PvZ is somehow imba every minute of the game, alternating between each race. Sounds like any non-mirror to me. But seriously, stop saying imba all the damn time. Especially on a P>Z map.

Nah, we weren't saying that's imba, just that it's annoying.


The word imba was used, learn to read:



\I will admit that. I was surprised at effort's macro. But this imba is rather annoying me as a p player.

I just hope TurN will start trying to be Flash 2.0 rather than UpMagic 2.0 after today.

Awww. So CJ won't sweep this round.

I'm a huge (Z)EffOrt fan, but by all accounts he played amazing, and only got beaten because (P)JangBi ate some magic donuts before the game. Whatever, EffOrt is still a ZvP god.

Most annoyed about (T)sKyHigh though. We all know how good this kid can be and he just refuses to show it. (P)Movie has lost two in a row now as well.

(Z)Hydra and (T)TurN... I love both.

I opened up the results menu and the first thing I saw made me sad. I wanted to close it right there and then, but I found the strength and bravery to look further and I am no longer sad.

Fortune favors the brave.

Protoss losing to mutas is about the worst thing that can happen imo

so boring..it's like, "gj you won without doing a single thing"


effort plays nothing like shine, he goes standard almost every game and wins with mechanics


That is why I am not a big fan of Effort. He overwhelms opponents with mechanics and wins even though he makes strategical mistakes here and there. I'd like him more if he shows out of the ordinary stuff sometimes or if his play feels more genious rather than super robot. But I guess that's what makes him such a ZvP beast.


hmm actually compared to crap zergs like yellow/luxury/shine/kwanro effort is a strategical genius.

Every single game he has a plan that goes from 4 drones to 40 and from 3 base to five and six.

He has been a front runner in developing zvp standard play over the last six months (only behind jaedong) and zvt he is the only zerg in the world right now with a consistent midgame AND lategame plan.

Anybody who wants to learn how zerg should be played needs to watch effort his understanding and lategame in both zvp and zvt are insanely deep not to mention he is a mechanical genius with 100 less apm then jaedong ..... I mean really ... how is that even possible ...


He plays standard really well and consistently is what u r trying to tell me. Which is basically exactly what I posted. He plays like a super robot and that is why I don''t like him that much.

How did he become a front runner developing zvp play,??? What innovation did he make? He just takes what has been proven works and does a damn good job of recreating it in his play but that is why his zvz is so random because what works is usually luck based BO.

He is smart and top tier for doing what works very well. But he is in no way a strategical genius if he doesn't show a lot of creativity.


i take it you don't like flash very much


I like Flash. He is capable of going nuts and going for unorthodox builds, creativity or cheese. as he has shown before many times in the past. There is personality behind his play.

Its not that i hate Effort, I just wish he'd show something out of the ordinary or has something about his play that when people watch it they go" that's so Effort".

I think hydra winning should be noted too.

Even though I'm happy for samsung my fantasy team got completely raped because of this game, (Movie and stork losing). Oh well, at least Samsung got revenge.

Watch last season Leta's opponents. So many zergs (A-A+ ones included) did the wrong thing.

(Z)EffOrt does have his own style though. In ZvP especially, he's really brought back into the mainstream that four-gas-power-hive play, that got supplanted by Jaedong's aggressive lair play.

There's usually a moment in his ZvP's where the protoss has this huge army, and EffOrt just has a few sunkens, and some lings and lurkers, and he breaks out the devil juice, slows the protoss, and next thing you know, there are lings and ultras all over the map. In the great game against Stork in the playoffs, people ciriticize stork for attacking EffOrt's nat, but if he continues to delay, EffOrt was right at that moment of explosion that he usually rolls his opponents with anyway.

I really hope the way stork lost doesnt signal a decline.

Losing vs shine on a zerg friendly map pool didnt worry me but now seing stork fuck up his cannon timing so badly even though he scouted correctly makes me a bit nervous over his future.

When was the last time stork screwed up so badly vs Z?

I remember his vZ being painfully awfull at one point(his early-mid game late game hes always been great) but i cant think of any game he played where he scouted correctly and STILL let the zerg do a runby.

I like Turn, but it was dumb to all-in with the wraiths like that. He could have easily expanded and transitioned into bio after getting an advantage from the wraiths

It's one game.....

Man people these days are SOO quick to call slump it's really amazing. Yes he lost very badly but it is possible for a guy to just have a bad day and nothing more.
