Sonic: You are playing a big role for your team. Terror: Yes, that's right.
Sonic: If you were to chose the MVP, who would it be? Terror: Britney.
Sonic: But he lost? Terror: Yes, but whether he comes out first or not he is going to lose. Since he didn't come out first, we were able to start the match with a win.
Sonic: You were saying you were going to throw Britney into the sea. Terror: Yes, that's right.
Sonic: Haha I see. Well, with the current trend of STX you might even go for 5 wins. What do you think if your opponent is Oz? Terror: HiyA is good and so is Killer, so it may be difficult to all-kill. The rest are trash. I can get the rest and my teammates can snipe those two, like we did with Bisu.
Sonic: We don't know if its Oz or MBC tomorrow but it won't matter, right? Terror: Yes.
Sonic: You guys beat SKT, so you are currently considered the best team. Terror: Yes.
bold by CJ to send out mong so early. Last time they held him in reserve to snipe hero. If mong loses to shuttle or mini then no-one else stands much of a chance against hero. Movie might hope for an upset, but hero has been so strong lately.

bold by Mong, since he's the captain (decides who goes next) :p
I don't understand how Mong was able to push out and win with so few Marines. He lost his first marine force cheaply to lings. Then the mutas seemed to do nothing and where forced onto the defensive as Mong pushed out with a small marine force. Then he pushed up a ramp with lurkers at the top and killed the third. I just don't get how Mong could be on the front foot/aggressive despite the very bad opening for him. Then continue to out against mutas and lings and finally up a position so unfavourably well defended.

ZvT (and any Zv matchup) is highly dependant on the number of drones/army the zerg produces. If Terror went heavy on drones (which he did I think), there's a weakness to exploit by Mong. He nearly got away with it but Mong managed to punish it and from then on it would be a nightmare to play for Terror.

The other thing about zvt is that 2 lurkers can kill 20 marines, or 2 marines can kill 2 lurkers, all dependent on situation. Mong lost his first marines stupidly, went for a desparation break up the ramp to the third, which also failed, but then terror was too slow to reinforce that crucial position (probably typing something clever in chat) and so mong was able to kill 4 lurkers without losing pretty much anything, despite having almost no army. He was way behind, but terror being sloppy was still enough to hand him the game.
Kwanro is putting up a good show. The drop and 3rd ambush would work so well if he only got the swarm down in time. Nice snipe of the natural too. 5th base is a bit late though. Overall I'm quite impressed.
I thought for a second that we would see a proper kwanroll. I never thought i would witness one again, but after today it feels like a possibility again at least : D

hmm idk. haven't seen Hm[ArnC] and Starry at all, but then again where would I see them? and Hint played for KHAN, so I guess KT isn't playing. They would get crushed hard anyway.
There should be a match tomorrow according to the interview btw. Oz or MBC it looks like.
