Also did Light try to crush bbyong's tanks with his barracks?
As badass as that would have been, I'm pretty sure it's illegal.
Well to crush another player's siege tanks I think they essentially need to siege up under the barracks while it already is trying to landing so it would have really been more accurate to say Light was simply trying to block the siege tanks. If my understandings of crushing tanks is correct the person landing the building would just have to hope the other person is dumb because its a slightly difficult thing to do even on purpose. Was watching the game on GTR's mini screen so wasn't sure what exactly happened.
2nd creep colony at the nat Still only 1 gas for Rush Sunkens morphing in lurkers too +1 complete No sunkens in yet, one is 3 more morphing Stim... Rush backs out
Hive morphing Lurkers are out First fact being made 7 lurkers are out now Rush taking out lings outside of his choke MnM unlucky and don't snipe a lurker Evo chamber morphing in
Back! Lings almost get the surround on the first tank Seige complete, taking out the sunkens Dropship is out Loaded Defiler mound complete, Drop Defiler gets the swarm off in the main, scourged the dropship
9 oclock is secure 7 oclock has a cc under construction 5 facts total;3 with add on 1 starport CC at 7 nat aswell Vultures snag a drone heading towards 2 Ultra cavern morphing 6th fact being added
Drop at 7 nat! Forces lift Swarm on the ramp! Lurkers all over Soulkey taking 6 8 facts Drop is cleared Tons of OL's heading out Defiler snipe! Drop at 7 again! NO at 9! No vessels; late swarm, but no vessels T.T Vessel count to 5 I think? Soulkey pressing Rush's force at inner 1 1-1 for Mech 9 is shut down 7 nat is up and running Okay, goliaths being added
Rush has a ton of tank/goliath, but Soulkey is basically slow-pushing across the map with waves of units while Rush is forced to try to shut down expansions and is falling behind.
Hatchery at 12 holds! For now 11 facts total, I think Nice, Rush loses one of 3 vessels, to tons of scourge Vultures harassing 3 oclock Drop researched
Rush's push at 12 is being halted Shelling 6 oclock 7 base zerg - 5 base terran Drop on the seige line at 6 Drop at the undefended 9 oclock Forces scvs to pull MINE, gets several scvs
Rush losing tons of tanks at 12 Lings being very effective I can't see upgrades very well T.T Shelling continues at 12 Rush's main and looks like the nat is mined out too
Hydras are being played now No defiler at 12, Rush should push Cows pressing the tank line at 12, takes all but 1 out 2 creep colonys trying to get setup Morph in but die Defiler at 12, but the hatchery goes down! SK mined out at main and nat, almost at 6 Vultures roaming around run into lurkers Those same vultures run into 3 oclock Mines taking lots of hits on the cows headed towards 9 Rush shelling 6 again 9 oclock gets cleaned up
Soulkey running troops into mines Tanks and vultures trying to fall back, SK loses alot of his force 12 is cleaned up MnM trying to press into 6, playgu Ultraling Pressing into 9 oclock One mine to defend Rush outside of 6 Looks like Pure ling being produced Eraser at 6! Hydras come in and push them out Rush loses 2 vessels at 12ish
Drop on the force at 6 Enough to take out the tanks, now everything else SK poring into 9 oclock Everything gets taken out though Pure ling streaming into 7 HOLD ON RUSH -.- Hatch bbeing remade at 12 Tanks shelling 6 again Drop on the bridge again RUSH Holds the bridge with 3 tanks left
Loses the one vessel though One cow and ultra get it cleared off Swarm on the bridge, forces Rush back 1 oclock and 1 nat almost mined out 9, and 7 almost mined out 12 is getting shelled again 6 getting shelled, but it STILL LIVES 12 oclock getting saved by swarms
6 oclock finally goes down! 12 oclock getting slaughtered, all drones go down, it is undefended All drones long distance mining from 6 Ultraling attacking 9 oclock Comsat goes down for the 100000th time Ultraling gets cleaned up and pushed back SK only distance mining, and from 3 RUSH ATTACK 6 OCLOCK PLS
Rush was so happy, huge grin, CJ all met him outside the booth.
He must feel on top of the world right now. Impressive play from a rookie, hopefully we see more of him. CJ has a pretty strong Terran roster if they are on their game!

If SoulKey had stuck to lurker/hydra instead of ultras, he'd have wasted a ton less ultras on mine/tank. I also think he should have let 12 fall, made sure he kept six, and pasted Rush in the bottom left -> no mining for T.

i dunno if youre trolling/sarcastic/kidding but I like what CJ is doing, give the prospects some playing time and experience on live games.

