LOL NICE PICS! <3
Was missing PL live report threads too... finally, time to LR tomorrow mehehe.
GO FBH :D
Edit: First to vote "I cheer for Khan".
|
Zero vs Stork on Heartbreak Ridge is going to be fucking amazing. Mark my words.
|
WOOT
zero > stork
Khan wins 3-2 on ace match :D
Jangbi ftw!
|
3-0 for Woongjin let's do it!

Cheering for Stork cause he's on my Fantasy =P
|
Samsung Khan all the way, shit this thread is too early it made me think this was today 
|
Wow, what a pimp LR thread. Stars has a shot, it depends if Samsung Khan really thrives under normal PL conditions or if they're actually minislumping.

fbh, stork and khan must win for the sake of my fantasy team.
|
Really looking forward to Stork v Zero on Heartbreak Ridge.
|
The Stars don't just have "a shot", these matchups line up very well for Stars. I think GGPlay's experience will carry him in the ZvZ despite his recent slump, especially since Juni's ZvZ looked thoroughly unimpressive against Orion in GOM. Free shouldn't have much problem with Great - Great isn't a bad player, but Free's PvZ is amazing. If it gets there, FBH will probably beat MVP even though he's also been slumping lately. I wish the Stars had sent Piano there.
I think this match really hinges on the Zero/Stork match. Their match in WL was memorable...Stork got a huge lead and threw it away, leading to an epic January facepalm. If Zero wins, Stars should take this 3-0. If Stork wins, the match should go to Ace, where it will likely be Zero vs. JangBi since Free's PvP is far too suspect and Khan will almost certainly be sending Stork or JangBi. Unfortunately, if Zero already lost to Stork, it's probably not one of his better days and he'll probably lose Ace match as well.
So in conclusion...I'll just repeat what someone else already said. Stars 3-0 or Khan 3-2, most likely.

This way seems to have worked out better for them. Zero has a far better chance against Stork than GGPlay does in his current form.

Haha i love stork's picture. :3

Drinking with his silver buddy Fantasy? Either that, or perhaps the maps really do dislike protosses this round as players alluded to.
|
Jangbi is probably preparing for the Ace match. Free and Zero are the only ones that would probably sent out and Jangbi would be the favorite vs both tbh.
And the map looks pretty balanced tbh except for maybe TvZ (favors Zerg because of a safe fast 3 gas) and PvT (fast 3 gas for P would do well vs Terran I think). So I really can't imagine FBH/Piano being sent out. Stork is a possibility but since Jangbi is the odd man out of the Samsung trio I'd imagine he'd be it?
|
RP knows what's up. Keepin it real gangsta.
|
Hm...I don't think MVP and Firebathero will play. One sided rape! Gogogo!
|

I'll be happy as long as  GGPlay and  Stork wins.
So I predict 3-1 to Khan.
|
I predict 3-0 for Stars
|
Zero and Stork are so similiar ;D
|
Why oh why did I vote KHAN on Liquibet, the Stars have a good shot of taking this 3-0.
Battle Royale was looking like a zerg map so both teams gayed up and decided to start PL with a zvz, but that's fine with me. I'm figuring GGPlay over Juni won't be a major surprise.Stork showed really good pvz lately (OSL and the race battle) so he might or might not win against Stork.
free's pvz is amazing. Not Bisu-ish but fucking solid so I'm seing him win over by.great. Even if I hate FBH, he's better than  MVP, or atleast that's how I see it.
My Point is, the whole series might be decided by ZerO vs Stork. If ZerO win, I predict 3-0 for the Stars, if not, 3-2 for KHAN.
|
Nice OP! Very nice :D
This can go either way..

Lackingly missing Jangbi for some odd reason. Unless the maps are just toss graveyards, I just don't see the reason why Jangbi isn't in the lineup.

OK, Ace.. but maybe Khan wont hace the chance to get the Ace much. Really I feeel Juni and great will lost, and Stork has been into a slump lately, so I can consider ok if Khan ca get into the Ace match

GGPlay and Juni look like they are going out on a date.

