>>720805057Gonna lose to BASEDLight.
SHOULDER STATUS: ON FULL DISPLAY
worst result would be -2 terrans
>missed jaedong because i thought it was tuesday+wednesday.
>>720805374good to see they told her whats up. Yesterday was a disgrace. If youre a stargirl, you have to whore out your slutty shoulders.
Last comfy part of the tournament.Single pair playoff days arent so enjoyable.
soulkey is out? thank god
Wish me luck tonight lads
Chuunibyou spotted!

>>720805374
>>720806121You don't like 30+ minute games with siege lines all over the center of the map?
>>720806121
most insane thing I have ever seen in any SC related stuff is one of those algorithm vs algorithm match ups. turns out if you have unlimited APM you can put a bunker between CS and refineries and then have scvs go in and out of it to insta teleport between the structureshttps://youtu.be/Ey8EeLjTAS0?t=747
>>720806121>>720806185Recent TvTs have been way more aggresive with timing pushes and dropship play. The number of split maps has gone down a lot (and me saying that will turn this game into a split map)
lightbros...
*dies without achieving anything*
how did Speed know to make such an early armory
>>720806304SC1 bots can click so much they can make units run over solid objects. They banned that.SC2 also had a human versus AI match. There you also had the game get broken in half because perfect stalker micro is insane.
Speed has been making some very decisive and interesting moves around the map so far.
>>720806254Topkek
Speed is a better player than Lightosis
I look away and every time I look back one of Light's tanks is dying
>>720806393yeah is saw one of those human vs protoss algorithm match ups. Computer did nothing else then build stalkers and the pro player could not even cross the map with its army blob because of endless stalker harassment from all side kek
Speedbros, we got too cocky...
>Sped
It's gonna be light and larva making it through isn't it
>tfw your fingers have 500 APM but your brain has 50 IQhe just keeps sending tanks to the right
>>720806778his name is Speed not Smart
Embarrassed for speed...
>>720806778Spiritually, Speed is a zerg player
>>720806840A Zerg soul trapped in a Terran body.
all his vultures for 2 tankseven trade I'd say
>missed 40min tvtbased, good luck is following me today

Speed struggling to find the quit button
LMAO cockblocked
kek that's just BM at this point
>>720804975every time i click on this website it's less useable
don't worry, speed will have his rematch after soma wins the group
<10 min game incoming
>>720807190>none of the girls hide their facekorea has fallen.
>>720807180Soma is the great white hope for this asl (Zerg)
REDEEM the code sars

beautiful matchup

Time to retire Larva

>>720807984left, are those panties?
>After a period of relative obscurity, it has been discovered that as of 2017, Kim has started working as a procurer in prostitution industry. To further shock and dismay of many StarCraft fans, he even openly advertised his business as being run by a 'former starcraft commentator, "Kim Carrier"'.wait, wat? why didn't he just continue casting?
Soma must win to carry on the Zerg heart
>JP streamhuh
>>720808140...yes
uh somabros I don't feel so good
MAEK
kek what a shit show
take notes shitosis, this is how you defend against muta. might be too late for your low iq 40 year old brain doe but to be fair, it always was.
Soma can't actually commit into that mineral line, gg go next
What a funny game this has been
Light lost, should've targeted the hatchery

