Terran in the group? Who the hell is gonna watch this. plz fix Blizzard. qqqqqqqq
Full night's rest for me derf
==
On a more serious note, I'm interested to see how Maru deals with Myungsik's annoying phoenix PvT. Emotion tried Myungsik's style and Maru just contained him with a field of turrets and a PF. Dunno if it will work on a more skilled toss.
Maru 2-1 Myungsik Paralyze 1-2 DRG DRG 2-1 Maru (Surely DRG has learned to hold 2-rax again....right?) Paralyze 0-2 Myungsik Maru 2-0 Myungsik
No believe in Paralyze? :D 7/7 quarterfinals SKT T1 #thedream.
Maru 2-0 MyungSik with tons of phoenixes. Paralyze 0-2 DRG Maru 1-2 DRG MyungSik 1-2 Paralyze Maru 1-2 Paralyze
But if Maru wins against DRG, then Maru and DRG, Paralyze's PvZ is just not Code S level. And sadly, SKT T1 are on a break, so i guess, soO, SoulKey and Dark didn't help him a lot ):
I love Maru, but getting Terran eliminated makes me laugh on those threads so hard sometimes so i don't even.
FFW_Rude doesn't like Boxerfred, but might start liking him, if he LRs properly. Boxerfred obviously doesn't LR properly.
Artosis prediction chaos, if Paralyze wins. Tasteless would love to see Maru + DRG advance (looks like he also wanted Bomber to win something in 2012?). Rant on "korean terrans are being missing in GSL". Anyone in for a fund to help korean terrans back into the spotlight?
Myungsik feels like being happy that he rekt Code A, thinks his matches gonna be tough, but thinks he can make it (generic korean interview I guess). Quote: "My attitude has altered a little bit. And I practice a lot." Though he apparently took 3 days off before going into hardcore practice, mainly focused on ladder. He aims to go deeper in Code S this time than last time, since he was eliminated pretty early.
DRG, freakin' 12 times in a row in Code S, says basically that he plays like he always does (not going too well, is it?). He's not thinking too much about his Code S consistency, but I guess he enjoys it RG smile comin' up*. Regarding this group, he's saying it's not too much of a difference to the last time being in Code S. Tough opponents, but of course he's confident in what he's doing - he learned much from other players, is going to do his best, and - did he really say this? - "Thanks to Artosis for being great" - I think that was some on-the-fly thing from the translator.
(If there were more interviews beforehand, I must've missed them. Sorry then! Great job by tasteless, translating on the fly must be hard, especially in Korean.)
So, guys, enjoy the stuff that's coming towards you!
So, even before the game, there's a log-in problem with Myungsik. It won't need too long I hope (and with too long I mean Stephano ZvZ Swarm Host long / Twich breaking WCS EU Ro32 long).

Sick heavy metal music going on. #dedkpop might go full trending mode on Twitter. Tasteless calling something about "new age protoss", but here we go! Metal music switches to some techno/trance stuff, and the epic introduction starts.

See, I would disagree with Artosis there. TY hasn't shown much in terms of individual performance. The only notable players he beat at Dreamhack were Bunny and Serral. As far as we know right now, he's still just a clan warrior. I'd say Innovation and Bbyong probably round out the Top 3 Terrans in Korea right now.

Anything other than reaper opening in TvP is just suicide imo. You have to waste a scan now if your Maru to check wtf Toss is doing. Blink All in / Stargate / Fast Colli / Templar all this shit takes a different response, he is in the dark to much ;_;

2:00 Barracks plus Gate going down, so far, so standard. One gas for Myungsik being started. 2:45 Rather early scout hitting Maru's base, seeing no gas taken so far. Zealet being started. 3:20 CC for Maru on the way, Zealot gets cancelled. SCV sees that, but the Nexus has already been put down. 4:00 Second gas being taken by Myungsik, Maru adding additional 2 barracks, still no gas. 4:30 MSC hovering around, pretending he got a job to do, but in reality he's just being lazy. 5:00 Robo for Myungsick, also forge - standard stuff into colossus I guess? By now, Maru has added his double gas. 6:00 Protoss 38 - 40 Terran. Techlab on barracks starting stim.

bbyong top 3 anything makes me sad
He doesn't impress me at all, and the first real impression of him I had was seeing him go for the dame bad build twice in a row against ABomb at IEM. But his results, compared to the other Terrans in the KR region right now...

