The setup and the crowd and everything seem very akward to me or am I wrong with that?

It definitely is awkward, but unfortunately it's just on the wrong weekend. Most people will watch HSC and also EVO

I think Hero believes he is much better than Illusion. Hero's has been favoring Nexus first in PvT, yet he's 1 gate expanding here. He likely thinks the only way he can lose is a fluke. He's lost the battle of the builds for a second straight game, this time by reacting to Illusion.

I don't want to generalise (lol) but i think the crowd is like in the opposite spectrum of people who would enjoy a game like sc2.

I can't get enough of HerO he is so handsome TT. Watching his stalker micro is like watching a monk doing his morning workout.

So BO disadvantage turned out to be an advantage? :D hahaha


How was it a disadvantage? HerO scouted it and stole the gas, but that was so early in the mind-games, the end result of the BO's heavily favored Illusion.

HerO opened sort of like how you would play vs a 1-1-1, but Illusion did a quick expo and denied HerO's.

Well, the day for HSC ended half an hour before this event started. So timezones are actually helpful here.

I guess the awkwardness just comes from the location being an auto show and automaker exhibition, respectively. But DRG, MMA, HerO, and Illusion are all there and there is money on the line for all of them.

Isn't the point of the build that you push that far into the toss?

BO disadvantage for Hero.

i was addressing how you said the phoenix turned out to be the mvps, because hero thought there would be banshee play.

Oh sorry miscommunication. Yeah was a disadvantage for HerO.

I feel like the Pheonix won him the game so I added that comment. Normally, most Terrans do multi-pronged attacks with drops included but Illusion completely shyed away from that all game. I credit that to the fear of HerO's multi-tasking and air control with the Pheonix. On the other side you could say he was just nervous..... but now in Game2 he's doing the drops and segregating the army, so that supports my Pheonix theory.

Hero can't get up his third. I think if Illusion macros, builds a fourth, makes vikings, and attacks before the templar switch, he'll win the game.

This multipronged aggression from Illusion is really impressive
