WOW. Those moves, starting at 38:40. My jaw actually dropped. Such good punishment against mass SH. One of the casters called it a "nice little move". Little move? He won the game with those 17 stalkers.
it's a "nice little move" because protoss is so easy to play, that everything you do as protoss are little moves, regardless if they're game winning or game losing
Wow Never expected dark is eliminated by less known trap He beat top players in pro league and he finally learn how to overcome fear of playing in front of cro
Go to Trap's liquidpedia page and see for yourself. Trap just rekt Dark so hard I can see who the better player is. Trap is also on a really good win/loss ratio this year much better than Dark's.
STOP CUTTING AWAY FROM THE GAME TO SHOW US THE PLAYER'S FACES. WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR LACK OF EXPRESSIONS IN THE MIDDLE OF A BATTLE. OR EVER. GREAT PLAYERS, GREAT CASTERS. REALLY ANNOYING CAMERA WORK.
this sounds a little crazy but i think dark may have left the drones out of gas on purpose, he was stocking up on minerals in case there was a 2 base all in so he could make lings really quickly. but i agree, perhaps he shouldve put more on gas. at the very least he had a tons of minerals to expand and make drones.
There are basically two kinds of casters: those that focus on the action as it happens and those that analyze and attempt to predict the whole game. A good caster balances the two. When action is happening, stop analyzing and either shut up or narrate the action.
The last game was really unfortunate, after defending 7gate, sentry lockdown in main. He goes for the natural instead of trap's army :((((((((((((((((((((((((((
Many people like to moan on the message board. I suppose I'm moaning. But I'm moaning about the moaners, not about the excellent match. Thanks ESL **for providing this for us for free**.
Wonderful. Moan is a very fitting word for all those dumbshits. It gives the little haters a note of cuteness, which fits well, as they act like that out of immaturity.
I don't play much starcraft but Utralisks seem like complete shit . They can't even beat marines let alone immortals . Poor Zerg doesn't really have late tech .
sorokonojkaboris I can see by now that you don't play much at all... You have to combine Ultra with some other units.. Fongus those marines up and they pretty much screwed.... or a good micro with lings to block them and too done.. its all about the good micro macro game play
***** I agree there was a period of Protoss domination, but it has ended quite some time ago. I meant basically the period of almost a year from now. Take a look at, for example, IEM tournaments alone and their winners: Shenzen (Taeja, tvz final), San Hose (herO, pvp final), Taipei (Life, zvt final) and Toronto (Flash, pvt final). 2 Terrans, 1 Zerg, 1 Protoss. ForGG won Dreamhack winter, Life won WCS 2014 global finals (against MMA). Out of 36 "Premier Tournaments" listed on TeamLiquid for 2014, there were 13 Terran wins, 15 Protoss and 8 Zerg. There is a period of Protoss dominance lasting approximately up the the half of 2014 (when most of those 15 Protoss wins took place), later there is a string of Terran victories (and 6 tvt finals) and recently it has been pretty balanced between all three races. It is pretty clear from the data that the only race that has a small balance problem is Zerg (slightly underpowered and forced to play terrible swarmhost style). The PvP final in Katowice has more to do, imho, with amazing performances from Zest and especially Trap, Dark eliminating Maru (I think Maru would beat any Protoss there) and Innovation having a bad game against Zest, rather than with any special strenght of Protoss as a race. Take account also of how many series Trap won 3:2 while playing absolutely brilliantly against Terran.
andrew1007 Mate, how did you arrive at 9 potential matchups? 3x3, right? Sorry but it does not work that way :) Once you take account of the first three matchups with one of the races, then you need to substract that race. You have 3 +2+1. The proper formula is hence 3! (the factorial of 3) There are 6 potential matchups :)
im happy to see Pvz is just as broken in world series tournaments as it is in diamond leauge... even worse now because they took out the swarm host... so its very one sided now.. Fucking stupid that they put flying locust in HOTS instead of the LOTV beta.... because it totally broke PvZ mid game..
and cannot wait for the ravenger addition.... fucking stupid you can just walk your army into a base and wall yourself in for 10 minutes while you just kill every tech structure... makes the game dumb. because they can do this at 1030 with immortal sentry pushes and you simply DO NOT have a hive tech unit to stomp down that force feild yet..
WOW. Those moves, starting at 38:40. My jaw actually dropped. Such good punishment against mass SH. One of the casters called it a "nice little move". Little move? He won the game with those 17 stalkers.
But they said it was very good and crazy how he was able to get so much...
It was filthy good.
andrew1007 That is Carrol's go to phrase isn't "Nice little play by ___, getting the ___" etc
andrew1007 good call ! That shit was dope
it's a "nice little move" because protoss is so easy to play, that everything you do as protoss are little moves, regardless if they're game winning or game losing
Darn, was looking forward to seeing trap play terran :(
Innovation, BByong, Maru, Life, Dark and Taeja in the same tournament and we get yet another PvP finals? Lol I won't even say it.
True.
+its KP mofo Yea. Its fucking bullshit.
It's ZvP, not ZvT as title suggests.
Woops! My bad. Thanks!
ESL u are a bot or a person?
ESL
You changed the title without changing the description :-)
heime1990 ESL is a whole organization of people. There is likely a department dedicated to Social Media, and that was one of the staff.
I gave you a thumbs down, because your comment sucks and nobody cares. Not even the people who uploaded this, as you can see.
This is so insane to watch in 2024. Pushing with seven sentries? Three bases at 26 minutes?? Dark clean-shaven??? Feels like a whole different game
This is ZVP why is the title ZVT?
I dont play sc2 but this is fun to watch
The expansion coming out later this year will be standalone, meaning it's 1 purchase, ready to go. Consider playing then!
The game is not free to play dude :C
Alex Sullivan/._./ Actually, after the initial purchase, the game IS free to continue playing online.
Ah... yes I played the demo, but i cant buy the game so I only can enjoy how other users play xd
Bish What? so many people say that, you should try it, it is a great game :D
1:12:30 WOW THAT HOLD and the rekt on the sentry by the drones xD
Title of the video is wrong... That is a ZvP, not a ZvT
"Alright Dark we get it, you're pretty good at Starcraft"
Eric that was pretty crazy micro though
Wow
Never expected dark is eliminated by less known trap
He beat top players in pro league and he finally learn how to overcome fear of playing in front of cro
Lesser know? Trap has actually won a premier title unlike Dark.
Sturmbannfuhrer2 what title? and dark is upcoming star. if u followed sc scene in korea general census says dark is better player
Go to Trap's liquidpedia page and see for yourself. Trap just rekt Dark so hard I can see who the better player is. Trap is also on a really good win/loss ratio this year much better than Dark's.
god damn, that last battle in the last game was redonkulous!
Protoss seems really strong
Took about 10 minutes for the casters to realize that the Zerg lost the game after losing the hatcheries and other buildings. What experience :D
Forcefields on ramps are just ridiculous lol
ImaginaryNumb3r ridiculously smart and useful... no different then a terran wall
STOP CUTTING AWAY FROM THE GAME TO SHOW US THE PLAYER'S FACES. WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR LACK OF EXPRESSIONS IN THE MIDDLE OF A BATTLE. OR EVER. GREAT PLAYERS, GREAT CASTERS. REALLY ANNOYING CAMERA WORK.
Word, the camera men suck balls - always have.
Damn, game two was outstanding from both players
why does the description say "Zerg versus Terran"?
I'm rooting for Dark! It's the second Zerg hero for me after Jaedong in BW.
That was exciting
At 43:00 traps storms were beutifull, absolute perfect
Why does it feel like Zerg has to play freaking perfect to pull off wins, and OProtoss just hits some timing and wins the map? =.=
Because it is so.
Because Kimba!
You suck at the game and come playce you petty, pathetic, groundless thoughts in a public place for eveybody to read.
Well played.
+Knight ShaveAlot Because Protoss is overpowered. Those forcefields are cheap, you can't do anything about it really.
Jo Mormont
Yes, but Blizzard knew it very well. They are fixed now in lotv.
16:32 "Um Dara Manakai! " Hold the line!
hi guys, this is wings of liberty or heart of the swarm?
34:49 I sure hope Trap isn't making Swarm Host, or we're all VERY screwed.
(sc1 all over again!!)
I want to get this game but I dont know which one I need to buy because there are alot of different ones in my local gameshop.
Starcraft 2 wings of liberty=actual game. Heart of the swarm and legacy of the void= expansions
I would like to ask. Are this starcraft 2:wings of liberty or heart of swarms? And what the difference between both of those title ??
Swarm; New units
my heart goes to dark..
38:30 sick
the best game of the tournament
this sounds a little crazy but i think dark may have left the drones out of gas on purpose, he was stocking up on minerals in case there was a 2 base all in so he could make lings really quickly. but i agree, perhaps he shouldve put more on gas. at the very least he had a tons of minerals to expand and make drones.
Can someone plz tell me what says if u win or lose
Why protos are sooo OP ? Zerg are weak ;(