Where as Stork looks like he is about to pounce ZerO and eat him.
Well hopefully just eat him.

Juni Yellow left, GGPlay (red) right.
EDIT: I guess obs didn't change colors.
GGPlay's real color is brown.

Wow, really short base distances. Overlords halfway to enemy bases already.
Hehe, game lagged a bit in the FPview.

Wow they are pretty close to each other, position wise.

Don't forget the Troy style blocks available. If you break them, it's actually a very long ground distance that you have to break neutral buildings for.
Same build by both, pool and gas.

I was really counting on GGPlay to win this game, this looks bad for Stars now.

STORK BRINGS HIS LAST FEW UNITS TO INTERCEPT THE ELEVATOR, AND HE TAKES OUT A GOOD CHUNK OF HYDRAS
UNFORTUNATELY, ZERO IS RIGHT UP IN STORK'S GRILL WITH HYDRALURK, TAKING OUT A LOT OF GATEWAYS
ZERO TRIES TO ATTACK 7 O'CLOCK AS WELL, BUT STORK'S ARMY WAS RIGHT THERE READY TO DEFEND
|
|
|
Looks like Stork is only mining off 1 base, and Zero is still producing a bunch of hydralurk
Hydralurk moving to Stork's 7 o'clock, but Stork is on the highground, ready to defend
Stork forces Zero's army back with ease
WHOA ZERO DROPS 7 O'CLOCK WITH LURKS AND TAKES OUT ALL BUT 5 PROBES
|
It's like lurkers mean nothing to Stork.
|

Cut the caps :/
Stork running off of one base, Zero doesn't have very many resources either.
Again, a low-eco game, just as I predicted
Hydralurk moving out against Stork's zealgoon/archon/templar. Stork gets off some beautiful storms and decimates Zero's hydras. Zero Lurker drops Stork's third and kills lots of Probes, losing his lurkers.
|
imo it was basic mistake by zero losing his hydralurk army
cant believe he did that lol
|
STORK CHARGING RIGHT AT ZERO'S THIRD, PUSHING BACK THE MAIN ARMY
ZERO GGS
STARS 0-2 KHAN

Wow, totally unexpected.
Zero lost that one huge battle to beautiful storms, which is where he lost it.
|
Man. I thought Zero had that game won and then he just got torn apart by Storms. I hate Psi Storm!
|
Looks like Free will have to save the Stars....again.
|
haha stork pulls one out of his ass
|
never attack with lurkers vs static goon/storm, its just retarded
|
And Stork proves the doubters wrong again .
|
I love you great but i want to see FBH play so lose please

Free winning is quite possible, but MVP beating Firebathero is a bit difficult.
|
It seems like pure hydra attacking on all fronts would have been much more effective.
With some muta to snipe templars from the back.
|
man those storms were sweet

I was also wondering where the Hive tech was at. Really though, this game was decided by that one huge battle in the middle where Zero got destroyed by Storm.

According to the poll in the second post:
FBH doesn't have a chance.
And great should be scared:
+ Show Spoiler +

I hope Free gets contained by lurkers and then busts out with relentless 9gate macro goons...again.
|
Wow. I thought for sure Stork was dead after consistently getting pushed back every time he tries to get out of his base.
But Zero's decision making after his decisive advantage were quite poor. How could he have let Stork get that third?
|
If either Great or FBH win I'm going to feel very good about picking Khan as my fantasy team.
|
Hehehe, Free is carefully polishing his Logitech Mini Optical
This should be a good match. The last time these two met, they had an epic PvZ battle.

he shouldntve made lurkers at all. Fuck, he was going vs goon/ht, he couldve pumped shitton of hydraling and surround that
or camp with lurkers and do a drop like he did later. Wouldve worked either way

Is this by.great, or some other great?

Don't know how Anti-team for Fantasy team works but Zero started pretty good for that :D

I don't know. Hydraling melts into storms just as much as his army makeup.
Personally I just thought he really shouldn't have faced Stork's army head on so much. And instead just expand/starve Stork out. IIRC he attacked Stork's high ground army twice in that game. That's just giving away units.
Anyway, Free always seem to kill Great. So I'm guessing we'll see FBH today.

