If it works then it's a fine strategy. Do you even remember the games he went queen on? He abused queens vs that map with a neutral cc vs kal and hwasin, and that game vs Bisu on HBr with a proper strat to snipe HTs with the ledges on that map, and a game vs skyhigh where he was meching. Queens are standard in late game zvz because ensnare destroys stacked mutas. | ||

He's on fire now, and it's pretty awesome to see him like this, but it remains to be seen if he can keep going if he hits a couple stumbling blocks. yeah I completely agree. Zero could always play at an extremely high level and having this streak right now doesnt mean that much yet, although he says himself that his ZvZ has improved a lot which will be really helpful for him to advance deep. I feel like since calm has an indivitual title, zero should definitely have one. | ||

Yeah, zero's building placement zvz has always been solid. Hyuk's decision making in all-in attacks really seems too desperate at times, and the fine point of his zvz always was his air control, and he was already far behind once spire units popped. Realistically though, hyuking jokes aside, I don't really think anyone really expected Hyuk to bounce back after losing to Flash on the biggest stage like he did... | ||

Just another normal day for us protoss players :-( He lost to hydras, yes, but not to a rush. He lost to a better strategy that delivered a timing attack before he could effectively harass. EDIT: The way he said it implied some sort of two/three hatch hydra bust with no econ. Saying protoss lost to a 'hydra attack' is kind of like saying terran lost to a recall. It's totally unremarkable. | ||

At least last year Hyuk's muta micro was pretty good, good enough to win zvz's against strong zergs. But lately he's been trying to ling break in so many of his games...did his muta micro slip away or something? | ||
