wow thats crazyness. every build by july is sexy. doesnt even matter if he scouts or if he doesnt, it will defend against anything.

if stork tried some 1base quick sairs, july already has the 1 or 2 hydra out to counter it with the early den.

if stork tries zel rush with a goon or 2, july has like 10lings 3 hydra plus rediculous drone drill to fend.

thats so epic.

actually there's a rule in place that you can't play random. you have to let kespa know a week in advance in all your matches which race you're going to play. there are some pro gamers who are really good at all 3 races(jaedong being one of them). i think playing random kind of just screws up the quality of the games. basically there's a chance you end up playing your worst race and you won't really have a game plan prepared. it's fun at the amateur level though.

Great that the Korean TV don't show the "Winner"-sign next to the video with the loser anymore, now they only show the "Winner"-sign with video of the winner.

Holy shit that was intense.

[EebstertheGreat]

You're being absurd. Have you not seen pros go +1 speedlots? It's basically THE hot shit off of one or two gas. Claiming that such a popular build is too weak for pros is like saying a nine pool always fails.

In this case, you STILL haven't answered the fact that he had no anti-air whatsoever, and so immediately GGed, whereas if he had built a forge, the cannons would have been up in plenty of time to stop the mutas. He would have been behind, but it wouldn't have been an instant GG.

oh yeah i forgot about that that wasa freakin crazy ass game... on a side note.. i wonder where the map plasma has gone it had some crazy gaems on it

[ModeLTU]

I'm not sure if that attack can be called a 'timing attack' per say.

It was a desperate attempt to force July to bring his mutas back to gain some time just as you told.I just said that it isn't a correct definition of timing attack that's all :P

[iambaubo]

I'm certain, EebstertheGreat, that you've never played one-base +1 attack EVER in PvZ. Because if you have, you'd realize how horribly easy it is for the zerg to kill you.

[iambaubo]

July just finished his lair, hydra den, and spire. What more tech is Stork going to wait on? Do you think July would go two-hatch hive or something!?

For someone who understands the concept of a timing attack, you certainly didn't realize that Stork did attack at the most opportune time.

He was just unlucky that July anticipated an all-in push due to the map.
