Effort vs. DRG game 3 is a must watch. That ling/bling micro was completely incredible.

I know DRG is supposed to be in a slump, but that was the best bit of ZvZ micro I've seen from DRG in a long time. DRG just chose the wrong fight.

Yugioh...WTF man. That game three Fantasy GG timing.

On Tal darim openings like that engineer long ling bane wars, if 1 side started to tech roaches they would get overthrown by banes. Also lack of natural expo makes it really hard to defend your drones so it was a ling bane until someone gets advantage and techs.



No, the Tyrant is scheming... Do not let his feints fool you...

Happy for the Kespa pros. BW FIGHTING!

Agreed with Jaedong, there really is a heavy burden on the GSL players, you can tell they are suffering because of the pressure that they have to win.

That being said, Effort's game 3 vs DRG was some of the best zerg micro i've ever seen, that was just incredible play.

There was a game of drg vs losira were drg went ling and like 2 roaches to stomp ling bane. Anyone that remembers that era of drg knows that these games were disappointing in comparison. Even so the speed at which jaedong and effort picked up the game is astonishing.

Your story is completely irrelevant. 2 roaches dont stop mass speedling on tal darim. Thats why everyone opens 14g14p or certain specific early pools speed like effort did.

Liquid`HerO also uses the ID 'Hero'.

I'm still scared of him. I still think I am the inferior 'Hero'. I want to get better and become the better 'Hero'.

Finally someone asked this, hehe.

Shame HerO lost another PvP, but Creator was really humble in his interview, so that's nice.

I'm guessing you didn't watch that game then? In any event if you think that's the best micro you've seen from drg in a long time your definition of "long time" simply doesn't match mine.

Yep I meant to quote him ;P

Still, seeing drg lose a ling bane game for the first time in like 6 months is refreshing and it makes me hopeful to see what the kespa players can achieve after a year or so of practice.

I could see jaedong beating SC as SC has kinda fallen off after his health issues, but effort beating DRG was completely unexpected, I'll have to watch the VODs when I get home from class as I just can't see how it's possible.

Damn didn't think effort would beat DRG. Really happy for jaedong, but wow 3 kespa players won today is very surprising that all of them won. Crazy how fast they improved lol.
When I think of something else, something will go here

This. Very happy to see the BW pros acclimating to SC2 and starting to have strong showings. The influx of great players and competition can only be good for SC2.

I don't really see how it's dumb, especially now that we're seeing some results. And it's all in good company. Everyone here is watching SC2 after all.

Yeah I kind of wish people would stop perpetuating the dumb elephant shit. I just immensely dislike everything that article represents. I realize a BW vs. SC2 rivalry is inevitable, but the elephant in the room business is way too aggressive in that it just shits all over SC2 players, and it's not a healthy way to represent the rivalry IMO.
