compared to the first nights matches, tonights seem kind of tame, but I am looking forward to Fantasy playing TvP and GGPlay vs Kal
|
I'm really looking forward to UpMagic vs Flash. Hopefully Up can produce something fun and bring Flash down in TvT again.

Well hopefully flash will win even though he didnt practice for it...
|
I'm interested in the first match just because of its implications on Bisu's OSL. Also, I really hope GGPlay can pull a win over Kal.
|
Hot_Bid is from Braavos?!? please don't kill me.
I'm hoping UpMagic can take out Flash, but... Flash's TvT is intense.
|
Even though Flash hasn't practiced he SHOULD win ... but UpMagiC is doing better recently so it could go either way ... Flash needs to win ... can't afford to drop more after the stupid MSL in Liquibet
|
hopefully fantasy picks tester apart like he did tempest on destination
plus i don't think tester has much of a chance especially on ROTK..
|
Now would be a good time for GGPlay to stop slumping.
|
|
Hehe exact same liquibet as me, hopefully this works out tonight and I hit 18/20 for OSL.

July, Fantasy, Flash, Kal
Yarnc's ZvZ is pretty garbage, only really shines in ZvT. Fantasy better win. His opponent is Tester. Tester... Can't go wrong with Flash in any matchup. UpMagic has shown signs of great play, but it's Flash we're talking about. Kal PvZ really good. GGPlay needs to stop sucking.
|
|
It's funny...Yarnc has the reputation for great muta micro and it seems most are picking him over July...yet Yarnc has 48% ZvZ and July 56%. Not a huge difference, but certainly not in Yarnc's favor.
I suppose it could be because July has lost ZvZ to some bad players in the last couple months.
(Their career record against each other 3-3.)
|
Yarnc has been fucking EXCELLENT in ALL MUs as of late. He is defiantly the favorite over July (anyone saying Yarnc doesn't have good ZvZ just watch his game vs JD from a bit ago). That said, July is way cooler than Yarnc so I hope he wins.

(Their career record against each other 3-3.) My reason for predicting that he'll win is purely because he's been tearing shit up lately with all-kills and such against decent players too, I recall he beat FlaSh quite convincingly not too long ago with some sick muta micro.
In fairness I haven't seen any of July's recent games and I'm not 100% what his recent results and form have been so I wouldn't be at all surprised if he turned up and gave FakeYellow the raping of his life.

Yarnc > July
Both Park bros have been on fire lately, and yarnc's always had amazing muta control. Sure he lost to savior, but hey, it's '09, everyone will. July just hasn't shown enough zvz skill lately for me to give this to him (he lost to s2 last november, and has only won two games since).
Fantasy > Tester
I really don't like either of these players. But i don't think that anyone will admit that tester is anywhere close to the quality of any other player in the osl, and especially not fantasy.
Flash > Upmagic
I think Up has a chance here if he plays creatively, but he just can't handle flash in a standard game. If this goes past 15 min (sigh....tvt....) then Up has no chance
Kal > GGPlay
This match sucks. Kal has been terrible lately, and GGPlay has never been great zvp. He's definitely not in top form now anyway. I'm only giving this to Kal because he used to be one of the best pvz players. Hopefully the Kal from GomTV msl s4 shows up. Otherwise this will be a boring match between two bad players.
|
YellOw[ArnC] < Tears of the Moon > JulyZerg
JulyZerg has been playing really well as of late, whereas YellOw[ArnC] lost to sAviOr, for example. I'd say that it depends on build orders, and that July has better micro overall. But it's a ZvZ, you never know.
fantasy < Return of the King > Tester
Tester is a PvT specialist. To be honest, fantasy probably has the better chance to win the game, but I just love his expression when he's losing too much.
UpMagiC < Sin Chupung-Ryeong > Flash
UpMagiC is probably the underdog once again, but I feel like he's going to do some kind of a creative cheese and that Flash is going to 14cc himself to death here.
GGPlay < Medusa > Kal
This is pretty tough to call, since both players are slumping quite hard. However, I think that Kal especially has been shaky and I think that GGPlay should be able to overcome him. And to comment on what someone said a few posts ago, Medusa definitely isn't P>>>Z, in fact it's exactly 50% right now.
|
I think I might be the first person to predict a tester win over Fantasy.
Edit: Dang, one post above me.

I'd still love it if he managed to win.

Probably from playing majority of ZvZs in ICCUP or something. >_>

Going with:
YellOw[ArnC] < July fantasy > Tester UpMagiC < Flash GGPlay < Kal (I hope at least, Kal hasn't been too hot lately but neither has GGPlay)
Fantasy's OSL run was a fluke? Maybe..but Tester making it even this far was a fluke as well. He's terrible. If they were playing on Medusa...I'd still probably bet on Fantasy.
|
July and YellOw[ArnC] have both been playing excellently to be fair. July went on a bad zvz losing streak but at least won his last two. Id' say given July is a champ though you have to favor him over YellOw[ArnC]. I mean July is ripping it up in proleague/winners league where he supposedly underperforms, do you really expect him to let down in his favorite tourney?
Other matches I think are pretty obvious who will win, but hoping to see some cheese/creative builds from Flash or Upmagic.

