Prediction Zest > Bong BarrackS < herO Crazy > EffOrt Flash > rare Stats > Bbyong
KT Rolster 4 - 1 CJ Entus
|
100 % certainty rare will make an all-in. Let's see if FlaSh still plays very greedy.

thanks wintex! i shall cheer for CJ
|
Rare the sacrificial lamb.
|
herO, Effort, Bbyong, please win, so Hydra can try and win a fucking game for a change.
|
|
I really hope KT wins this one. Last round and a half have been a disaster for them. Here's to KT redeeming themselves and finishing out this round strong
|
|
Prediction:
Zest > Bong BarrackS < herO Crazy < EffOrt Flash > rare Stats > Bbyong Cacia < Hydra
Ace: Flash > herO
KT 4 - 3 CJ
|
Waaaaaaah no Jo Byung Se but oh well CJ GOGOOGOGOGOGO~
|
two PvTs on Naro & Fighting Spirit should be awesome. Man if CJ doesnt win this !_! and why did my man Snow not have a chance? CJ could really use some good terran considering him getting to code A qualifier final

The new jackets are white - same colour as the shirts - creating terrible contrast. The old ones go better with them.

uggh. old kt uniforms much better than this one.
anyways, 4-1 KT with herO winning
|
C'mon Flash, do it do it!

I like the Korean flag on the collar. Otherwise, it sucks

Some TIL going down. CJ EntertainUs vs. KT Sports
And P7GAB nearly living up to his name :o
|
Zealots in Zest's main, then attack in Bong's main. Neither did lasting damage but was pretty aggressive.

KT 4 - 3 CJ In theory it should look like this, in reality, KT will find any way possible to fuck it up. I'm sure there's going to be an ace match and I can't wait to see what happens. Flash's confidence has been crushed so many times in the booth, will they send out Stats again? Think it'll be Flash - herO though, and I dare say I think Flash will be the hero.
Now I've totally gone and cursed him

I'm curious what protoss snipe build barracks has planned.

lol Adidas for KT & Nike for SKT it all makes sense now

Too expensive, you're basically just hoping against hope that he won't attack while your transition is occuring. Otherwise, he'll have more phoenix, crush your air army, and lift your templar and kill them off as you build them. Problem is the gas cost of going templar is insane, and just building the templar archives is 2 phoenix. Hell, templar aren't even mobile enough to keep up with your own phoenix, so you'd have to turtle and hope your opponent doesn't attack at the other bases where the templar aren't. Templar are more gas expensive than pheonix, so it's not a good trade.

LOL at the couple. She sees it, covers then he's looking, gets surprised then partly covers XD

Haven't seen herO played much off late, especially during his losing streak, but he does seem more tensed than the last time I remember watching him. It's such a pity, love to see that cute smug look back on his face.

Did he say anything about Classic on anti??

Even the SCV prearing to make the third lost his fight with the probe, simply nothing is working here for barracks.

Rare microing that drone that got targeted by the widow mine into the extractor
|
rare forgetting roach speed?
|
Hah that widow mine shot went chasing that drone into the extractor...I wonder if it actually killed the drone.

200 supply vs 140 supply for a moment in Flash's favor. TT
|
k just for rare or zergs vs flash creep tumors hsould be widow mines :D
|
I only come here to say how terrible the observer is

wtf is this flash loses like all his marines to banelings and then still kills rare's army
flacro too stronk T_T

That is many medivac, yes?

4th base for zerg started and denied. Flash is creating his fifth TT

lol flash has like 30 marines just sitting in main/nat

I still don't understand how you can stay under 200 minerals every... fucking... game... God's macro is just... godlike :D

flash seriously makes this matchup look broken right now. he is so good and all over the place. He makes it nearly impossible to engage his armies in a cost effective manner for the zergie, and as a result builds a bigger and bigger lead throughout the game. incredible play

Flash won so long ago, i really love the 16 medivacs though.. Flash did that pretty much since the first sc2 games we saw of him, more people need to.. seriously, most underused overpowered combat unit ever, overmake them and then fall back.. If it's even possible to overmake medivacs from one starport.