>zerg not tapping outBM kekeke
>game has now stabilized and continuingWhat is this shitshow.
maek turret
JESAS
Terran is OP, even on 1 base they can win with literally nothing
>>720809162GOSU strategy tbqh with you famalam
>>720809145You don't stabilize against terran as zerg or toss lmao
>>720809145not really, light was way ahead after all that, 1 base zerg is not a thing
Terran had 2 CCs spitting out SCVs + valk tech. Meanwhile zerg had 1 hatch and no scourge tech.
who are we rooting for? Im going for soma just cause hes underdog
>>720809320soma because we need some Z to have a chance against the Terran menace
>>720809320Zerg so they can assfuck the 4 toss
>marching straight into the zerglings>not waiting for the SCV to tag along and tank the initial attacksBut why, Light?
>>720809358>against the Terran menaceWhat Terran menace? It's literally just Barracks and no one else in the top 8 right now.Gonna be real funny if Light fails today and Barracks becomes the SOLE Terran hope.
he attacked into these sunks just for show before gging right?
>THE TURRETS DIDN'T MAKEMaybe next time Artosis
thighs
should've maek sunks beforelike even one up the ramp might've won him the game
Jaedong bros I still cant get over yesterday..
>>720809810dong sux and has sucked for like 15 years
>>720809810I know bro. It was supposed to be our year.>>720809856fuck off faggot dong was okay.
Has Flash said ME SO SORRY FOR SCAMMU YOU enough times to come back to pro play yet? The king must return.
got him
Light fucked up his push yet again!!!!Why does he do this?
Light really does the early Artosis cheese lol
>>720810047Follow the script
>lightfags
does he cut scvs to get these marines out?
DISHONORABLE TERRAN PLAYS PUNISHED BY ZERG WARRIOR
>>720810074>scriptThat's only for TI.Ame next year for sure.
>>720810095INDEED
REEEEEEEE I DON'T WANNA GO WAGE I WANT TO WATCH GOOKCLICK
It's so funny how ineffectual missile turrets are against mutas.
>>720810185mutas having a small unit size is hilarious.
Over for light
?????
lightosis...
OUTPLAYEDON RAZOR'S EDGE
COULDN'T EVEN KILL THE HATCH
gg, wp Soma. TERRAN DOGS OUT
Lights out
>attackmoves sunkens>first line of marines shooting from max distance, marines behind can't reach, doesn't move them closer>no focus fire, attacks 3 sunkens at the same timeseriously?
>>720810185the damage is ok, the problem is the stack and terran players being so dumb that they are easy to outmaneuver.
Sziky vs OyA vs WolFix - Showmatch #3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeRTEC1YwJE&ab_channel=Pr0nogo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biWphXbcPNc&ab_channel=ElleixGaming Anyone enjoying the new Brood War mod? it introduces 150 new units.
did soma just take pills to calm down?
>>720810352CARLOS!!!
3 base zerg vs 1 base 20 supply Terran.I keep saying it Terran players can't play the game anymore, they only do cheese on top of cheese and hope to gain a victory. None of them can play late game
bare shoulders today
>>720810379holy bloat
This guy puts effort into blinking
>>720810424impossible to defend multiple bases against mutas before you got tech
>>720810603Yeah but if terran keeps cheesing, losing lots of marines for little to no gain their midgame becomes worse, let alone late game
>>720809810Why does he play with zero map vision every game? Literally every match he doesn't see an army until it's in his fucking base. Dismantled by Light and Mini the same exact way. You'd think he'd start patrolling lings in the midgame or some shit after getting fucked the same way so often.
LARVA
kek the hair dryer again
>>720810996Claiming the slampiggy on the left>>720810379Can I play vs AI in this?
Mech, really?
>when you bring your turboshitter online build to a offline gamel to the fucking MAO
bruh
Terran back to 1-base play because they don't wanna play SK Terran
whats up with terrans today and their inability to defend against standard muta builds?
lol
>>720810821thats not what did him yesterday
>>720811427Why are terran and zerg players so allergic to macro games these days? Too old to keep focus for 30 minutes?
How did speed make it this far
>>720811519Zerg does macro every game tho