Tester has surprised me at times and i personally dont believe at all in fantasys tvp, if it was tvt against a player of testers calibur i would go with fantasy.

Dont kid yourself the Leta game was not orthodox you can hardly cite it and Bisu was slumping in pvz at the time hardcore.

The best way to judge it is actually seeing how good Savior looks during the games.

IMO Savior is definetly improving however he still shows some sloppy play especially in his last zvz, I do believe in a Savior comeback but i dont think the time is now. Sorry to go offtopic from the osl 1-2.

lol @ pple saying yarnc has bad zvz and / or bad muta micro looooooooooooooooooool
|
Yarnc > July. 50/50 game, could go either way. I'm picking Yarnc due to my coin coming up heads.
fantasy > Tester. Easiest pick of the night. I didn't even know Tester qualified till the group selection the other night. Tester is out of his depth.
Up > Flash. Up is showing good form atm and is a tricky player. His mech play is very sound and I think his style will be a good counter for flash's strong, yet predictable style.
GGplay > Kal. GGplay is a hohum player who seems to save his best for OSLs. Neither player is really inspiring me right now so I'll give GGplay the slight edge.
TvT doesn't do it for me, but I think Up vs Flash will provide the highlight of the night.
|
Predictions:
Yarnc > July- It's a ZvZ so its a virtual coin-toss. However, July has lost 7 of his last 10 ZvZ's. I'm taking Yarnc in this one as a result. Fantasy > Tester- Odds are, Tester is not going to win this match. All I'm saying. Upmagic < Flash- Flash's TvT is just amazing, I don't really think upmagic can take him in a standard match, upmagic needs to be creative to even have a shot. GGplay > Kal- Coin toss take your pick. Both are relatively inconsistent in some ways (Kal lost to Huck, HUCK.) and GGplay hasn't been overwhelming at all.
|
I don't know why people are naysaying this. I think these are going to be great games. Whenever I watch players who aren't as "dominant" I'm usually pleasantly surprised by the games.

Tester vs Fantasy: Tester has the easy race.

As long as July wins, I'm happy. I don't really care about the other matches.

july is red @ 2, yanrc in beige @ 10

red got gas before pool, peach got pool before gas

Damn, I dunno who to root for; I love both of these players.

it seems yaoyuan is never working as well >_< the only stream i can watch but it's broken like 95.8% of the time >_<;
|
ah, july fast lair.
mirror builds.
|
both getting lair, peach has 6 lings out
|
Yarnc has more lings but can't use them
|
red has his 6 lings protecting his ramp, peach attacking, red pulls a drone to help
|
yarnc harassing at july's ramp. july killed 1 ling.
|
|
july's spire might be a second faster than yarnc, july also has a sunken beside his gas
|
Spire seems to start at equal times, but july put down a sunken.
|
|
both get another hatch.
july has a sunken.
|
july making a 2nd hatch in his main, so is yarnc
|
ok i take that back yaoyuan is suddenly working go july~ ^_^;
|
ling battle, July wins despite bad positioning
scourge for July, muta for yarnc
|
yarnc spire finished. larvae turn into eggs.
july's ling kill most of yarncs.
july got scourges! he's heading towards yarnc's base with lings/scourge.
|
this is going to come down to micro since they have essentially mirror builds, july's lings got a good angle and took out most of yarncs lings, july went scourge first and yarnc went muta first, july kills 2 and injures 1 muta with his scourge
|
yarnc micro'd against scourge, but got damaged somewhat.
yarnc kills july's lings.
|
|
Yarnc mutas kill some lings, and my vlc dies
|
|
looks like yarnc sent a few lings to july's mineral line but they were killed
|
Both have a good number of mutas, with some scourges.
|
|
they are both doing the exact same thing.
|
Yarnc has a decent fleet, gonna be hard for July now
|
what stream works best for you guys?
|
yarnc killed all of july's mutas.
|
i got a few secs of stream, yarnc appears to be winning the muta micro
|
|
How the fuck did that happen? Yarnc wins up 4 mutas and like a dozen lings, easy win.
|
I can't find a working stream tonight...
|
Yarnc handling July's scourge well won him the game - He had more muta in the ending battle
|
no clue what happened but somehow yarnc wins
|

July's desicion to make a sunken forced him to start with 6 scurge, which costed him the game. Not the most entertaining ZvZ i've seen

I dunno why >,<
I wasn't paying close enough attention during early game but it did find yellow's base with his overlord really late so maybe he was in the dark and the 6 lings may have seemed early to him? and he was obviously afraid of more coming
|
July had 28, yarnc like 36 supply at the start of the battle. The outcome shouldn't be that surprising.. I'm fairly certain yarnc had more drones because july made so many lings that Yarnc ended up killing, plus the sunken as well. Also, yarnc had 2 mutas left after killing the initial 6 scourge.
EDIT: WTF, ret said basically the exact same thing I did. Awesome.
|
Oh shit, look at their apms, their almost identical ;O

Didn't really care for either player, but for Stork's sake the result came out pretty well. Had July won the chance of Stork making it out would've been slimmer.

