Does Dark usually not go for such a Viper heavy set-up? I don‘t reall recall that many of his lategame ZvZ‘s and to me this looked like a really prepared thing for what Rogue expected Dark to do even if it failed miserably. Dark isn't known for his late game spell caster control in ZvZ but it's not like he skimps in vipers when it gets there. Honestly, this broodlord switch is just a weird korean thing that they sometimes do in ZvZ, it almost never works but they still keep pulling it out.
You have to be so incredibly far ahead for the broodlord transition to work. Strangely enough the last time I saw broodlords win a ZvZ it was between two EU players.

I didn't see the start of this game, did Dark scout this in time to do the foreigner full wall defence?

Dark made it way harder for himself than he needed but won it in the end.

Crazy hold by Dark. Loving the Ro16 this GSL.

He scouted it in time, but he just microed it out.

Yes he did. He sent his 2nd overlord over the path Rogue sent his units on and saw it way in advance.

Classic Rogue, defending champion then goes out in last place in the Ro16 the next season.

I hope Dark can salvage my LB and advance in the final game.

best Code S in a long time

He screwed up. Broodlings are crazy strong. He should have killed the pool first when he has the chance.
I feel so sad... rogue being eliminated probably means Stats is going to win the GSL, which means no protoss buffs and we could use more 
But oh well. At least we'll finally have a protoss champion since forever.

Thanks. I'm glad he won anyway but it's weird that you wouldn't pick a "foolproof" way to get the win against this build (obviously not completely foolproof because we've seen everyone screw up the wall in tournament games)

Trap in first place, Rogue in last place. Well my liquibets are fucked this group. Damn you Group of Death!

Maybe he didn't practice the hatch cancel evo positioning recently, and wasn't confident he'd get it right.

I am so glad that I stayed awake to watch this match. I knew it was going to deliver, but I had no idea that it would deliver to this extent.
The only exception was INno vs Trap. That was just absolutely pathetic...

Well, I guess two of the players in this group have to fall. It‘s hard to even claim someone dropped out unexpectedly early in the tournament at this point. The group is just ridiculous, tbh.
I think Dark advancing would be good here, simply because I don‘t think the other two Zerg are up to the task to compete with the absolute best out there.

Rogue was kind of player who loved to gamble even though he had advantages over his opponent. Nothing new when he lost the Ro.32/Ro.16 after winning the championship. I think he might lose Ro.32 if the new GSL system did not allow the top seeded players to not playing in Ro.32 before deciding the group nominations.

my Trap and rogue liquibet going to trash
