Didn't you see those meticulously placed cannons, they were placed so the one on the low ground could hold off the probes far enough, but still close enough to the nexus to hit it. This build requires a lot of preparation, both physically and mentally. I'm surprised someone like Genius' caliber could pull it off. I only expected players like PartinG, Rain and maybe First to be able to do this. this cannonrush is completly standard. if youre not absolutly retarded, you place the cannons correctly. this build appears in 20% of all pvps, and its executed in the EXACT same way, despite it taking 1 more cannon on most maps to reach the nexus. it wasnt close to being a super good game, it was 1 player messing up greatly and not knowing how to react to a normally executed build (to be fair, there is nothing to do better doing this as well) | ||

Didnt grubby ladder lately at all? :O this happens so often, i also like to do it myself. i even had to deal with this twice on the exact same position on this map :/ 100% agree. | ||

MMMM is standard, ling bling muta is standard. This? This was a masterpiece by Genius. He broke Grubby mentally. I wouldn't be surprised if Grubby fell out 0 - 2. This cannon rush was measured out by Genius, just like Flash measures out his keyboard and monitor before each game. A masterpiece on Yeonsu! edit: And if you don't believe, send Day9 an email to analyse this game as a Day9 daily | ||