Warp prism with 2 immortals going for a drop. 8:40 Maru's army chills at his natural. That warp prism (which just chills outside of Maru's main) could do damage! 9:00 Observer sees Maru leave, instantly sends warpprism in to the main. Tries to snipe a reactor, doesn't do too much. 9:50 Warpprism gets killed, both immortals die. +1 attack started for Myungsik, Medivacs are out by now. 10:20 Maru moving out again, only 2 no-range colossus are in his way to victory - oh, and forcefields.

Myungsik pushes out with blink and two colossus, pushes part of Maru's army back. 13:00 double drop in the main of Myungsik is being deflected, Maru being pushed back in to his natural. 13:30 Maru has his third out though, and manages to sandwich Myungsiks army near the watchtower. 14:00 looks like Maru has not enough, colossi still alove, they just start to go down. 14:30 Maru 124 - 82 Myungsik. Though the protoss didn't die, his last colossus gets gunned down now - GG!

The only notable players he beat at Dreamhack were Bunny and Serral. As far as we know right now, he's still just a clan warrior. I'd say Innovation and Bbyong probably round out the Top 3 Terrans in Korea right now.
Results = skill?
TY looked destructively good at Dreamhack.
how else do you define skill? in apm?
Defining skill by results means you will be completely clueless any time the game is imbalanced. That doesn't seem very useful to me.

Ya, that fight shouldn't of been like that. He should of been pushed back way into his natural and really clutch defend those colli without any vikings. However, his is 2 maurader micro hunting down collis with the 2 vikings that popped out he was forcing protoss to micro 1 unit whilst small bio forces + medivacs eat up stalkers. Defiantly a good point made with his micro.

0:00 Upper left corner, Maru spawns. He looks unimpressed. 0:00 Lower right corner, Myungsik spawns. He looks sad.
2:00 Gate, barracks, normal stuff, nothing too fancy. Looks like Myungsik is going same build as before. Maru switches: one gas. 2:45 Probe enters Maru's base, scouts one gas this time. 3:10 Uh-oh - Probe leaves Maru's base, but no reaper incoming, instant factory for Maru.

Maru seemed to expect stargate play on this map so he went widow mine drop in order to force the oracle to give detection in the protoss main and not kill scvs

It's kinda weird when you realize that the seeding of every group in the Round of 32 was by the results of last season. First group had the champ, next group had the runner-up, next 2 groups had the semifinalists, now we're starting on the quarterfinalists.
Starting Map: Frost LE (which might be my garden, currently. The night was really cold. Fuck this, it's May!)
Fun fact: Artosis still plays qualifiers (but meets TOP, which sucks for him). Fun fact: The fuck happened to afrotoss's afro? I guess SKT does that to people.
0:00 Paralyze spawning in the top left corner. 0:00 DRG spwaning in the top right corner. 0:30 "he got the tongue out. means he's in a zone, artosis." Yep, Paralyze has his tongue out. DRG gives a look of disgust. 2:00 15Pool for DRG 2:20 Nexus first for Paralyze 2:30-3:00 Hatch going down for DRG, Forge for Paralyze. 3:20 Scout of Paralyze sees the hatchery of DRG, is probably happy due to his Nexus first, but sad due to his forge. You cannot CR this. 3:50 double gas for Paralyze 4:30 Third for DRG at the bottom position being planted, some lings out on the map try to earn money, but have no job to do. 5:00 Zealot being built. Nothing crazy so far, Tastosis talking about that Coast Guard movie with Kevin Kostner and Ashton 'where's the old lady' Kutcher.

