Samsung wins with any score while KT loses would be enough for Samsung. If Samsung loses there is no way. Also if SKT loses 1-3 or 0-3 and KT wins SKT is in 5th.

Yep the last one is my ideal scenario then, I wanna see coach Stork in the playoffs, and not just coaching but also winning haha
Another terran for Dark to destroy. Although Guilty is in a much higher class than Ryung. He might be able to put up a fight rather than lie down and die
Would be nice to see Samsung get the upset and slay the behemoth but not gonna happen very often
On another note does anyone else find it absurd that MVP picked Marineking this week with their round on the line without even making a statement after saying they would?
Looks like both telecoms are pretty substantial favourites to advance, and Jinair/CJ is a flip
Finals are going to be insane this round especially if it's a Telecom battle in the first round
Seems like a lot of the TvT metagame is really moving toward more economic openings these days. A lot fewer gas first banshees and more defensive builds

Where did he "throw"?
Well the closest to throwing was after he surrounded and killed BrAvO's army and was 40 supply ahead he didn't commit to attacking.
Not every mistake is a "throw". Dream never had an obviously won game.
No, not every mistake is a throw, but he completely wiped a mech army and reset the tank count and then decided to give BrAvO time to rebuild. He could have won in that moment.
On April 13 2015 19:02 Roadog wrote: That throw by Dream rip ;_;

He actually had a huge timing to attack right when his 2/2 finished after absolutely crushing Bravo's first move out. He would of won the game 100% of the time had he attacked immediately after destroying that army. I am pretty shocked he didn't realize it and capitalize. That's a fight Maru takes (and wins) every time.

HyuN has done this a lot in the past. It's the safest opening possible basically. I take it as a sign of confidence in a standard game.

Used to be popular last year to cancel cc vs reaper expand. Hyun thought it up after hellbat change made 1 reaper into factory very common.

He beat TY in a macro game in his first Proleague game. Since then he's been all the hype, but Samsung has to gather the Korean Dragon Balls to summon him or something, his only other game was exactly 3 months ago.

I don't know why you wouldn't just go 10scout on a 2player map if you want to be safe and are willing to take economy cuts.

It can do a lot of damage vs 1 reaper expand into factory and it's 100% auto win vs 2 rax, with scout you can still die to 2 rax or take enough damage for T to be ahead.

10 scout doesn't allow you to kill the CC
neither did 13pool?
maybe in this game, but if Guilty would reaper expand, Dark would have been able to cancel (unless the Terran would leave the reaper at home for some reason)

Pro terrans are very good at controlling their hellions. I don't think you should call it an all in if it transitions into something else.

Like a ling/baneling bust off 2 bases. Also Roach/Ling/baneling all in can be tough to scout and are often hard to hold
O damn so torn TT on one hand I like Classic and Love SKT on the other I love Journey and think he's baller and want him to suceed and slowly become SGK core terran. But seeing as this is PL and I want that playoff 100% gogog Classic but please play very well Journey.

the 6:00 one? if Terran doesn't lose his first two hellions, it's very hard to outmicro him and break down the main ramp
roach/bane can be good and win games, obviously, but apparently they think that either different all-ins work better for them or they're just confident with macro

meh, he lost 11workers to the initial roach attack - that retained most of its roaches, did no damage at all with his banshee. I don't get Guilty's build to be honest. It looked like he was trying to cheat his way into lategame, having his first tank finishing at 9:30 with only one banshee, 8 hellions and 2 marines on the map. Like he built a second factory on the techlab of the starport but didn't produce anything with it for a minute or two. And after the rush trying to get by without turrets, going for a 12min hi-sec autotracking, going for early vikings but no real antiair, double armories pretty fast. I bet if he hadn't been attacked he would have just massed starports at 14mins of 120supply and hoped to get by.

Well they're not completely wrong, Rogue is like super unlikely to turn a series around if he gets behind, he gets tilted. I mean, he got 3-0'd by Hurricane recently.

Zest literally has dominating winrates vs INnoVation, Dark and Classic and an overall winrate vs soO and he does enjoy beating SKT players a lot apparently.
I feel the exact opposite about CJ, more than most teams, it feels like their weakest player is not so far from the pack. Interesting perspective from Soo.
