kyrix should have played a little more defensive the constant aggressionen robbed him always of his few units and then ovie drop without some empty ovie doodes
I give up, I just don't know what to write here.

That was amazing play by Foxer keeping his cool. If Kyrix would have made any infestors at any point in most of those games he would have likely won.


Except the FoxeR kept pressuring him so he had no time and resources to spare... he was in danger of losing that gold expansion the whole time so he had to build units to defend (and then wasting units on counterattacks that didnt really work didn't help either)...

No.

It can, if Foxer beats the winner of ITR/Genius and Boxer beats Nada and the winner of Zenio/Zergbong.

Damn. This was the most awesome series ever. Kyrix's playstyle is just insane but in the last game it backfired and caused his defeat.

Foxer's pimpest play was to snipe the two overlords with banelings in the last engagement. Without that he would've been crushed.

It's Fauxer because Faux means fake/imitation. It's phonetically kinda similar to "foxer" and i don't understand what the point of foxer is.


Faux is pronounced "foe", it's not phonetically similar at all..

oh banelings who would have thought


Is it working? Looks like it's working. Damn. I can't believe people are using stuff that works.

It is working,but goddamn it's boring. Bit like watching a soccer game where one team scores one goal and decides to turtle it up for the remaining 70 minutes.
It works, it's shit for spectators.


I can't say for sure, but I'd be more concerned about winning 1st prize money than worrying about what a few spectators think. Some people actually are enjoying the blings, you know!^^ Like me! :D



If they are playing for money why not try to learn something more than just one thing that is a coin flip whether it works or not? Game 1 for example.. if zerg focused more on transitions rather than winning / surviving he couldve won. Game 2.. if terran didnt try some weird semi-allin marine scv thing / did some macro game he could won. Game 3 if terran didnt try marine vs baneling 3 games in a row he couldve won. Game 4.. finally terran learns that pure marine is bad which finally punishes the zerg.


Except it isn't coin flips...


How is it not a coin flip.. marines can die to banelings easily.. and banelings can lose to a terran who can micro so good easily. Which makes both players playing risky game. Its not a coin flip exactly yeah.. but its a risk that isnt needed if they just transitioned to something a little different once they seen what they were upagainst.. aka learning to adapt.


Do you think it"s actually so easy to micro that many marines against that many banelings and that too on CREEP?
Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

What a sick game. Not the best played, but easily the most exciting because of how aggressive each player was. Both were over-aggressive to a fault many times, but it served to make it really fun to watch.

Reminds me of Forrest Griffin vs Stephan Bonnar, for the UFC fans out there.

LOL at the question: "Do you use marines against banelings just to show off?"

Edit: AND THE ANSWER IS BASICALLY YES. SUCH A BALLER!

I just noticed, but is that an F on his shirt for FoxeR? If so that is amazingly awesome.

Edit: To the people saying it's fauxer, there was a thread to vote for either Foxer or Fauxer and Foxer won, just accept it. (This is coming from someone who voted for fauxer)
It's easier not to.

OMG. Guess you're sometimes better off not gging early... Kyrix was wasting his units wave after wave, totally underestimated FoxeR imo (who played amazing).

Fake BoxeR is the real deal.

Games1 & 5 recommended!

I actually think he overestimated FoxeRs economy that game and therefor attacked to kill him, instead of defending and macroing up, and not just denying the gold. He attacked into FoxeRs natural several times and lost most of his army.