5:30 Stargate for Paralyze, nothing but drones for DRG. 6:30 Stargate finishing, instant phoenix production started. 7:00 Lair for DRG on the way, still drone, drones, drones. Gas 3+4 taken for DRG. 7:20 Normal reaction for zerg to phoenix: more drones. 7:30 3 more gates for Paralyze. This is boring. YOU DON'T GET 5 STARS IN A LR THREAD WITH THAT; GUYS! 8:10 Third base for protoss, +1 attack finishing, colossus tech started. 8:30 Phoenixes being annoying, nothing too much happening. Hydra dent up for DRG, starting range. 9:00 +1 attack started for DRG, 10 hydras on the way, but first colossus + range is already started. 9:30 Phoenix production has stopped at 4, no 4th base so far from DRG. Looks like he wants to hit the 3rd of Paralyze? 10:00 Now he's getting his fourth. Phoenixes being annoying at DRG's natural, killing gas drones. 10:30 lots and lots of lings and hydras on the way, Paralyze has only two sentries - the colossus can't get a really good angle! 11:00 Nexus being focused down, and it falls! DRG gets the 3rd base right before the 2nd colossus joins the fray. Nice timing! 11:30 Due to the lack of sentries, Paralyze cannot really move out too far on the back. Hive started for DRG. 12:00 P 104 - 131 Z 12:30 Third colossus out now. Another 10 drones plus a spire for DRG.

15:00 Engagement between natural and third, feedback/abduct war which goes so far in favor of Paralyze. Nice storms landing on the army, first pull on the colossus but it survives!! 16:00 Z 178 - 100 P 16:10 Paralyze still holding the third. Although, since DRG is one base up, every decent trade is a good trade for him. Corruptors are being added now. 16:40 Warp prism entering DRGs main, so far, no defense 17:00 GET THAT STATIC D, is what DRG thinks and does. First brood lords being morphed in. 17:45 8 Brood Lords moving over the map. It looks like Paralyze is pretty much dead. Void Rays are being built, but this might just be too late. 18:00 Pushing with the Brood lords, storms are being sick though - but apparently, it's just not enough. Triple abduct by the vipers on the colossus - and GG!
tl;dr: DRG played solid and was better, that timing on the third base won him the game.

0:00 Paralyze spawning in the top right. 0:00 DRG spawning in the bottom left. 2:00 Nexus first for Paralyze into gateway 3:00 Double hatch first for DRG into, well, pool. Awkward. 3:30-4:00 Nexus finishing, core being built. Scout in DRG's main, seeing what's happening. Gas starting for DRG (not sure if scouted, don't think so). 4:40 Stargate for Paralyze, "Oh look at that cybernetics core is done" - "now we can talk about the game". Gotta love Tastosis. 5:20 Paralyze finishing his wall-off at natural with gate, core and two pylons. Lingspeed started for DRG. 6:00 MSC goes a bit out on the map, Phoenix production started.

7:00 Forge on the way, overlords getting hunted down. More lings in production 7:30 3rd base for Paralyze. Lings scouting and trying to deny it, Paralyze is actually in a bad spot there. 8:00 Phoenixes getting a creeping queen of DRG, but the 3rd has to be cancelled. 46 probes to 43 drones though, which is okay-ish I guess. 8:30 Colossus tech started now, guess I missed the robo. Sorry! 9:00 Hydra dent, Roach warren, drones, drones, drones - but also, +1 melee attacks almost done for DRG. Strange stuff! 9:30 Fun fact: as last game, Paralyze stays on two sentries, which opens him up for some attacks. 10:00 Spoken attack hits, lings only killing zealots and both sentries, third probably being denied again. 10:30 P 80 - 100 Z, third canceled. Fun fact: only unit out currently for P is MSC and Colossus. 11:00 DRG still pressuring Paralyze, killing the rocks on his side of the map to open up more ways. 11:30 Tenthousand lings actually kill more sentries and almost get a colossus. Corruptors on the way for DRG. Is that DRG in championship form, or is that Paralyze playing passively? 12:00 Seriously, isn't protoss supposed to all-in from time to time? If minute 7 3rd base doesn't work, go for immortals and have fun.. 12:30 Lingroachcorruptor appears to be strong. Third base attempt with 2 colossus now, but 10 corruptors can kill that. 13:30 Gotta fix that, 10 corruptors did kill those collossus, although it wasn't the cleanest attack for DRG. 14:00 more roaches on the way, 4th for DRG, but: Paralyze holds his 3rd, it finished for the first time. 14:30 P 115 - 140 Z. DRG just spent his 1.5k/1k bank on roach/corruptors. 14:45 more void rays being added to the mix, which helps the protoss a lot. But the sick city stuff vs roaches is Forcefields + Immortals? 15:30 3 Colossus out, engagement incoming. So far, it goes quite well, since the corruptors do not focus the colossus. Now he does, but he lost so much already! 16:00 Obviously, doesn't matter. 16:00-17:30 Phone call over here. Sorry, missed that part. 18:00 Paralyze refuses to die. Raceswitch to terran incoming. 18:00 On a more serious note: he actually lives on - having void rays and colossus, adding more and more blink stalkers to the mix. Artosis calls that "garbage", I think though that it's not too bad against roach/corruptor - I might be wrong.