Wasn't it pretty obvious that Yarnc would win following that failed sourge attack?
I think it's pretty easy to follow games where the builds are fairly similar, or ones where one side obviously have a BO advantage.
The hard ones are very divergent builds, like 2-base spore/ling vs 1-base muta/ling.

Ally 1 of them, Shift Tab. Ally= yellow, Red = enemy. This is normally for when the colors are identical and same race.

GO TESTER!!! ESTRO HWAITING!

fantasy has such big hands.

Is it just me or did the booth girls become better-looking since last time?

what the heck are all those icons on the desktop for? sheesh

Tester better show that he is qualified to even play in this OSL =/ I do not wanna see a disappointing PvT by him even though it is his best MU.

Fantasy looks like a younger version of the current old boxer, but he doesnt really look like how boxer did when he was actually younger.
And I predict dts from tester.

Fantasy builds a proxy rax that gets scouted, finished just before the scv can die to a probe. Two gates for Tester after his 14CC.
Fantasy sends his rine back hom which is dumb
|
what is that barracks doing htere?

Tester quickly scouts the proxy and puts down 2 gates before gas.

Fantasy with a bunker rush, bunker out of range of the nexus I think. Not 100%

Why didn't tester attack with those zealots and the probes? Is there something I'm missing? =D

Goons try to sneak past, blocked and die

fantasy landed his rax in tester's base, and cr8 a rine lol.. nexus down for tester..
|
Rax floated into Tester's main, rine dies to zeal
|
This is embarassing for Tester, lol

range goons taking out the bunker. so many mines though.

Tester intelligently not attacking with his 4th goon, allowing the bunker to survive for a lot longer.

Fantasy has 5 tanks and a turret and a few vultures protecting his nat, Tester's nat finishes, he has about 6 goons and a reaver with 2 zealots in the shuttle, fantasy is mining the center

Imo Fantasy should have gone double expo Flash style.
Unless Tester does a great flank, i can't see him winning this.

All Fantasy needs is 4 gols to shoot down the shuttle, then get 110 supply. The only way he can lose is if he is bulldogged.
Here he goes.

Tester for some reason not advancing with the shuttle, fantasy sneaks 3 vultures in Testers nat, kills 2-3 probes, Fantasy with more tanks than tester has goons right now, looks to be pushing.

wow, Tester doing a nice job of delaying Fantasy.
|
Battle ensues, goons+reaver try to attack down a ramp but retreat with minimal losses
|
|
nice zealot bomb gets atleast 2 tanks
|
Tester manages to use his Reaver to keep fantasy pinned back in his base for now, but fantasy is moving up the ramp to the middle ground again. Nice zealot bomb kills a tank and some vultures, it seems. Tester is getting a decent army. no speed yet but that should be coming shortly...
|
nice zealot bomb.
oh my god, this guy is genius at delaying terran.

Quite a nice army for tester now...
Fantasy has a 3rd up

yeah definitely, every unit of Tester's right now is very crucial to his effort. hopefully this doesn't change things.

I think I heard the word 'keyboarduh' from the guy making a statement. Or I'm crazy, one of the two.

Ya i completely agree with this... tester is playing SHARP o.O despite being sooo behind Heyy, I told you he's a PvT specialist-o! He truly is. It's amazing to see how elegantly and accurately he positions his goons inches behind tank range to stall the push to maximum effect. And the use of the reaver to take out turrets and tank leapfrogging forward is hardly anything new, but it's so beautiful to see it pulled off between macro rounds.

while it was clear that tester was at a disadvantage in that game, there was a very real chance he could have come back seeing as he still had his army. Assuming he lost those goons due to the malfunction, a regame IS warranted; although it would really really really suck from fantasy's point of view.

yeah i was saying to my friend tristan how horribly this was going, and now x1000 moreso
you are playing someone who's WAY better than you by most people's opinions.
as if that isn't enough, fantasy perfectly predicted tester's opening and raped it in half.
8 minutes into the game, terran has 20 more food than protoss.
then tester starts losing units terribly and then PAUSE.
no all is fine you just don't have 7 goons.
DOUBLE PAUSE

i was going to say: "slowest push ever"
but i guess that joke has been exhausted

I hope for a rematch, Tester seems to be able to provide us a good match.

A regame would be so sad at this point, but so is Tester losing those goons. Didn't some guy come up with a program thing that let you take a specific time in a rep, and turn it into a saved game that you could play? They could totally use that here.

