Effort is my favorite Zerg in BW. Let's see if he can make me like SC2 with this.

EffOOOOOOOOrt Fighting!

It's hard to judge, his macro is good but the hardest part for Z in SC2 is macroing while under constant pressure (which Flash didn't apply at all). his playstyle seems similar to Ret though.

A big part of sc2 zerg is how well you handle harassment and balance macro vs defence. It's hard to judge from that game how he is at that. He certainly looked much better than almost all the other BW players we've seen playing SC2 so far though.

Competent. His creep spread (I harp on creep because it's the most visual way to judge mechanical skill in SC2) was way better than Jaedong's, but notably worse than, say, Dongraegu's. He made a greedy play, got away with it entirely unmolested, and rolled with a vastly superior army. That makes it a bit hard to judge his skill, but he didn't fuck anything up.

Okay, SC2 TvZ theory talk time...
When Terran goes fast 3OC and tries to match Zerg in bases, he MUST harass in some way. MULEs are great, but queens and larvae injects are better. That's why OP TvZ players such as MMA go for hellions and banshees to kill drones and force spines/spores. It's actually suicide for a Terran to try to trade with Zerg when they have 80 drones and 3 fully saturated bases.


Actually, those days Z have gotten really good at deflecting hellion and banshee harass. The aggression of choice is strong 2 base timing pushes and bio drops. Drops in particular can do a LOT of damage if the Z reacts incorrectly. A dropship full of bio with +1, stim, and decent positioning can kill a large number of lings, and tons of drones if Z is slow to bail.

Uhhhh not sure. A large part of ZvT is knowing how to defend against multipronged harassment, and knowing how to handle pressure while continuing to drone. But Flash didn't do any pressure whatsoever, so it's hard to tell, but he hit a majority of his injects and his upgrade/building timings lined up nicely, so he's definitely no slouch.

He definitely plays at that level. Pretty awesome game from Effort

Flash does not seem to fully realise that you cannot sit back TvZ. Have to be aggro otherwise you get roooooooooollled


ThorZain plays a defensive macro style in TvZ (like 1 racks double expand), but he then goes really fast siege tanks. With more siege tanks he could have hold, maybe he should have delayed the medivacs in favour of siege tanks if he intended to turtle.


And Thorzain got kicked out of GSL Code A several times by mediocre Zergs. Style doesn't work vs truly good Zerg


According to TLPD he only lost one BO3 (against YuGiOh ) in Korea, and I think his build would have hold that bust. I am trying to argue for Thorzains strength, just that a fast third needs more siegetanks to be hold.

Thorzain played in GSL once and lost 2-1. He's 4-4 in GSTL with a 5-6 record overall and 3-3 in TvZ. Not much of a sample size to make any kind of reasonable judgment.

Varies a bit, but outside a few 2 and 3 base timings it tends to go into an ultralate game confrontation between broodlords with support vs mothership archon plus support.