0:00 Paralyze spawning in the top right. 0:00 DRG spawning in the bottom left. 2:00 Nexus first for Paralyze into gateway 3:00 Double hatch first for DRG into, well, pool. Awkward. 3:30-4:00 Nexus finishing, core being built. Scout in DRG's main, seeing what's happening. Gas starting for DRG (not sure if scouted, don't think so). 4:40 Stargate for Paralyze, "Oh look at that cybernetics core is done" - "now we can talk about the game". Gotta love Tastosis. 5:20 Paralyze finishing his wall-off at natural with gate, core and two pylons. Lingspeed started for DRG. 6:00 MSC goes a bit out on the map, Phoenix production started.

I don't know about that, Myungsik has interesting ideas in PvZ, I wouldn't expect DRG to just roll him

I always disable chat. There is usually so much stupidity in there. Seeing that shit in the sidebar is just irritating as fuck.

4:00 Reaper damaging two drones to like 1hp, but DRG saves them. 4:30 Second reaper joining the fray. 5:00 Lemme quote Artosis to what's going on: "Basically perfect control from both players" which is right. 5:30 3rd reaper joins his friends, a queen gets beaten but survives. #FEMEN incoming. 6:00 Nothing happening except Maru builds a 3rd CC and DRG puts down his 3rd hatchery. Hellions being started. 6:30 Stim being researched. Yes, of course for DRG. Stupid. 7:00 Second gas for DRG, Hellion/Reaper attacking the third. No creep in sight so far, that might force at least some more lings. 7:30 No, it doesn't. DRG doesn't give a fuck, sends three queens. He researched speed though, and there's a pack of roughly 20 lings setting up for a catch. 8:00 Brawl at DRG's third, no losses for each players. Sick control! "Pretty perfectly so far" - Artosis. "What's your favourite colour?" - Tasteless 'I don't like TvZ currently'. 9:00 3rd CC for Maru lifting into position. Moar barracks inc., upgrades started for both players, pretty equal. We might have a game, guys!
Tasteless missed the obvious answer. If I was about to die, and I could turn into a building, I'd do it, and then I'd cancel myself and become healthy again.

10:00 Decent creep spread so far by DRG, though the eastern entrance of his 3rd is kind of vulnerable because there are no tumors at all. Might create some windows for Maru around the time DRG decides to take a 4th. 10:30 Maru 108 - 122 DRG, who's just setting up to push Maru's third via the outer left line. 11:00 Wall+Bunker at Maru's third. Composition-wise he seems to rely on his marine micro, and some mines. 11:30 Spire started, 2/2 for DRG is on point. A flock of marines kills DRG's 4th (no cancel). See what I said? No creep! 12:00 Pushes are being initiated, reaper/hellion/marines cleaning creep. Some banelings are already there, but DRG looks indecisive, trying to counterattack on Maru's third. Not working at all (there's a wall). 13:00 push on DG's third, widow mines do hit decently, but still, DRG manages to clean it up. Maru's reinforcements were at his home, so he'll lose some medivacs to mutas now.

