This line kinda pissed off the sAviOr fanboy in me:

What top programmer doesn't use a handful of "generic" builds in every game? Surely Iris did generic builds as well, what builds aren't? This statement is just a bit dumb because sAviOr has been forced to mix up his build orders quite a bit recently and has done so successfully.
I agree that his muta harrass every game was predictable but *hopefully* this was partly used to throw off NaDa, although that's just my hope. But I mean if sAviOr's game was that predictable he wouldn't have won; on Reverse Temple for instance, when he counter attacked, you can call that great game sense and you can call that unpredictability, because obviously Iris wasn't ready for it.
"PS - Anyone else notice on Longinus Savior got 11 vs 3 every game and scouted the wrong way every time? coincidence?" rofl its normal that you scout always the same way :O

Both players played their hearts out this series. Again, the games were so desperate! I can't believe how Iris played these ZvT's. And I can't believe Savior's still standing after winning two very monstrous semifinals. I love team CJ. This is an OSL to remember. Really.

Well I wasn't trying to suggest report writers should be more or less biased. Indeed having bias in your writing almost always makes it more interesting. I was just disagreeing with something Manifesto said but obviously my opinion is no better than his. But I see now that report threads are really the best place for arguments...

game 5 was amazing.. and i think this is the first time ive ever seen a hint of a smile from savior. correct me if im wrong lol.
He looked just as happy, if not more so, when he beat Midas in the Round of 16 best of 3. He was smiling so much he put his hands in his face when he beat Midas.

I think it was more like a halfhearted forced handshake as savior was walking away so it looked like he was pushing him away (which is what he might have wanted to do anyway).
since im not really that good at sc, what are some build orders that terran usually do or possibly do vs a zerg? when im watching nada replays to me he's just building alot of marines and meds eventually vessels and start raping from there, but what are the types of build orders that u normally would vs a zerg?
EPT
