[SPL] CJ Entus vs Samsung Khan Round 4. Week 2.
Monday, Apr 15 6:00am GMT (GMT+00:00)http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2012-2013_Proleague/Round_4 TL Preview: LeeSsangRok Casters: supernovamaniac and WhiplashStream: Twitch EN Bong < Naro Station > StorkEffOrt < Korhal Floating Island > SolarHydra < Whirlwind LE > RealityherO[jOin] < Neo Planet S > TurNBbyong < Newkirk Redevelopment Precinct > JangBisKyHigh < Akilon Wastes > RorO+ Show Spoiler [Ace] + + Show Spoiler [Spoiler-Free] ++ Show Spoiler [Overall Results] + + Show Spoiler ++ Show Spoiler [Game 1] + Stork opens with a proxy gate and kills 3 probes with two zealots. Stork is slightly ahead in the probe count and he transitions into stargate and an oracle, while Bong goes blink. Bong pressures Stork with his blink stalkers while taking his natural. By the time Stork gets down his ramp Bong's nat is mining well and has transitioned into Archons, which Stork scouts and prompts an all in. Stork attacks with 2 voidrays, gateway units and 2 immortals, killing off Bong's natural. Stork then takes his own expansion while camping in front of Bong's base. Bong tries to go for a runby, but Stork scouts it and runs his army back. A good blink into Stork's main nets Bong a few pulled probes, but none of his stalkers escape because of Stork's army splitting. Bong tries to reexpand and go colossus tech at the same time, but Stork scouts and attacks again into gg
+ Show Spoiler [Game 2] + Essentially mirror builds, muta vs muta, with Solar a drone or two ahead for most of the game. But EffOrt's multitask proves to be superior as he is able to harass Solar's main, killing queens and a few drones every once in a while. EffOrt is just more aggressive and relentless with his harass, and the game decisively swings in his favor when he snipes the third with ling runbys all over the place. The first big muta battle occurs between EffOrt's third and nat with Solar with more mutas, but a few queens and a spore crawler even it out, and Solar runs away before they each lose everything. Solar remakes his third really late, and more runbys kill drones. EffOrt rides that economic advantage into a win after attacking Solar's natural with mutas and lings, overruning him.
+ Show Spoiler [Game 3] + Cross positions on Whirlwind. Both players decide to macro with fast 3rds. Nothing happens. Hydra goes muta and Reality bio mine. Something finally happens at 11 minutes when Hydra tries a ling bling bust while Reality's units are in the middle of the map. Hydra busts the front but doesn't do damage and loses sooo many mutas trying to escape. Hydra gets a surround on Reality's vanguard and does good damage, forcing Reality back, but Hydra is not taking care of his lings and loses tons to mines. But with a big ling bling muta force and 4 bases, Hydra is able to force Reality all the way back to his base. Hydra decides to go ultras, feeling safe as he's stopped all drops and harass. A massive fungal on Reality's army in the middle of the map delivers massive damage in exchange for zerglings, but Reality is almost maxed and Hydra is trying to resupply with ling ultra. Their armies clash in the middle but things look even... until Hydra starts a dozen Broodlords. Reality's drops finally do damage putting Hydra on 3 bases, but Hydra flutters on towards Reality's base. Drop in Hydra's main. Ultra ling Broodlord loks unstoppable but Hydra has no anti air against the vikings. The queens catch up and help out versus the vikings, and while the widow mines do good damage Hydra's army looks too strong. Both players on 3 bases but they are both basically mined out. Reality trying his best to pump out more units, but Hydra's army is still huge. Super scrappy game! Hydra loses his units trying to bust up Reality's main base, and Reality has a hidden expo. Hydra's army is destroyed and the game settles down, both players trying to start mining enough again. Reality's cheeky vikings snipe overlords in Hydra's bases. Game calms down, but Reality now has a huge army while Hydra once again with ling ultra infestor. Armies clash and Reality comes out on top. Reality is out of gas but has 3k minerals and a secret base still. Hydra is mined out, and ggs.
+ Show Spoiler [Game 4] + Standard builds from each player, but Turn with slight mind games (1 gas) makes herO a little cautious expanding after mamacore and sentry. Turn's natural is taken earlier than herO. Turn fakes some marine aggression and takes a greedy 3rd cc, building it there. herO scouts it turning into an orbital. Medivacs are out for Turn while herO is chronoing out colossi. A fake drop by Turn with empty medivacs forces a photon overdrive on the main nexus. A warp prism flies into Turn's main and drops a few zealots. Turn runs back to take care of the warp in but herO attacks Turn's third with his main army. SCVs go down, but he saves the third. herO gathers his army and walks towards the third again, and Turn's army meets him in the middle. Turn pulls back because he lacks vikings, so herO walks over to the third. Turn pulls his SCVs and pushes herO back, taking down a colossus! herO retreats and takes his third, but Turn has had his for a while. Turn has an economic advantage but look here, Turn pulls his SCVs! But great forcefields cut off the SCVs and they all die. Turn's army is larger and he pushes into herO's third. It's close but a crucial pylon snipe stops reinforcements! Turn kills herO's third and he doesn't have many units. Turn's marauder reinforcements aren't enough and Turn has overextended. The dust settles and Turn is ahead 10 SCVs and a base. Turn macros up a new army and attacks, and even though herO has 2 colossi the marauders are too much, and he ggs.
+ Show Spoiler [Game 5] + Reaper into reactor and expand for Bbyong, double gas for JangBi. Bbyong does an ebay block, and delays JangBi's expo. Standard builds for each player, but robo and forge for JangBi. He gets +1 armor first. Starport on the way for Bbyong while JangBi is getting his robo bay. Mass marines for Bbyong and he pushes out into the middle of the map. JangBi ballsy and meets the marines with a tiny army, but solid forcefields allow him to beat back Bbyong and even save his colossus. JangBi pumping out storm and charge now, but Bbyong's third is almost done. Upgrades for JangBi are ahead by 1, and he takes a third when Storm finishes. Bbyong sees the templar and reacts by putting down his ghost academy. JangBi moves out but Bbyong immediately pulls his SCVs, and even with some good storms Bbyong overwhelms JangBi's army. A drop at the back takes out a few artosis pylons! JangBi doesn't have enough! JangBi ggs.

What ever happened to Bbyong in SC2? Sure he felt like a gimmicky player but he was the first to get into Code S on his own. His TvP is the only thing saving him right now because his TvT and TvZ are abysmal.

Prediction Bong < Stork EffOrt > Solar Hydra > Reality herO > TurN Bbyong < JangBi sKyHigh < RorO herO < RorO
CJ Entus 3 - 4 Samsung Khan
I'm rooting for herO, Bbyong, and CJ Entus... but RorO has been impressing me...

He got Code S because he qualified for the 3 open seasons, but he lost 2 of them in the first round and got to the ro32 in season 1. Then he won 0 maps in code s jan 2011