14:00 4th hatch being put down again, Maru regathering his troops and initiating another push. DRG really doesn't like his missing creep spread in the east of his third now, but still, cleans kind of up. Widowmines hit mutas, but not too much damage being dealt. I wish I had a GomTV subscription so I had less pixels. 15:00 Maru 135 - 150 DRG, no hive in sight, but an expand happening on the left now, which would be DRG's 5th base. 16:00 Maru regathering his troops. We might see a rinse and repeat with better fights for the zerg? 3 3 upgrades about 50% through now, when those kick in, that might change things. Late 4th CC of Maru incoming, just being built. 17:00 Infestation pit for DRG, a drop forces the mutas out of position while Maru's main army engages the third again, dropping the 4th in the meantime. DRG holds his third rather effortlessly, but Maru trades equally. The 4th falls to the drop. 18:00 Z 172 - 152 T, Maru is spread out with his drops which get cleaned up now without doing too much damage.

19:00 3 3 finishing for Maru. This is where the fun starts. Also, he takes his 4th, but DRG pushes out and forces a battle at the watchtowers, but fails to overwhelm Maru! 19:30 Maru 150 - 145 DRG. The tides might just have turned. 20:00 Maru again pushing the third. It's almost Polt-esque. Mutas harassing Maru's third in the meanwhile, and banelings try to defend at home, but fail. Mutas in the natural of Maru now, 3rd of DRG dies, Maru loads everything in and leaves. 20:30 Lots of stuff dying on the whole map, looks like DRG is in trouble! 21:00 Hellyeah, he is - this trade wasn't too grade, the mutas off position might have cost him the game. And yes - GG!

It's always hard to call, because muta ling/bling can snowball really hard, if you lose too many units.
Maru is so good, his economy was so perfectly set up to always be able to reload armies without wasting investments on unnecessary mining. Also his micro is fucking sick

A lot of good baneling hits, but the 7rax parade marches on, leaving the mutas solo vs the marines and they have to push back Maru trying to kill the 4th but once on creep DRG holds again. Supply now equal. A lot of mutas died though. 16 min push again from Maru, but not enough banelings leave DRG to fight marines with mutas, so that's GG

it doesn't quite happen to everyone though, but maru's wrist posture has always been a bit strange
regarding the fact that they're doing esports for years and years and years in korea now, shouldn't they have found a way to deal with that stuff by now preventively?
Did Maru just have a greedier opener than DRG? I'm still a little confused as to how Terran can attack at that point, be up on upgrades and like 25-30 supply vs one of the best macro zergs that exists...?
I wonder if its even worth making mutas vs maru as you will never be able to attack with harass with them, litterally the only use is to pick of medivacs that try to fly into your main base to drop, otherwise they are just too well protected.

OL kill plus the wasted lings from DRG did lots of eco dmg early imo.

not really - i don't know the specifics of it, but even in other sports like soccer or something injuries are still very very common, there are some things which you can't just solve i guess

I think the mutas are there to do what you said, but also to kill retreating units as your ling/blings attack. And to slowly try to reach an awesome flock of 40+ mutas which, while maybe not an automatic gg, are so incredibly powerful that Zerg will have a decisive advantage to win the game

drg lost his overlord in the early game, which is pretty big. then he went for like 8 zerglings imidietly which is not needed at all against 1rax expand. on top of that maru went 3command without gas which is absolutely greedy. then both just played it out normal from there and maru was ahead. for some reason drgs upgrades were really really late and i dont know why. his creep spread on his 4th was also lackluster considering there was almost no harass what so ever to deny creep spread

Sure, but I'm not talking about thinks like in soccer, when you get fouled, your body is being damaged (which is not really preventable). Soccer teams do have one or more guys that take care of the player's bodies before and after matches to ensure no long-term weaknesses are coming up.

Ah thx, I was getting ready for work and sort of half-watching and listening... didn't remember hearing the OL kill. Also, Tasteless and Artosis don't like to talk about the game until the fighting starts unless it's like a 6 pool or something.

