Wow, even Korean female players dominating the female scene?

Flo played great, but Aphrodite just capitalized on everything.

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.

The other problem I have is that Aphrodite and her had a series a few months ago and I think it was far closer. It just seems like Aphrodite continues to improve leaps and bounds, while Flo is falling behind. At this rate Aphrodite could definitely compete with the lower tier pro level male gamers and in time get far in tournament play, while Flo is just way behind.

Why did moletrap keep mentioning Aphrodite as "Aphoridiety"... It was so annoying to listen as a viewer. Aphrodite is def. leaps and bounds better than flo, I think Aphrodite is mid GM level in NA lol.

Much thanks to the organizeres of this event, it was fun!

Predictable result. Aphrodite is practically a Code B Korean, and blows away other female players.

Maybe Slayers_Eve could give her a run for it, but aside from that... yea.
