HOW CAN YOU SLEEP WHEN THERE'S A BROOD WAR OUT THERE TO BE FOUGHT

don't want to close my eyes
i don't want to fall asleep
cause i'd miss you starcraft
And I don't want to miss a match

Is there a match selection thing for Ro16 after this or are positions predetermined based on group and placement?

Aw shityesh. I knew there qas a reason to stay up. Hope ssak is ready for a hot donging

>>376400516
I'm worried about Jaedong actually. Last is gonna 2-0 ez so JD needs to win both the other games to secure that 2-1 spot. I miss when his ZvZ was JvZ.

holy shit people still play starcraft

>>376400454
I don't think they had one last ro8 from memory. But who knows. there aren't any seeded players so I guess there's nobody to pick first.

>>376400574
Hero's a solid Z but I think Jaedong should still be able to take him if it comes to a ZvZ. He's not who he used to be but his muta micro is still damn good.

goddamn I forgot to watch group C. were the games good?

He seems so awkward as fuck in interviews, and I watched a stream where he went for a jog at 4am and sat in an empty McDonalds for half an hour and didn't buy anything

DONG v SAK

>>376400979
All the best players are probably somewhere on the spectrum. They used to play like 16 hours a day every day back in the team houses, after all.

>endgame zerg

>>376401018
Bisu, maybe. Flash seems fairly normal and Stork seems like a guy who'd be cool to have a beer with.

And Nal_Ra seems like a fun salaryman dad these days.

This is the first time in a while i've even seen a valkerie

>>376401325
theyve been popping up recently in tvt as well

>>376401408
>>376401325

Are we going to see more MnM transition into VnV? This seems like a good comp vs. midgame zerg.

>>376401908

Get comfy, faggot

fucking hell, Valkyries destroy mutas. I've never really seen them used in competitive play like that before.

korea was a mistake

>>376401908
One, quite a good one though. More tvz coming up.

>>376401893
someone made a scout to clear overlords on outsider recently

>>376401908
Just the first match, but NEW STRATS happened and it was fantastic

>>376401956
They've been showing up on ASL. But I haven't seen them massed like that. It was just 1 or 2 the last few season.

>>376401893
>scout

it'll be a cold day in hell and a queen is more likely

>>376401956
That's because until like 2 weeks ago they were bugged, and if too many shit was on schreen ( like say, a swarm of muta) then sprite would start disappearing. Valkyrie missiles were the first in line to disappear, so valkyrie would end up not firing if there was a shitload happening (which was ironic since it's supposed to be their niche)

The bug was patched a few weeks ago, so we might see them for now, especially since Zergs don,t use Lurker that much currently

>>376401983

They were making a comeback before the sprite patch though. They were used succesfully in the last ASL as well.

>>376402675
maybe he just got nervous and choked

>>376402687
Probably.
Valks to supply block Zerg isn't a new strategy anyway,
It just usually wasn't done because of the sprite limit shit.

>>376402551
Wasn't Sak supposed to be the gimmick player?

>>376402834
Valks were always sorta good, but niche
also >>376402870 this basically

>>376402796
That commercial made me mute the tab during commercials this ASL. Korean is such a fucking ugly language, not even girls trying to sound cute can save it.

>>376402728
can you not read the op?

>>376402747
To be fair, that was a fun rush to watch. 9/10 of them are just boring

Now that valks aren't broken, will TvZ be free wins?

>>376402972
I am sure zerg will adapt somehow.
I wonder if devourers will ever see the light of day

>>376402972

weren't they already lol? valkyers are basically GoodCorsairs

>>376402972
Well, if the zerg manages to not let the valks mass up to 5-6 they can keep them under wraps with scourge. But if Valks become a new dominant unit for TvZ, maybe.

inb4 +50 minutes tvt

>>376402972
You lose enough Valks you die, they are a huge investment.

>>376402972
Valkyries are really expensive and have a long build time though
so if the Zerg can keep the count early on, he's good to go

fantasy build/fake mech with valkyries was literally the standard play around 08/09

>tfw Valkyries initially were intended to had Afterburners for temporary ultra speed boost
>it was scrapped, because demmed to cheesy

>>376402870
I'm pretty sure it wasn't done much people it didn't work very well. valks take a long time to build and are really only effective when you have 3+. less than that and they can get fucked by scourge or even enough mutas.

Zerg and Protoss matches are the most fun to watch, prove me wrong.

>>376402972
They are basically stupidly risky still. They work when the opponent is losing but in a tight fight where the zerg can afford to counter them theyll be a huge resource waste for the terran. Thats basically what late game zerg is trying to do too, draining the terrans resources with more cost effective units. They cant beat terran units per unit but per cost a mass of zergings is much more effective than gas wasteful tanks.

Thats the only change with the latest patch, everything else is standard


Basically
TVT is Mech
TvZ is Either Muta or Lurker for Zerg, MM or Mech for terran
TvP is standard Dragoon+Storm with maybe a carrier strat if the map allows
PvP is Standard + reaver drops. We had a dark archon game 2 days ago, rare sight
PvZ Is same old as it ever was
ZvZ is Tag at the leper colony

man

JAEDONG, NO


Fucking hell. Jaedong deserved to win that. If Last had gone 5rax he would have won at the start, but I think Jaedong played better in that map overall. I know Last is probably a better player but that wasn't his best.

it's kinda silly that you win by waiting for the gas to run out. why would you even want to colonise that rock if all the resources are used up?