A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?”
The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard.
The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?“

I think the best outcome is for Tester to be super manner and concede the game to Fantasy. Honestly, there was almost no chance he was going to win this, with those 8 goons or without.
Then again, I just can't see Fantasy losing the regame either. So maybe this won't even matter.

to be fair fantasy was definitely ahead but tester was doing such a fantastic job of delaying the push for so long and he had a nice army composition, now adding zealots (probably speed soon).
all it takes is the terran to do one bad push or the toss to flank with good timing, and you can't argue that 7-8 goons would not matter in a situation like that...

I'm kind of hoping for a regame
after seeing how tester was destroying fantasy's push from such a bad position, it could be a really good game

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat the problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300°C.

Had he pushed up the high ground.. Well.. I don't know if that'd be better, with the goons holding it and the shuttle/reaver still in play. I agree, Tester really had a shot at coming back here.

Oh I would always choose to have 7 more goons too. It sucks for Tester.
I wonder what the rules are for malfunctions. Maybe Tester is just scamming a regame cause his nexus fell apart.

Alright, game back on.
Honestly, Tester's in a lose-lose situation no matter what. If they regame, people get pissy because fantasy did have that lead. If he plays on and the keyboard isn't in full working condition, he gets shafted that way.

I really felt bad for Tester. When you're down and you're doing your best to come back... and that happens. I agree with the decision, because a rematch would've been EXTREMELY unfair to Fantasy, but still sucks for Tester.
I think Upmagic should just BBS against Flash and see how it works out. No way he can win in a macro game.

Exactly.
That, and Upmagic generally isn't known for his macro, unlike Hwasin who does have general S-class skills.
Of course, this game will be standard, so we'll see how it plays out.

I don't know. I don't agree though. UpMagiC can be surprising. I refer back to when he played Hwasin in a bo3 series for a league awhile ago, and he was down 1 and the next week he surprised everyone with magnificent macro and superb dropship timing. He won 2-1.

Flash mines the ramp behind upmagic's nat, upmagic builds a depot to block the path in the case for vulture harrass. Upmagic moves up with about 5 tanks and kills like 4 vultures for free and shoots at flash's 2 tanks with a wraith. Where are all of Flash's tanks?

up has more tanks and his wraith is pwning

Upmagic moves up and sieges on the lowground, wraith provides vision and tanks blast a few vultures

|
Upmagic's third CC is already up and Flash is trying to harrass with some vuls, failing. Flash has a weird hidden starport above his nat. Upmagic's tanks are positioned bad and Flash manages to kill 2 of them. Upmagic moving forward against Flash but his tanks aren't optimally positioned once again. Now he's harrassing some of Flash's tanks with wraiths, kills one but loses 1 wraith to a goliath. O_o

Hey! Calm down, jeez. I didn't mean nothin' by the correction, like implying that you are a newb or something. I mix up players sometimes too.

Upmagic chasing flash's dropship with a wraith, kills it before losing it to a goliath. Upmagic saves his 4th cc that's in middle left. Flash has finally gotten some units but Upmagic seems to have better map.. precense?`Flash sneaks 4 vultures behind up's third but wraiths catch them and start to slowly kill them. Tanks come to assist. Upmagic seems to be ahead, although Flash is getting his fourth... and now up loses some tanks to Flash. and most of his wraiths as well. He seems o have a lot of tanks, but they're spread accross the map...

Lol I know. I was just having some fun.
|
Large push down the left side for Flash... going for Up's 4th, but tanks are sieged and play remains static
|
Flash is moving towards 9 but upmagic seems to have way better positioning and more tanks. Flash's tanks melt. I can't see the upgrades because of the stream but I don't think either player has +2. Upmagic has at least 4 cc's up, I think flash has 4 too but up's 5th is almost done. Upmagic seems to have about 65% of the map.
|
Finally Up is getting armories.
Wraiths still doing a good job of picking off tanks.
|
Up has +1 atk on tanks no armor Flash has 0/0
|
upmagic has +40 food on flash...
|
UpMagiC constantly has a few wraiths hovering around that come in handy.
|
Bad attack for Flash on the right side, lost all his tanks. Upmagic leading with both army and economy
|
|
|
ooooh ! BC's coming soon!
|
absolute genius play by upmagic this game
upmagic is completely and totally outplaying flash this game
no bullshit
|
|
Physics lab for up woot woot.
|
Upmagic taking a tank out with wraiths again, losing only one wraith. He's harrassing with those quite well. Flash is sieging up on his high ground. Upmagic has soooo many tanks, I think he has many more than Flash does. Upmagic getting his 6th and I don't know if Flash can fight against that. upmagic massing ports for cruisers, as is Flash but up has way way more economy. I don't think Flash can break up's tank/turret/wraith with ground anyway.
|
Oh oh oh ? Flash already has his. Damn.
|
Upmagic adding starports... Battlecruisers on the way!

flash started bc tech first but if the map control stays as it is now, upmagic will have +2 gas over flash...
|
|
Upmagic with 45 more food than Flash with 2 more bases. Soon up's gonna have to lose some supply for BC's though. Upmagic is getting OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAAAND turrets everywhere.
|
UpMagiC massing turrets everywhere.
|
Flash has cruisers too!!, Upgraded 1/1 already. But Up has about 10 wraiths flying around already...

