Another day, another scrub to own for JD.

Hopefully Pure does some cool shit and puts up a good fight.

So, does Effort have a chance to advance now?

What? So going against the mechanical mainstream, and playing unorthodox and fun to watch strategies - with putting up results! - is now "attention whoring"?

It's not what he did, it was why he was doing it, giving himself that nickname prince of the zerg and trying to use queens in a game... it was gimmicky, like a self-promoting marketing ploy.


Whats wrong with trying to use queens ? I still say that if they are used right they can be pretty useful in all MUs ...

"It's not what he did, it's why he was doing it."


It's fanservice...

He gives us entertaining games, what do you have to complain about? 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.

Only if Leta wins against Action on Dreamliner. If Leta loses, Bisu and Effort are out of the OSL.

I dunno really, zero has always seemed to me to be a really streaky player--he had that crazy zvp streak a while back, and then for a long time did nothing of real note. 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.

it's been discussed in this thread to lenghts before. If Leta wins against Action, then Action, Bisu and Effort will play tiebreakers for the second place in the group.
BW fighting!

But the sunken placement was good too - not much area for Hyuk to attack, and again lots of his lings were left behind until he belatedly tried to get them around the hatchery, but it was already too late then.


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...

Too bad this isn't a PvT or vP or Pure, no chance with his outdated Protoss play.

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.

Yes! 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?

Well, Pure should try his best anyways.
