I say this is karma striking back at Hite in the face, since they did more BM than CJ in this series

Details pls!

CJ had 1 proxy CC, and 1 thumbs down ceremony as far as I know (both coming from Skyhigh lol)
Hite had 2 proxy CCs and 1 thumbs down ceremony I think

Im not sure really, I think theres more

Do you realize how hard it is to lose the build order rock paper scissors, and then win, versus an incredible ZvZer like Yarnc?

11pool is not a BO win vs 12 hatch.



The guy said 9 pool in the post so I think thats why everyone was like :'(

12 hatch can't keep his nat on a 2 player map vs 9 pool. Even overpool. wait. check vod tmw to confirm.

This was an awesome and epic end to a nice series.

And Crunchums: Yarnc went overgass then pooled after so Effort was perfectly fine with 12hat. =p

I wouldn't say yarnc was ahead because of the build order, he killed one drone while Effort secured his natural. And Yarnc's zvz is far from incredible, he's pretty good, but not even close to JD or Effort.

Serious? He's won the majority of his encounters with EffOrt. He's beaten Jaedong. He's pretty good ZvZ.

Add losing to Hyuk and Roro to that and you get a pretty inconsistent zvz, not enough to be called incredible.

As a neutral fan, I think the following format would make most sense:
Treat the two bo7 + possible super ace as a BO 15. In other words, the team with 8 wins advances.... so there should be one more ace

I agree with this. It's stupid that both teams won an equal amount of games, yet CJ go through. Retarded.

How boring would a BO15 be, seriously.

These super ace matches are INTENSE! Nothing more exciting than that. And yes, I would say that regardless of whether CJ or some other wins.

What a game. This new style of using spores and zerglings to counter 1 hatch muta is really interesting, yet so risky. YarnC's biggest mistake came when he tried to force his lings into Effort's main. Throwing away those lings caused him to lose drones, which made him use his mutalisk in a defensive manner when he should be pressuring EffOrt (if he didn't lose the sunken he probably would have stayed ahead). But yea, that was definitely a close match.

This format is great. Teams with a lot of depth get an opportunity to win two BO7s, and teams that are more star-heavy can aim for the split and the ace match. It's no gimme that a deep team can pull out both BO7s, and it's no gimme that a superstar can pull out an ace match (honestly each of the four remaining teams has at least one superstar who can hold his own against any other player in the world). It's really a great format.

lol
first off gas before pool will not allow u to kill 12 hat, its virtually impossible. Even overpool can be defended, not talking about gas before pool

then firstborn said yellow isnt as good zvz as JD or effort, youre horribly wrong

spores/lings vs 1 hat muta isnt anything new, this is the only way to defend if you expanded, classic. Plenty of replays out there
Can someone ban this guy please? FA?

If it were the other way around, the whiners wouldn't be saying anything.

The format reminds me of my friend's tennis league. It's basically two sets and if tied, it goes to a winner takes all single game. Netting the individual games of the two games and taking the total is just stupid talk.