Standard builds by each. Great scouts for a cannon rush.
Pool first vs. FE.
|
Forge going up for Free
Both players sending their scout to the right base now
Looks like great did a overpool, and he's also putting up a hatch that Free's probe missed
|
Overpool from Z. Forge first from P. Standard so far. Z hides the drone at the nat and gets the expo up out of sight.
|
I like FBH but would never cheer for one of the Khan members to lose. That's just low especially for a fan of Khan.
|
Another hatch going up at great's min only, and it is scouted by Free's probe
Free putting up his Nexus at nat
Great destroying Free's temples
|
3 hatch going on vs forge 2x cannon nexus
|
2 cannons for free before nex. Z making 8 lings and attacking the temple. Getting gas off 2 hatch.

Free ferrying his army up to 12 with his shuttles.
|
ROOOFL GREAT PLAYING SUNKEN DEFENSE, BUT FREE IS JUST FERRYING THE UNITS TO GREAT'S OLD 2 O'CLOCK EXPO
WHY DID YOU WASTE YOUR MINERALS ON THAT CONTAIN
|
Great picks off a shuttle, but is punished hardcore by sairs. Great setting up contain outside of 12, free expanding there.
|
i love you great even if you lose this you got balls!
|
Great can win if he expands EVERYWHERE and starves Free out.
|
GREAT TRYING TO TAKE OUT THE ELEVATOR'D UNITS, BUT FREE WITH SOME NICE STORMS FORCING HIM BACK
FREE ALSO TAKING THE 2 O'CLOCK FOR HIMSELF
|
|
|
Free loses another shuttle, but repels the small attack again. That base now pretty well fortified. Great picks off the obs and templar though. Unable to break the cannons, however.
|
great adaptation by free, or maybe its just common sense..
|
HAHAHAHA GREAT FAILS AN IDLE SHUTTLE SNIPE WITH HIS IDLE SCOURGE
FREE SNIPING A SHITLOAD OF OVERLORDS WITH HIS SAIRS
FREE ALSO FERRYING MORE UNITS OVER TO 2 O'CLOCK, DEFENDING GREAT'S ATTACKS WITH EASE

GREAT TAKES OUT A PYLON POWERING ALL OF FREE'S 2 O'CLOCK CANNONS
FREE MOVES BACK TO A MORE DEFENSIVE POSITION, AND STORMS ONCE AGAIN TAKE OUT GREAT'S ARMY
GREAT TAKING AN EXPO AT 7 O'CLOCK MAIN
|
Free owning up the overlords. Just got 5. Great has taken 9, but with few drones. He attacks into 12 again, but free has a new army there. Great gets the pylon powereing the cannons, but another comes in in time.
|
Lol hallucinating shuttles
|
5 SHUTTLES BEING LOADED WITH A HUGE FUCKING LOAD OF UNITS
FREE FERRYING MORE UNITS OVER AS GREAT TRIES TO ATTACK, FORCING GREAT TO RUN AWAY YET AGAIN
|
|
|
Snipe the observer, come on!
|
Free now up to 6 shuttles. Here comes another assault from great. It's ripped apart by storm and doesn't succeed in stopping the cannons from warping in. More troops coming in. Great has the bottom main.
|
|
|
I'm very impressed by toss. As I always am when I see a player doing something unconvential without sacrificing macro and base placement
|
|
|
great has a big army but its squishy!
FREE NEEDS TO PUSH SOON
|
Free continuing to shuttle troops to 12, tries to move out but great still has a sizeable contain there. Sairs scout out the new expansions, loses one. Free bringing in probes now.
|
Free ferrying more reinforcements to his 2 o'clock base, Great's army chilling right outside of it
Free scouts Great's 7 o'clock main expo with a sair
More units being ferried.... huge army gathered at 2 o'clock for free
And a huge army for Great outside of the 2 o'clock base
|
Free is gonna lose, Great has a buttload of expos...
|
This would be an awesome time to charge the main, actually.
|
omg free puts all his templars (dark light) into shuttles and drops on great's base
|
|
|
Free showing us magic boxes!

