Not really.

Really. Besides his mess-up in g2 where he didn't finish the all-in he started (which would have won him the series right there) he was dominant in all his games, it was a clear case of the better playing coming out on top.

Now Idra is going down to hero and that simply proves that EG puts too much money into "stars" and not actual players.

I have not seen early ghost push ever be bad.

With 4-5 ghost it doesnt matter how much you spread, everything get's emped no matter what at 10 + aoe range.


the timing pushes with 2 ghosts

if HuK had gotten his robo bay up 1min earlier the push would have failed

he only has 2 emps

please stop balance whining


It was interesting how that game see-saw'd very fast. There was a point in time where gateway pressure vs 1 1/2 bunkers and no stim could really have put Thorzain in a bit of trouble, instead Huk backed off for Colossus and Thorzain's ghosts popped out for his timing and he took full advantage of the later robo bay.

Huk's Tech was too late as pointed out. He needed to do damage with his initial investment with his 5-gate. Jesus Christ guys, can we stop and think for a sec.

Too bad HuK, you'll take the next one.

Nuts.

Nice EMPS, took out 1/3 of the Zealots HP just like that. Thorzain is such a beast. I really want to see him play Idra.

I think you're over-estimating how difficult it is to hit EMPs.

That was a pretty neat timing push, though. Well executed, hit at just the right timing to catch HuK trying to tech. Nice play by T-Zain.


What exactly is hard about scanning and hitting a clump of of 2.25 speed units? Huk lost to a failed 5 gate push but emp is NOT hard to use.

Huk is still in code S. Thorzain couldn't win a single match in code A and didn't even stay to try again
