Sick city. Thought Zest had lost when he lost his army in Rain's base.

I thought Zest would be in a bad position there after Rain defended the first push. The way he dealt with Rain's contain attempt was so dismissive, I loved it.

With this, we go into Game 5 of Zest vs. Rain! We all know that if it's game 5, the standing must be 2 maps each, and as Tasteless says very eloquently: "It's a best of 3 now!"

Also, Artosis going "He got owned a bit", which almost sounds as if he regrets cursing Rain at the very beginning.

But! Here we go, ladies and gents, enough of the talk. Time for..

Rain 2 vs 2 Zest, Game 5: Heavy Rain!

Let's see if Zest brought an umbrella, huehuehue

0:00 Twich lagging. Huge lag. Zest looking concerned, while Rain got the poker face on that Boxer must've tought him.


0:30 crowd bashing Diablo III, Artosis using that to promote it
2:00 Artosis and Tasteless still ranting on D3:RoS, sick camera dodge from a "fan". Show some balls, man.
3:00 then again, some guy in the crowd is really into not-really drinking Hot6, whatever he wants to say with that.
3:00, too: precise production shows Hot6 advertisement. That guy is on point!
3:30 2nd gateway for Rain. I assume there'll be blink soon. Which is a spell that is totally not supported by current map pool.
4:00 Zest not throwing down any early tech so far, maybe because Rain's probe is lurking around his base. He built a zealot though, so we might see a small poke soon..
4:30 ..which will be punished hard by Rain's second gateway, I'm pretty sure.
5:00 Or maybe I'm not so sure anymore, since Zest goes for three gates now in total, plus robotics. Guess he doesn't want to die to DTs, again. Also, my blink prediction was wrong, Rain just going 3 gate, too.
6:00 the robo might give Zest the edge vs. the three gates of Rain. Funny positioning on the map, armies miss themselves. Zest in the main of Rain, forces a nexus cannon.


6:40 Rain forcing a nexus cannon for Zest with three stalkers, but concentrates on defensive warpins.
7:20 Zest still pushes on Rain's base, Rain pulls probs but seems to have the advantage. Nice forcefields from Zest, blocking out some stalkers of Rain's main
8:00 Zest losing the fight in Rain's main, which opens him up for a counter attack (since he has a huge worker lead now, 17-23)
8:30 Zest's robo should be his backup plan now, since there's no blink
8:40 Rain trying to go blink. Funny.


9:20 Zest warped in a single zealot to harass, but it get's blocked . It didn't scout the twilight though.
10:00 Blink started for Rain, chrono'ed
10:10 GREAT Immortal drop on Rain's containing stalkers! Zest seems to be ahead currently, already two immortals up and blink far away from completion.
10:30 Zest moves out w/ those immortals + warp prism
11:00 Rain misses lasering down the rocks, loses a sentry for free. His expand attempt will probably not work.
11:30 HUGE forcefields for Zest (watch the VOD!!!), elevates his army now up into Rain's main. Wow, that spiraled totally out of control for Rain - GG!




Your host would like to announce a funny contest for in-between: whoever creates a gif for the following points:

3:00 then again, some guy in the crowd is really into not-really drinking Hot6, whatever he wants to say with that.
2:00 Artosis and Tasteless still ranting on D3:RoS, sick camera dodge from a "fan". Show some balls, man.

gets an honorary mention in my signature .

I guess I'll add this. When they both opened with gates, Rain went on the defense, Zest went on the offense. It looked like Zest was going to be worse off because he was going to be surrounded but he warped in a sentry and forced Rain to pull probes to defend.

He then did it again.

He inevitably lost that initial army but did so much damage that Rain couldn't do enough to come back.

what did he do, was having a dump and now it is 2-2 instead of 2-0. The power of lazers.

Btw at TvT vs PvP, did anyone see WCS EU today/yesterday? I mean MMA vs MVP vs Bunny?
Cool back and forth games, constant action etc.
And here... wait wait wait... 1 fight, win/lose

yesterday's games were terrible. and he didn't do anything he acted like he would drink a hot6ix but he didn't. no idea wtf is going on in his head

the games may not have been "highest skill level" but they were waaaay more exciting than what I see here...

thx for the update on the guy. thought he actually did something cool :D

ok this game was better then expected, it was back and forth 1x


That sums up.
You are not expecting anything good. So why your opinion don´t count.
Its biased from the beginning.

Yeah, that FF out of Rain's 3 reinforcing Stalkers was crucial.

Good (but not great) series. Zest outplaying Rain.

Edit/ Last game was the best of the series.

no i am not expecting anything really, so i can be surprised in either way.
but I am biased in a way that other matchups are more thrilling to watch

Only way I can be disapopointed: I expect TOO MUCH. THink about it. Think about goint to a movie where you expect much and on the other hand going to a movie expecting nothing