GOGOGO UPMAGIC!

Flash's cruisers corner 4 tanks and shoot them up
|
It would be awesome if we see ghosts
|
Upmagic seems to be repositioning his tanks to the left side of the map. upmagic has a lot of wraiths. Is he going for a BC snipe? I sure hope so. Upmagic attacking but.. Flash has 3 valkyries? WTF. Upmagic kills one BC but loses some wraiths, he still has about 7. Upmagic moving forward with tanks on the left side. Upmagic is doing about 8 port wraiths. I dont know how good this'll be for him. Flash is cleaning up upmagic's tanks near 10 o'clock. upmagic has a bc of his own now
|
Up: Wraiths/BCs vs. Flash: Valks/BCs.
|
UPMAGIC GETTING BCs too, clever play imo. Valks eat wraiths for breakfast !
|
Flash has about 8 valks!!
|
valks splash a ton of wraiths
|
omg the valks just raped the group of wraiths in like 3 shots.
|
|
omg, the valk/bc combo may prove to turn this game around.
|
CA10824 Posts
unfortunately for flash, upmagic didn't commit to mass wraith.
valks are gonna be useless vs bcs. they'll end up being wasted gas.
also upmagic can just tech switch to mass gol.
|
Man i could watch such TvT's all over again
|
Up massing BC's now, no ports without addons
|
Flash with a nice air fleet of valks and BC's but up still has 2 more gas and has like 50 thousand turrets. Upmagic with wraiths... about 5 die in about 2 seconds. He should switch to BCs. Wraiths don't do anything vs BC/Valk. Flash attacking upmagic's 9 but up has a crapton of turrets there. Flash with 3 BC and 4 valkyries it seems. Upmagic is getting BCs out of many ports. Flash might be able to take 9 out.
|
would it be a bad idea to add some vultures with all those extra minerals?
|
DAMMIT FLASH! I HATE YOU!!!!@!@!!@!@!!11

it may be pretty useful for Flash.

if Up wins this i'm gonna be his fan for eternity (even though he would fuck up my liquibet, but w/e)
|
Up has like 12 starports massing BC's
|
Wow Up has 3k mins and 2k gas
|
probably because of Weapon vs Armor ups. Fully armored BCs are hell for Valks to kill.
|
oh wowowowow Yamato from flash Up losing many BC
|
how the hell did that happen
|
i'm waiting for some epic yamatos/toes?

Up just lost his entire fleet.

Upmagic has some BCs right now but flash seems to have more. Upmagic with like..... 8 port BCs coming? Insane. Flash has more BCs now but I think up is gonna catch up soon. Up is massing a lot of turrets and has a way bigger ground force than Flash does. They're at even spply but Upmagic has 1 more mining base and like 3k mins 2k gas saved up. Upmagic is apparently still mining from 9's gas. coming with BCs now but flash does nice yamatoes. I think flash is able to kill the BC's of upmagic. Yeah, up runs with one. Flash has 4 valks and about 7 bcs. It seems like up has too much supply in tanks. He's gonna lose about 7 of them now to Flash, though.
|
damn Up losing soo many units
|
Tanks being harassed by BCs, Flash now has total air control

Upmagic with 120 supply vs flash's 150 now. The mass wraiths, what was that? Sigh, so annoying. Flash's air fleet in up's main now. I think Flasg can just yeah, yamatoes most of the BCs and kills almost all of up's BC's. Up should still have a nice production but I don't know if it'll be enough. Upmagic has more bc now it seems. Flash is running but the damage might have been done. Oh, he lost another BC and up seems to be catching up in BC's. Flash's economy is still way behind.
|
I don't think Up is out of it yet.
|
Gogogogo UpMagic, you can still win this!
|
|
Up hold on due to spawning Battlecruisers, gonna drag this out some more..
|
let's see some fuckin' FP of this shit!
|
|
UP is definitely still in this.... his econ boost showed right there... bunch of units came out and not as much for flash... however the tides are very even
|
Upmagic is almost even in supply once again, and he lost quite a few of the useless tanks. Flash has 9 now but up has already mined quite a bit of it, so he'll still win the economic war. Upmagic has at least one of the min onlies in the middle. Upmagic might still be able to win the economic fight. He's massing wraiths now since Flash doesnt have many valkyries anymore.

Upmagic seems to have 30 more supply than flash, flash is running low on minerals. Flash is attempting to break the center now but I dont know if he can battle upmagic's 10+ BC's. I think there's gonna be a big yamato war soon, up should have enough yamatoes for every one of flash's bcs. Upmagic sneaks some vults in and kills some of flash's scvs. Nice harrass by upmagic. Killed almost 10 scvs by now, vults still in main. Flash has a vessel and emps, seemed to miss all but one bc.

