I have not been particularly happy either. Perhaps my expectations are biased, though: Nerchio played better than I thought, but Jjakji just seemed offline. Again, Jjakji is not the most consistent/solid/clean player, but he usually knows better than staying on marine/tank for twenty minutes and then going "ooops 15 broodlords, guess I just lose now".

It's a severe lack of game knowledge overall, I'd ignore it

He's in Code A but in the best shape of his career at the moment.

I agree with this. If Nerchio gets out his broodlords in time (read as: before he types "gg"), he wins because Jjakji isn't preparing for them. Again and again and again. Kinda makes me sad.
I'm pretty entertained by CatsPajamas sounding just like Artosis with his laugh-bursts though.

if Jjakji pushes with a medivac or 2 I don't see nerchio defending this push without a severe drone loss, roach ling early on this map can be punished so easily by a tank contain.

Yeah I would ignore somebody as stupid as that guy. But regarding the Ling-run bys I think they're being super effective because Jjakji is experiencing lag making depot-raising difficult.

nice timing here from Jjakji, and nerchio starts pathogen gland like 1.5min after the pit is finished

Cats is basically what I would expect a deeper Artosis to sound like, it's pretty great ^^

Mass bunkers: the counter to infestors.

This map really needs to get eliminated form all tournaments its just impossible as zerg vs Terran
But great serie wellplayed by both
|
Ugh, sad way to end this series 
|

Nice to know that dude who tried to 'spoil' us was dead wrong.
|
I dunno how much lag there was, but props to Nerchio regardless, it was a valiant showing.
Not gonna lie, unless there was a lot more lag than was visible, I'm pretty worried for Jjakji

Nerchio did much better than I expected. Tough loss but well done nonetheless
|
This is one of those times where I would love to be able to jump in to the replay and play it out from nerchio's standpoint and see if I could break the contain, great series, gj to both players, that was very entertaining!