His aggression is just so relentless. I imagine it'll be a far cry from when they were abuseable but it would be interesting to see someone try dual ups ling/infestor styles

i guess esports isn't that big enough that you can can afford a physio per team, plus noone really knows the physiology of gaming anyway haha. i mean there was that massage guy in europe but they're far and few between
plus you can pull a muscle in soccer by just running or falling randomly anyway haha

yeah, that's what i mean. Given that in korea esports is a thing like soccer here in Europe (or at least I assume that), there should be more professionality regarding to health, especially wrists, eyes and back, shouldn't it? The EG guys all do their push-ups, don't they?

But EG guys also only train maybe a fourth of a korean pro.

Map: Overgrowth (3rd time in a row. Seems to be a good map!)
0:00 Top right corner, Paralyze spawns 0:00 Bottom left corner, Myungsik spawns
The god of esports rubs his hands and grins fiercely, thinking of poor Boxerfred LR'ing a pvp.
02:00 so far, same build, which means 1gate 2gas for both. 03:00 "Nothing happens in Pvp before the core is done" #justprotossthings 03:10 Scouting probes high-fiving in the middle of the map 03:30 Artosis talking about what you can do with a core, Tasteless tells him politely to shut up. "Countosis!" 4:00 Second gate for Paralyze finishing, Twilight council started. Surprise - same thing for Myungsik. 5:00 Stalker production being started, 3rd gates for both. 5:30 Paralyze misses the warpin pylon of Myungsik 6:00 MSC of Paralyze barely recalls out after scouting Myungsiks base. Note: no overcharge available now. 6:30 In theory, 3gate vs. 3gate should be even. Both adding a robo now. 7:00 Myungsik plays "just bad" #thingsTastelessSays" and loses a stalker for nothing while dancing around Paralyze's main choke. 7:37 Nexus for Myungsik, both going for observers first out of their robos. 8:00 Nexus for Paralyze, immortal production starting for Myungsik. 8:30 This is boring. #thingsDLOhatesToHear

9:00 Forge for Myungsik, immortals for both 9:30 Forge for Paralyze. Looks like Paralyze is roughly 10-30 seconds behind everything that Myungsik is doing. That won't make a difference at all, though. 10:00 Artosis: "You're currently not able to kill each other. You can't. So you get your upgrades". 10:30 +1 attack for Paralyze, +1 attack for Myungsik. See? 30 secs between the forges makes no difference, since Myungsik failed to instantly PUSH DAT BUTTON 11:00 Charge for both players. 3 more gates for Paralyze, templar archives for Myungsik. 11:30 Templar archive for Paralyze, warp prism for Myungsik. 12:00 Overall 5 more gates now for Paralyze, 4 for Myungsik, plus colossus tech (hidden!!!) for Myungsik. Whoa, we got some variation here!

