PROXY NEXUS IN ENEMY BASE! 

love how you can hear them make fun of bUNNy's name right at the start. these guys are the best when casting. its like talking with your best buddy about whats happening.

this comment didnt age well :

I checked GSL on Twitch, always watched it there, but the latest broadcast is from 2019. Where do you watch it now?

this is what we call Florencio strat - and it is already out of fashion :P He now has better strats

@@ArdZolox I've noticed that also. I'm not sure where replays are available currently, my guess is that they want to wait for the tournament to be finished before they upload them. I'd expect they'll be on Twitch sooner or later, but I'm new to GSL so I don't know when.

@@cugamer8862 Its no longer on Twitch, now the stream is on RU-vid on the AfreecaTv channel!

The nexus let him deny the natural

also recalls

@@lolmanmagee2785 not before using the first probe to injure some scvs so that the 2 recalled adepts will be able to one shot those scvs... he truly maximized that attack to its fullest potential making bunny think he denied it

MARZOSIRUS dts would have won that game without the nexus...so he’s just crazy

T Y I disagree. If he didn’t do the nexus thing, bunny probably would’ve found out or would’ve put pressure on him to not allow dts.

u havn't see Florencio Files vids xd

@@Tomoyo0827 That nexus delayed Terran's natural and forced him to train bunch of marines and tanks. Thats why it worked.

@@danielc.freteval5685 Florencio is turbowood league though.

Game updates/patches actually enable different strategies to shine

for many of the strategies, we have sOs to thank

HAS'nt

SC2 AIs r still inspiring

Quite the opposite: there are more crazy strats now than ever.

Gabriel Vieira :)

It's nice to see that our mermaid's strats have hit the big time

hahahaha

hahahaha!

I was on a drunk sOs spree and now i remember and im sad

sos must be a fan of flo

The proxy nexus was pioneered years ago by the greatest sewer mermaid of all, Florencio

@@selwrynn6702 but to pull that off at a stage like this is just incredible...

Selwrynn it's one thing to pioneer crazy stuff like this in diamond/masters. It's quite another to actually pull it off in the pro scene like this.

Despite the fact that what he said was true, SoS was clearly one-shotting those SCVs anyway, so he was confused. Clearly SoS had tapped those SCVs with a probe or something earlier. SoS is amazing!

nightbonus Ye

Victor0326 indeed

no such thing as firsx or not

$o$ has been doing this for a loooong time. He won 2 WCS Global Finals by playing like this. If anything, Florencio was probably inspired by players like sOs and PartinG.

Can we please have a honorable mention of Has

@@rain9058 considering Florencio actually crafts his own strats, has developed this strat more than 2 years before this game and has been playing this way since brood war? I highly doubt he got inspired by any pro-player at all. It is also not at all inconceivable that SoS either saw Florencio doing it or had someone try it against him and thought: "Huh, that's neat. I think I can make this work, actually." Because SC2 pros watch funny SC2 videos too.

LMFAO

And the recall to make it like that was the end of the failed cheese was masterful as well.

Same here, really hope sOs comes back after his military.

@Zach Neeb: Am i a guac to u?

N Flo has been KR GM not exactly casual

@@SIyMarbo and this is gsl not low gm

@@GoblinUrNuts Lol just objectively incorrect

just lucky

@@MrAlkylation Yes, but so there is all the cheses in the game. There is luck involving whether the opponent RANDOMLY scout out the build.

GO watch Florencio files. Guy invented this.

All he had to do was lift the depots and trap them in the main and the ebay would have finished

Don't feel bad- not even the casters fully got it as they were watching live. SOS built a nexus in the enemy base. This is already completely bizarre and unheard of. A nexus is a purely economic building- it can't make military units. It would be like if the US para-dropped construction workers into Nazi Germany to build a shopping mall. Then SOS pretends to micro his worker and let's it get killed, giving Bunny a false sense of security that the threat of more buildings being built is over. Then, to keep bunny distracted, SOS does two key things- he has a zealot attack bunny's front door while he uses the recall ability on the nexus to teleport two adepts to bunny's base. This distraction serves two purposes- it makes bunny think that the purpose of the nexus was to teleport in the two adepts, and, crucially, it keeps him from seeing that the nexus then produces a single worker, which SOS hides in the fog of war. Bunny, once he cleans all of this up, kills the nexus before it can get enough energy to do a second recall. He thinks he's won- his opponent has apparently done an all-in that has failed. What he doesn't realize is that everything he has just seen- the thousands of minerals SOS invested in building the nexus and the units, all that harass- was all done just so SOS could spawn a single worker in the enemy base and use it to build a pylon where the enemy isn't looking. Back at home, SOS has built a dark shrine (let's you build permanently invisible guys) and researched an ability that let's you create units at a friendly pylon- which he now has hidden in bunny's base. A casual viewer might assume that SOS just got lucky, that Bunny just happened to miss the build animation and didn't have energy for detection because of bad luck. What you have to understand is that these guys are professionals- bunny was caught flat-footed because he was certain he was safe from stealth units, a myth he bought into because SOS had just put on what is probably the greatest puppet-show of misdirection in the history of Starcraft.

omg, we need Has vs Florencio! the showdown for the ages!
