With so many games recently, and such a good start to Round 2, I feel like we've missed an opportunity to get some runs on the board and put other teams under pressure (forcing them to play catch-up).
Going into the STX match I mentioned I thought they matched up well against us, and that's largely due to their Terran line-up. Atm I feel like our vT, and in particular, PvT, is really a MU the team's struggling with.
Not that long ago we could've counted on the ACE match to get a solid win, but nowadays you can't take anything for granted. Certainly is making for an exciting season so far.
Now we just need T8 to get picked up and things will be perfect.

We've definitely missed many opportunities to do break away on the board. I think many of our losses to Terrans were just unfortunate, I think on any other given day our players can perform in vT matches (for instance if Best hadn't gone to two base carrier I think his chances of beating Last would have been much higher.)
I feel one of our bigger weaknesses is only having one performing Terran, we rely too much on Fantasy. When we've used FBB and Sun, we're left with our Zerg players, who are wildly inconsistent. If we had ssak and jyj step up and perform then I think we'd be getting better results. Unfortunately, their history isn't so good, and their chances of being sent out are few and far between, even more so since the change in format (ssak has only seen 1 game this season, and jyj remains as a practice partner and bench warmer). I feel this weakness is even more apparent when we've used up FBB and Sun, and we're left with just our Zergs, and out opponents know this. I just think we'd be more fearsome if we had another Terran to rely on :/
Also, thanks Nanashin for streaming.
