as heavily with Flash and KTF but heavy enough.