OUCH THAT EMP MUST HUUUURT

Flash seems to have a few less bcs than upmagic now and he's still behind in economy I think. Upmagic harrassing with wraiths. flash moving to upmagic's main and fires a lot of yamatoes. Upmagic's bcs seem to be out of position, flash has a huge number of bcs. Where's all of up's? upmagic attacking flash's main with tank/wraiths. 80 supply vs 150? Where'd up's units go. upmagic, upmagic, wtf -_-

omg Up cant even get a BC out those BC's kill starports fucking FAAAAST.

Flash definitely has this Poor upmagic doing so well

Flash just needs to type
"That is many BC, yes?"
|
|
Upmagic, how can you get owned so bad even when you're aconomically ahead still? why would you get wraiths vs valkyries, why would you never attack? Annoyinggg. Flash killing upmagic's main and upmagic realizes that maybe having his tanks sit around isn't all that useful and moves forward.
|
I think up learned from pwntrucci, thinking he can defeat a number of battle cruisers with an equal number of wraithszzzz
|
|
Up trying to do something with his ground forces, not really sucessful
|
Upmagic totally outplayed flash with the ground army and then got rolled in the air battle pff
|

upmagic has 4k mins 1k gas but has no production. 100 vs 140 supply. Flash has one mining base.

Angry scvs drilling Flash's CC, he should type out right now

omg, ive never seen this many bc's in a pro game before.

Both players are mined out now, unless upmagic is mining from the middle base still. Yes he is, with just a few scvs. Up has a lot more resources saved up, it's possible for him to do something insane but it's pretty unlikely. Flash has a crapton of bcs.

Upmagic is almost even in supply again, but flash's bc / valk army seems unstoppable. Upmagic has a lot of goliaths, and but a lotI mean a lot. He's moving against flash with wraith / goli and flash is running. Flash comes with valks but those melt. Upmagic has about 40 goliaths I think.

Upmagic will turn this shit around now, trust me =D

Flash doesnt know what to do... deal with the gols or cover his scvs...

Flash is so funny though; floating his barracks over a cc.

should try sending wraiths in 1by until scans used up :x

Flash out of minerals, upmagic still has over a thousand. Upmagic almost lost the game because he kept 60scvs mining on 4 minerals when he had 5k banked.

Upmagic could kill all of flash's scanners, it'd be gg! Upmagic continues killing flash's main, flash's losing his main. 140 vs 105 supply now in favor of upmagic. Upmagic sending in 1 wraith at a time to use up flash's scans. Flash has one scanner / one base left at 10, upmagic is approaching with his army. Flash has NO SCANNERS, DESPERATELY BUILDING A TURRET WHILE UP IS KILLING HIS BCS

Gets a turret up but upmagic is killing his last scanner. Flash can't move off that turret. It'll be his ONLY BUILDING. Flash's lost this game, . He has no minerals to even keep repairing his BCs. I think he's at 0 minerals now. Upmagic can still distancemine from the middle. Flash has about 10 tanks and some BCs. upmagic is attacking with everything, all wraiths and scvs and goliaths! hes going to kill flash, flash GGs!

Wow, I take back ALL the crap I said about Upmagic... That was simply AMAZING.

Yes upmagic!! Flash who? And that was a loong late game victory, in fact a late game turnaround. Nice switch to goliaths, caught Flash off guard.
|
Only caught the end of that game but it looked pretty epic and had a gosu ending.
Itachii I guess you better prepare to fly to Korea and throw your shoes at FlaSh
|
Definitely game of the night for today ! Unless GGplay vs Kal becomes another GGplay vs Stork.
|
Damn, Flash probably should've taken out the factories when he had a chance. I guess he didn't count on Upmagic having like 5000 minerals left to build an army of goliaths.

question for korean speakers (glares at losingid8)
if his name is Lee Je Dong (according to commercial), why is his tag Jaedong? what's with the disappearing/reappearing 'a' ?

Ah well, was hoping upmagic would go nukes and exploit turret vision range tbh ^^
|
God
I didn't see the game, but if Flash and Upmagic were playing each other's games, I wonder if the comments would be drastically different
|
Seriously, at one point Flash had 12-14 BC:s inside UpMagics main, AND HE STILL DOES NOT WIN? How is that even possible? He took out all starports, and just ripped it.. I don´t understand.
|
bah damn you upmagic ... shouldve NUKED that place !!

The was a great game.
I think any less of a terran would have lost way sooner (flash)
Everybody saying that upmagic needed to cheese to win... you were wrong.

