Everything else was one-sided. The best game of the Bo5 between ZerO and Shuttle was game 2 on Bifrost III, because it was lost by a massive engagement fuckup and not just a lot of little fuckups. There was actually a period in which it could have gone either way.

Stratos i just want to say i appreciate every thread you've made so far and that you're still active in the BW section of this site. It's much appreciated and i think you need to hear that. All creds to you my man.
The probe departs, finding the time to disrupt ZerO's first hatchery. Forge goes down for the FE wall, and here's the nexus as well. Injured Probe is chased by a drone and two zerglings across the entire map, before ZerO puts down a proxy hatch at 10:00!
Shuttle's gas completes at his main as the core is built. Shuttle gets another probe in to see the lair morphing. Still no ling speed. A Zealot exits the wall, then decides against it as Shuttle sees a large zerglings squadron moving towards the wall!
The wall of lings sits in place and waits. Stargate is up and flashing as ZerO's spire is halfway complete. The 10:00 has 4 drones at it, more morphing in. Citadel of Adun complete, with legs morphing!
New expansion going down at the 10:30. Two scourge hunt the corsair that scouts it.Legs haven't come just yet, Protoss have first weapon upgrade about to complete concurrently. Zealot legs complete! Muta/speedling torments the attacking force of speedlots, and forces it back to the wall!
Hydralisk den complete as part of ZerO's nat wall. ZerO's five mutalsisks try to run harassment, but are met by five corsairs! Cannons are warping in all over Shuttle's base to dissuade such harassment shenanigans. ZerO is upgrading Grooved Spines, and a large group of sairs, speedlots, and an archon raid ZerO's natural before the sunken chases it off!
The sunken of course had a large group of hydras protecting it. Hydra bust! The one cannon is dead, and a massive horde of more hydras is on the way! The first storm goes down on the hydras and exacts a massive toll, but there's just so little in the way of those 3 building canonons!. Dark templars punish the hydras, but it's going to be so close! The fresh zealots move in and thin the hydras, but the gateway and forge are hurt! New cannons warping in, one hand ata time, but are quickly shut down! Last defense is another horde of zealots and 4 HT! They unleash 2 storms as a warning! Another! But more hydras are here! That's gotta be it, and it is! gg from Yoonjoong, ZerO takes it!
Shuttle walls off his main from zergling attacks with a goddamn Forge. The scouting probe stalks the Drone trying to make ZerO's third, but is chased off on the way by a single Zergling. ZerO has seen the wall, behind which 1 gate core is warping in. Lair tech is coming now, ZerO wasting no time before he can attack the Protoss economy. Worked against Mind, lol.
