Meh... Acer has a strong roster but they need to be able to take out GanZi and Heart. GL to Scarlett and Nerchio.
|
Aaaand it's live. Let's see if col can stop the zerg swarm
|
so many drones dead. 14 by placing the queens a little bit wrong. Hope paranoid can recover
|
Don't know about the game but the chat is good.

Urgh, what a Blarchon of a late game.
|
Euro Zergs always have the sneakiest and weirdest builds in ZvP.

GG for minigun Bly does this soooo often
|
Yo dawg, I heard you like bases, so I built a base in your base so I can roach while you poach.
|
bly is good at those kinda curveballs especially against protoss, he also does the spine rush often

Did Bly proxy hatch? He also did that at WCS Ukraine vs fraer.
|
IPL should really strip chat from replays. It has no place in professional casts.

Yeah, but since he is on Acer he had to switch to zerg to fit in.

I think it's actually a requirement.
|
nerchio talkin smack and then looses - didn't do any damage with the mutas or deny the 3rd for that long
now building drones as he gets attacked too.... thats gg
|
|
It's always satisfying watching Nerchio trash talk another player and proceeds to lose.
|
Goswser is doing well in ZvZ. I figured they would leave Scarlett to take him out though, since she did well in the NA tournament, and took out Vibe twice IIRC... and Vibe is strong in ZvZ.
|
Goswser has some sick zvz.

I've been noticing this for a while too. He took out Symbol (though it was a Bo1) in some qualifier and several other qualified Zergs.

So because Nerchio lost one ZvZ he is overrated? He still just won HSC V and got 2nd at the IEM Cologne.
|
I always like it when coL's non Korean's show strongly, makes me happy. :-P

Yea bo1 zvz cross server means you're overrated, cus fuck logic right.

Nerchio is 5-1 against Symbol since 12-08-26 and also has the upper hand vs HyuN. This was a surprise. :/

Well GG gowser ! Unexpected result for me.
|
Damn, freaking goswer, going beast mode!
|
surprising complexity wins so easily. Acer have a lot of potential but no one really played that well today

Yeah, all of them play on EU server(from Korea) for online cups so it doesn't mean shit...
|
Impressive. Think I'm gonna put in a mental note on goswser's zvz.
|
Goswser saves coL! Impressive ZvZ play by him, and nice seeing the underdogs win for once.
|
Super impressed with Goswser.

Gowser holy crap crushing Acer. Must have some pretty sick ZvZ (I admit I only watched 2 games )
|
Holy hell Goswser>Nerchio and scarlet? Mad skills man. I will definitely follow him in the future.
|
I think it's safe to say that nobody expected this result. GGs!
|
What the hell. I miss IPTL one night and Goswser nearly all-kills Acer? Unbelievable.
|
Just watched the first game, where Nerchio was so cocky as a observer. Fact is tho, Acer was favored and Nerchio knew it! But Gowser really kicked ass. to bad I don't really like him Hope He'll change my mind in the future tho!
|
looks like goswser has a pretty descent ZvZ
|
I don't even know how to pronounce his name but congrats Goswser.
|
Noooo scarlett :/
Gowser pretty good vs Zerg / Acer / samething
