Yeah, and viOLet traded for sentry while keeping all his infestors on a superior economy...

Even though he lost that game, those holds by Hero were sick. Crazy how he can hold with great FF and those immortals despite the massive supply difference.

Just two more games, ViOLet! HerO hasn't cried for awhile now.

Do you think HerO already lost mentally? I think he's a guy who gets frustrated once he is down 0-2.

maybe u can hit that late vs. a foreign Zerg but a Korean Zerg will destroy u if u move out that late with immortal sentries allin

I thought it was supposed to be ≈9 minutes When Parting does this build perfectly, I've seen him moving out before 9 minutes. Hero was moving out at like 9:40. Too late.
Season 5. Code S ro32 Group F.

his 2 zealot 2 stalker aggression was a pretty big delay/investment for hero ..to only force some extra lings..the problem was that with that..and a small build mistake ..his push was delayed too much..(and also that roach run by)..once zerg's production has kicked in to that point it's just too many units for an immortal sentry to win.
i think if he just did parting's style, given violet doing the same thing hero'd have won.

'Twas beautiful, getting the mix between lings and roaches perfect is so tough. Excellent 2nd game from Violet. That's the kind of underrated skill in SC2 that people don't appreciate enough. Was a really exceptional hold, HerO's micro was also awesome though.

Wow just look at that body language from Hero. He's slumped and holding his head while Violet sits there like an invincible robot. I'm enjoying the view of the booths here with the profile view... so sick.

I think HerO missed a lot of FF's while he was microing the immortals at the beginning of the fight.

I'd stick in Rain, but he's not been around for the whole year. He's also just dropped to Code B. If he showed the kind of play we've seen from him so far, over a longer period he'd 100% be in here.

He hasn't made deep Code S runs, or had a good spell over foreign tournies in different periods. That said, not his fault that Prime can't send him everywhere. If he'd have won WCG he probably would have made it in but he didn't do that well there alas. Parting likewise, much as I love him didn't quite do it for me. That and the glasses. He looks like what Elton John would look like if he was reincarnated as a Korean progamer. Come on HerO for game 2! That was a bit sloppy on his part, but that pathing is ridiculous. Daybreak is a terrible map anyway, surprised people aren't more vocal in having it removed I don't see how Gumiho can be ranked above marineking Marineking won a MLG championship and a MLG arena. 3rd at another MLG. Gumiho only made it past the ro32 of Code S 1 time this year. every other season he lost in the ro32 including one season where he lost to Thorzain Marineking made it to the ro16 or higher in every season of Code S this year. Gumiho won 2 GSTLs. sure. Marineking won 1 GSTL where he 4 killed in the finals and led the GSTL season with the best record. Sure, Gumiho is the better player right now, but for the whole year? no way The first half of 2012 before Taeja's explosion was the year of MKP. He was unstoppable in like every match up. His games against DRG in the MLG arena's were just unreal.
Gumiho has been more consistent throughout the whole year. But MKP's peak was way higher this year.

And I missed a hold of Immortal/Sentry all-in? Crazy. Thanks for the mind-f*** whoever posted that video of the dry commentary. Just what I needed. In combination with the Hyun massage earlier today I can honestly say this is the funniest day of SC2 for me. Always glad to have made somebody's day better ^^ Sucks that you had to miss the HerO micro, though, it was absolutely immaculate.

Gosh, that Immortal micro was extremely SICK, reminds me of Boxer's tank micro, and all those reaver war in PvP in BW !

Gumiho just performs better in GSTL, and MKP is just in a major slump right now
