Hes on a 8 game win streak in pvz, same pvt as always [read great], and despite getting cheesed out of the osl by light [damn him to hell] hes in the msl, will probably go far, and is genuinely strong in all match ups. He looks good enough to be 10 for me- but thats the thing, he looks good now. Jangbi is so god damn inconsistent. yep, jangbi lately has been pulling his shit back together. we'll see how long it lasts  | ||

So either you like it or not, Stork will soon yet again become PR material  | ||

Look, I'll help you out. Here's 20 pros not currently on the PR that would be heavy favourites against tester and dongrae: Sea Light Jangbi Pure Much Stork Firebathero Shine Mind Nada Yellow[ArnC] Hyuk Hyun Canata Hwasin Bisu Rock go.go Hiya TheManiaMST | ||

Its getting cheesed out of an osl, thats it.Jangbi took a beating from Light in bo3, i want Much (uber games vs forGG) and Stork (qualified, finalist on WCG Korea, as always losing the final) on 9 and 10 spots. | ||

Light was VERY prepared for them by the time Jangbi had them but theres just nothing he could do with the ridges everywhere. Watch it again, seriously. At the time when Jangbi starts to build his first Stargate, he is at 171 supply. Light at that time is at 127.... On any normal map, Jangbi would have roflstomped Light then and there, and been done with it. But with those ridges everywhere, protoss cannot break the terran push without either carriers, or arbiters. Flanking is impossible, and the distances are super short. Case in point, you saw how superior Stork was to Dongrae? When Stork finally managed to get into Dongrae's main, he was 150 to 70, and had put down 3 stargates + beacon. Again, on any other map, it would have been over 10 minutes earlier. If terran cannot stop toss from getting those carriers, they are terrible, and deserve to lose. | ||

Plasma is actually very, very hard TvP. Don't be fooled by the current record on it, Terran will have a hellacious time winning any games against Protoss on it | ||

From my perspective, it looks like it's a lot harder to mess with the terran before they have their tanks + siege mode, and once they have those, the eggs are pretty much no barrier at all. And then the bases are really close. Protoss doesn't have any opportunity to slow the advance like on a map such as Blue Storm. | ||
