Should be a decent matchup, hwangsin used to pretty much only do allins, but I think he has changed his ways and developed into a well rounded player who has a lot of potential.

I think Illusion has issues TvP, so this will be tough for him.

They're both such likeable fellows, but I think I'll be rooting for Illusion. 8)

Two hours until start, also this time around I'll be taking quotations from the best game summary posts and adding them to the OP at the end for those who missed the action.

Starting off game 1 with neosteel frame and building armor upgrades as Illusion contains HwangSin on 2 bases with half a dozen bunkers, meanwhile HwangSin takes a hidden third. They are playing so evenly so far I hope we get to see this go to game 7.

Hidden fourth after he broke that contain and took his third again, I think you meant.

Pretty sloppy game from both players. Zero vikings vs. mass colossi; Hwangsin floating thousands of resources because he had very few unit-producing structures. Illusion expanding only once he was off half a mining base. Meh.

It was actually even for most of the game though, regardless of the level of play in game one, so it was still rather interesting and somewhat unclear as to who was going to win (until Illusion just let Hwangsin take over the whole map lol).

1-0 Hwangsin at the moment.

Game two is on Shakuras.
Illusion top right, Hwangsin bottom left.
Both FE.

Illusion attacks at 10 minutes with mass bio and ghosts (*nukes).

Hwansin holds off the push with great forcefields for 3 full minutes, causing Illusion to waste a few stims, not do too much damage, and eventually pull back.

At around 15-16 minute marks, we see both players take their third bases (along each side- no pocket expos). Charge and thermal lance about finished. Medivacs finally in good production.

At 17-18 minutes, Illusion dropping all over the place, keeping Hwangsin contained but doing minimal damage overall (sniping a few pylons and probes).

170 supply each at the 19 minute mark. Colossi and gateway ball (including archons- no storm yet) vs. MMMGV. Illusion taking fourth (bottom right).

21:30- maxed armies. Storm finishes but not used. Ghosts EMP, but colossi kill off the bio before dying, which engage too far forwards. Protoss army topples Terran army by about 70 food differential (~150 - ~80 left over). Illusion calls gg.

Hwangsin 2-0.

Game three is on Antiga Shipyard.
Illusion at the 11 o'clock; Hwangsin in cross position at the 5 o'clock.

Fast double gas for Illusion; walls off with a bunker and two depots. Reactored factory for hellions; fast starport too. Fast robo and blink for Hwangsin. Then 3 gates total.

4 hellion drop killed 9 probes. Decent damage but the building placement and reaction time of Hwangsin stopped it from doing a lot more (he only had 3 stalkers too).

Hwangsin counters with blink into Terran main. Picks off a few scvs but there are two banshees out. 50 supply each at the 9:30 mark. Observer gets sniped; stalkers need to retreat. Banshees have cloak.

Illusion expands a bit before Hwangsin around 12 minutes each. More importantly, Illusion is up 77 to 59 supply. Same number of workers (27) and so Terran has a much bigger army. Raven out too.

Both players have a myriad of units- Banshee, raven, tank, marine, scvs vs. zealot, immortal, stalker, sentry, high templar. 15:00- siege outside the natural. Some engaging ensues but Illusion clearly has the upper hand. Hwangsin calls gg once the high templar are gone.

Hwangsin 2-1
