Code S Group B - Anypro, Clide, Ensnare, Violet

South Korea Anypro vs South Korea Clide @ Crossfire

Both players were neck to neck for the better part of the game as neither Clide's two-pronged marauder aggression, neither Anypro's DT harass succeeded in inflicting heavy casualties. However, Clide eventually got a macro advantage due to his third being a gold and after an indecisive engagement by Anypro the terran got the upper hand after his EMPs rendered the protoss army impotent. As Clide moved in towards Anypro's fourth, the protoss gg-ed out.

South Korea Ensnare vs South Korea Violet @ Belshir Beach

Ensnare opened the match with a minor hellion aggression but transitioned straight into tank/marine as his mid-game composition. His nicely placed defenses and turtly play kept him safe from Violet's mutas which found barely any gaps that they can attack. As Ensnare took the gold as his third, he moved down and pressured Violet's natural and with the zerg not managing to engage properly brought the terran player the victory.

South Korea Clide vs South Korea Ensnare @ Terminus

Ensnare tried to hide his reactor hellion tech and fake a fast expo build but Clide scouted that and got his tank out in time to deny the harass. Both player then transitioned to banshees and Clide easily got the upper hand, his flier having 12 kills, almost twice as many as Ensnare's two.
As the harassments ended, Ensnare opted to take a quick third but at that exact time Clide moved out with his rine/tank army, supported by some vikings and a raven. Using PDD to win the air battle, Clide got a significant supply lead and all that was left for him to do was move to Ensnare's natural, crush it and win the game.

South Korea Violet vs South Korea Anypro @ Dual Sight

After stopping Anypro's stargate expand, Violet stayed on two bases, getting baneling nest and overlord speed and drop, clearly aiming to crush the protoss with an all-in play. Luckily for Violet, it all worked perfectly for him and Anypro could not both forcefield properly and dodge the baneling bombs and in seconds the protoss base was in ruins. Anypro would drop to the up-and-down matches.

South Korea Violet vs South Korea Ensnare @ Crevasse

Violet once again tried a 2-base baneling play, going for an early bust at Ensnare's wall but the terran reacted calmly and did not take heavy casualties. He then took a quick third and, being 1 base ahead of the zerg and with a better tech, Ensnare pressured Violet a few time and eventually the game was his as he sieged at zerg's low-ground and killed his only expansion.
