Man, who'd have thought Fantasy would beat Bisu? Frankly, I was shocked when I found out about that. IMO, he deserves the OSL title just for that.

what about by.hero then lol



Also, yeah by.hero is fast, but theres NO WAY he will beat jeadong. He's lifetime 1-2 on TV, STX isn't known for good ZvZers, and only 3 players have ever beaten jaedong more than once (and that was luxury, july and savior, only beating him twice, and he hasn't to to any of them since 2007).

I really like by.hero, but this is seriously the greatest example of david vs goliath I've seen in a long time.

Dude. Did you just write that hero is the favorite because he has high APM? And stork doing better than bisu? I'm willing to pay lot of money for that weed...


How is it that Bisu comes up in threads that aren't really about him? No one cares.. he LOST.

I don't even think Plexa has By.Hero as the favorite, he's simply saying that with this high hand speed and good micro he at least has somewhat of a chance.

It's a real shame he had to run into Jaedong of all people but so it goes.

Jaedong will win over by.hero and

would use pro queens to decimate fantasy in the finals.
Jaedong has to be a Bonjwa. Tired of of rooting for July.

"Ironically, the only map which Bisu realistically had a chance on (Medusa) was never used"
huh? Bisu no realistic chance against fantasy on any of the first 3 maps? How many people would think that before they knew the results?
Also Im sure if theyd play the BO5 again in a week it could look very different.
Fantasy just had everything planned out perfectly this time.

And yea I dont think by.hero has any chance against jaedong whatsoever. Sure he has a lot of apm, his ZvP is great, but I mean the more macro and multitasking is needed -> the more high apm is useful and ZvZ is so low econ so its not that important'
also Jaedong is the master of micro so...
Its not gonna give by.hero any kind of realistic chance.
If I'm wrong and well see a really close exciting 3:2 BO5 I'll be happy to eat my words but I really really dont think so.

seeing by.heros raise since his practice with july i also think there is a chance that he could win this.
maybe the inventor of muta-stacking whispers him some new zvz ideas which cannot fail;-)

yeah well but honestly i think this will be 0<3 jaedong, my bet on him

Uhh, I think that metaphor is used wrong? In this situation Jaedong would be goliath, however from what you wrote you don't think hero is going to win?

meh whatever, Jaedong is going to rape, is he still boasting an 80% in ZvZ?

He stacked the mutas on minerals , July was the first to use an overlord or a larve to stack the mutas at least thats what i've heard .

Anyway Jaedond is the heavy favourite here anything else then a 3 - 0 or just maybe a 3 - 1 is considered an upset . And i agree that Stork has done better this year then Bisu .

I don't agree thought that the map imbalance was the issue why Bisu lost . Fantasy was just playing better then him . Last OSL final Stork demolished Fantasy 2 times on chupung while Bisu did some retarded 2 base carrier build . If Bisu won at least 1 game he would have had the chance to close it 3 - 2 , because of medusa being the fourth map , but he didn't and had only himself to blame . Seriously not scouting the map and letting your opponent take a secret base is a pretty big mistake that shouldn't happen on this level of play .

Great job as usual Plexa, I was unaware of by.hero's blistering speed before this post!

Hopefully this ZvZ won't disappoint like Zero-Lux and Zero-Savior.

Blech, I'd like to make excuses for Bisu as he really seems the trump card for the protoss and SKT1 but man.

pretty sure it was the broodling twins (Lux/Yarnc) that first used the magic box to stack mutas. July also used the mineral stacking for the longest time and was just really famous for it and really good at it. i wonder what people's reactions were to seeing the magic box trick for the first time.
