they also seem oddly unenthusiastic. even comparing moletrap khaldor casting vs this seems to be a couple of levels in interest/intensity.

Seems like Flo is just running through the motions of what to do against Mech, but she can't really do it all at once. She should have huge leads, but her macro just keeps her even or behind. What's the point of expanding everywhere if you can't can't take advantage of having all those bases?

This series just emphasized that flo isn't really at a decent progamer level to compete among the best of them.

Still questioning Quantic's decision to take her up.

Wow, even Korean female players dominating the female scene?

Flo played great, but Aphrodite just capitalized on everything.

I meant that in terms of moletrap watches a lot of high end starcraft and maybe navi doesnt so its up to him to explain why 'turtling' is the only way to play mech vs bio.

Congrats to the winner!

Seriously, I wish we could have seen her at more minor tournaments to see how well she fares against other progamers. It would have been cool to see her at + Show Spoiler +

Give her time, but she definitely might want to reevaluate her practicing methods. Aphrodite should get some credit, she definitely has good macro and micro, plus her decision making is great, especially for someone that hasn't ever played an RTS until a couple of months ago. She's definitely got potential to get far and she's still pretty young.

It wasn't bad at all, honestly. She had a small lead at some portions of the games she played, and she should have probably won that proxy-marauder game but it looks like she forgot concussive? Or just didn't micro well enough that game either.

I think the problem is she just did not know how to handle Mech-play to well later on in the game.

Besides that... Aphrodite is good. Her mech play is not bad at all, as one can expect when you have Rainbow/ST to learn from :o.

I agree with you that perhaps she can become better in time... and that Aphrodite did play well given the circumstances but there is still lots of questionable decision making in flos play against mech. Usually against mech its important to get a strong concave and to catch the tanks unsieged by any means necessary. This usually includes flanking or just pulling back in and out to delay the push. The game on Shattered temple showed that she mostly just attacks... dies, backs off and as a result cant stop the mech train from getting to her base. I thought she definitely needed improved maneuverability in that regard. Another thing is to split up some of the units instead of having the one bio ball so that she can get a surround more efficiently...even to catch some of the back tanks as it is sieging up. These are things bio have to do against mech to be even remotely successful and we just did not see that at all.

The game with the three dropship drops were also questionnable. Moletrap was saying how they did a lot of damage (derp moletrap and your finite wisdom) but in all honesty that did not do a lot given the loss of three dropships worth of units along with the dropships themselves. The second attempt also showed she has lapses in concentration... forgetting where the dropships were and not moving them until they get sniped. Even so... was there even an advantage to using three dropships at one area? Why not two in the main and one at the natural... or even so one on each base (though for the third the drop has to edge away from the defensive tanks). Once again it just emphasizes she has a long long way to go before she can even have a chance in competing at a high level.
