Terran players feel entitled to getting free wins vs zerg, so when it doesn't work they get scared and confused.

A lot of the chicks in the audience have nice enough faces, but mid bodies.
Some exception.
Saw some behind the scenes footage as well, where they were talking to some audience members, seem like a decent amount of afreeca streamer e-girls that are 'friends' with some of the bigger ASL players that show up, and some of those work hard in the gym.

In the round of 16 selection ceremony Soulkey was at first torn between choosing Sharp or Barracks as his opponent but went with Barracks because he felt bad for Sharp because he had already been curbstomped by him enough times.
Bet he is seriously regretting that decision because there's zero chance Sharp would have been able to pull the shit Barracks did. It's extra funny that it was Barracks that then went on to choose Effort to be in their group.
Anonymous No.2142154 [Report]
People act like him not seeing the creep was the death blow that did it but it's not like Soulkey tilts and he still lost the second game simply by being outpeformed. Effort is just a much better ZvZer point blank. Even if Soulkey had seen the creep and possibly taken the first game he would very likely still go on to lose the remaining too.

They could solve it easily by making generals illegal again, decreasing the bump limit and possibly lowering the thread count by half, so we only have 5 pages of threads instead of 10.
Should make threads shorter lived, but those alive more active.
Problem with /vst/ now is that too many topics get hijacked by near-dead generals, like the threads on bump support on /vg/ only kept alive by obsessive autists, if it was an active board we could get a shorter lived, but active thread for each series instead.

Merging /vst/ and /vrpg/ could also be an alternative.
Strategy and Rpgs don't really go together, but they're distinct enough from general video games that /vstrpg/ could be a civilized non-slop counterpart to /v/.

watching r.16 group C now
Mini just runs in with some zealots and few templars, he doesn't even micro the templars well, gets off one great storm, otherwise templars just unceremoniously killed and he still rolls JD. What the fuck did I just watch? There was nothing special to it, just some zealots walking in into JDs bases and wrecking. Was there something more to it which I failed to notice?

Mini forced a lot of lings with early zealots and JD doubled down with a ling flood which did literally 0 damage. After that it was Mini's game to lose.

Why didnt he make any sunks? Couple sunks in front of those hydras would make things way easier for him, correct? Or am I missing something?
Also he had entire control group of lings stationed in front of protoss base and yet two separate times he completely missed the zealot moveout wtf?

Mini is too volatile so if Barracks has a chance it is against him. Even so, just because it's PvT Mini is still more likely to take this.

Snow is arguably the best player in the round of 8 but because of his PvZ being nowhere as good as his other matchups and his tendency to choke I'm willing to bet Effort will eliminate him.

Soma is in great shape but then again so is Best, this is the hardest one to call. I'll give it to Soma but could easily go the other way.

If Larva was up against anyone else I'd put my money on him but because Bisu is the best PvZer in the round of 8 and he's been on fire lately it's hard to believe even Larva can get through him.

So from there I expect Effort to beat Mini, Bisu to win against Soma and we would have an Effort vs Bisu finals.

On one hand most sports have a coach giving you encouragement and advising you but it's one individual specifically assigned for it whose job is that. This informal way of getting help makes it all about connections, if you're friendly with top players you have an advantage, if they don't like you you're screwed. Then again the issues with such a small tight knit scene are bigger than that since those relationships essentially define who you're practicing with. That's why outsiders never have the chance to rise to the top, they will never have the luxury to consistently train with and against top level players.

Have you seen snow's win rate against terran? If you don't care for statistics he says it himself it's his best matchup. He can use Reavers in ways virtually no other player could.
Not even top Terran players like Light would be able to take him on at this point. Barracks is a 2nd rate player that won 3 - 4 using builds given to him by Flash against an opponent that was way out of shape and he only did so by literally gambling.

Soma has to win against Best and then Bisu/Larva for Snow to have any chance of losing the finals.

I actually hope Larva gets eliminated so that all these weeks Soma can focus 100% on vs Protoss uninterrupted practice while Snow still has to do some vs Terran training to dispatch Barracks

Zergschizo here. Haven't been in the threads to avoid the cacophony of the Terrannies after the major upset. Suffice to say that:

1. A Zergchad lieutenant will likely take it. Probably Soma, though Larva also looks good so far.
2. Effort, as well as Zero and Jaedong, should be recycled into the spawning pool already. They've done nothing but embarrass themselves as players and drag the Zerg numbers down for the past five years.
3. Fuck Barracks and Terrannies.

Zerg is strong because their 3 base units, ling/hydra/mutalisk, are just all around strong units with little micro, and mutalisk becomes exponentially stronger with good micro.

Terrans and Protoss need to rely on spell casters to win the game, specifically versus Zerg. It's game over if protoss loses their templars with energy or if a vessel dies early (you want to save your vessels and irradiate spam) Zerg is so strong because their basic units that they make every game are just much better than the other races.

Hydralisks have the best unit control / pathfinding AI in the game, it's a pleasure to control them. They have double the health of a marine, you don't need to split them like terrans do.

The Zergling is one of the very few units that has a DPS upgrade without a drawback, AND it's a passive ability that you upgrade once and forget about it. Yeah, stimpack is nice but it costs Health and APM (time management). Zealots do the same DPS at minute 1 and minute 30.

I wonder what pros use AI to get better. It's already possible to have an LLM go through every single game your opponent has played that has been recorded/uploaded/casted and it will tell you "XXX never opens early pool on this map in the past 200 games, you should play greedy."

I know in the chess world some players use AI more than playing each other in person or versus randoms on the internet.

3. "Being good at ZvZ" has never been relevant since the top players have always been T and P, with just TWO exceptions: Savior's MSL episode, and Soulkey's four ASLs.

I don't think Barracks should be so submissive. It's np to be grateful and give credit but he's relying on others too much. Do anons share my sentiment or am I just weirdly autistic about this?

>he's relying on others too much
when he doesn't, he loses every game and gets outplayed like a toddler playing brood war for the first time
even flash said it, barracks is a hard worker but never ever achieved good results in over a decade of playing professionally. That is until flash started giving him his own build orders and he now made ro4

Pros share builds and practice with each other all the time - everyone does it. But Barracks is the only one so vocal and submissive about it.

no, you don't understand. Barracks deliberately got secret build orders from flash, his long time friend. He didn't get the widely available shit from the internet that flash posts, he got the juicy new stuff specifically against mini. This is different from just practicing together and shooting the shit.
Barracks got to ro4 ONLY because of flash's builds. If he played his own builds, he'd get 4-0'd even with mini's terrible form. That's why he's so thankful and apologetic. Because he's not a narcissistic piece of shit.

I don't mind every Terran coming together to come up with builds and timings for Barracks to use, it's actually kind cool, but straight up texting them for advice and assurance in the middle of a series seems kinda off to me. When it's a BO7, I feel like external stuff should be left at the door and they should be locked in for the series. Letting this streamer shit leak into official tournaments isn't a good path to go down, imo.

Yeah I knew somebody would say something like that but there are rules attached to coaches and they're physically present there with the player in a professional capacity. Texting your buddies watching back home isn't comparable and cheapens the whole ethos of a tournament for me.
