Fantasy was sending a message. "I don't care if you know what my opening build is going to be. I'm gonna run you over anyways!" Early refinery builds FTW?
Is there any way Calm could have dropped hydras on the tanks? I don't feel like the goliath count was high enough at some points to prevent this from being effective.
Why didn't calm move command the hydras into attack range of the tanks and snipe them instead of going head to head with the vultures and goliaths letting the tanks get of their pot shots. Also, I'm surprised he didn't add some lings into the mix when he started seeing mines. I think he coulda taken it that way.
GO FANTASY OSL CHAMPION 2011 he really deserves it, stork better run and hide. hopefully everyone now sees that fantasy is a level and a half above calm and calm was lucky to even make it this far, he didn't even deserve to beat mind let alone win the 2 games he won in this series.
Fantasy deserves to win this OSL because every single game you see him in, he's entertaining to watch. I've never seen a booring Fantasy game, and that's part of what makes him great, and part of what makes him stumble at the last hurdle... but not this year! GO GO FANTASY!
Sigh... too bad that the most inventive strategies are the ones that won't work out against the standard 1000x proofed in time strategies everybody knows.
Though, the fact that some player do try out some these strategies on tv must mean that he had some success during the training. :-/
This is the kind of semifinals I was waiting for! Great play by both and they are top top top! Still I hope Stork shows who's the better player out of this group. Go Stork!!!! :D
@jetsamjetsam People should stop being so interested in how other men & women are supposed to look. If he chooses to be metrosexual it's nobody's business but his.
The climax to this series had the entire female part of the audience running out of the studio screaming and grabbing their crotches in spontaneous orgasms. Reliable sources tell me they all stayed in bed the full next day...
@Alvar0zzki hahahaha man! that would be sick!!!!! but I wouldnt know who to root for! I like stork more probably but ...after that dancing BC....its hard not to root for fantasy!!! EPIC EPIC EPIC!!
Aha, I'm not entirely sure. I read someone's comment earlier about Calm wearing eyeliner, but I didn't think anything of it. Then I noticed it was dark under Calm's eyes in the beginning of this video, as if eyeliner started to run. It kind of made sense to me because Calm had been sweating a lot.
Either that or he has long bottom eyelashes. O.o Donno
epic final fight, I think the d-matrixes saved Fantasy here, great series overall with my favorite player winning, thank you very much Nuke and Starcraft BW
WHY didn't Calm incorporate lings with his attack at 13:30 ?
How to beat mech: muta - hydra - ling.
Mutas attacking first - goliaths only attacking them, not shooting the lings.
Ground attacking after that - tanks waste shots on lings, splashing your own units (the goliaths already aquired the mutas as targets.) Hydras get a couple more shots off, as nothing is attacking them.
@japphan i feel u also on the lings but that wasnt really my concern, at the last battle using queens do whatever, should brought defilers for that fight also or instead
I'd rather use ensnare on both groups of goliaths and tanks with some zerglings to absorb damage - broodlings require too much micro to avoid killing queens.
One of the best matches ever!! Awesome set 5. I really hope Fantasy takes the Gold. Hes long over due. Amazing player, been around for a very long time. He deserves it!
@AnalogSC Flash and Jaedong are the 2 BW greatest player ever...a game between those 2 is always classic, no other game can be better than that game....
