indeed man, Cloud was better at producing probe, units, buildings but attacking wrong cost him both games possitioning won both game for G5

Game 1: Cloud didn't research storm in time / nice timing from G5... Game 2: Cloud didn't storm? wtf!

I think it is a little controversial cause he's pretty much saying that g5 won despite having played worse, which he didn't. He played better than cloud and even cloud agrees with that.

i really thought cloud had this. i remember being super impressed last few times i saw his pvp. That's starcraft though. Congrats to G5

Are you sure? The interview reveals G5 was cutting probes. Even though Cloud had a good econ advantage game 2, G5 had similar pop the whole game.
Positioning may have been a small factor in game 2, but i think micro and decision making were greater. As for game 1, G5 attacked the third he didnt know about at the perfect time, before storm completed.

game 1 super boring game 2 cloud just choked if he waited even for those 4 goons and reaver he woulda got natural

did you watch the replays or?

I am sad for Cloud, because his PvP was always briliant and these games didn't show it. Game 2 was easy win if Cloud just waited for reaver/s and time attack G5's natural with good micro management. Game 1 was pretty even, but 1 battle decided (forgeting storm).
|
Ricjames he lost just move on, G5 is a great player anything can happen vs G5 iknow from own experience.. Im sad that cloud lost but G5 is a good player..
|
when I watched the 2nd game I thought to myself the whole time "how the hell is g5 gonna win this", but he did it and im glad ^^ (been spoiled the results before watching )
|
i wasnt spoiled and in game 2 I was like 100 % sure that I will see a game 3 for like .. 2 times
but i <3 that even the first match out of OH so many is already that good and just .. things start to kick off thats just great !

Cloud is always amazing until big situations and then he gets raped by american protoss.
Valor/tsl2 it just works out this way =(
|
Cloud seemed to be the superior macro player, but he lost both games due to poor decisionmaking and bad luck. Got to feel that the force was with G5 this time.
First game he didnt use a single storm despite having a lot of templars with energy. Did he forget to research? (storms didnt come until after he already lost)
Second game he also made a lot of templars wasting all his gas forcing him to make mass zlots and cut goons, and then he morphs all his templars into archons. WTF? Did he manage to forget to research storm yet again? Even if he didnt research it, I dont think he had any reason to move out at that point.
Grats to G5.
|
Does anyone have this on On-Demand stream that I can watch the games on?
|

|
