Really scrappy game by Grubby, I hope he's just feeling out his opponent a little in the first game.

So if you've been following my recaps, you'll notice that I foolishly recapped the first two games of Grubby vs Sting in first person, and during the LR I wrote the following:

Sting to win IEM after placing 4th in TSL

world still doesn't notice


When Grubby comes back 3 games in a row now, and then Sting wins in the finals the world might notice then...

On the other hand, that could result in the Alive effect where in everybody's mind the Protoss won anyway.


So I then switched to full on voodoo mode by recapping in past tense third person and got those three wins for Grubby. You're welcome. I'll now attempt to undo my voodoo by recapping in first person present tense for the win.

IEM Singapore Finals Game One: Day Break

Grubby spawns bottom left: Sting in the top right. Sting opens gasless fast expand, Grubby scouts it and puts down his own expansion. Each player continues passively, Sting putting a bunker in front of his expand, Grubby scouts it with a stalker. Grubby gets double forge and colossus as Sting begins medivac production. Each player still on two bases. At the 11:30 mark Sting is at a 40 supply advantagwe as he pushes out against Grubby. Sting sees colossi and builds a second stargate. Grubby finishing his 2/2 upgrades and blink at 13:00. Sting drops Grubby's base and takes down Grubby's robotics bay. At 14:00 Supplies are 130 for Grubby, 170 for Sting mostly as a result of macro. Sting now has a third base while Grubby has so far failed to establish his own. Sting goes for an attack just as storm and 3/3 finiush, Sting does force the cancel on grubby's nexus, but Grubby is now catching up in supply to the maxed terran. Sting forces the cancel on Grubby's 3rd yet again, but grubby tries once more to put it up while pushing out with his maxed army with MANY zealots. the armies meet at Sting's PF at his 4th on his side of the center of the map. The battle is fairly even, ending a little below 100 supply for each player,. but the planetary holds and Sting forces Grubby back and with his superior economy Sting quickly climbs again in supply and when Sting pushes again Grubby is unable to hold and Sting takes the first game of the finals.

I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I like how Sting wrapped his bio behind and around his planetary to let it tank Grubby's forces, so cool.

He had a decent amount he just sacced them to hold Grubbys big push. Might have won him the game. Such good control in that battle though...so jealous @_@

Yup. Considering there were ZERO in group play before the open bracket had finished it's a pretty amazing feat really.

Well it's not like anybody expected grubby to win the first map . He always lays the basis for an epic comeback first.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
