So Ma Jae Yoon had so many fans watching him play that they had to pull into another room to address the crowd by television. He showed them how to 2 hatch muta, and all the progressions of the 3 hatch build.

Someone asked about the Kingdom of Zerg.

Ma Jae Yoon explained by example. To be the Kingdom of Zerg is like trying to max as fast as possible with a single starting drone on a random map.

Some drones end up on blizzard maps. Usually there is no buildable ground so they just sit there until the vultures kill them.

Some drones plant down on a double gas expansion. Although the user is able to tech quickly, he can't stop the early marine push for lack of minerals.

Some drones plant down at hard to defend natural expansions. The user becomes so caught up with fending off early attacks that he never bothers to expand.

Still other drones plant down hatcheries at protected natural expansions on Loki II and Gods Garden. From a solid defense and ample minerals they expand the creep planting down 2, 4 sometimes even 12 additional hatcheries.

Ma Jae Yoon then said "He who has ears to hear, let him hear. The secret to being the Kingdom of Zerg has been given to you"

update edit:

for those lost : Mark 4:1-11

This thread is going places.

It is easier to fit a zealot between a supply depot and barracks than it is for (Z)YellOw to enter the kingdom of God. Or win on OSL.

If your Guardians cause you to sin, cut them out! It is better to win the Proleague final with no Guardians than to burn in the fire of Proleague Gehenna.

And Bisu said, "Everyone who comes to me, and hears my words, and does them, I will show you who he is like. He is like a progamer building a nexus, who warped in a forge, and laid his nexus at his natural. When the swarm arose, the zerglings broke against that nexus, and could not shake it, because it was defended by cannons. But he who hears, and doesn’t do, is like a man who built a nexus on Tears of the Moon, against which zerglings rushed, and killed, and the ruin of that protoss was great.

And sayeth Bisu, "Thou shall build the nexus after a pylon, but before two cannons. Not four cannons, not one cannon, but two cannons. Two cannons is the number that shall be built, and the number of cannons that shall be built is two. Three is sometimes ok, but five is right out."

To everything these is a season, and a time for every tactic in the metagame;
A time to be produced, and a time to die;
A time to mine, and a time to spend that money;
A time to kill, and a time to heal (unless thou playest Vanilla);
A time to hydra-break, and a time to rebuild;
A time to cry like a little girl, and a time to perform a ceremony;
A time to take another silver, and a time to be a champion;
A time to waste units, and a time to micro like a god;
A time for exuberance, and a time for the CJ face;
A time to win, and a time to lose;
A time to turtle, and a time to all-in;
A time to attack, and a time to defend;
A time to be stoic, and a time for bm;
A time to love this game, and a time to hate DTs;
A time of war, and a time to gg.

I originally thought the Kingdom of Zerg referred to a Zerg who could macro fast like Kingdom. Completely threw me off the trail. In context its pretty awesome though.

Ma Jae Yoon, our Lord and the (Z)sAviOr, who is ever vigilant of the suffering of the swarm, will protect his children all in due time. For all who believeth in him will be saved by his son, (Z)Jaedong, who will correct the sinful nature of the maps and punish those who perform faithless duties such as cheese and murderous bunker rushes. Thou who are punished will be sent to thy destiny, forever known as slump.

The Terran Bible

You shall make walls to better protect yourself.

You shall then make tanks that fire interplanetary explosives that kill many units with one hit, and damage all those around your target.

You shall position these tanks in the most obnoxious of places, and prevent the enemy from approaching said place by placing invisible homing missile mini-nukes in the ground that leads to said place.

You shall then use the fastest unit in the game to run by all defenses and successfully lay mines behind them to prevent them from saving their priceless peons, which die in 2 hits, whereas yours have 150% of their health.

You shall utilize the invincible combination of marines and medics to destroy an infinite stream of any Zerg unit because your units are effectively immortal.

You shall push forward with tanks at a pace of one centimeter per minute by unsieging one and putting it in front of the previous, repeating this leapfrogging motion until you arrive at their base and kill all their probes from behind a cliff in one volley of shots.

You shall complain when you lose that the other races take no skill to play and are by nature inferior to yours, and ignore the fact that you have multiple nuclear weapons AND a list of superior players in any era of the history of the game of Star.
