Here is the LINK of the patch update:

After the bugs fixed, we have a change of TS:

Each Dark Wizard replaced with a Renegade Wizard and a Rogue.

Which means your unit won’t get become a sheep again, but your summoning unit might be get Purge. Besides of those Bugs and this map change, we have no balance change in this patch update. By the way, there is a pretty interesting “bugs fixed” here.

Illusion no longer deals 1 damage

Murmur: “I thought them made it purposely, so that’s a bug, fine then.”

Moon finished All-Kill and became the King of the hill.

Twisted Meadows has always been a map for us to witness the miracle.

In 2005, Moon played with Dark Ranger first on the TM. When the DR reached Level 6, Moon made an incredible move. He used “Charm” on a Peasant and used him to build the Human base and hero. After that, there is a classic moment of “A Song of Ice and Fire” (Blizzard + Fire). I guess ToD can’t get rid of the shadow brought by this game for his entire career.

Fourteen years later, Moon was making an incredible game on TM again. He used Fire Lord first, and playing Moon-style, expansion everywhere. He ended this series against Chaemiko in perfect posture. Additionally, in this series, Moon used seven different first heroes to play against Chaemiko, like he was having fun with his opponent. After the 7-0 victory, Moon’s winning streak in the WSB came to 7 games.

A few years ago, Lyn made a 9-0 in the series of King of the Hill against Team China. And now, Moon “helped” Team China to get a revenge.

The first set on Northern Isles.

If we say, Moon has 50 ways to beat Chaemiko, 45 of them are Chaemiko falling himself.

The first set of NI, Chaemiko was starting very good. Usually, when the Human successfully broke the upkeep to Tier 3 army of 80 supply, and with the level 3 MK and Aura of Legion Doom-Horn, the Night Elf can only type out GG soon. Even if he is Moon, it is difficult to turn this situation.

Unfortunately, Chaemiko chose the wrong way to play. He gave up to use the Dwarven army, the strongest fire of the Human. Instead, he trained a lot of Spell Breakers, lack of DPS and ability to anti air. After that, Chaemiko’s ground forces were quickly swallowed up by Faerie Dragons and Panda.

He lost the game he should have won.

And the second set on Terenas Stand.

It’s a pity that Chaemiko lost the game on NI, but it’s nothing compared to the loss on TS. In that game, the Human three heroes level were 5, 4 and 3, with the Gryphon Riders, Knights and Mortar Teams, it is really difficult to lose.

However, Chaemiko lost the game again. In the face of high-level Warden and Panda, the key points of the Human are, you need three Gold Mines, and three Sanctuary Staffs, Chaemiko didn’t do one of them. Meanwhile, he only went to fight against the opponent directly. And of course he lost the fight, the double ultimate of Warden and Panda was getting so much kills.

Beastmaster on Concealed Hill, making the impossible to possible.

With these two comeback game, Moon’s already understood the strength of Chaemiko. After the third set that Moon played with DH first and won easily, Moon presented the fourth starting hero, Beastmaster, on CH. There is no doubt that Moon was going to rush because of Beastmaster first, and Chaemiko’s also defending perfectly. When the game went to daytime, the Beastmaster was still only level 1, and Moon has not built the Ancient of Protector yet. Everyone thought Chaemiko could have gotten a point back by the time.

But Moon took the only chance. When Chaemiko;s army is recovering, the five Glaive Throwers fully focused fire on the Human base, and the base was fallen. Moon is so good at making the impossible to possible.

The last map, Twisted Meadows.

When the result came to 0-4, Chaemiko apparently lost his confidence, and Moon started changing the strategies to enjoy the game, like he was playing with his fans. DR first on EI, and Panda first on the AZ, Moon again took down these two maps, and the score came to 6-0. Even more terrible is the last map was TM (Twisted Meadows, or you may consider it as The Moon.)

However, the situation looked different from the previous six games, Chaemiko’s opening can be described as “winning”. And seems like Moon’s giving up this game, using Fire Lord to face MK. Even more, the MK was holding a Great Mana Potion, he killed the Fire Lord and then rushed into Moon’s base and killed all Archers. At the day time, the Moon Wells were all dry, and the Human Tier 2 push seems unstoppable.

As it turns out, Chaemiko did want to win, and he also played hard. But he couldn’t win because he didn’t know what the conditions are. Moon kept hitting MK and let MK kept in low HP, and used Ancient of Protector to stop Human towers. Chaemiko turned and went to leveling when he saw this situation.

The retreat let Chaemiko to completely lose the chance of victory. Moon started his show, and expanding everywhere. Without expansion, Mortar Teams, Chaemiko was weak in Base running, and his Peasants were getting killed again and again. Chaemiko’s macro and strategies were slightly weaker than Moon, and his micro was also far behind.

And the series ended with 7-0.

WSB Season 2 is coming.

Luckily, in the number drawing, Moon is the 5th seed in the next season. And at least half of the players needn’t to face Moon.
