Yeah, if Iris was any good he'd have recent wins against people like Bisu and Effort.... oh wait.

Iris is the fucking man, and is easily an A-class terran right behind Flash and Fantasy.
May the BeSt man win.

Right now I'd put Iris on par with go.go. Both excel in strategies who can easily gets raped in straight-up games.

He was in trouble once he decided to go with the 1-Fact into expansion build. That's the type of BO Flash should use, not Iris.

I love you oz thx for the hilarious trashing of cj.

Always feels good when the team/player with some of the most rabid/obnoxious fans takes it up in the bum by the underdogs.

Ofcourse there is always day 2 but does anyone honestly belive that cj got someone whos capable of taking jaedong in super ace?

I just watched the games. I have to say that Oz certainly didn't steal any wins. They just outperformed CJ. If they take the second series tonight, it is a fully earned victory.

Of course, I'm hoping that CJ pulls off one of their regular comeback victories.

O, and Jaedong looked fucking scary against Effort there. That death glare was one thing, but right alongside that was the fact that every single Zergling Effort sent out just melted to Jaedong's micro. It was painful, but awesome at the same time. I wish he was on CJ so that I didn't feel conflicted every time I watched him dominate somebody from the team.
Think. :)

I really think this will be hard to watch. I'll see what I can do.
Maybe I'll just watch the SkyHigh one.

It depends. Game 1 was an interesting excercise in two players cheesing at each other, failing their respective cheese, then devolved into Lomo failing.

Game 2 was rape. If you like to see Jaedong in Jaedong Smash! mode, there you go. BTW, Jaedong sports his "look of death", so avoid it if you want to avoid being killed by his stare.

Game 3 was kinda nice. Hiya had a good play against Movie (alternative interpretation: Movie decided to clump all his arbiters together to make it easier for Hiya to EMP them in one shot), then Movie got rolled up like a scroll.

Game 4 was a textbook example of a prepared snipe build. He struck exactly at the right place, right time, with the right units, and a strong display of his Reaver micro skills. Iris was dead before he knew what hit him.

Game 5 was a textbook example of a noob getting cheesed.

It depends on what you like to see. Game 3 went on for a while, but Movie's stupid Aribter play screwed up any hope for "epicness". None of the games were epic by any definition, but if you like early-game shenanigans (and I know I do), you'd be happy with several of these games.
So you know, cats are interesting. They are kind of like girls. If they come up and talk to you, it's great. But if you try to talk to them, it doesn't always go so well. - Shigeru Miyamoto

Considering how much more time seeded teams have to practice than their "challengers", this PL playoff format is especially brutal for CJ. This result isn't very surprising considering Oz has been focusing exclusively on this match for weeks.

Khan and CJ are vastly different teams and the maps are the same. I don't see how this would give Oz more practice time other than burnout.

Oz won due to their superior team depth, clearly.

You mean long, back and forth macro wars? Then no. Most games were pretty clean cut.

:O Colosseum is pretty damn balanced PvT


I beg to differ. Terrans are pretty much limited to 3 bases given how far the 4th is. While protoss can expand all over the place while recalling, to abuse terran's lack of mobility. Plus it's always a bit problematic when you can't expand in the path of your push.

Terran gets 3 bases really easily and super fast upgrades. The bases are also easy to defend against recalls. It doesn't matter how much Protoss can expand. If they don't execute the first attack flawlessly with perfect Arbiter and HT usage, they lose. It's a balanced map for that reason; Terran can pump a shitload of units off three bases and doesn't need a fourth base until later.


When I say a protoss can abuse recalls, I meant AFTER they've already pushed out. If the terran leave enough units behind for recall purposes, then they're already screwed.

The first attack the protoss doesn't really have to "win". You're making it sound like the protoss has to break the first push emphatically or something. At the time when Hiya pushed out, it was 4 base vs 2 base(Hiya's main was just mined out when he pushed). When the protoss have twice the economy, you can afford to lose a lot of units. You just can't lose the first battle so badly the terran can just a-move into your main. Which is what Movie did.

yeah that's what pvt on colosseum comes down to, and why the map is balanced. Protoss has to do pretty damn well on the first attack to cut down the Terran army pretty drastically, or else the left over army + heavy vulture reinformcenet will you over. it's hard to recall vs a good terran after the push begins.