Map: Overgrowth (3rd time in a row. Seems to be a good map!)
0:00 Top right corner, Paralyze spawns 0:00 Bottom left corner, Myungsik spawns
The god of esports rubs his hands and grins fiercely, thinking of poor Boxerfred LR'ing a pvp.
02:00 so far, same build, which means 1gate 2gas for both. 03:00 "Nothing happens in Pvp before the core is done" #justprotossthings 03:10 Scouting probes high-fiving in the middle of the map 03:30 Artosis talking about what you can do with a core, Tasteless tells him politely to shut up. "Countosis!" 4:00 Second gate for Paralyze finishing, Twilight council started. Surprise - same thing for Myungsik. 5:00 Stalker production being started, 3rd gates for both. 5:30 Paralyze misses the warpin pylon of Myungsik 6:00 MSC of Paralyze barely recalls out after scouting Myungsiks base. Note: no overcharge available now. 6:30 In theory, 3gate vs. 3gate should be even. Both adding a robo now. 7:00 Myungsik plays "just bad" #thingsTastelessSays" and loses a stalker for nothing while dancing around Paralyze's main choke. 7:37 Nexus for Myungsik, both going for observers first out of their robos. 8:00 Nexus for Paralyze, immortal production starting for Myungsik. 8:30 This is boring. #thingsDLOhatesToHear
9:00 Forge for Myungsik, immortals for both 9:30 Forge for Paralyze. Looks like Paralyze is roughly 10-30 seconds behind everything that Myungsik is doing. That won't make a difference at all, though. 10:00 Artosis: "You're currently not able to kill each other. You can't. So you get your upgrades". 10:30 +1 attack for Paralyze, +1 attack for Myungsik. See? 30 secs between the forges makes no difference, since Myungsik failed to instantly PUSH DAT BUTTON 11:00 Charge for both players. 3 more gates for Paralyze, templar archives for Myungsik. 11:30 Templar archive for Paralyze, warp prism for Myungsik. 12:00 Overall 5 more gates now for Paralyze, 4 for Myungsik, plus colossus tech (hidden!!!) for Myungsik. Whoa, we got some variation here!
13:00 Nothing happening. Do you remember those AoE2 "20 min no attack" thingy? 13:30 3rd for both players. Poor rocks get destroyed by #protossPower. Fuck this, racist bastards, always rocks.. poor rocks. 14:00 Paralyze having roughly 20 more army supply somehow. There's one colossus for Myungsik though. 14:30 Paralyze moving in on the 3rd of Myungsik - well, no, into the natural. Nexus cannon being forced. 15:00 Paralyze forced the cancel on the 3rd, which is great for him. That might just be the culminating moment of the game. 15:30 Nothing happening 16:00 Myungsik moving out on the map. 16:10 Myungsik moving out off the map. 16:30 Paralyze leaving the middle of the map, Myungsik moving out on the map, gathering up to push up into a concave. 17:00 Tasteless "would not advise attacking into that concave" that Paralyze has set up. 17:10 Engagement, Myungsik walks into that concave, which is a bad idea, as Tasteless correctly said. 17:30 GG, Paralyze wins!

0:00 Top right corner: Myungsik! 0:00 Top left corner: Paralyze! 01:30 10gate for Myungsik. He wants to roll! 02:00-3:30 nothing really happening, until -- 03:31 Stargate for Myungsik. That's a fast one. 04:00 And it's scouted by Paralyze, if I am correct. Seems like I am, he decides to put down a Twlight council. 04:30 Phoenix production started. Which I like, since Twilight appears to be not that strong on Habitation Station due to the map's shape. That means it's a defensive blink, and Myungsik might know that, too. Let's see his reaction. 05:30 More gates for both players. 06:00 MSC of Paralyze goes down vs. the three phoenixes, throws down the nexus cannon but gets no kill.

07:00 Myungsik still active with his phoenixes, doesn't stop production so far. Lots of stalkers on the map though, an expansion might not be easily holdable. 08:00 Stalkers still posturing defensively, a probe checks for Myungsik's nexus. Sees none, Paralyze might chill out a bit. 08:30 Stalker of Paralyze gets caught, Myungsik posturing more aggressively. 09:00 Gets another stalker which scouted Myungsik's main out. 09:30 Nexus plus two sentries (ballsy against those phoenixes!) for Paralyze, a few seconds later, Myungsik throws down his Nexus as well. 10:00 Myungsik 65 - 61 Paralyze. Boring stage of PvP seems to start. DarkLordOlli might take over.

don't be stupid shellbot and i are both mods
are you? i honestly don't know how to tell who's a mod, i only know KadaverBB is a mod cause he's the only person that keeps warning me. also i was joking, i actually used to be a big fan of MKP and would like to see him be good again.

11:00 Colossus tech for Myungsi(c)k, which makes sense, since he's already dominant in the air and corruptors will not counter him in PvP. 12:00 Templar archive for Paralyze. Fun fact: Myungsik going colossus tech with no gas on his natural. 13:00 Real phoenixes win vs. hallucinated phoenixes. It's expensive to deny scouting that way. More gateways for both. 13:30 Storm started for Paralyze, +1 finishing for him. 14:00 Only one immortal for Paralyze, Myungsik knows this and attacks! Fucking laser balls, timewarps, lifts, and boom, hallucinated colossus! Bad position for Myungsik on the ramp of the natural though, supplies are kind of even, but the immortal and the colossus are still alive. 15:00 Myungsick 74 - 85 Paralyze. Both back off the fight, Myungsik finally decides to get the gas on his natural.

