Spire starts for JD, citadel for Pure
no air weapons, though.

everything standard so far

i guess pure thinks he doesn't need to cheese to win
I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up to prevent a dick from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers!

JD sneaky expo

That's actually a fairly standard spot to take a 3rd, since fortifying the top right's natural secures you a 4th base (the main) virtually for free.


Not to mention the long cross push positions for protoss.

Zero really seems to have matured as a player. I haven't seen any more of that "prince of the zerg" and "impress the fans" bullshit in a while, and he just seems pretty comfortable in the booth. While not a favorite to win a starleague, he's been pretty consistently hitting the ro8. I might have to change my opinion of him from an annoying attention whore to a respectable player.

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.

Could you quote where he gave himself the prince of the zerg nickname? I'm doubious.

He showed a completely viable queen strategy against Bisu on HBR, then abused some map imbalance with it against Kal. He used queens in ZvZ too once, but its known that pure muta gets counter-productive after a while, and the answer is either ensnare, or hive tech.

All in all, I don't see your point. It seems like you might have a grudge against Zero fanboys, and that Zero gave them ground for whatever nicknames they liked, that is no reason to hate the player.

Wow people are really bad at understanding nuance. I don't hate the kid, and I don't have a grudge against zero fanboys. I was noticing a trend of zero maturing over time.

A year ago, zero was 68 wins - 74 losses (47.89%) and was hovering around 50% in all matchups. He was a player who was putting up barely mediocre results. He kept getting sent out, yeah, but so did every zerg on every team at that time -- which was doubly embarrassing since he couldn't ZvZ to save his life. His games were often absolutely painful.

Anyway, for how lackluster his results were, he sure was accepting a lot of accolades for his "innovative" queen play in his interviews. The prince of the zerg nickname was extremely presumptuous for him considering these results, and it annoyed me. In interviews, players like jaedong and flash almost always had an air of humility and determination ("I will work harder") despite how badass they are -- meanwhile zero was like "teehee I'll use queens because I like the attention, I'm the prince of the zerg!" I consider this to be immature.

This is my perception, my opinion, it's not truth and you're welcome to disagree.