That... was ridiculous. I don't know why flash didn't stay in upmagic base and destroy his production and tech when he killed all of up's bcs, it could have won him the game. Awesome game nevertheless, except I'm 1/3 on LB now =(

Upmagic had alot of surplus banked, he rebuilt all his factory at the right side of the map, while his ground army raided Flash's main. Flash is forced to retreat to repel the army off.

but anyway, korea doesn't really have an official way to romanize things. well, technically they do. however it's super outdated (from the 50s) or something and no one ever uses it. most use the -ae although -e is acceptable.

flash had a pretty small window to make up for the fact that he was one or two bases down after that first bc brawl, up had too much in the bank.

I thought he was going to take out the supply-depos and tech. Thing was, that Flash had the 10 oclock expo secured and could probably have turtled for just a minute more. I think that would could won him this game.

the combination of those made flash have to eventually retreat.

I can't believe Upmagic almost let that game slip away.

also, that makes sense, thanks!

sorry but whats round robin? and who does he play next?

Flash should have cleared the field in the middle of the map when up had not many goliaths and turrets
|
I wouldve liked to see flash atacking his own bcs with his v alks against those wraiths=/ Probably wouldn't have made a difference but still. Learn from Pusan! Sick game though. Specially for TvT.

I learned ae for ㅐ and e for ㅔ. So it would follow Jaedong should be Jedong that way. I thought that was the norm, but I do see all sorts of weird romanizations. You are definitely more familiar too!

Man, UpMagiC had outstanding play that game. The fact that he was able to secure 9 o'clock before taking 7, and while denying Flash 3 o'clock gave him a huge advantage. He was 2 bases ahead of Flash until the BCs came into play. The big mistake UpMagiC made was massing wraiths to counter the initial BCs, which basically got massacred by the valks, and by that time, Flash's BC count was too high to catch up to. The better route would've been to simply mass BCs until 200 supply.

Also at the right theres a thread under league standings called Batoo 2008 OSL that has all the info you could ever want to know about the 2008 OSL including the entire results and the entire schedule. Stop being lazy and look.

Uhh no, Flash destroyed those starports at bottom map, turrets were destroyed too. It was the ground army that raided his main which forced him to retreat.

Unfortunately Upmagic's TvP is open with something cute into getting pwned. So I think Flash is preferable.

I have to take issue with the observer for this one. While Flash was cleaning out Up's base, I never saw what Up was doing that whole time. I kept thinking Goliath switch, but the observer just kept showing Flash's BCs killing starports

i could be totally off though. it's 3:45am over here -_-;

Exactly. Flash was mined out at this point when upmagic was still mining. The 9 o clock base started mining far sooner than the 3 o clock base as well, Flash didn't get much out of that.

Hmm, so
Flash 0-1 Best 0-1 UpMagic 1-0 Hwasin 1-0
+ Show Spoiler +Even though he lost to Hwasin in MSL, Flash probably still beats Hwasin in their next game (given a little more time to prepare and the fact that he'll be prepping TvT for Leta in MSL anyway).
Up versus Hwasin is a real tossup
Best should still beat beat Up, again in spite of his recent loss
And then lastly, Flash vs Best is a big time tossup
Basically, anything can happen in this group except for the original favorites (Flash and Best) both making it out, crazy.

Well, I personally preferred to see what's happening. But I guess this isn't the first time it happens. It's just annoying to "think" one thing, but if you can look at the whole picture it's a different thing.

Hmm. I think you're right. But I was definitely pissed I have to just watch BCs sitting there while there are more important things going on.

Fantastic start for Kal. He scouts first try and is able to 13 nexus. Then makes his gateway before starting any cannons AND blocks the zerg nat with a pylon to delay the hatch there.

Flash had to play these two events one day after another, i dont know why cant they separate them by few days.. We all know how hard it is to play at that high level, so i wish people had time to prepare properly, and to get some rest between, since playing this is extra hard..

I think that would could won him this game. you fail to realize that leading up to this situation, upmagic was sitting on 2 more bases than flash for a large portion of the game. this meant that he had a LOT more resources than flash. flash was mined out, while upmagic was still gathering resources in one of his bases. the outcome was that magical 50 goliath army that came out of nowhere.
Nah, I watched the game and actually saw that he had two more bases, eventhough at the time Flash walked over him in his main, Flash had taken the 10o´clock. And by the time this happened they were pretty equal on supply, eventhough flashed lagged behind economically. Maybe he shouldn´t have retreated. Now he did and lost (he might have lost otherwise anyway).

Exactly this. And he wouldn't get to "rest", he'd have to practice like 12 hours a day anyway. His first game in the msl group was vs Terrans as well.
Kal going for 4gate.. speedlot archon? GGPlay with lurkers out.
|
Oh lurkers, Kal has no observer, so GGplay should be fine..... for now.
|
Flash almost stole that game - what a shame.
Him and Best duking it out for the second spot now? Unless Hwasin or Up goes 3-0 ... then we'd be in for a real show.

while i disagree for it being the reason why flash lost, i do wish they scheduled it a bit better, but there's no way to do it perfectly i guess
plus flash will still find a way to advance, it's flash

LOL KAL KILLED 2 ZEALS WITH ARCHONS, BUT DEALING NO SPLASH DAMAGE TO THE LURKER. WHAT A WASTE.

way to go, Kal even my stream lagged when you did it

GGPlay with a delayed drop. Stopping mining in kal's main.

hahaha nice drop. what a good way to piss off a protoss player.

