effort is such a refreshing zerg player He always makes such smart tactical decisions, like not hold position lurkers to waste a scan out of JyJ or going to Hive tech with Action because he was never gonna win the muta war. Just consistently smart plays throughout ASL Hope to see more of him!

[@thirion1850]

Eff0rt is so good, damn. I wasn't around for his era, but watching him come back and just start *brawling* is very exciting. As for the dub, while I prefer subs personally, if dub its the way to go, please make the background volume a bit quieter. Hearing two voices compete makes it difficult to discern things.

[@ItBlobs]

Something sounds off with Tasteless' mic, at least as of the first few minutes. Hope it's not like this for the whole video.

[@jerrytealeaf]

Let’s go Effort! All the way to the championship!!

[@danvsbronies]

Calm is doing the unthinkable and making me root for Zerg

[@NP-gb5su]

Here’s something Tastosis didnt know at the time of making the video: The fact that Effort won vs JyJ is much more interesting if you’ve watched the group nominations, where JyJ used his first seed privilege to actually swap Mini out in order to bring Effort to group A!

[@aml7758]

Calm is an absolute beast. With a little better control and luck, he can win ASL

woooooooooow , getting to watch zvz hit puberty in real time 22 years after the game went pro , so insanely mind blowing dude im getting to experience an authentic brood war esport history development just like in the old days.........

[@moominfin]

I definitely prefer subs. If I wanted to see the games as soon as possible, I'd just watch them on another channel. I think the advantage these VODs have is not just the casting by Tastosis and being on the official channel, but being able to have higher production values with sub for all the segments that let us get to know the players a lot better. I loved watching the group selection with subs but it's not that enjoyable with dubs.

[@HasekuraIsuna]

Group selection badly needs subs : (

[@JJEMTT]

What's the metal song at the final victory 2:40:15 someone? That zoom out of the big screen with the metal music playing and the lighting was epic, ASL production still got it.

[@RampenguNation]

Watching Sk Terran win post dark swarm is always a crazy good game.

[@detrockcity3]

Amazing final game.

[@IanFanselow]

I appreciate saying the reason for the dubs over the subs. I see the desire to get these out quickly and I know a lot of people care about that a lot. For me, at least, I would still prefer the subs even if it results in more of a delay. I used to love watching the group selection but I ended up just skipping this one. While it is necessary for Artosis and Tasteless to not watch the ASL live so they can cast as though it was real time, perhaps the translator could start with the real time video and start preparing the script before the VOD gets sent over to Tastosis, if that isn't what you are doing already. That could atleast slightly decrease the downtime. Either way, I would prefer the subs. Anyway, great work and It is great to hear that our feedback is being considered.

[@GamerayVideos]

ZERG Renaissance!!! LET'S GOOOOOOO!!!

[@imrenemet1184]

At 1:03:40 1 ling got in and JyJ JUST misses on his screen. Then that 1 ling made a massacre in the scv line, while they fought at effort's nat. Amazing games!

[@rraa2699]

How did you see what ling did?

[@avos5]

​@@rraa2699check the minimap at the beginning of the engagement youll see a green box and the green dot of the ling running around, green box checks on the ling a couple times. Purple box only stays on the engagement until the fight ends, he moves his screen back to his main and realizes how many scvs have died and ggs Maybe jyj wasnt quite right about the game state, but you can see his mineral line didnt have nearly as much movement anymore and the ling was still alive. I think we'd all gg in his shoes

On the other hand, Calm now also played in the second longest game of this season; against JyJ on La Campanella 27:21. - effOrt right now sits on a 5-1 record this season, only loss to fellow Zerg Action. Calm is unfortunately out with his 4-4, but JyJ still in with his 3-2. - I've start to track map bans. Right now I will only be doing the raw numbers, but it could be branched out to which races bans which maps, and maybe even which races bans what maps in what match-up. But we need rather much data for that to be interesting, so maybe in the future.

do people actually care 'when' this comes out? I think most people don't follow korean casts and schedules, so for me ASL comes when your videos come. Who cares if they're 'late', late for what?

[@goomshill]

JyJ in match 1 would have won on the spot with the 8rax IF you could target bunker fire. The sunken stops rebuilding a bunker on the spot, the lings/drones can't stop it when the marines just go back in the backup bunker, which they can't break without a sunken. If he could just focus the sunken he'd keep pushing through. Its not RNG due to target acquisition priority algorithms but it sure feels like its out of the player's control

Omg that burrow… I really hope they can use that regularly to shake up ZvZ. When u have multiple bases it makes even more sense tho. 1 base it seems like a stall tactic like lifting buildings as Terran. If u burrow u have to hit his drones with your muties, do damage, fly back and kill the muties camping your drones (which is super unlikely). Otherwise, 1 base you’re dead and just stalling. But a 2 base Zerg with burrow makes some sense on paper.
