Not sure what the ultras were about, Sjow was clearly meching and using PFs to turtle, and I would think that infestor/BL + ling harass whereever possible would be a much better answer.

Sjow's been watching some MVP replays

MVP probably would have killed like 30 drones with these first hellions , but indeed well played sjow
is sjow still living in korea?

I hear roaches are pretty good against mech lol. Fairly certain that IdrA didn't even have a Roach Warren that game.

SjoW's macro was just too good that game, and IdrA's positioning for engagements weren't ideal. Several times he pushed his speedlings right into blue flame hellions.

To go mutas/lings is a very wierd decision against mech then ultras instead of broodlords :s

I think roaches/infestors/broodlords is better against mech, was surprised IdrA sticked to mutas

Wow sjow impressive beating Idra in a straight up game - he just looked like someone who had Idra completely figured out.

Because Sjow was already building a substantial viking force. Was kind of obvious.

yea by the time that idra would get BLs out sjow still had like 10 vikings..no point in going BL with that many viking out already.

Sometimes SjoW playing awful,but really awful.

But sometimes to he playing like a true champion,the real champion.

I think the maps size works against BL's. Not sure about that though as it's not as open as Tal'Darim.


I would rather have that supply in lings/banes or roaches. Ultras just are sooo sloowwwwww and not very cost effective.

thing is you can't really kill mech without roaches. Lings, no matter how many you have them, dies immediatly and all you got left are lone ultras.

Sjow was sloppy with his vikings too, with a bit more of them he would even have held off any corruptors attacks. Sjow could also have made a Raven to stop them even more. Once you get enough terran air you either need a lot of mutalisks (gas heavy) or hydras (immobile, weak to siegetank/hellion) to prevent all your expansions from dying.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

SjoW playing AMAZING. He is so fucking smart. Mass viking really early to prevent idra from even considering broodlords. Then tech switches to 3port banshee. He is so god damn smart! SjoW 3-0 Idra GOGO!

Broodlords when 7 vikings are out already and Sjow is making 3 more starports doesn't sound like a very good idea.

And isn't the Korean Terminus different for GSL Oct onwards?

There was a different version last season(no backdoor to the third, rocks at the third and the choke to your natural a little bit tighter) to balance ZvP, but that made it even worse ZvT

Was removed for this season.

Yep, that's SjoW for you, he's looked absolutely terrible at times, but when he's hot he is really good, that was definitely a brilliant game from him, Mvp esque adding in the banshees late game etc, let's see how he goes in this one, wonder if he'll stick with mech.

That was an amazing display of mech TvZ. Sjow didn't look vulnerable at all from start to end.

Great macro, solid multitasking. Adding in banshees at the end there is something we definitely need to see more of.