>centre BarracksOh boy here we go.
dishonest rax
>center barracksis he tilted?
ez zerg win letsgo
>>720812389>12 hatch nevermind it's fucking over
LMAO
the fuck is he thinking with that hatch
Oh nononono
80 IQ vs 70 IQ
Wasn't Light the honest Terran player that basically never cheesed? Now he can't play an honest game anymore?
>>720812439nevermind again we are so back larva bros
>>720811986
>defended without pool
>>720812515He became bad after he won. Probably has no other goals other than winning.
>>720812515He was at one point considered the most standard macro Terran. Though to be fair, it's always good to mix in some cheese in a best of 3/5/7 series.
he doesnt suspect third hatch does he
>>720812590nope, low iq terran shitters always lose to ninja bases
SCV killing hydras will always be funny to me.
there was something noble about these science vessels getting taken out in that fashion
AAAAHHHH STUPID SPIDER MINES
>be T>dont scout>dont protect vessels>win
>Muta/scourge suicide bombing
bro where are the wigglers
Why are Terran players so bad? There are ten Terrans in the ro24 but potentially only one in the ro8
>getting into late macro game nowits over for Larva
>>720813060Because they don't have to be good anymore. Look how much shit 2base terran pumps out
>>720812515Terran cannot beat Zerg in an equal game state
I HECKIN LOVE SCIENCE VESSELS
PLAGUE
>>720813454you are fucking crazy, look how much of an uphill battle a macro game is for the zerg.
>3base vs 6 baseLMAO
GO GO GO LARVA
Larva in top form today
>>720813454SK Terran worked fine when Terran players knew how to play it and didn't throw away 2 first science vessels and dozens of marines to some lurkers
>lost to a retired variety streamer with an exploded wrist
I simply think Terran is gross and all their players are tainted as a result
Soop failed, they should talk with bilibili
PATREON PATREON PATREON
>tfw no suicidal asian gf
>>720813849wrong stream bozo
>>720813668Flash solving the terran meta made them lazy, they are way too used to 1a2a3a4a at min 9/12
>>720813813>simps for alienstypical
>>720813885Just watch the Korean stream, bro. Learn Korean, impress a Korean gorl, move to SK, dabble in BW, accidentally win ASL
Light always looks so listless.
I miss Mind.Now he was a good macro Terran.
>>720814023he's one of the few that maintained that stone cold face from the progaming era
>>720814016i cant read circles
Is it just me or are there way more combined arms builds for terran in this ASL? Previous few years it was all about marines, medics, science vessels
>valk all-in>again
>>720814147Terran cannot beat Zerg in an equal game state
>>720814194And what's equal according to you?
>>720814194Vessel and MnM, stop being lazy, insta stim all the time.
>>720814023Light is the gentle giant of starcraft, that's why pros fear himRight now he is just a boomer spending his days fishing and building SCVs by the lakeHe has no idea the amount of pressure and expectations people especially foreigners have for himHe has never shown fear or angerBUT WHEN THE GENTLE GIANT WAKES UP ALL THE LIGHTOSIS SHITPOSTERS WILL REGRET IT
>>720813668 Exactly this. The problem isn’t SK Terran as a build-it’s the hands it's in. You lose your first vessels like an idiot, of course you're gonna flounder midgame. People forgot that this style is all about map control and economy denial, not just hoping a bio ball smashes through like it's 2009. Bring back the timings, bring back the split map denial.
NYDUS
WIGGLER OUT
>LIGHT OUTLMAO OVERRATED BARRACKS MY BOY BEST TERRAN>>720814194what, Zerg should always be 1 base ahead or he gets fucked
LIGHT THREW ON PURPOSE TO DENY SNOW THE CHAMPIONSHIPTRUST THE PLAN
god I love Larva
>>720805480
BASED LARVA
LET'S GO LARVA
Barracks will secure a terran victory bros trust the plan
Literally only a single Terran in top 8.Barracks is now truly the sole Terran hope.
>>720814519he is getting farmed by snow again
>>720814519unironically current top1 terran
>>720814305>Bring back the timings, bring back the split map denial.So, bring back FlaSh.What I've noticed in these new and old Terrans are that they do not make opportunities for them to do a timing attack and only thinks in terms of "I need to do this on X Time or else it's no longer viable" rather than "I'll do this and it'll open an opportunity for me to attack"They only become reactive once they don't hit their timings and they have to ""adjust"" when in fact they play so robotically and doesn't even try to harrass or disrupt the enemy Zerg.
Top 8 is:4 protoss3 zergs1 terran
T: BarracksP: Bisu, Best, Snow, MiniZ: Effort, Soma, Larva
Snow vs Light would have been a great finals match with reavers scarabing all over the place
>>720814647>>720814663Terran-favoured maps next season, trust the plan.
thougths?