WOW GGPLAY WITH GREAT DROPS BEHIND MINERAL LINES.

Great harass from GGPlay but im afraid its not enough as hes not going to have the troop count to take a the other main.

only... not enough defense.

RUN YOUR DRONES GGPLAY WTF YOU DOING
|
Huge counter from Kal, breaks the front...GGplay really needed to sunken up there. Huge mistake. Can't see GGPlay comming back now.
|
GGPlay doom drops kals main, killing stuff, kal attacking ggplays natural but GGplay is cleaning it up... Soon? Loses a lot of drones needlessly to 2 archons.

Looking bad for Kal here, GGplay should be able to deflect the push barely.

Oh GGPlay did get a sneaky 4th up! EXPOSED TEMPLARS! Ah zs come back to protect them but some are lost anyways. The sneaky 4th is given away by the drone xfer and kal comes down to take it out. GGplay barely able to defend somehow..suprising really. Nice job by him.
|
Oh wow great storm by kal killing at least 5 drones !
|
LOl killer 2 hydra harass at the min only! GGplay still in this. Wow.

GGPlay is still very much in this.
Just needs to get some more defense!

seriously, that game is amazing in itself just to think about how SICK hwasin's timing sense was. his window of opportunity was so small. i mean think about it, best didn't even take his 3rd because he knows hwasin is a very timing-oriented player so he didn't want to give him a larger window of opportunity. but somehow hwasin still managed to exploit it perfectly.

Great multitask from GG play as he drops lurks and snipes obs with s courge at the nat and harasses the main from above . Kal comes back and clears it up though. FINALLY able to mine from his min only.

GGplay doing a pretty decent job of picking of archons but kal's army looks to be getting too big for zerg to handle. GGPlay in a lot of trouble.
|
|
GGPlay's play is so BBPlay.
|
Ok kal definitely has this, Shutting down GGplay's 5 expo while getting up his min only expo.
|
GGplay isnt preparing hive at all and with more goons than hydras Kal forces a GG.
|
|
gg, hope Kal will be comming back to his old shape after this game.

It looked to me like GGplays strat was hoping that P would get a 3rd base before their robo. This didnt happen so Kal easily had 2 obs out when the lurk harass came, then took the 3rd.

Imo , it is not BeSt that micro'ed terribly. It was his decision making. He coulda waited for his lots to come b4 engaging. Just my 2 cents tho =/

I wonder how Up got so good all of a sudden? He was playing awful for a really long stretch last year. I can't wait to watch that game!

Up is slowly turning into a wildcard again. Impressed
Always liked him, and Im hoping he and Flash advances from the group.

Aw Flash... Now Flash has to beat Hwasin to still have decent chances to advance farther.
Rest of results are not suprising at all. Waiting for vods now.

haha i always knew
upmagic's just too sick
|
I want somebody to make like a dragonball z gif where they are shooting energy balls and then screen out the parts where they show Upmagic and flash's faces sweating. That would be totally baller.
|
Upmagic wasnt sick, mostly huge advantage and money backed up. Flash dropped a level of skill when he didnt take care of his BCs like 2 or 3 times.
|
Up almost blew that game in spectacular fashion (his advantage was enormous for the first half of the game - way more supply, more bases, and more money). But then Flash did blow the game in spectacular fashion.

Upmagic vs Flash was epic. You don't see that level of drama in games anymore, usually when a player gets an advantage at the pro level the game is pretty much decided, but that game went back and forth multiple times, and it seriously looked unwinnable for both players at certain points. Really good game

k I just watched the Up vs Flash game. Ridiculous shit! I don't get how Flash lost though. Was it cuz he was wasting his time killing Up's buildings and letting Up mass goliaths in the meantime. I thought his play towards the end like killing buildings, making Flash waste scans etc with wraiths was really smart.

When was Flash ever in the lead? Sure, his increidble yamatos ensured a longer stay. But upmagic had so much more saved up he managed to rebuilt both his factories and his goliaths while Flash was cleaning up his main.
BCs are the slowest unit in the game. And unlike carriers, you cannot use them as alone as an attack force.

OMFG FUCKING BATTLE CRUISERS AND VALKS, RARE GAME ZOMG. OMFG FUCKING FLASH GOT DESTROYED OMFG.
Ok done with nub talk
Seriously that was one of the best games i've seen, action the whole time, no epic macro build up, and the tide turning so many times. Seriously after Flash uplifted Up's base i thought it was gg but no Up pulled it off and some how destroying Flash with a brilliant tech change.
