[2020 GSL S2] Ro.24 Group B Match3 Dark vs Stats

[@NinjaBoy606]

Wow all these games have been amazing, some of the best PvZs I’ve seen in a while

[@geburah8319]

Agreed. Game 1 is an insane macro game with excellent late game unit control from both sides. Game 2 is a map specific oddly effective rush of sorts versus great adaptive defense. Game 3 is a weird metagaming build order win with a super underrated upgrade. Best PvZ series in a long time.

[@superjoule6277]

SC2 is in a good state atm, giving us games like these. I hope we get a protoss winner honestly, it's been too long since a protoss held up a championship.

[@Erickzy]

after so many years and dark comes up again with something new

[@petercriscuola]

What was new?

[@HenglishShogun]

Astrea made it to the gsl! Great job bro, that long journey finally paid off

[@JoeZsk8r]

game2 : Greatest Defence of all time BY STATs

Shield of Aïur :)

[@schach6666]

Great games, great casters, great show. Thank you for the quick upload.

[@samueljcarlson]

@afreecatv Thank you for changing the titles to "Winner's/Loser's/Final Match" with the generic thumbnails!!! It was so hard last season not to see spoilers as I watched each group. I had to cover my screen with my hand and fumble around for the right match number. Much better!

[@samueljcarlson]

Oh no, they rolled back the change and added their names now! :'(

[@ragemydream]

wow game2 - amazing by stats

[@JohanEQUIXOR]

No one except Stats could have done this :)

[@gregspeers1215]

Game 2 was sooooo sick!

[@fatbasterd5195]

2023 update: Still the best map ever played...

[@StevenCasteelYT]

Agreed on that first song. Super solid.

Did you find it?

[@Meow110]

OMG Dark! Loses tons of workers, loses all of his broods, rolls over the best protoss in the world anyway with mass roach...

[@jonielshuke4054]

because zerg is and continues to be OVERPOWERED. PvZ is a joke, and this game is a prime example of this. As you said, mass roach vs the best protoss player in the world...and wins with minimal effort. When will these folk realize Zerg is OP ?

[@jmcleay]

@@jonielshuke4054 Dark wins with roaches not through the roaches themselves, but through his superior tactics and macro that powers his units.

[@jeffryy4050]

@@jonielshuke4054 "Just make roaches and win..." immortal: am i a joke to u?

[@jaeheemin6193]

@@jonielshuke4054 well, considering a few of the mpst recent patches, Zerg had infested terran removed, Queen range nerfed, viper nerfed, baneling nerfed, and creep nerfed. When will other races stop bitching?

[@Matthew-uv6gl]

He had more resources, Stats only had a couple immortals. He rebuilt roach/ravager which counters stalker/templar. This is basics. Do you even play this game, or just randomly whine at things? I hope you posted this before watching game 2, because it is your exact same whine but reversed. Stats backed into 1 base with nothing left, then just makes a handful of adepts and warp prism and rolls over Z. I guess that makes P OVERPOWERED by winning with minimal effort.

[@bulletformyqwaz]

Game 2 was a reaction from Dark due to Stats blocking the natural and dark going pool first. I don't think it was the plan for the map. Just sized the moment. Dark at his best. Too bad it did not work out.

[@tharrock337]

my gawd this match is on fire, blow for blow I am loving it.

[@cir09uevhe2]

Damn...2nd game is great. 3rd is the best. Dark just spent 2 new strats. SC2 still surprises.

[@QuantumConcordia]

can anyone tell me the song they play during the interviews?

[@JoshT4life]

should have built cannons for burrow roaches. 2nd game was badass though

[@InkySquid17]

Props to the observer in game 2. You guys don't get enough recognition. Good job, sir.

[@chingompiew1]

Stats face during game2, he was enjoying the challenge!

[@rylandwarren9928]

What's the song at the end of game three that starts to play for the winner?

[@elPepe-bm7mj]

[@MsLastPagan]

Wut a band play on 24:20 ?

[@RafailoSagaraSempai]

What's up with the dancing corruptor at 11:48?

[@Avelanche]

Anybody find the opening song? Tried ACR cloud, Shazam and Soundhound; all nothing.

[@laytonmiller5865]

As a terran player, it looks to me like protoss is disadvantaged vs zerg, am I wrong there?

[@counterhit121]

Wow what a sick second game

[@nightshadowninja3053]

Game 1: Roach goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Game 2: Adept goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[@_rl31_]

What's the song of this first match? So nice

[@Avelanche]

did you find it?

[@juanversion3922]

I am stats fan now...after he defeated cure too and rogue

[@Something-tz2vw]

Sorry, but Stats is the man 👍🏻👍🏻

[@sjoerdglaser2794]

Game 1: Dark was so much stronger than stats, he threw away all his brudelords and still easily won with roaches.

[@codyheiner3636]

Sick play from Dark!

[@istvan2780]

amazing games

[@Summersovergrowup]

1:52 screw the match, lets talk about the sick game of Caster Chicken that was goin on there. A full minute they held out and Artosis managed to pull out the W in the end. Nice try Tasteless, maybe next time.

[@carllazarraga2858]

Lol wth

You never saw borrow roachs? Watch some Serral games.

Ahum... As for game 3 beeing new and revolutionary.... This was the meta for all of WoL.

[@codyheiner3636]

Lmao, yeah glaive adepts were the meta for all of WoL. Think about how stupid that sounds.

[@dancharleton]

@@codyheiner3636 burrowed roaches were the meta

[@goodguycwyzz4768]

Must be nice to be Zerg. Just make a million drone while queen defends everything and then attack move with their unlimited roach / ravagers

[@Cannonbo]

don't speculate. try it. and count the games where you die because you only have drones

[@squilliamfreakyson]

Stats is trash and so are all protoss players. Zergchads unite

how the hell did Stats win game 2, I felt like Dark felt bad for him so he let him win

Are you sure Dark would do that even tho qualification is on the line ?

[@Renjico00]

@@vindico8231 did u even watch the match?

[@marcoscuaritegonzales1305]

i think dark has no compassion since 2016.....

[@vindico8231]

@Edward Yang Yeah, I did watched it but it doesn't make sense for Dark to just forfeit the game just like that in a tournament.

[@marcoscuaritegonzales1305]

yes and actually i think stats was just able to survive
