That's to be expected, isn't it? The in-form player sweeping the Proleague scene, getting into both GSL and NSSL (although getting out in Ro32/Ro16) versus a guy who didn't really play official match since like November. Who wants to retire. Everyone is betting on Dark, that's to be expected.

Sure, it is expected that Dark wins, but not with a 75% chance of winning GAME ONE

I wonder if Fantasy would have qualified if Snute hadn't botched his lead in the qualifiers. Fantasy would have had to go against Cure

He probably would have. Cure was exhausted and playing on so much ping he couldn't even micro. Problem is Fantasy would be up against herO in the first round instead

betting line is moving super fast right now, think it was just low amounts being bet so far and now everyone betting quickly changes it currently. 1,6 : 2,3 now for map 1.

Don't even think Rain played that badly, I just think it's very easy for Terran to pick apart and steamroll the playstyle that Rain plays (sitting back, macroing) if the T plays well in the mid-game.


Not paying any attention to WM drops, leaving his Colossi sitting around completely undefended or moving them around completely undefended from his third to his main on Overgrowth, the bizarre decision making in g3... yeah, it was bad.

It's incorrect to say that he wasn't paying attention to WM drops; he WAS paying attention, it just so happened that at the moment that the medivacs boosted in and dropped the mines, he was microing his oracles. And there's a point at which, if he does notice the mines, he can't pull his probes or you risk them bunching up and a mine getting a huge shot off, so he is basically forced to just leave them mining as is to minimize damage.

Not sure what your'e talking about 'leaving his colossi sitting around completely undefended,' I saw him split his forces as best possible (stalkers in the main, zealots/colossi at the third) given the information he had.

It's just that if you don't do something cheesy to put the Terran on the back foot, or to kill a bunch of SCVs early, Terran is extremely strong in the mid-game against Protoss. If you do what Rain did - sit back and play that respectful macro style - you're essentially forced into making zero mistakes, or you're just dead against a decent Terran.


Losing that many probes is a lot more cost-inefficient than losing the oracles+he had time to move command his probes out of the way

Yes, it's more cost-inefficient, but when he was microing his oracles he obviously didn't know that there was a widow mine drop about to hit. Otherwise he would have obviously gone for the more cost-effective option, to move the probes away.

And you say he had time to move command the probes out of the way, I don't necessarily think that's true, I'm guessing that he noticed it at the last second, and chose not to move command all of his probes away and risk getting all of them killed by one massive WM shot; instead hoping that Fantasy wouldn't target probes and the mine hits would only kill ~3 or 5, as the analysis desk was also saying often happens if the Terran doesn't target probes on different areas of the mining field with his widow mines.

Rain did make some strange mistakes. FanTaSy played the "always in your face" style quite well. And 11/11ed on Vaani ^^

G1: Rain defended marine/hellion very well, then lost 12 probes to mine drop while microing his oracles, then died to SCV pull
G2: Rain opened blink/robo, Fantasy opened 2 hellion scout -> standard 3rax, Rain fell super far behind. Played very very well to stay alive but sheer numbers by Fantasy were too much
G3: unscouted 2rax vs cancelled zealot -> nexus

Thanks, my brethrens <3

It says they'll be right back with Dark vs TaeJa. I can only assume they mean soon™.

I was thinking that it would be really surprising of Fantasy 3-0'd Rain, but he actually did that? Wtf happened, how'd he do that?