The way you speak, is hilarious. :)
Omg in the second match they called Trap, Dark and vice versa sooo many times.... "Trap is making Swarm Hosts"... :P
is trap taeja's brother? he looks just like him from the side angle lol
Darrrrrrk!!!1 You were the chosen one!!! :'(
What was the point of that corruptor concave? to kill 2 colossus a MS and 1-2 tempests? All of which were cloaked?
Why didn't Trap kill the creep more often?
someone told me Dark was better than nerchio. I have yet to see it.
Susie is such a control freak.
One of best Z V P games very nice
You should hire Moonglade! GG
ZvT?

Dark is really a protoss's friend-swipe out all terrens and then feed to protoss=-=
I don't play much starcraft but Utralisks seem like complete shit . They can't even beat marines let alone immortals .
Poor Zerg doesn't really have late tech .

sorokonojkaboris NEVER go just pure Ultralisks, Ultralisks are like Terran's Siege Tanks. NEVER move them out alone
Oracles are pretty strong.
Dark vs. Trap (ZvP)
protoss op it's always pvp in the finals
Except it has been tvt all season. Or Zerg, when Life played.

Yeah, even the SSL finals which are TvT... they're actually PvP right? -.-'

andrew1007 Yes it is. You are counting pvt, tvz and pvz twice. It is the same matchup, the sequence in which you write the races is irrelevant.
This game proves that Terran is OP ;)
i love sc2 :D
God immortals are disgustingly good against ultras. Well played by Trap though!
I am nowhere near the skill of these players but I felt like Dark should have destroyed the pylon asap
Yeah!!! Nice Salty Zerg Tears Kappa
Trap pulled the girls in game 1.
so terrible horrible game
protoss is op just like terran, zerg has to b perfect so easy to play terran and protoss compared to zerg
lol salty
terran has to play perfect against amoving zerg tho
Everyone has to play perfect at the top level, dipshits.
You suck at the game and come playce you petty, pathetic, groundless thoughts in a public place for eveybody to read.
Well played
dark rekt. that macro game on overgrowth was epic.
i sweated for them
大可就是个嚣张仔,输了最好。最喜欢狗哥
