lol this Fantasy vs True game is just...defying words.

"This game, people will remember for years." - Wolf

Maybe, but for the right reasons?

IM vs Samsung:

Thank god it's finally over

Rogue vs Classic pretty good game too.

Jin Air vs SKT

The announcers on the JA vs SKT match were hilarious.

SOULKEYYYYYYYY

Wolf saying that Creator looked like the Emperor from Return of the Jedi was totally hilarious

Dammit Maru finally failed. Still dominating the 3 person FPL 2+2 group

Maru best anti-team pick evar

Shine vs Swagger? The **** kind of names are those, am I watching LOL or COD or some ****?

Swagger aka Killer aka BabyByeBye aka SangHo GOAT

Oh man, what a brilliant build from Solar vs Billowy. This is so cool and I think people don't use deception in their builds enough:

- gets fast lair (before speed, I think) into fast infestation pit against Billowy's twilight opening
- does NOTHING with the infestation pit, instead proxies a spire in a corner of the map
- Billowy scouts the infestation pit, goes into double robo + robo bay (prob assuming swarm hosts or fast ultras)
- Billowy has just a handful of blink stalkers and loses handily to the muta + ling attack

For the low low price of 100 gas, Solar gives his opponent the complete wrong idea about what units he intends to make. So cool.

Roro wrecking my FPL team.

there were a fair amount of games a while ago (maybe wol even?) where people would rush to infestation pit and not use it for 3-5 minutes, didnt make sense. maybe just to get it scouted, then opponent will be so scared he'll never leave his base..

maruuu =(

Haha seriously.

I dare say my predictions weren't too bad, with two exceptions. Actual standings after one round:

1. KT Rolster (+2 vs my prediction)
2. Samsung Galaxy (+4)
3. SKT1 (-2)
4. Jin Air (0)
5. IM (0)
6. CJ Entus (-4)
7. MVP (0)
8. Prime (0)

So, four teams dead on, two teams close, two teams way off. Given that KT and SKT1 are separated by just one game (6-1 vs 5-2), I'll take that one, and it's still inarguable that SKT1 has the strongest lineup in the league, two losses or not.

For the teams I was way off on - apparently Roro just feeds off anti-team selections, because after doing literally nothing in his career after the HotS release (out of Code S in two seasons, out of Hot6ix Cup in first round), he's somehow 5-1 and looking like he's in total command of how to build fearsome lategame armies again. Shine, aka that super cheesy Zerg that made a GSL Ro16 once, is 4-0, and relative unknown Solar is 4-2 including an inspirational double-win against sOs. All their non-Zergs suck but that doesn't appear to matter for them now. It will down the road, I think.

And I guess I overestimated the Coach Park effect for CJ Entus, cause wow they suck despite having a fairly talented roster. Sora may not have been around long enough to be in the Rain/Parting tier of Protosses but his results may indicate he belongs there, and Hero recently won an IEM and has shown in the past he can be a top-tier Protoss. Unfortunately, Hydra has been the worst player in Proleague (0-5), Effort has barely played??? (1-2), and they're lacking in Terran skill (Bunny/Bbyong combined 1-2). Hopefully Hydra will figure his **** out, Coach Park will play Effort more, and Gumiho will bolster their lineup to get them back where they belong.

Also, let the history books show that YongHwa's loss last night was the final dagger in IM's playoff hopes. Good one, buddy.

Seriously, how is shine 7-0 vs soulkey?!?!

Hey Twitch/SPL, go **** yourselves:

Anyway, Jin Air/SKT entering game two. After a ZvZZzzzZzZ we have Parting vs Rogue coming up, should be good.

Rogue played that zvz really well, and SoO is no slouch in that matchup.

on it!

will regret as always.


ps: rogue got in code S by beating parting and soulkey i think? something like that...

Yep that's more or less how I handle the immortal allin as well after I scout it.

It was the IEM Katowice qualifier he beasted through, he's not in Code S. (still very impressive)

its almost maru time

ah makes sense

༼ つ ◕_◕༽つ THE POWER OF PROTOSS ༼ つ ◕_◕༽つ

the pvz was super lame but the others were just great execution by parting
