The most noticable thing, is that it's actually a win win for Avilo. If if lose, he'll still get advertisement (no advertisement is bad advertisement, especially for him), and if he wins, then jackpot. Whereas TLO has nothing to win here, except maybe some peace for himself and all of us should avilo taste some forced humility.

There is absolutely NO WAY that TLO wins.

Only Chance for TLO is when Avilo sticks to MECH.

MMM without banes = gg



given the difference of level between them, TLO would destroy MMM with a max supply roach timing with ease.

Avilo says mech isn`t viable, while mech is played in GSL. Guy whines a lot on reddit instead of improving.

Avilo won't accept it and honestly I wouldn't either.
If you play in a showmatch where your opponent has such a handicap it's clear that the only purpose of the showmatch is to make fun of you.
If he loses he'll be completely embarrassed and if he wins he gains nothing because everyone will (rightfully) say he won only because of the handicap.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

To be fair the skill difference between them is such that any challenge format would be silly.

clever by TLO to only offer $100 to avilo, when he knows the value of the attention he'll get by being in a showmatch with avilo will be far more than $100

i don't think avilo will let TLO leech off him for so little money tho


The "value" is probably negative as being anyhow associated with avilo can only hurt someone with TLOs popularity

To be fair, mech was played waaaay more often in HotS than it is now. You hardly see mech in GSL with LotV.

I wonder where does matecherino make all the money? Because they surely are happy to pitch in very often.

Because TLO just beat him this week exactly this way easily. Even trying to mind control a worker.

Do you remember when it was? I would like to see that match. Avilo vs Vibe was great to watch.

TLO's level of play is much higher than Avilos. But even so, he could get lucky and win one game. However, if he loses them all, then with the handicap on TLO, he will be completely humiliated.

Of course, being Avilo is a handicap in itself, he tilts too often, and does not know the game as well as he thinks he does.

Yesterdays Avilo stream:
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/150462369

Game starts at 51:30

He basically mass queens, get some roach ravager, expanded all the map, and finished game with Queen / Infestor / Broodlord / Corruptor

I would say this particular game Avilo lost because he did absolutely no pressure to TLO, and went mass expand instead. Strategy actually often works against NA GM zergs, who prefer more aggresive styles, but failed against EU zerg style -
mass drones, defend pushes with as low units as necessary and rape with tier 3 units and superior economy

Not sure if TLO is able to defeat Avilo using only roaches queens and corruptors though, he might actually loss to pure ground mech which avilo loves, without support of spellcaster units like vipers and infestors + artillery spells of ravagers, it will be very hard to do.

I guess TLO gonna try some allins with nydus worms / drops or "rat style" play like sending some burrow roaches here and there just to tilt Avilo.

Would watch this showmatch ofcourse.

I can´t imagine any half decent terran not being able to stomp a much better zerg silly with these limitations ;p
