This game is a must see. What's your first thought about Queens in ZvT? Sloppy micro? Dying idle queens by goliaths? 10 broodlings on one unit? Forget all that and watch how Larva uses them against Flash. Beautiful.

Edit: game starts at 36m30s if the link wouldn't work.

edit: Though Effort also uses it with hold command. So he right click move command his mutas way behind the marine ball, and when he feels has enough distance to shoot against marines, he hold commands. This is effective if you feel like or need to kill a marine ball fast enough. For picking up single marines a-click behind


for single marines patrol is amazing, try it

Yeah plays almost perfectly right now. Flash really struggles to win vs him. Earlier when he had beat flash and got a lot of balloons he was pretending to be dragoon. Hilarious guy :D

I think its when he receives a donation (balloons or something in afreeca). Yeah I saw the dragoon and it was hilarious (even though I didn't understand one word he was saying)

What a gameee! That game was absolutely historical and groundbreaking in my humble opinion . Does anyone see it too? I think it's happening, the bw space-time is bending once more, time will tell sooner than later dw.
For the moment I'm calling it and making it my quote.

Yeah I've seen several of his games in the past few days that have just been awesome. The use of Queens is amazing. In fact I don't see how he could win without them. He keeps them alive the whole game and abuses the tanks and Goliath's with them.

I think he's really perfecting their timing and use on the battlefield. It's always seemed to me that Zerg players are like "welp he went mech let's save up and hopefully mass queens will pay off". But larva is integrating them into his play as a solid strategy and making them a staple in his army.

He's turning it into a science, and what a mad scientist he is...

Larva is really showing the strength of Zerg in long games. Terran just cannot break through Dark Swarm, and Queens feel like a super version of Plague, completely erasing tanks and goliaths. And his mechanics are just sublime. He is the only Zerg I've seen who can really wreak havoc all over the map.

I wasn't sure about that.

I was watching a game Larva vs Last and at one point there was a vulture sliding backwards. It looked funny to me. I may find it if anyone is interested...

I would say Effort was the one to conserve and continously use queens throughout the game in zvt first i believe, some time after he returned from SC2 in early 2015. Zero was the one to start using them back in late 2010, as the first player to successfully deal with the unbeatable mech revolution in 2010, but i dont think he perfected them like Effort did. I might be wrong on that, i would have to go back to 2011-2012 vods and watch Zero games again to see how he developed them. Or maybe someone here can just tell us if they know.

Zero in post-kespa i feel has more moved away from queens, leaving it to Effort to develop their use. Larva is definitively inspired by Effort in his queen tactics. But Larva might become even better than him again and its very impressive how he has developed.

I'm saying it Larva has the best ZvT now. Flash and Last are having trouble beating him. And it's amazing considering his win rate vs the two last month.