massive zergling death by storms looks like free's money is limited tho

FREE MOVING OUT WITH SAIR/SHUTTLE TO GREAT'S MIN ONLY
WHOA HUGE STORM KILLS A HUGE LOAD OF HYDRA/LING DAYUMMMMM
ANOTHER STORM GOES OFF AND GREAT'S ARMY DISAPPEARS AGAIN
FREE'S ARMY IS EVENTUALLY DESTROYED, BUT THE SHUTTLES SURVIVE
|
5 shuttle drop in great's min only. Great moving to defend, but loses a ton of units trying to fight up the ramp. Great will clear it out, but he lost a good bit of army doing it.
|
|
|
|
|
No way Free's gonna win this :/
|
FREE ATTEMPTING TO PUSH HIS ARMY OUT OF 2 O'CLOCK, BUT A HUGE HYDRALURK CONTAIN IS PREVENTING THAT
HYDRAS MANAGE TO SNIPE SOME OBS, AND FREE'S PUSH IS STOPPED
|
Free pushes out now, but the contain is too huge and his goon heavy army is stupid on the bridge. Great now has bottom natural running as well. Free shifting to harass mode. Loses a shuttle at bottom main, but gets off his drop. Takes out the hatch and 2 sunkens.
|
5 SHUTTLE DROP AT GREAT'S 7 O'CLOCK MAIN
FREE ACCIDENTALLY LOSES SHUTTLES TO GREAT'S SPORE
BUT HE STILL MANAGES TO TAKE OUT THAT HATCH IN TIME
|
free kills expo but hes only mining out of 1!

free loses a crap load of shuttles but raiding expos

|
HALLUCINATION ON SHUTTLES LOLZ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
|
Im sure Great has a shitload of resources anyway.
|
This is why PvZ is really really gay...
|
|
|
Free carelessly loses a sair. Great retaking bottom main and the min only there. Free hemmed in on all sides. Another 5 or 6 shuttle drop heading for great's main. No, hallucination! Real drop at the bottom. Picks off the min only, but well defended otherwise, and the shuttles retreat. The army is taken out and the bottom main hatch survives. Don't see how free can win now.
|
HUGE DROP AT 7 O'CLOCK MAIN YET AGAIN, STORMS TAKING OUT GREAT'S DEFENDING ARMY, BUT FREE FAILS TO TAKE OUT THE HATCH
HAHAHAHAHAHA HUGE HALLUCINATION ARMY, AND ABOUT 6 ARCHONS MORPHING
FREE HAS FEW RESOURCES LEFT
|
|
|
FREE ATTEMPTING TO SCARE GREAT INTO GGing WITH MASS SHUTTLES
HAHAHAHAHAA

Free making pure templar. Defilers for great. Shuttles headed both directions, some hallucinations. Real drop is an archon drop in the main, that's pretty small. Doesn't do much, cleared out easily.
|
4 ARCHONS DROPPED IN GREAT'S MAIN
AND A HUGE HYDRALING FORCE CLEANS IT UP

Free trying to break out from 12 now, picking off lurkers, and loading up zeal/temp/archon into shuttles in his main. Drops off at 12. Looking to make one final attack I guess. Ferrying his remaining units over to 12.

Never mind, those zealots are real!
FREE DROPPING HIS LAST UNITS ONTO 2 O'CLOCK

Wow. That was the most entertaining game I've seen in a while.
This is why new maps are always cool. You get to see some weird stuff on it. I actually thought Great lost when Free got his 4th. But in the end the contain was more powerful than I thought.

Stork is terrible in the Winners league but he is great in the proleague. He is going to rape this season.

I love how this went completely against everyone's predictions. Khan in PL format is god mode. No team is as prepared for their match-ups as they are. I don't know how they do it, but they do. Plus, they have Jangbi who's invincible in ace matches unless he has to play Bisu I guess.
