At the overall score overview FXO had 2 and another team also 1 "Warning". What is this about?

My bet is EG when idra, stephano are gone. They got the money baby! Gonna be a while before they lose Idra when he still gets ok streaming numbers. Agreed and idra pretty entertaining because he commentates his games. But if life would stream, chances are he would also get alot of viewers  Still, no way they'll give him another 300k/3year contract just for streaming and not winning anything. His future at EG is determined by how much of a realistic view he has of himself and his worth.

Like I said man-- I wonder which Kespa player will knock him out this time.

I hope he doesn't, streaming is a BIG reason foreigners have a hard time competing against Koreans in international tournaments. I'm not sure that Life will be too greatly affected by streaming, at least some (maybe 5-10 hours a month). It's kind of like Messi in football; you know he's gonna use his left foot when finishing or dribbling, but you don't know when, how and where.
Life is an opportunist; he feeds off of the opponents mistakes. I think that until the other players figure out how to not make any mistakes, Life is going to stay at the top, even if he streams.

I think Life is just so good because of the fact the doesn't play full Macro game. He does Macro ofc, but he is very aggressive. There is no sitting in base for 10min and waiting.
True Zerg - ATTACK! Harrassing, Poking, etc asap + "mini-strats" (kill the tech lab 
Many zergs today play a Macro game (20-25min) and lose. Not much zergs are aggressive from the minute they can.
Anyway, Life just pushes zerg race to the max and it pays off. His skill is obv insane but even with that skill he would lose maybe to Skytoss if he didn't harass with Hydras whenever he could. He just never stays still and waits for the opponent to come to him.
GG and great GSTL day.

Yeh, he's good at these different styles but alot off his agression doesn't seem that allinish to me. A good example is his 10 Pool against Flash wich did absolutely nothing, but he still transitioned into a nice macro style. Today the roach agression against Byun backed with a third going up. Also in his game against Creator where he was attacking the whole time, it still didn't stop him to get base after base.
It's a very tight line to walk, and probably the hardest part about playing Zerg. Because under/overcommiting in economy/agression can lose you any basic game.