are they doing bracket draws after this interview?
RUSH BTFO SHARP BTFO LIGHT BTFO SPEED BTFOI can't wait to hear Artosis complain how Terran is too weak again despite how Terran dominated in the past
>we can get Mini vs Larva after they called each other out during group nominationsLETS GO
>>72081475370% chance of Snow victory.25% chance of Effort/soma/Best/Larva victory5% chance of BarrackS/Bisu/Mini victory.SCREENCAP THIS POST
>1 terran in the round of 8terranbros...we need the power of love...
>>720814618the real problem is that terran, despite my hatred for artosis, IS a hard race to play and being reactive and adjusting your play with T is not easy at all. Terran has the strongest units, the strongest spells, the strongest workers but you need to keep them alive. Flash always took care of his mnm all the fucking time, always insta stim against muta, he never ever let a single marine go to waste so he was able to defent against muta while denying the zerg map control.These dumbucks just go...hurrdurr me sc2 player me b teamer, i go valk tank and puuuuuuuush
>>720814798Terran is too strong yet they can't handle 1 wiggler or some dumb elephants
>>720814778Yes. Stick around folks!>>720814881Mini is legit cute when he's not cringing and raging.
>>720814867snow is going to die early to zergif you are a protoss fan and cursed light with lightosis memes you will regret those words
>>720814881That season was hype, man.
>>720811157>Can I play vs AI in this?Yes... and the AI actually kicks your ass if you don't rush the AI.
>>720814798Flash doesn't count, without him Terrans have only won 4 ASLs
>>720814894While that is true, I've already accepted that most terranbros are old and can no longer keep up with the attention and care that's needed to masterfully use Terran.The rise of that timing build that rely on a one-note unit (Valkyrie) started this. They had no plan B once the Valk gets delayed or they got careless in its micro. They just lose afterwards.
>>720814904SK Terran is all about Keep as many marines alive, delay bases, destroy bases, irradiate lurkers/defilers over and over. Zerg WILL run out of gas and Terran can expand safely because zerg can build enough ultras, even if they build some mass marine medic can easily destroy them. SK Terran is still the best build because it's literally unbeatable if it's a normal game and not crazy zerg
ARE YOU GUYS READY TO SEE STARGIRL FONDLE THEM BALLS????????
>>720814867effort mops the floor with snow
>>720815071she looks like an alien
BALL TIME, FAGGOTS
Retard here, is it over?
>no mini vs larvaLAME
What's the rule again for this top 8 again? Players from the same ro16 group can't fight each other or some shit?
BARRACKS VS MINI
why did she put effort back?
come on come on come on soma vs effort pls one of them needs to die
>>720815186>bare shoulders and she's fondling ballsShe knows what she's doing
>Snow vs EffortOOF
>BarrackS vs MiniEASY BARRACKS VICTORY LADSHE'S GOT THISJUST TILT MINI UNTIL HE MAKES A MISTAKE AND BARRACKS WILL CRUISE TO THE END SMOOTHLY
>0 mirrorsthe only thing that matters
NOOOOOOOO SNOW BROS
BISU VS LARVA OH FUCK OH FUCK
Which one of you faggots remember this REAL KOREAN STARCRAFT game?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-AKfOT7gsw&ab_channel=FirstPlaysHD
>>720815305...those full lips...
>>720815314RIP Snow ;_;
Can't wait to see soma beat the shit out of best.
>blatantly fixed matches>oops wrong one I'll put it back
all I see is an easy protoss sweep and mirror PvP until end of tournament :)

>>720815450soma or snow will win
>>720815034No they just refuse to acknowledge valks are hard to micro even for prosBarracks Valk rush we seen this ASL was how it should be played: valks screened by marines on ground and no micro, just fly in and go.
>>720815450all protoss loses in first roundzvz finals
>>720815491you niggas are insane if you think barracks is clearing mini
/ourboy/ BarrackS got this EASY.
>>720815525artosis....
>>720815567I've liked BarrackS since like season 7 or 8, I've wanted him to win just one ASL. Just one.But I'll also accept a Snow victory since Snow absolutely deserves to win.
>>720815567should be a great match at the very least
>>720815491Bisu will wreck Larva
>>720815567Memes aside, Mini is on average better than BarrackS but he's also the architect of his own failure in that he sometimes goes for these weird optimised builds and the occasional cheese that's just super-risky. Real prediction: we'll get some games in the best of 7 where Mini just trounces Barracks with ease, but there'll be at least 2 matches where Mini fucks up and thus BarrackS wins.In any case, I doubt it'll be a one-sided 4-0. I predict a 4-2.
>>720815450>only way Mini vs Larva can happen is in the finalsidk how to feel about this
>>720815783>t-this season for sure!