Uh-oh, KT vs. SKT might come to an end soon? 16:30 Myungsik 98 - 124 Paralyze. 17:00 Twilight council just starting for Myungsik. Looks like his semi-allin/allin/no-gas-colossus-allin/semi-allin really backfires now. 17:30 Paralyze takes his third uncontested. Supplies are kind of even again, 122 - 138. How did that happen? 18:00 4 colossi are now out for Myungsik, lots of Zealots, too. Still only 2 immortals for Paralyze, which might be bad I guess?

Now he's down the ramp, he might go for it now? 20:00 Paralyze splitting his army, getting caught with one part of it, but it doesn't matter. He goes full #rekt on Myungsik. 20:30 GG!

Wow poor Myungsik, that loss looked like it really hurt him. KT should get Zest to mentor him through PvP or something, heck maybe he could ask sOs for help, kid has potential thats for sure.

Awesome, finally a terran player in the gsl and I missed it. Guess I won't be watching the matches ever because of the stupid pay wall. Also, holy shit does gom purposely make medium quality look this bad? No other stream on twitch looks this bad on medium. Way to build an audience lol.

You can always watch first game of every set on GOM's youtube channel, and first game of DRG vs. Maru was better than the second so you can watch it anyway.

oh, thanks. Not too big of an issue, we split up in a good way (well, as good as those things can be) - fair deals regarding our child, noone having a disadvantageous situation. we're fine with each other, somehow.

More rays than queens. Off creep. Pure ultra on the ground. It was pretty obvious what was going to happen. DRG with hilariously poor decision making in the last 2 games. A shame, I felt like he's actually better than Paralyze, but he's just playing like he got the game yesterday.
Not quite a throw. DRG makes nothing to counter that fleet of VR for like 15 minutes, he simply plays bad I mean, watch hydra v P for the definition of throw

He had infestors and queens.
He just threw everything away in a terrible engagement up the ramp.

Not like that would counter so many rays + a good laser tag army in the back. His infestors also hardly left the bases tldr:make corruptors

They also would have been raped by voids and archons. Queens and infestors are okish imo, but he also spend inf energy while defending wp harass.
Not quite a throw. DRG makes nothing to counter that fleet of VR for like 15 minutes, he simply plays bad I mean, watch hydra v P for the definition of throw
He had infestors and queens.
He just threw everything away in a terrible engagement up the ramp.

Looks like you haven't learn to respect the void rays That amount of voids will be crazy cost inefficient for corruptors to beat
Oh my god, I stopped watching after the first set fo the final game between DRG and Paralyze, when Artosis said "Maru and DRG are clearly better in this group, no question about it". That curse is not dead...

Isn't he more like an anti-Ensnare? I mean, Ensnare stayed in Code S longer than he should due to a bad system and now DRG exited Code S earlier than he should due to a bad system.

DRG has been in Code S for so long. I don't think he's ever dropped since 2011 (he fell to Challenger in WCS last year, but that was for OSL, so the streak continues). Unlike Ensnare, who stayed in due to a bad system, DRG has been scrappy enough to cling onto Code S, but hasn't made it past the Ro16 since mid 2012 or something crazy.

It's frustrating because he looked really on point , even against Maru he was playing well but his opponent was playing exceptionally.

I know, what you were saying, I was just using the oppurtunity to make double-elim look bad (or rather as bad as it is).

RG smile comin' up*. Regarding this group, he's saying it's not too much of a difference to the last time being in Code S. Tough opponents, but of course he's confident in what he's doing - he learned much from other players, is going to do his best, and - did he really say this? - "Thanks to Artosis for being great" - I think that was some on-the-fly thing from the translator.
