tvz for sure.

you don't stand a chance vs CaStrO or kolll or mondragon or sen in ZvZ.

after you played TvZ for 8-10 years, switching to ZvZ can't get you those years of exp.

please choose fast, so i can finish my TSL contest :D


you are pretty ignorant... i played them plenty and zergs better than them and I know my chances ZvZ


aaand where do u get 8-10 years from? :|


the amount of SC you played over the years. You stated that you played SC from the start.

Also, I have a right for an opinion and I think that castro will do better than you at ZvZ. you can always prove me wrong.

For a serious response: you should pick the one which you are better at.

From an outsider's perspective (mine), it seems to me that your ZvZ will be your better overall matchup right now (since you have been hitting it hard recently). The TvZ might be more familiar, but in a tense situation you're unfortunately more likely to misclick, forget timings etc. when switching races "all of a sudden".

I really feel that you know what the best option is but are trying to find an objective or outside opinion about it. You are a smart guy, you just have to trust in your instinct. I would say go with your gut.

no one here knows better than you how comfortable you are or how well you will do with either matchup.

but yea i agree from a spectators perspective, tvz is way more fun to watch.

I'd much prefer you playing TvZ as a spectator standpoint, but you've been grinding out ZvZ for awhile now might as well see it through.

i'd love to see you master zerg in all match ups, but play what ever you feel is more fun!

TIME FOR SOME EPIC D+ ANALYSIS
-ret mentions regret for switching to ZvZ in TSL predictions video
-ret streams several TvZ
-ret creates crazy TL poll that ultimately has no bearing on his decision
-a confused castro is unable to see through the fog and splits his practice between ZvZ and ZvT
-ret practices ZvZ hard core
-ret 3 > castro 1
-ret wins courage
-ret wins TSL
-ret shoots NeoOmega for revealing his evil plan

Ret had some of the sickest foreign TvZ I've ever seen back in the day. Even though ZvZ is my favorite matchup, I think you should switch to TvZ again at some point. (though it doesn't have to be right now)

Terran for sure. Are you just wanting to play tvz for the tsl or are you thinking of fully switching?

ill be quite straight up.

your zvz was 3-2 vs FLAF.

You probably would have beat him 3-0 TvZ so..
