Well...in the new 2-match PL Playoff format, winning an ace game isn't so important — as a determinant of which team will advance, the 7set doesn't matter more than any of the 1-6th sets.

Leta vs. Movie. This is really what team depth is all about.

It's not like the CJ coach didn't know that, if it went to an Ace match, that Sparkyz would put Leta up. It's assumed. Now, he could put some obvious choice up, like Effort, SkyHigh, or even Kwanro. But he picked Movie.

Before the first game even started, apparently.

Why? Because Leta wouldn't expect it. Leta would be practicing for TvZ or TvT, not TvP. And even though Leta came within a hair's breath of winning, he didn't. That extra little bit of not practicing, plus Movie doing nothing but preparing for this game vs. Leta, was the difference maker.

Well that, and Movie having balls of solid marble. That always helps.

What? Why wouldn't they expect them to send out a toss when Letas weakest match-up by quite a margin is TvP.

But seeing the map's stats, I'm pretty sure Hite (and Leta) expected a Protoss, but not Movie. Most likely Much.

definitely one of the most epic tvps ive ever seen. of course it was made more epic by the fact that it was the ace match and a huge match in general.
I'd love to hear the story behind Movie's demotion to the B team, cuz clearly he is one of the best players in the house or he wouldn't be used as much as he is against Hite in thew playoffs. So i'm guessing it was something non related to his skill -_-;
