He can be really good, and he's insanely good in weird late game base race situations.
He's been sick lately tho, I dont know how much he could practice.
The rest of the matches look pretty well in favor of Hero. Yugioh has to play Luvsic next, who is already eliminated and thus quite demoralized. So he should go 4-0 and be qualified in 1st place. And in the last game he faces Hero, he might not care so much about that game, and this could give Hero the edge to receive a semi free-win.

Not much you can do with a squishy Zerg army like that against proper Force Fields and Blink/ HT's Archons micro
yup. It was a simple composition loss. muta/ling/bling asstandard composition against a Protoss with even economy? gg!

Luvisc could have done a million different things that would have helped him win. Like not attacking into that army at all with diminishing returns.
No all the Protoss has to do is leave an archon few stalkers/cannons or Ht at each base and the zerg army can take a ton of damage to even 1-2 HT's because of its Clump/Squishy Factor.
This was evident throughout every time Luvsic tried to counter attack.

Unless July beats JYP and Clide, in which case YugiOh has to win to not get into a 3-way tie. Also... Hero has to PvP with JYP...

Damn you illnesses! Way too many times have they caused a player to not show their best play in a critical game (Sase!)
I srtill think its kinda stupid that hero played really really good and luvsick played pretty bad and still, if hero storms one second to late once, he looses

Actually the counterattacks did a lot of damage, Or did you miss the casters noting that Hero lost more than 60 probes? That alone should have put Luvsic significantly ahead if he bothered to expand properly and change his unit composition.
And when you're on 4 base it's not hard to build a roach warren/tech to hive so you can move out of your current composition.

If hero beats JYP and Yugioh with July winning out as well then they'll have to play more matches...

That may be true but HerO's macro was really good, he made probes right after again and in no time he was up to 70 drones again. After that first baneling bomb on probes he still had 65 probes on 3 bases, not bad at all really.
