Shame Has advanced.

Well he very much outplayed the lower bracket so really everyone else getting through would have been the bigger shame.

Wasn't obvious to me. What would the intent be?

it looks like Has didn't want to finish it because the broodlings do a lot of damage, same reason why he didn't finish off the roach warren, Bly wanted the broodlings to see if he could hold


That makes a lot of sense and also sounds extremely unlikely. I can't tell if I'm being trolled or not, which in the end is the feeling I should always get from a Has game, so thanks! :D

Just caught the last two series but Has played much better than both Bly and Impact. 100% deserved.
Zest fanboy.

The people he beat disappointed against HAS.

Safe and steady defensive macro player Has edging out Zerg cheeselords Bly and Impact should really give everyone hope for the future of Protoss.

What group has the highest chance of players adjusting to Has exactly the wrong way? Zest does dumb things sometimes I guess?

In PvP seems unlikely though. That's the one where Zest messes up the least. I could go for a Has vs Maru rematch of the ages.

Looking forward to tomorrow. I'm really hoping Polt can make it through, but his upper bracket is one of the toughest. soO probably advances through his upper bracket.

As for bracket 4. Dear and Trap are heavily favored to advance in their upper bracket leaving a bloodbath of a lower bracket, I have no idea who gets out of there.

Not unlikely at all. Killing buildings to force broodlings has been done since the start. Bly was in a awful position and he had to hold at all costs and the broodlings was just extra DPS to help him. You will find clips on youtube of other zergs doing the same.

Besides you need like 20 transfuses to get the hatchery back to a decent health count which he didnt have so a single zealot could just take a swipe at it and kill it, so he wanted to get everything out of the hatch when Has his army was nearby.

Also Has his army was moving away from the hatch so a sudden attack move with all his roaches on the hatch must have been the missclick of the century.

A repeat of the epic Has v Maru game would be very much appreciated for sure. Agree with Zest PvP as well but you know, maybe he (Zest) decides to do one of his legendary cannon rushes!

But yeah Has is going to get slaughtered

Since he probably gets butchered in any group I'd like him in group D, personally. 2 Terrans would be hilarious.

Zest is usually smart when it comes to PvP

Didn't Has go up 2-0 in a bo5 against Maru back in 2018 as well.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Amazing to think Has and Maru have only played each other twice given how memorable both those series were.

The first time was the maxed out blink stalker army blinking into a dozen tanks on Vaani. The second time involved Has going proxy-stargate shield battery five games in a row.

Yeah, I know the Hatchery was as good as dead anyway, so I didn't think it was an issue or anything, but I've so seldom seen structure Broodlings be impactful that I'm really surprised that both players were playing around that.

And I wasn't wondering if it was a misclick, I was looking at the tabs and didn't see what killed the Hatch, so I wasn't sure if it was Has or Bly.

But thanks for the information, this isn't something I would have considered, so I appreciate it.

Glad Has had a poor 2019 so all the bandwagon fans from Valencia fell off and he can go back to being the villain/cult-hero

Part of me wants him make us eat our words by causing upsets again, even if it means humiliating my favorites