>>376407019

spider mines kept him in. As soon as he was able to redo his tank spine, with enough goliath to discourage drop he had it.

Frankly, i think Jaedong could have won with better defiler play. He lost a large amount and the dark swarm felt often too late to be truly significant

What's the appeal of seeing Dong Fong vs Nip Nong over and over again? They are all rook same anyway.

>five whole matches of TvT between the two best macro terrans in the world


I'd better take a few days off for that one

i am kinda new to BW, why is everyone freaking out about these brackets?

>>376407696
It cannot be contained, the Pig Lord was destined to ascend

I like Shine though, he will be missed

Someone tell me how will the next matches gonna play!

>>376407791
the 2 weakest players got matched together
the 2 best players got matched together

Mong vs Bisu in the Ro4 will literally look like an NTR hentai setup

>>376407791
There's 3 AMAZING players, 2 really good players, and 3 literally who's.

2 of the 3 AMAZING players are playing each other in the first round.

The other AMAZING player is playing a really good player.

Two literally whos are playing each other, which guarantees a literal who in the semi-finals.

Best terran got to chose quarter final matchup because he won last tournament, placed himself in literally babby tier and grouped all the best together to get them out early. Now he get's matched against the second best terran. Hopefully he get's booted out in the first match.

>>376407791
Shine, Mong and SSak are surprise in top 8, most of them are top 32 , MAYBE top 16 if you are generous.

That all 3 reached top 8 is impressive. Then, with the schedule they just got 1 of Shine or Mong WILL go to top 4, and the top 4 finisher are automatically seeded into top 16 next round.


Basically Mong or Shine lucked out BIG time on the bracket

sSak is a barely functioning alcoholic who spends more time drinking on stream and flirting with female streamers

Mong legitimately looks like a anime pervert, he has a bowl cut and always has shadowed eyes. He is the physical manifestation of a pig.

Shine is the fucking observer for the tournament he's playing in. Nobody expected him to qualify, let alone get to the ro8, he literally takes the day off work to play in the tournament. He also talked shit for like 30 mins of the ro16 selection ceremony even though he had nothing to stand on at all

Yeah, last week everyone was calling Ssak a loser who was going to cheese to try and stay in.

Instead he outplayed Jaedong and Last just as the match was entering lategame

>>376407360
I think he needed to keep his mutas alive instead of throwing them away to kill goliaths in the top left base. the game came down to last trading vultures for all of jaedong's good shit with no way to counter them.

We need Blue Storm 1.2 back in the map pool. Balanced in ZvP and TvP with a very slight Zerg advantage in TvZ, which is just what the scene needs at the moment

I might actually watch this

>>376409175
He basically shitposted flash to be on his team, since he knew that Flash would pick the weakest player to make his own life easier.

Basically, getting into flash group meant that you had a good chance at finishing 2nd.

There were a few that understood it

>>376409435

I missed a lot of the pre-pick banter, I have to listen to it now

>>376409175
>>376409435

It's like a cameraman getting down and running onto the pitch to play football essentially

Shine should be allowed to be the observer for his own matches

>We see here that my opponent is doing X and attacking at Z, but I have cleverly placed a trap for him at Y that will counter it perfectly.

>You can see the drop coming in to my base, but I'm moving scourge there right now to intercept it, and...boom, it's gone.

>The opposing player is making a quick tech switch hoping to catch me off guard, but as you can see I'm already anticipating it and building the perfect counter composition

I would like to remind you all that sSak deliberately created an insane group of death in the hopes he would be rescued, and then got out of it in first place. The man has balls of steel. He deserves at least 4th place.

>>376410012
The fact that he decided to play solid instead of cheese has won some serious respect from me. Standing toe to toe with Jaedong and actually winning no less.

How could anyone be disappointed about these matches. You have to watch the VODs.

>>376410316
The last match was really good even though wrong player won, the rest were all over in 10min~

>>376410478
Dude what? 1st was fine, 4th was quite long for a zvz

Fuck, I forgot how intense BW high level play was. What a beautiful game. You just know that each unit movement was done by hand to optimize combat.

>>376410478
First match was really good too imo

Loved those valkyries

>braaaaaap on turret

For over a decade, there has been a Terran conspiracy.

Mapmakers make sure that no Terran-unfavored map survives in the map pool unless there's an abundance of T at the top of their game at the moment.

The reason is ratings. Z > P isn't always true but is usual in the meta. If P > T and Z = T due to unfavorable T maps, it creates the advertisers and tournaments' worst nightmare:

The ZvZ grand finals.

Terran dominance springs from advertisers and tournaments' desire to prevent ZvZ finals, it's that simple. The mapmaker illuminati has gotten away with it and will keep getting away with it.

Now that I've shared this horrible truth, the Korean map-mafia is going to visit my apartment in my sleep. They're going to close my windows and leave a fan on in my room. Don't forget, anons.

I'm using that one from now on

I can't use "knife fight on rollerblades to describe ZvZ since Rapid copied me to describe it.

"I'm not joking. I used it in a teamliquid SSL thread and the next week he stole it word for word to sum up ZvZ. When I google it it links back to that thread, nowhere else. He stole my damn metaphor and I was mad as fuck
