Avenge and Sniper were actually close friends while Avenge was on MVP Sniper expressed sadness at knocking Avenge out of Code A last year (those were good games btw). Coincidence? :D Also treme seems to lots of the schoolings. I wasn't sure if I should stay up for this, but since Avenge is starting I'll play sum fox news college hoops '99 until its game time

Avenge hasn't won yet? What's taking so long?
I wonder if they fixed the Broodlord graphics glitch.
I'm liking the metagame shift towards Gateway first expands and Hatch first in ZvP recently. There is more depth and variety in a match-up that was going incredibly bland with the FFEs and 14 Pool into three Hatch.

can't you still cannon rush a hatch first with a reactive forge after gateway (either cancel the gateway for earlier forge, or let it finish and boost a zealot)

Avenge, why so much money floating???
Avenge playing really badly.
Avenge seems flustered after the Gateway + Phoenix pressure failed.
question is, will DRG see Avenge's choke, and raise him...

holy fuck avenge, so good
drg =[ please come back to your true form
yeah you need fungal and ultras or something to fight that many stalkers ;o
DRG why did you take that base man
I am not very impressed with avenge tbh
Poor DRG, can't catch a break. I don't know what's wrong with him, it's not like Avenge even played well.
Avenge takes it! missed the whole middle, what happened?
is this early wings of liberty? I just saw roach hydra corruptor vs stalker colossus, on even supply with protoss ahead on upgrades.
HotS has really taken its toll on DRG I believe though!
Avenge continues to rise, DRG continues to fall. Seriously. I think the only thing I've seen DRG win in awhile was that series against MC in code S
DRG might need to take like a week off or something
I find it strange how WoL Zergs who were accustomed to Lair-style units like Roach/Hydra and Muta/Ling haven't been doing so hot in HotS despite the expansion focusing more on Lair Zerg units more than ever. DRG and HyuN have been struck with this strange curse.

And ST has a really strong protoss player again. That didn't take long.
man, I love seeing that many stalkers! damn! overlay keeps improving too, looks awesome.. especially the worker/army supply tabs, they look great now. great job avenge!

It's really odd because in this game in particular if DRG went for the Vipers instead of the Corrupters it would've been so much more benefitial. Corrupters don't do enough dps against the Collossi so they get way too many shots off. Abducts deal with Collossi right away and then the blinding cloud >>>>>> corruption. I feel the Corrupter barely has a place in this game anymore.

His era was end of 2011 till his first GSL win. Then it went on a slow decline as there was a small period of infighting between Nestea, DRG, Leenock, and Symbol. Life emerged the winner.

NesTea never contended for best zerg in 2012 and Symbol was hyped in season 3, but DRG made it farther. It was basically DRG from Jan-June with a bad performance in season 2 and losing twice to MKP in there and then Life from season 4-end and Leenock did well at times too but it was really DRG and Life.

I feel like DRG's reign extended for a few more months after his gsl win. He made 4 MLG finals throughout the spring and into the summer, all was going well. Then MC happened... Eventually recovered to make it to the finals of the osl then got another heartbreaking ass wooping by Rain. After that he played 2nd fiddle to Life and Leenock (imo Symbol too, but he never posted the results to cement this).

I'd say it was a battle. DRG got a ro4, but Symbol got 2 ro8s and a lot of silvers in foreign tournaments. Nestea got too many 3rd places at foreign events to just ignore. Leenock and Life dominated the latter half of the year though.

It really was, I mean, a player who reached the peak of absolute success fell to a hard slump after trying to represent his hometown twice in two different tournaments. DRG never recovered after Ro4 against MC and GSTL against FXO, which is a shame because we saw how good he could be at his full strength, which we may never see.

ZeNEX is the best team in the GSTL
I understand what opterown went through now... now all I need to do is start a fight with an esports personality
NAKSEO seems like a reasonable choice, he is a strong overall Zerg who can take out Avenge.
time to finally either give Terran a late game unit or change races to not have 1 death-ball composition and a-move. And also, i feel like it should be harder for a player to beat the other, not only have 1 better engagement

yeah basically every player except like 3 would die for DRG's success he had in WoL, but still, DRG could've had so much more. He has so many 2nd places (Blizzard Cup, 2 MLGs, Iron Squid, OSL..)

Flash is probably shaking in his boots after seeing that game. Avenge is coming for you, Flash.

MVP needs to send out a toss here. But Monster has beaten Avenge in the past (muta contain i think)
NAKSEO just may be the best Korean Zerg who never reached Code S.

Well no, I think DRG recovered well enough. He still got 2nd in OSL, narrowly lost to Life in the Blizzard cup and again in the Iron Squid 2 finals and could still consistently retain code S and make the ro16. He just wasn't the best Zerg nor even the top 3. Post-HotS is a different story though..

Let's be fair and pretend this game didn't even happen.
Out of 80 games played this season, 56 contained at least one Terran.
This is so smart for avenge, he built both gases in the mine then built only the one in the natural the overlord can see, stopped mining one from his main and mined that.

Now that push could have done a lot, but Avenge was sloppy with his micro, especially that MsC.
Avenge really messed up his micro there losing mamaship core and two sentries to two queens.

I actually believe that both NAKSEO and Super have a change against life. Life is still a monster though.

Is Treme good now or still decent?
Honestly I don't even know anymore, lol. I just can't get him off my team with a decent trade so I'm hoping he can at least do something this season. Seemed decent in the pre-season.

Did GSTL always have this much downtime?

