It should, but cheering for SKT feels so... unnatural. Like having to kill one of your close friends in order to protect a closer friend or your gf. It's just hard to do.

Just cheer on the individual players
Cheering for Dark or Classic is even harder than cheering for SKT in general xD

Well, if Sbenu doesn't make playoffs now, they probably won't make season playoffs.
As a CJ and Sbenu fan, I'm hoping for Sbenu to make it this round.
I'm pretty confident KT gets the win vs MVP but I feel like SBENU can take any of these maps even if SKT wins eventually. I don't know if my heart can take another day of the CJ playoff roller coaster. Still believe in that 3-0 though, help us SK Telecom T1 you are our only hope.

That PvZ winrate of Classic since May is pretty sick, yo.
Bomer and Myungsik with weird builds have the best shots at taking maps imo, DRG could channel his old power but Classic is just way too strong and Jjakji could if it gets to it beat Dream unless Dreams mech TvT has shored up his holes.

So, granted I missed map one, but when Dream played TvT against TY in the IEM Qualifier, he didn't mech in 2 of those games. I hope he hasn't given up on it yet.

Yeah he didnt at all but I hope he does because the time he meched it looked really good.
Sbenu needs only one Map. Preparing a few Snipe builds should not be that hard. I expect them to lose 3:1 or 3:2 and advance. Anyway, they have to Advance for Jin Air's sake... I don't want to get CJ. Maru will just get Byuled again...

Bomber spent 0 scans on clearing creep on 3 orbitals. No need to even make a raven.

If you're giving up on map control early/mid game to gain economic edge, it doesn't make much sense to try to remove all the creep during mid/late game. Bomber instead uses even more mules to gain more economic advantage.
I like his style, but when you know it's coming it's somewhat easy to counter - especially a player of Dark's caliber. Just get 4 base 80+drones and mass units.
Bomber must know something I don't, cause I just cannot see why anyone would ever not go for at least some aggression before the entire map is covered in creep by like the 13 minute mark.
In fact I don't even understand the point of that 3cc build at all, the innovation 3cc build used to push out so early just to crush zergs ability to do anything macro like.

Raven gets sniped by muta flock because it's super slow and then all that gas goes down the drain

The creep reached Bomber's 3rd base in like 13 minutes, that's just terrible for him.

Yes I'd like to see him do standard TvZ builds more often, but I guess this 1 rax->3CC build is just how he wins in practice.

Rapid Fire.
Maybe he has it to move command? I've never seen someone use it for movement, should have big disadvantages.
Why not, it's cool for worker pairing, isn't it? IIRC workers then never ever leave the mineral on which they are paired. I suppose this is ideal for someone like soO. Also better Phoenix control against Muta, but soO doesn't have them (maybe better Muta control? Zergs?)

He's playing like I do! But I am bad at SC2, soO I prefer Colossi so Zerg gets them with vipers, focuses them and I storm the shit out of the zerg army in the mean time. Colossi is basically a tanking unit for me.

He saw HerO beat Life with colossi and was like "Well if he can do it so can I!"
soO making hydras, he needs colossi
you research storm after +2 blink
Well, it's not like colossi are bad all of a sudden, storm is just better at holding earlier timings. Colossus macro is still quite strong if you're untouched. No idea if that's what's happening though since I'm not watching!

One glance at the minimap should have told him he didn't have anything tho. Silly way to lose.

You don't stay on roach hydra forever but it's much easier to defend vs this.
By the way, Jin Air and SKT are the most consistent PL teams by far. If you find the 'mean' result by giving 1st in playoffs a '4', 2nd a '3', 3rd a '2' and 4th a '1', they'd be about ~6 points ahead of the others. Jin Air is currently 1 ahead, but unless they make finals, SKT will reclaim the throne. Also - Rogue and Maru are some crazy stat like 26-3 combined in vT/P within proleague.

Sure, but transitioning into a composition that can actually win the game after that resource drain is hard, not to mention the fact that you still might take damage despite it being easier in some ways

That's unfair to him, everyone else sucked too.
He didn't "suck" tho. DRG and Bomber got utterly outclassed. Myungsik lost a game where he was in a perfect position to win. He got the closest to winning. And he's a pretty emotional guy so I reckon that's kinda what he's thinking right now.

Only thing that was lame is how DRG played. He saw it coming and did jack shit.
He made lings.
Perfect counter to VR's

I still catch people off guard in masters on korea with lings in zvp, it only takes like 1 pixel to lose a game when your playing a race like protoss

If you get rushed and play from behind yes, you can lose to lings, but when you're on similar economy and you pay attention to your FF and sim city at your third..no way man, no way you lose to lings!!

of course i do. i was that masters player with hilariously low APM, but knew what to build, when to build it, didn't miss probes etc. just can't multi-task or do anything quickly. so it's quite easy for me to lose to such things xD

ah man you don't have to multitask like crazy....it's not like you drop in 3 places at once... i don't know man.....i'm diamond and perhaps i don't see all the angles...but i'm a bit salty cause DRG is so good and at that level you cannot throw a game like that...cause i think it was a throw when you don't get bullshit by the protoss and you scout what's going on and see mass VR's.......who knows what DRG thought? Classic is weird sometimes in his plays.....
So despite all the signings, money, changes and everything. The same 4 teams from Round 2 make the playoffs. And despite the closeness the quality was way down this season and Prime is basically a corpse. I don't know what that says about the state of Proleague but it doesn't seem good

To be fair, it involved a certain degree of idiocy for some teams.
Ha! What a funny day for statistics!! It was incredibly hard for CJ to get through and nearly impossible. But with their 3-0 and the submissal performance of SBENU (one win would have been enough!) the miracle came true!!
So: good for Byul and herO, I like it. But I would have liked to see DRG, Dear or GuMiHo in the in the Playoffs either.
Another fun fact (most likely somebody already mentioned it?): all the teams which lost today are out of the Playoffs.

* this week.
So the top 4 at the end of the season is guaranteed to be SKT/JAGW/CJ/KT? That's a bit sad if you ask me.

Yes, my comment was about this Round 3. And it will be really hard for the last four to play the big finals after Round 4. If SBENU is lucky (and good!) enough and KT bad enough in the last round, then maybe SBEBU can overtake KT, but... well... I think it's more likely that Curious wins Kespa Cup :-)
