can someone tell me what happened to [z-zone]byun the ogn coach ?

Really unimpressive play from Chalrenge. He didn't make any attempt whatsoever to scout for two or three minutes after his initial probe died. He'd have died to anything from all-in zerglings to two-hatch hydralisks, and he wouldn't have seen it coming--just like he didn't see this build coming.

he warped 2 cannons right after his first corsair was out.. lakes attacking timing was just too good.. had he attack 10 seconds later, challenge would've blocked that attack easily with 4 cannons 3 zealots and a dragoon

The earlier you expand PvZ, the harder you have to scout (because you can't pressure due to your low unit count). Chalrenge didn't scout nearly enough, and it probably lost him the game.

i agree with ash. the timing was so good. T1 players seem to be good at timing rushes

there is no reason for him to send another probe out for scouting because lake had like what? 6 speed lings outside .. any scouting probe would be eaten like cakes ,he wouldn't be able to scout so there is no point for him to waste probes like that. remember every single mining worker counts in pro level..

You're boggling my mind here. There is always a reason to send out another probe in PvZ. Lake scouted Chalrenge's expansion. Chalrenge knew this. So the typical response on Lake's part would be to take another expansion. If Chalrenge had sent out a probe or two, he would have seen that Lake had not expanded. This would have told him that Lake was either teching or massing. Armed with that information, he would have turtled up. I'll go out on a limb here and say that that information is slightly more important than the extra 80 minerals those probes would have mined.
Further, Lake's zerglings were on his own ramp, and he didn't get ling speed until shortly before the attack. He was teching too quickly to get it before that point.
Lake won the game--and obviously that's commendable--but Chalrenge played like an amateur.

I see the coach telling oov, he will give him a banana for the ace match if shudder wins.
Btw, doesn't skt1 do this every season? test out every possible 2v2 combo to see which one works best.

But yeah, I wouldn't send Midas. He's too inconsistent these days, and way too naive in his play imho.

Midas > Keke, Bisu, Xellos, Boxer. Oov > Iris.
|
what the hell are they doing?
|
Just look at Etter's argument in the Power Rank: he's been looking weak in his failed attempt to get into OSL, he's out of MSL in the group stages, and his Proleague wins came against mostly unconvincing opponents.
Believe me, I want to see Midas win a starleague because I think it's a shame that he has such good mechanics and yet has such poor nerves. But right now, he's not the most reliable ace for T1, especially compared to Oov who has been a monster recently.
On top of that, there's his performance today as well; he focused far too much on Yarnc and got punished for it.

It has a lot to do with players setting up/putting away their keyboard/mouse and getting everything straightened out; making sure everything's in working order etc.

look at the game 1 of KTF recently with Ra vs that protoss. + Show Spoiler +The other guy just didn't seem to care and went for a totally impossible strat right in ra's face then didn't scout at all for the next 5 minutes before dying to DTs. fucking pathetic Don't get me started on Bisu vs chrh...

is just me or does this look better for chalrenge??

templar archives warping
3 vults out, waiting for dropship + 4th vult
chalrenge going proxy DT
|
hmm i'm not sure canata has any detection at this point
dropship incoming
canata takes his nat in the meantime
|
vult drop did absolutely nothing (DT + goon death though) but canata spotted the DT tech
DT in
|
DT killing quite a few SCVs but turret soon up and acad up too
|
OMG NO!!! CANATA COME ON!!
|
canata is fucking BLIND!
USE YOUR RINE TO KILL THE PROBE SO HE CAN'T DT JUMP THE MINERALS!!!!
|
canata barely defending
looking extremely bad for him at this point
|
|
|
canata is dead
TERRIBLE defense and extreme naivety
|
WOW!! chalrenge!!!!!$!@#$%@# chalrengechalrengechalrengechalrengechalrenge!@!!!!! GJ~!!!
|
caanata is getting annihilated
|
|
canata wtf! he will make a comeback i promise!
EDIT: damn my stream is lagging XD
|
I think this is the worst TvP performance I've seen in a while. Canata is like Midas: he absolutely blows when he's facing non-standard play.
|
SKT's virginity runined. The blame goes on for gorush and canata,
|
|
YES chalrenge!
i have faith in you again
i'm glad i voted OGN 8]

And as much as I am an SKT1 fan they really deserved to lose this one. They put a horrible line-up and it would have sucked to see them win anyway just because the game went to ace. Must be the first time in 2 years or so that I voted against SKT1.

Well I don't precisely recall that game but from what I remember that's mainly because Pusan failed to deal a fatal blow and kept insisting with DTs way too long instead of switching to goons, which would have been crucial.
I'm not saying these players are bad at adapting, just that they're usually looking extremely naive in their play. They pretty much don't see anything non-standard coming, and die if they weren't lucky enough to go for a build which counters it.
Midas' 2v2 game was another good example. Zeus didn't do anything the whole game except harrassing Gorush with a probe. Midas drops 2 DS full of m&m to Yellow while not scouting Zeus at all. Zeus just logically breaks the mineral wall and comes in with about 10 goons, which takes Midas totally off guard even though it was the most obvious thing ever.

Midas' dropship was there to see a little of Zeus was mining that block too It was chased off by goons and corsairs.

