Heh, that's probably the longest time covered by a single post update I've seen. Usually there's incessant 15 second updates, this was all the way into late-mid game.

Blah Hogil was in a good place in the beginning, his mutas killed a decent amount of probes while the mutas survived, and Kal took a long time to transition into making a large ground army after his sair/DT open did nothing... Yet Hogil didn't take any more expansions, tech up, or do anything useful  . This game is closer than it had to be.

Hogil loses his entire army (decent sized hydra/lurk/ling force) on Kal's side of the map and fails to shut down Kal's third. Kal then expands to the bottom left expansion and goes for another attack on Hogil's natural but dark swarm stops it. Hogil snipes the nexus at Kal's fourth with a small group of lings and expands to the top left expansion. Kal drops 4 DTs in Hogil's main and they snipe the spawning pool before Hogil can defend. Hogil starts to apply pressure to Kal's defenses at his third at 6 o clock with defiler/lurker/ling/hydra. Hogil is now at 3 carapace 2 melee attack 3 ranged attack with Kal at +3 weapons. Hogil clears out Kal's third, then moves over to his fourth and clears it out as well. Kal now has no income and launches a last-ditch attack on Hogil's natural and fourth, but Hogil defends after zealots pick off the hatchery at the fourth. Kal's remaining forces die and he ggs.

I have been saying it for a long time now, Hogil probably have a top 3 ZvP in the world or the very least a top5. He is ridiculously good at ZvP.

FPL: -6 points and counting

This entire game was rather bad. Fortunately for Hogil, Kal's PvZ is worse than his ZvP.

The ZvP specialist strikes.

Kal GGs and shows a smile. WP Hogil.

I always knew him as having a decent ZvT, but not so much for his ZvP. I'll keep an eye on him
