Chaos night #3: Taking out China's top Tygem players in a single night: chaos(P) 9d vs. tryortry 9d
Background: Won Seong-jin 9p, playing as chaos(P) 9d, is an active participant in many of Tygem's online tournaments. Recently he seems to be on a bit of a decline as in his last 20 games he has only gone 11-9, which is only subpar considering he used to go 17-3 and beyond. Could this perhaps be in connection to his sub-par performance in the pro circuit perhaps (or maybe his recent involvement with BaToo has affected his game? :p)? As a result he has also taken a severe hit in his T-points. There has been a Tygem article on chaos(P), including in-depth analysis on his style of play, breakdown investigation of his screen name, and a deep commentary on a game he played against hua 9d. You may find more information at http://www.tygem.com/column/tygem9/viewpage.asp?pagec=1&seq=9305&gubun=7 (in Korea, non-Korean speakers please use Google Translate).
tryortry 9d is Tan Xiao 2p. Not much is known about him, but he is a heavy Tygem user with over 1000 wins. It is worth noting that even though he is doing much better than chaos(P) regarding performance in the last 20 games, betting favored chaos(P) for several potential reasons:
1) tryortry was likely to be on a heavy tilt after getting destroyed by 블링블링(P) 9d 3 consecutive times just hours before. It's worth nothing that 블링블링(P) is currently highest ranked and is a new and rising Tygem star. Many are already beginning to speculate and come up with theories as to who this player may be (leading theory seems to be Kang Dongyun 9p). 2) chaos(P) was on a 6-win streak going for 7, so clearly this was his night. 3) tryortry is behind chaos(P) in their series.
Nonetheless, perhaps this is the game where tryortry can make up for his bad losing streak? See for yourself!
