he went roach/ling/bane in game 2 >_>

This 2 base only Terran play in TvP is an interesting choice. Basically boiling it down to a kill or be killed scenario.

It's a UK page so far, keep it up guys!

A comment on the game might be necessary, life is so good and tends to hit really nice timings but when they aren't effective enough he never has the economy to back it up; I guess that's called all-in but I hate the term ^-^

Should we declare aLive as actually from the UK and all type UK, UK, UK?

In terms of relevance I'm actually 100% on with my predos so far

maybe i'm blind, but i haven't seen a single roach from life in this series, and banelings don't really need to be your composition.

alive played macro in game 1 and 2 and life got a huge pile of lings. he didn't have banelings until much later, because you can make banelings in reaction. if you dont need banes then you can use that gas to get fast hive and broodlord. this is life's gimmick build - fast broods gave alive all kinds of problems.

having loads of speedlings on map is awesome and pretty much guarantees that zerg can stay 1-2 bases ahead of terran.

He built quite a few in early/mid to handle aLive's hellions leaving his queens free to handle banshees. Went as far as getting roach speed too. Just happened to tech pretty fast after that because aLive double expanded and couldn't threaten anything else for ages.

Our empire is over but I think our next objective should be the imperial domination of the starcraft 2 world.

roaches is why he had a 16 minute hive instead of a 13 minute hive then

Did I miss something, or did Alive never play the final game vs Life? I was off for a bit.

Jjak-attack crushes Tiger to advance to the finals =)

Thats been Taejas problem against Protoss forever. He gets maxed and just wants to end the game, hardly ever plans for more than 1 200/200 battle.

Awesome that Jjakji is in the finals, would love to see him go to his first foreign event. Really have to wonder if aLive will accept the seed to Assembly with him still being in the GSL.
