i was thinking the same thing while watching the game

Was i the only one but when hwasin moved out to hold the center and took his two mineral expos the tank line doesnt it remind you of a specific scene in a highlight video?
The nada highlight video that xellos_pluto made. The scene of Nada vs Nal_ra on gaema gowon where nada has this huge line of tanks.

Love tornado terran.

It's a weird thing when Kal is the only player on STX to lose his game.

This is like saying Yarnc is good at ZvP if you take away his games against Stork and Jangbi(combined 2-14 against the two)

Actually, that's more or less true, so I'm not sure what your point is...

Not that Yarnc's actually good at ZvP, don't get me wrong, but it's not like he's really bad at it - not like Casy or FBH or even Boxer's problems with TvP.

Yarnc's recent ZvP have been very facepalm worthy.

Just finished watching them. Homai Gahd. That Bisu vs Hwasin game was so good. I havn't seen scvs stasised before. Rarely do you get a map-spanning tank line for like 20 minutes plus. Two starved players playing so well all over the map in the late-late-game. It was incredible. One of the best games to watch (probably not the best displays of skill) of this year!

And the outcome? See that icon at the bottom right of my post?

YES!!!

EDIT: BTW, I went from like 150 or so to 45 in LB last night for underdog bets. Woot.

STX wasn't that big of an underdog.

The only *special* thing was that Hwasin beat Bisu, the rest?

The surprising thing is that STX managed to win whiteout Kal winning, Bisu losing and winning before the Ace match.

Bisu vs Hwasin
Game of the day! It was epic. It was difficult to see would win in the end. Even though Hwasin had a bigger army, Bisu had aribiters. 2-3 more zealots could had meant Bisu won the final battle. Bisu's usage of the statis to stall for mining time was brilliant. If he was able to get 1 more statis inorder to get more minerals, Bisu might had won the final battle.

Fantasy vs Kal
Dominating. Against a Dragon too! Expect to see other Terran copy Fantasy's opening build on this map. When Kal finally broke the back door contain, he sacrifice a lot of units to do so. Why don't more terran build bunkers? The damage they do are worth it against a small size Protoss army.