CJ's got literally nothing to play for. They can't take 1st or fall to 3rd, which means they've got a two-week vacation/prep time after the season ends. They're doing the right thing.
Woongjin, on the other hand... I know we've made playoffs but can't we actually try to win?
Really setting up his nat aswell Vulture trying to get in, but the bunker is preventing it Lands rax next to bunker 2nd fact from Really Starport from Mong
they can't have players pausing for no reason. and if they let them do it without consequence then players will think they can do it without anything bad happening. which will be stupid. so they really dont have a choice

kespa does have a system of warnings and such afaik. Even the other day in the leta vs um, what protoss was taht? The protoss minimized the game, kespa ref paused, and the protoss got a warning.
edit- ^to above- options is hotkey "o" and pause is hotkey "p" in the menu. I assume mong was trying to adjust sound as fast as possible and used hotkeys.
Lair complete for both players Spires morphing Where taking his 2nd gas faster than Woon Misclick? Where canceled something by his mineral line at the nat Tons of lings from both players, looks like Where has a bit more No concave Where breaks the lings
Drones pulled to defend the counter attack Woon just pumping drones Forced drones off the line, taking them out Woon kills quite a few lings 4 mutas vs 2 Woon has more mutas coming out, but is losing his drones The muta stacks look in favor or Where, it does GG from Woon

Thank you ^^ Didn't notice, me awaiting my food =P
Turrets are up Spire complete Mutas out, flying towards Sin SORRY back! Looks like the tables have turned Where has MnM in his nat, drones pulled, all dead, mutas look to be dead Hatchery goes down 3 creep colonys trying to morph to sunkens in main GG Ace match!~
cj isn't trolling. they've secured 2nd place, so why not give some rookies some experience. trolling is when january sends out rookies when they are fighting for playoff spots.
i think cj WANTS woongjin to win. i think their chances of defeating woongjin are much higher than beating samsung and thus they purposely sent out their rookies??? so that woongjin can win and solidify their spot in the playoffs
wait rofl only 1 protoss total from both teams today? what is going on LOLOL I guess CJ's #2 spot is certain so they don't mind sending out the rookies?

Well with free slumping hard Stars have 0 competent Protoss. T.T But yeah, CJ went to town with their B-team today.
1 turret, and marines warding the mutas away Mutas get the one turret 4 rax total, vessel tech on the way, starport complete with add on building, factory is complete with add on
are the top teams sending out newbies to get experiences without worrying about winning or losing? if so isn't that a bit unfair for teams who are still battling for last few playoff spots...
Hive is morphing Vessels are out now 6 or 7 lurkers burrow , take out alot of MnM TONS OF MNM One tank sniped, Two tanks sniped by mutas Vessel gets hit aswell Facility still flashing MutaLurkerLing moving in Vessel goes down, 2nd one is here Scan on the lurkers Only 3 mutas left Lurkersling breaking the nat Lings just rallied into his nat

I can see ZerO's interview already: "It's a shame that Soulkey lost today, but that's to be expected of his skill even when he plays against a rookie. Today's ace match showed how much of a different level I am on compared to him. But I have full faith that perhaps he will be able to beat a rookie someday. Maybe someday, Soulkey!"
Nice to see Stars win though, even though they looked quite shaky today. :S

Watch out for CJ in the playoffs. Watch out!
light got cheesed, soulkey lost to a terran on la mancha, and free is slumping. an in-form stars team is a force to be reckoned with, its just a shame that right now theres no good protoss (free is out of it, guemchi and flying are terrible) and the only rookie that seems capable of winning games is hon sin

Yeah, but we sent Light-ZerO-Soulkey-Really first. Would have seen free/Flying/Guemchi, I'm guessing, except the last two maps are Zerg-y. The only A-teamer CJ sent was Snow, and he's been playing bad (well maybe BByong counts as A-team by now).

It seemed to me the "B-teamers" CJ sent have more experience in regular PL than Stars', like BByong like you said. I mean CJ IS IN the DL finals, so people should have some more respect for them. But still, I think the only disappointment a stars' fan should feel is over SK's game. I mean ZerO won both his games, we never got to see how Really's would've played out, and Light got cheesed. Derp? I don't want to come off like never seeing wrong in Woongjin, I'm definitely one to criticize my own team when it's warranted, but I didn't think this match was THAT huge of a disappointment outside of SK's game.
