Not going to lie, Bunny is looking good. Dark is not going to go down that easily though, he's rallied like hell in this game.

I think he was a bit too much behind, and lurker on this map with so few bases and short rush distance seems like a bad plan? Didn't work either for Reynor vs Maru iirc, and Reynor is the master of lurker playstyle

Reynor can't beat Maru with Lurkers. Maru is too good vs it. It's as simple as that. The only guy that can beat Maru with that style would be Rogue and that isn't to say Rogue is better than Reynor is (although I think he is) it's because Rogue knows Maru better than any other Zerg does. He was his teammate and practice partner for years.

Well that's certainly an interesting way to start the night. I still think it's going to be Dark and PartinG to advance but Dark going to the loser's match is something else.

Dark didnt get to do his killer move with lingbane runby into the 4th and 5th of Bunny while Bunny was busying seiging Tanks up. The only reason Dark was able to beat Clem was because he was so damn great with his runby, he did zero of that against Bunny.

Yep, PartinG vs Terran. Should be interesting how he goes against Bunny.

Edit: Unless Byun can pull something crazy off to get a 2-1 win.

Byun actually showed up more than I expected him to. I think Parting taking this break is an acknowledgement of that. That was not nearly as easy for him as he wanted it to be.

Its hard to do harrassment against guys with great Stalker control like Parting and Trap, got caught once or twice and you lose all the map control. Its better off to win the game straight up by either 3 Racks or early Tank push imo.

Very nice games by Bunny.
That said, people overrates the value of lurkers in zvt, in the case the T has enough ghosts, there is no way to be cost efficient hence why split map scenario which ends favoring the z will always be conclude by BL.

From an even, or game where Z are ahead I just don’t see many people outside of Maru reliably pulling off that transition.

They’re still pretty damn good, but Bunny had got some edges earlier on to work with and played a solid game.

I prefer Reynor’s general approach with them though, you get all the mobility and map coverage going ling/bling heavy and can stretch your opponent with backstabs and runbys, starting with a more roach heavy approach I think limits you a bit.

Ghosts alone don’t do that, because once they get hit they stop firing so you need a concave to be able to shoot at all. It’s the combination of tanks + ghosts that allow to defend, and one of the counters to tanks is BL, that’s why zergs usually end up doing it. But on such a small map / so few bases / not being ahead it’s usually hard to do.

There is so much respect in the way Bunny is playing vs Parting and I do not blame him. He wins anyway though, he could have gone for the kill earlier but he knows Parting is too fucking dangerous to take those kinds of risks and he was winning with safe play the whole time.

Yea just spend 20-30 supply in units to protect against what your opponent MIGHT do.

Feels like a tempest or two early on would've been super helpful for PartinG and his comp wasn't quite right. Regardless, Bunny playing amazingly well; I hope he moves on just to see him play more.

Despite my Liquibets I shall be sad if Bunny doesn’t make it out given what he’s shown so far.

Kind of inspirational that you can be a decent mid-tier Korean pro for years and there’s still a shot that you can ascend to a higher power level.

Ok you can handle multi prong attack, blink DT squads and dodge disruption on 3 screens at the same time but can you handle ONE zealot?

Aye, the hard part isn’t merely defending everything but it’s keeping a balance with aggressive potential and map presence, which Bunny juggled very well.

I was mostly joking anyways :D But still looked like it was a worth investment.

Well there are 40supply of units defending the expands so that is to be expected, isn’t it?

tbf getting supply blocked like that is a pretty unforgivable mistake for a player of Bunnys caliber.
That voidray build doesn't allow for any error from the terran

Also note that bunnys raven was severly out of position this fight, i think with a disable he wins or at least has enough time to get more units.

Yeah, makes me hate Parting so goddamn much. He's always been a monster in PvT, but even with Bunny playing at basically his best form ever, still not enough.

bunny vs dark game 2 was such a good match, MASSIVE back and forth ground engagements without BLs
There is no such thing is "e-sports". There is Brood War, and then there is crap for nerds.

i love tastetosis lol.
I have a friend who doesn't play Starcraft (he did use to play Brood War with us at LAN parties) that casually watches Starcraft. He will not watch if Tastetosis is not casting. They are so integral to how he enjoys the game. I totally understand why.

That counter attack was both beautifully timed and brilliantly executed. Artosis called it right, cutting off Byun's reinforcements like that killed him. He was barely hanging on by keeping Dark defensive. Dark found the opening and split him open for the killing blow.

Great series though, Byun gave it what he has, but he just isn't at the level he used to be. We'll see if that holds true to Dark too this season, Bunny looked GOOD vs him earlier.

I guessed Dark only prepared for matches with Parting. But, Bunny also played very well. A bit sad that he was not there for ASUS Rog.

ByuN's attack didn't make any sense to me. It was a great position, but he wasn't going to be able to kill Dark, or even a base. And it didn't seem to further propel him to any win condition, since he wasn't going to be able to expand behind it without getting counter-attacked like he did, and the casters of Dark would've kept ByuN from being so efficient that he just starves Dark out.
Obviously a bit much to be considering in the heat of the moment, but I think the gameplan going into the match just wasn't quite right from ByuN.

I'm with Tastetosis on this. Bunny has been looking better since Maru joined Team NV, he looked good last season, but I've always ever considered him a mid tier Terran.

This is so fucking impressive how good he looks today. It's not just who he is playing against, it's how good he looks in those games. Parting only beat him by cheesing him, and that's the most respect you're ever going to get from the Big Boi, even he doesn't think he can beat Bunny straight up anymore.

This is by far the best I've ever seen Bunny play. If he can do this consistently, he'll earn his place as one of the new Big 4 of Terrans. There's openings now, and he looks like he really deserves a spot there now.

I’m sure it’s not, but if Bunny doesn’t make it out would this be one of the best performances in a group exit?

There has been so many of those over the years it's impossible to say for sure, but it definitely feels like one that is worth considering.

I'll just say, if someone wants to do the work and compile a list of all of those, that'd be a badass list that every hard core fan can argue about forever.

I still say that Terrans need to start vetoing this map. Every match it makes it look harder and harder for Terran to win on this map. Maru had to be EXTREMELY aggressive in order to win on this map.

Bunny is the story of this group. Waxangel if you do not praise this guy endlessly for how valiantly he fought and lost in this group I will not forgive you for at least 2 weeks. Dark and Parting advanced like most of us thought they would, but Bunny gave them everything they wanted and more.

Would be a fun list, it would probably necessitate a lot of rewatching from any writing team, and then rewatching from the readers.

Heroic Ro32/16 exits are a bit hard to keep on file in one’s memory banks.

Sad for Lagomorpha to go out playing mostly so well, although his mistake of leaving those tanks out on the field a little too long, Dark turned on Dark mode that last set especially.

Am frankly getting a bit sick of proxy battery cheeses taking sets at even this level with such regularity. Protoss have so many options that the sheer breadth of possibilities is hard to account for as a Terran, and those battery backed ones are hard to hold even if you do sniff them out.

That aside pretty good games today.

To be fair, it started as a proxy gate against Terran making an early expansion, which put him way behind even the first VR came out.

Nah. I have doubts DRG will even survive his group and then Parting beating Maru? I'll never take that bet. If Bunny played him this close Maru will beat him.

I don't think cancelling the CC is such a big deal considering the Protoss' investment for that attack.
Also it doesn't really affect the voidray defense.
in that situation the only thing cancelling the CC did is cost Bunny 100 Minerals since he wouldn't be able to mine from the natural anyways
