That second game was epic. Reynor was flooding him for several minutes. The third of Oliveira never had more than 15-20 seconds of peace and yet he almost won the game.

Man. I'm so jealous.

5切雷諾 😂 it means something like the boardcast stream switch the screen 5 times to Reynor to see his emotion/meme but man Reynor even you don't wanna lose become salty do not wanna give up but you still will lose. Damn so many legendary classic meme this ESL

wrrr

@@fluffydohunuts8997 wrr

From Oliveira's own review on game 4, he just knew he can beat raynor if he just keep trading with him until late game, his practice with Serral paid off

@@linkhe5939 Do you have the link to the video of his review? I'd be interest to see a pro gamer reviewing their own match and what they were thinking during the match.

@@skychaos87 Yeah me too

He pulled off Maru basically

@@Safar_Galimzyanov there are reddit threads with translations and links to his stream

Could be cheating... I really hope not. China don't have a good history when it comes to cheating.

Oliveira said he practiced many times with Serral on 4th game's map, once it reaches that mid-late stage he would just won. The secret is to stop making marine and start to make high tech units such as tank/hellion/ghost/liberator, try to split map 50/50 and make defensive trades, it would always work out in favor of terran side. Zerg economy will deplete around 30 mins, and he could just push out with thor and other units, while using 2 nukes on top or bottom to force zerg give up defence location, and zerg eventually will make a mistake to cost the game. I think he also mentioned that reynor's late game doesn't match serral's level so he had a lot confidence to play it slow

@@kishibenoa3346 If you rewatch all the games trying to spot potential cheating, you'll notice like I have on several occasions: Oliveria blindly moving his units in position to perfectly intercept incoming enemy. This is not proof obviously, as there could be multiple factors like standard play to expect certain timing attacks, etc. The most suspicious is that such an underdog suddenly played the best SC we've ever seen, taking out one top contender after another. Seems too perfect. To reiterate, I hope I'm wrong. And if Oliveria continues to play at this level, then he is legit.

@@blue-phoenix115 that’s just top level gameplay. They scout in the most random ways and predict where the players stuff is because a single mistake will cost them the game. I mean think of all the pro games with proxy hatcheries. If the opponent doesn’t spot it quickly they kinda just lose, so the pros are way better at predicting literally everything

@@bremjo7929 You're probably right.

wrr

That's Zombiegrub. And yeah she's great, really brings a lot of zeal to her casting.

@@eliasalias7851 Indeed, she should have done the finals too!

If you think yelling word salad is great casting and going off on tangents that have no essence. She’d be better off doing horse races.

@@avo616 That's called passion.

@@avo616 tastosis fit your description far better than zombiegrub and were beloved for years. I like to think zombiegrub does a better job of staying on track than they ever did.

Agreed. She knows what’s going on in the game and is quick to follow the pace

Casting was on point

Casting was good, the zoom ins on the fights were annoying

@@jeffnelson4873 not her fault though

I too recall when she was a bit awkward on the cast. She's a freaking pro now, a pleasure to listen!

Cabal in shambles

I think you were hype like crazy 😂 man I am sad that I wasn't watch the stream this time.

@@Supersmallpig it was my first time ever watching live Irl and after 13 years of playing and following the scene it was an absolute blast :) Had 4 friends with me as well which only added to the expierence

@@ElAndoro I'm jealous! I watched the semis and the grand finals live, but no friends to watch with -_-

He used to be called Time

wrr

There was a point in the cast in game 2 where ZG was doing a play by play but she was doing it like an overhyped fan talking to FD and I loved it. She was even calling FD Ravi instead of his ID.

@@maliniak2 She's emotionally elevating intense and decisive moments in the game, and in these moments there are multiple different key actions occurring in a span of a couple of seconds. These are two competitors are very good players with a lot on the line. You also have commentators who don't commentate quickly and accurately but still are great to listen to during similar moments. To each their own, but calling it very stupid is incredibly inaccurate.

@@carlmarl6531 at least half of her words are unnecessary... She remind me some aunty at barbecue after two beers

@@maliniak2 lmao ok 🤦‍♂

hhh

based

she got me hyped at peak points ha

its insane how overhyped reynor always is

Oliveira is Time, he just changed his name recently, so Zombiegrub sometimes calls him that.

He name himself after Brazilian MMA fighter Charles Oliveira.

he is from pequim

ZombieGrub and Feardragon

With the latest patch + map pool, the games became quicker, more action packed. Haven't seen all games at IEM, but can't recall something stupidly long. Even the 20-30 minute games were always entertaining
