Hot_Bit you are my hero! :D Your writeups are always awesome.

Thanks for the kind words, but honestly I'm not very satisfied with these writeups, because you can't do in depth analysis or make funny or creative comments about them because there's just too many games. Nobody is going to read recaps and analysis of 40 games in the Ro32, its just too much. That's why I'm trying to summarize as quickly as possible and keep everyone up to speed until the Ro16 onward, when it becomes much more fun to be a newswriter.


No man! The write up fully serves its purpose. It has a short recap of every single game played in Ro32, so everybody can keep up without watching hours of VODs. If you really want to write more analysis, why don't you just pick out the best 2-3 matches of this Round and make a deeper analysis.

Looking forward to Ro32! So many exciting match ups.

Nice article.

One peeve:

How does everyone view Fantasy as an underdog even now? He's the best terran without a doubt. If you seriously think Flash or Leta is better than Fantasy you're drinking the koolaid too much. Fantasy is going to beat Bisu and it isn't going to be close.


Best T TvP wise for sure. Flash still comes close to that but plays too safe unlike fantasy. But Flash claims the best TvT, and I would say in a series Leta is almost unstoppable with all his builds in his arsenal and his insane execution. 1 mu does not make you the best Terran there is. If anything Flash is the most well rounded Terran between the 3.


Well you have to admit that Fantasy's TvZ > Flash's TvZ nowadays. TvZ was never Flash's strong matchup anyway. But I think Fantasy's TvP = Flash's TvP. And Flash's TvT > Fantasy's TvT.


TvT: Flash > Fantasy
TvZ: Fantasy > Flash (TvZ is always the bane of Flash in individual leagues, whereas Fantasy thrives on it.)
TvP: Fantasy > Flash (Top protosses can and do take advantage of Flash's predictability. He needs to reinvent his TvP asap.)

At this moment in time I think Fantasy is more dangerous than Flash. He's quite capable of playing against Bisu on even footing. This deserves to be a semifinals match, it's too bad it will only be Ro16.



I really don't think Fantasy will be "playing against Bisu on even footing"
I think Fantasy is gonna stomp Bisu into the freaking ground.

I wouldn't count Kal completely out. He's shown some good stuff lately. But yeah, potential JD vs Canata/Piano Bo5.

Lol @ fantasys tvz being better than flash...seriously guys put the pipe down.

TvZ: Flash >> Fantasy
TvT: Flash > Fantasy
TvP: Flash = Fantasy(though fantasy's style is waay cooler)

I dunno how you can say fantasy thrives on TvZ in starleagues...when hes only beaten GGplay, who was utterly caught off guard. and Luxury.

Wow the Horang2 vs Nada game sounds pretty entertaining. I generally root for P in PvT since mech is imba but it's too bad Nada couldn't pull out the win.

why does the article writer disrespect all the players on flash's side of the bracket by saying he has a "cake walk"

I think they are all excellent players and there will be many good matches to watch
