  • SC2 Korean StarCraft 2 League Finals - I'm not even trying avoid spoilers here. Dark just casually humiliates Classic in this unbelievable Zerg vs Protoss series. Classic doesn't play poorly, Dark just doesn't care.

    Jesus Christ. The last several minutes of the final game, Dark had like 80% of his army supply just waiting at home while he toyed around with the Golden Armada using just two hit squads of zerglings...and it was WORKING. Dark is a fucking mad lad.

    • @michaelpark1342
      @michaelpark1342 Před rokem +2

      Ya, that was crazy... Classic's army just seemed way too slow to respond to those hit squads. It's just not agile enough.. When Classic's Armada finally reaches one hit squad, they just burrow in the corner and Classic's force just standing there cleaning up the burrowed lings while another hit squad hits another base.

    • @charlesanderson9185
      @charlesanderson9185 Před rokem +4

      At that point it seemed like Classic just felt defeated. He spent so much time chasing zerglings with no counterattack, no pressure, not even really scouting Dark. Honestly felt like he was waiting to be killed

    in G1, i tought that early carriers were the only carriers that could be efficient against Dark. Any later and they get mind controlled / hooked to death as we have seen so many times. But even that is not enough !
    The early carrier strat seems strong for the ladder. But Dark shrugged it off ! i can't remember the last time i saw a pro game finished by complete destruction of buildings.

  • @MrGeorgeFlorcus
    @MrGeorgeFlorcus Před rokem +5

    If Dark, Hero, Cure, and Classic were archetypical anime characters, Hero is the protagonist who's sly, charismatic, always fighting the good fight. Dark is the villain/anti-hero, not afraid of underhanded tactics and dirty tricks; he is foreign to honor, and deaf to pleas for mercy. Cure is the protagonist's best friend, who has a secondary rivalry with the main antagonist, and is usually on the losing end, but occasionally gets the better of the villain in his own right. Then there's Classic, who's like the other friend, whose main role in the story to occasionally remind everybody why it is they call Dark, "The Final Boss".

    I love this .. I remember when EVERY good player was Korean and Protoss at the same time (ok sometimes Terran - Maru). And I always had heart for foreign Zergs like Scarlett. This month I get back to watch everything and zerg players dominated the scene .. we have Serral, Dark, Reynor, Scarlett, what a lovely time for zerg fans 😅
    I think that the zerg is hardest to pull off right to manage properly so it's basically harder/more training for zerg players 😅 .. that shows on Reynor playing Toss so good

    I feel like there's a lot of psychological pressure affecting this game.
    55:00 THIS is what im talking about!! I havent played SC2 in years but im sitting here, a bronze level player, wondering "huh why isnt anyone in pro games using microbial cloud, doesnt that block ranged damage or something? wasnt it in SC1 too?". AND FINALLY 1 single guy uses it, in all of the pro games i've ever seen.
    I think Dark may be my new favorite zerg. I think he IS a zerg irl, because he sure thinks like one, with the nydus / creep / spore / spine push.

He could of protected 3rd another way but he had like no tec, so up the ramp he goes, he should of abadon 3rd and made a 4th sowere else and try to rebuild the tec tree. On third game he should of made 2 cyber or 3 in different places. Think of it as rushing the att,armor. and shield.

    >it's not even your main base anymore
    Yes, it is not: it's a staging area that treatens 2 bases. So while trying to clear it by storming through a very narrow choke wasn't the best call, removing that foothold before moving across the map imo was a viable decision. I bet it's not beyond dark to spread scouting lings through the map the moment that he stops seeing the main protoss army and just drop the hammer the moment he spots the push half of the map away from his bases.

    Well, if you have a fleet of carriers in the earliest timing as possible, but you don’t wall off well and you are not taking advantage of the fleet … then yeah. Especially, you have a bank more than enough to the wall off and you still don’t wall off. Honestly, all you have are air units. The wall won’t block off your units, and a probe doesn’t need to stay there to construct the wall like SUV or drone. The fleet just stayed idle for so long waiting for the Zerg to build the counter. Also bad micro, storming your own units, didn’t focus on taking out Zerg’s anti-air first…