Honestly im kinda sad at how poorly the esf-kespa competition is going. Kespa is going to take over gsl so much faster than i thought

Pretty ironic considering Life is playing
So what the hell is going on with this 50 minute break??
Looks like Life is having computer/setup problems.

Tech issues most likely. I appreciate Wolfdor discussing the issue of marketability and personality in the SC2 scene, which is relevant to recent days.
what are they waiting for...
omg I'm going to stop updating this thread and go play something else at this rate.

Yeah what is the delay about? Did they say?
They're waiting for Life to turn 17.
Lol I kept getting scared I'd miss a game, but kept coming back to the casters talking about stuff, until I was sure that I missed the entire game. Turns out I hadn't missed anything.
DRG is like "hell, those phoenixes are too fast!"

I try a time-count of break. GSL yields ten minutes sharp, SPL one is around seven minutes. Dunno about GSTL but it's been age since the last game, technical problem or not

This. But I do a lot more then manage a puny calender like control your precious FPL points muhaha! Just wait until I get control of FGSTL too
Of course Wolf would digress into discussing hair.
I was missing the hair conversation already...
Meanwhile Effort is 9 pool baneling cheesing Revival in PL.
Oh god. This time filling is glorious.
Well at least I had enough time to do my taxes and run a marathon during the break.
Life with only a 65% winrate vs Z. So weak.

So i guess avenge is pretty good
Wow life got owned hard there

NAKSEO!!!!! Yeah boi!!!!!! Get out life!
Man, what was that Life
GO HOME LIFE YOU'RE DRUNK
terrible play by life. these big bane attacks are kinda bad for this reason. 2 banes can kill like 8
Sweet, I want dat Bomber!
Life tries to comeback, WoL style
I do enjoy seeing Life lose.
monster shoulda just killed the infestation pit prior to infestors but thats a moot point anyways.
There is something satisfying with seeing Life lose, its like seeing a supposedly invincible monster being stopped by the brave hero.

Life not taking a game makes me feel a bit better about DRG not taking a game

To be fair to him it is almost impossible to avoid a hit like that when there are so many banelings.
you're supposed to make a train of two banelings at a time, not go in with a group of 8. nacho wasn't cutting any corners, he had some spines, and he had lings out to make mass baneling (instead of only banking for mutas)
Oh come on, the players I buy always end up losing ;;
Some questionable decision making by life, but his micro was really good lol. imo zvz is a pretty meh matchup :/
Life aggression is sometimes his bane.

sort of why the attack is bad in the first place...it's just a coinflip, hoping your opponent only has 1-2 banes. And why would he only have 1-2 banes if he sees 40 lings streaming across the map? just a bad attack at that point in the game.
Very standard stuff from Bomber.
gotta do a nice, pre-planned roach-bane all-in to kill before the spire tech.
monster playing like a fucking boss
This is the worst, just as you attack and you have to micro, you see that a bunch of lings are ravaging your mineral line, so you micro 2 or 3 things there to handle it, and when you come back your push is getting banelinged.
NACHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO go go go!
I only have bad times on this map.
this macro is so un-bomber like, only 5 marines at a time until 12 mins?
From this game, bomber does not look like a GSL champion at all. I hope he has better stuff to show in the Ro8.
Bomber is really wierd. If he's going to play like that against RorO, he will get 3-0'd.
If Bomber is going to struggle this badly against NAKSEO, imagine how badly Symbol would dismantle him.
Bomber, CONTINUING to not hurt my anti. :D

Just when you thought Bomber was going to do well, you remember his TvZ isn't good.
holy shit nakseo calm down man.
Nacho is pretty good at zerg tho. Good skill toi have.
The Startale players aren't looking so great, but holy crap, Monster wrecking it!
Such a bad game by Bomber wtf T.T
even considering bomber mistakes I gotta say nakseo is a monster
Symbol is going to slap Bomber around next week...unless Bomber is just hiding his zerg stuff
And now Curisou will counter attack some mains. Good.

Solid defense by Curious, very collected and calm throughout the game.
1 base ling/baneling is so much more fun than muta or roach ZvZ.

but 14/14 with baneling nest before speed? what does that do, against anything? especially with the enclosed natural.

Herpderp forcefields DURRR E: To be fair Curious should've engaged in a much better location than a small choke... Goddamnit.
Why move 90% of your army back through a choke that can be cut off with 3 forcefields? Not a great idea...

Flawless execution by Super. Just as expected. Great forcefields too.
I thought MVP was so dead after Keen and DRG lost, but so happy now
This reminds me of when Protoss were abusing forcefields with 1/2 base all-ins in WoL. Looks very disgusting to play against...this is why having Massive units counter forcefields is not enough.

The tumour clearing with obs-msc played a major role in winning Super the game. Roach Hydra loses so much space to maneuver without the creep.

But if you use triple double, every protoss player that wins can quote Ice Cube.
Alternatively we can call it the WW double W's double double :OOO Besides WW is also a gg in korean right?

Now this was a pretty damn good FGSTL week. From rank 700 or something like that to 52 and I didn't even trade at all this entire season. Has to be the first time in my life that being lazy does me good :D
Does anyone have the build order for that 9 min colossus build? Super moves out @9:20 with 2 immortals + 1 colossus with second one following as well as thermal lance researching. That's ridiculously fast. Edit: Did he get +1 attack? I forgot to check.
Well Super's FF wasn't that good. It's more of Curious' being dumb and losing units than good FFs.
