ah. finally we're back to normal protoss mind set again. Kiwi has probably taken a page out of MC's book: Wow, I've just won one of the most awesome long term macro games ever and I'm easily able to keep up with my opponent like that. So why not commit suicide next game with some all out timing push
I tink, MC so sterong

Nobody has ever said that hydras suck against pure gateway voidray.


yup this lol. Hydra's are great when there are no colossi/templar ^^

At assembly, stephano owned sen and lost very narrowly to dimaga. I think it's safe to say that he has top notch ZvZ.

I have no idea why kiwi would try to engage that many hydras with no colossus, soon as he saw it he should have retreated and put down double robo and taken his 3rd

Yeah. Sad Kiwi lost. But Stephano played legitimately well. He balances good restraint with solid aggression quite well. Props to him.

solid play by stephano, really curious about going hydra blindly, wouldn't collossi tear that up?



That's what happens when you do the same build 3 times in a row in a tournament. People will hard counter you like that. =/ Sucks as I wanted to see KiWi win..

Not to start conspiracies or anything but, did he wear those noicecancelling headphones properly with that bandana he wears? Looks like kind of a weird build.. But what do I know


Kiwikaki has done that build alot against zergs lately, and he did it in every game that he played vs stephano (g2 he didn't attack I believe, but still 2gate chrono zeal->void rays)

Kiwi did the same build every game, and apparently have been doing this build a lot lately. It wasn't unreasonable to expect the double stargate I think.

He went hydra blind in game 2 also, and there was no VRs coming. I has probably seen kiwi use this buold alot and tried to blind counter it every game.

Stephano is pretty unlucky about his grid, because ZvP is his worst. Hopefully he can beat violet in ZvZ and then he has ZvP again... Would love to see more of his ZvT.