On April 21 2013 15:58 PVJ wrote: Why arent Z s utilising Vipers or baiting mines with locusts?
1) Whirlwind is too big to use locusts defensively, as a quick unburrow+move to a different area is no problem 2) Vipers are pretty expensive when you constantly have to remake ling/bane to stay alive vs drops and bio all over the place, along with bio mobility leaving blinding not very effective since they just back up. 3) Flash actually didn't leave a ton of burrowed mines in the middle for that long-mostly his mines were traveling with his army, so Rare couldn't just locust walk through a minefield because he didn't know where the mines were before he was forced to engage 4) Rare committed to infestors and so didn't have the money to also get SH or viper

As long as he doesn't lose to an all-in he just macros his way ahead, trades decently and never takes his foot off the other guy's throat. I wouldn't say the mu is broken but Flash vs Z certainly is.

Guys stop saying Terran is OP based off of Flash's games. Seriously if Flash didn't totally roflstomp that zerg there would problem with terran. One of the best terrans in the world is making TvZ look easy doesn't mean anything.

It's pretty funny that people got so used to unknown zergs with no accomplishments to speak of beating top-end terrans all the time in WoL that they think it should be the same way in HoTs.

no one is saying terran is OP based of Flash's games (mostly like based on statistics). Its just dumb people saying that flash makes the match up look broken when the match up is in fact broken. Even blizzard already said that mines are gonna get nerfed

Commercials. This is a TV broadcast you know.

Any other Terran player, I believe, would rush for some timing attack or build a 3rd CC, after seeing the Zerg's 3rd expo. But Flash just kept calm, stuck to his gameplan, harass-macro beautifully without overcommitting, and still stayed ahead. Amazing.

I was just replying the guy. He still thinks for some reason that pros thinks that zvt is balanced

To be totally honest. Look at Life a mere 3-4 days after launch. He played magnificently versus them. He made ZvT imbalanced just by playing well. Flash shows great mine usage, but this wasn't an indicator of his skill.
Flash is playing versus a nervous second timer in PL. That second timer is playing versus Flash. It's hard, man.

It means nothing. Flash is just being Flash. In BW PvT it was usually the Terrans who complained about the matchup and If you saw these games it looked like the matchup was completely one-sided in Terran's favor. It actually LOOKED imba.

I thought rare played solid, if not magical or perfect. He didn't make any rookie mistakes, and held on well against Flash's multi-prong harrass.
Compared his play to barracks', who just fell apart, really.

WMs admittedly don't look OP to me when it's not someone like Innovation or especially Flash using them. But when I see Flash use them against Zerg I just don't see what the Zerg could have done, even with Life-like control. I hope we see Life vs Flash in the GSL in a BO5 or in the finals, that should settle things.

wms can get countered by sniping muta flocks, good ling micro and they get shat on by ultras, I don't see any problem whenever I offrace zerg, on the contrary.

If Hydra closes it out now, Aligulac goes 6/6. Then again, the last two games (and maybe Zest-Bong) are the only ones that have reasonable doubt in outcome.

The only problem with mines it require extra APM for zerg to find them and clean them, but a player like Life seems able to do it, I guess people will improve with times
Havent seen a terran yet switching mine location between denotation to avoid losing them... but this day will happen :D

Such a nice hold by hydra. Cacia had like 50 zerglings and 10 banelings before Hydra made a first roach he ballin so hard

For some reason, whenever I watch KT play, when Flash wins, KT loses, and vice versa.

flash vs rare was pretty nice, a good example of a "standard" tvz, although his early timing wasn't defended very well by rare it seems he lost a lot of drones to the drop and simultaneous push.
the calls by our casters were off as per usual, hyping possible roach aggression when the timing of the roach den (after third hatch, flash hadn't dropped a 3rd cc yet) could only be for defensive purposes..
|
Flash played excellently against Rare. Great use of mutalisks, but Flash's tactics were so on point... astounding gameplay.

All-ins are quite standard in this type of contest. Both sides want to play big entertaining matches, but that just won't happen unless they keep each other honest. All-ins every now and then keep players from happily committing outrageously greedy play, which would otherwise definitely happen too much.
