Somehow I saw that over a 5minute+ time period on my stream. You must be having lag issues. | ||

But he didn't do anything that we would praise if anybody else was doing it. So please, calm down. | ||

They can only saw the obvious. Uhh.. it was fairly bad... Ace looked his usual PvZ self and the games were very one sided.... just because one person executes a plan the way they want it does not automatically make it a good series. | ||

If opponent is greedy, you can punish it with 4-6 gates. He doesn't even have a core, when his 1st phoneix or voidray is out, 10 mutas will already be out. | ||

Why do you think he think it was a great series, considering what organization the winner was from? | ||

If you can't win against a protoss player who doesn't even scout and doesn't start putting up a second cannon till the roaches are at the front door, that's pretty bad. Ace threw that game away not because of the mass cannons but because of the inexplicable decision to all-in afterwards. Roro was on two-base, Ace could've played a lot more patiently there. Roro definitely played game 1 really well though, but game 2 initial all-in control wasn't very strong. | ||

Roro looked good but do not take much from that series other than he is better than someone who isnt Code A anymore and wont likely be next season. | ||

He did play well but you are overstating. We saw a lot of this and better stuff before so this is actually nothing special. And Roro mostly looked so good because Ace didn't put up much of a fight. Ace didn't split his army well, didn't use force fields well, had units doing nothing during the fight. Ace playing bad made Roro looking good here because he could just crush in with his Roach force. | ||