To be fair to Canata, Proxy gate in that location is hard to scout when you haven't mined open your base yet. Also, the DT hop was stopped on the bottom side by a vulture snipe but he didn't expect it from the top side also I guess.
You guys are dumb if you say SKT1 T's suck vs nonstandard play. Do you even remember which Team's terrans were uncheeseable? I mean sure, lately Midas died to a number of proxies and Canata is just weaker TvP than the rest, but every other team's terrans die just as easily early game. Casy died in 4 minutes to Sheis, Hery died in 2 minutes to Casy, And Sheis died in 8 minutes to Bisu. Short games happen and sometimes it's not really mistakes as much as superior playing from the other.
Chalrenge didn't mess up a single DT hop and his vulture drop defence was sick. You guys look over that like it's nothing and blame Canata's bad play? Well his opening build already set him back vs proxy dt since the DT timing was ridiculously fast and he lost his initial drop vultures and losing those mines for nothing. Plus the timing was right prior Ebay and Acad completion. Canata had a scenario in his head and he was right on most of his reads, Chalrenge just sped his build up to be insanely fast with such a close proxy. If the DT walked across the map, Canata had that game sealed.
Also the PvZ Chalrenge game for example, I disagree with the 2nd probe scout being so slow. If the Z gets the 2nd expo hatch going, the probe can't scout it, and the choke was already blocked. Not to mention it's not uncommon at all to see 3 hatch in base play on Nemesis. I thought Lake just used a very nicely timed ABC build. Next time I hear some talk about Pros being amateur, ~_~ I might have to drive a brick through somebody's head. Make it gory and cool.

Well, Oov has been called uncheesable, and rightfully so (at least at the time). Boxer no idea, but he rarely ever was the one to be cheesed.
... but Midas or Canata, uncheesable? No way. Those guys are the best in the world when it comes to straightup play, but they do look extremely vulnerable to cheese, and, again, pretty naïve most of the time. To be fair, I'm not totally sure about Canata because I haven't seen that much of him. But when it comes to Midas, everytime I see him lose, I basically keep wondering "what the HELL was he thinking?".
Three random, recent examples: - again, today he basically totally forgot about ZeuS -- I don't see any other possible explanation ; - few days ago, he seemed actually convinced TT would play a straightup PvT ; - ~1 month (?) ago, vs Anytime, he didn't scout at all yet didn't get any detection against the proclaimed mister Dark Templar.
I could find older examples just as easily, like that game vs Savior where the latter basically expo'ed several times at really weird spots. Midas kept scouting the same, empty expo spots over and over, probably thinking Savior only had his nat. Then Savior rolled over him with 4 gas eco.
I'm probably making this a bigger deal than it actually is, but that's something I don't see (or, at least, so rarely) with players like Boxer, Nada or Oov, who tend to plan ahead in a clearly smarter way most of the time.
Oh and by the way don't get me wrong, I'm a T1 fan and I like Midas a lot. That's even probably the reason why I'm so critical.
Casy died in 4 minutes to Sheis, Hery died in 2 minutes to Casy, And Sheis died in 8 minutes to Bisu. Short games happen and sometimes it's not really mistakes as much as superior playing from the other.
Didn't watch those games, so dunno. I don't want to take away from Chalrenge's build and execution which where absolutely flawless. I'm just saying Canata would have died against any kind of DT build today, and even *far* earlier had Chalrenge gone for 1 base DT instead of fast expanding first.
Canata had a scenario in his head and he was right on most of his reads, Chalrenge just sped his build up to be insanely fast with such a close proxy. If the DT walked across the map, Canata had that game sealed.
What if Chalrenge went straight DT then?

Canata vs PuSan on Rush Hour I think, not Midas?
|
is it just me or the small vods all cut off at around 2 minutes. ??
ok nvm, i think it screws up if u dl more than one at a time
|
wow that's really impressive from OGN
|
can anyone recommend some games from today's proleague ? ;]
btw, who is this guy on the last pic, 3rd from left. He reminds me young Boxer xD
|
If Chalrenge went DT first, I don't think the vulture drop would have gone at all. The DT's would arrive and 4 vultures would have been lying around.. completely changes the game.
Zeus crushing Midas wasn't so much him being cheesable as Midas being a bad candidate for 2v2 -_-;; TT vs Midas, I mean, who knows? The game was proxy gate vs no rax CC. That's losing rock paper scissors. ~_~
|
The game vs TT was losing rock paper scissors but his opponent was kind enough to hint at his choice of rock first by his "cheese style". Midas decided to pick scissors anyway. It's surprising that we can predict TT's strategy better than Midas, who plays this game 12 hours a day.
Midas could go so much further if he'd stop shooting himself in the foot doing things like CC first vs. cheesetoss or picking Savior twice.

That's right, but he hadn't layed any mines around his main so he'd have been vulnerable even with 4 vults imho. Defending with spider mines is OK if you know it's coming, but if you don't, it's extremely risky. If DTs get around the CC and the SCVs, it's often too late.

It wasn't even cheese. Just total carelessness, imo. Agreed that he's not the best 2v2er around, though.

More like, knowing your opponent is gonna throw scissors, yet still throw paper. :/

Also dont forget that Chalrenge on this map actually managed to lose to the two worst players in proleague - Hoony & Soo.
|
if soo is one of the worst then what does that make reach, who he beat?
Soo's 3-1, that's gotta be some low quality shit you're smoking.
