I know, I was just being provocative. Violet has been playing much much better than Bisu recently though.

No one doubt's bisu's skills, but his overconfidence has been killing his games lately.

Umm, Violet had the 2nd lowest ELO before he exploded suddenly and went on his streak. Bisu IS still the best P of all time and best toss right now, everyone goes on streaks. Wait till Violet performs in indivduals before calling him the best of the best. PL just isnt enough.

people calling bisu build all in which it was but he needed those 3 goons and 1 zealot and the all in wouldve work or atleast do more damage

At least Bisu hasnt have to play all his games in the group in one day. I have zero doubt if it was the case he would be already out of the tournament just like last MSL. Get yourself together man and win it all this season <3

What made that smart, is gogo knew the dt would mean late ob. So he could be confident his build wouldnt be scouted until too late.
If an mnm timing push gets scouted early T is fucked. Smart play.

Yeah, this I do agree! I almost regret bringing ELO into the discussion because anyone who has watched Violet play (and I've seen almost all of his games lately) can tell you that he has been playing extremely solid Starcraft. He's been doing everything a good Protoss player should be good at in PvZ and PvP - I wish we could see some PvT which in some ways is the "most different" of the three PvX matchups.

it's not called "six deep", it's called "Deep Six" which is a euphemism for killing somebody -_-
people should do more research
...well i guess you cant really research that, but yeah it's called Deep Six

So . . . was that CC bm or is there a reason for doing that?

He wanted to expand to Bisu's natural after killing the nexus in order to consolidate his economic advantage.

When Terran's push is succeeding, it's often a good idea to take a 3rd.
