it was really common about 6+ months ago until 3 hatch roach/infestor (or hydra) styles became standard. it is still pretty decent if you can use lings to delay or deny the third of your opponent, or especially if you get an early lead with either defending an all-in or by your own attack.

SKT with a chance to take this. Gotta win the next and then Ace match. Who can play next? S2?

Yeah I always like to see ace matches. Ambivalent on preferred winner but an ace match always brings welcome drama/tension >:D hope Best gets sent out next.

Assuming you just mean SC2 (though it doesn't matter in this case actually), if you count KT v Khan, there were + Show Spoiler [not sure if...] +

Queen attack.

This is either a misclick, or the really weird proxy-hatch-cancel-into-spine-crawler cheese I saw Nestea do once.

Wait, what the fuck.

Hyvaa just made a creep tumor in the center of the map? Did? What? How did he do that? Did me make and cancel a hatch?

Woooaaah. The two random Queens in the middle of the map was for forward creep spread. He made a Hatchery in the middle of the map, canceled it, then laid a creep tumor on top of the residual creep. Clever.

Huh, I wonder what he's going for with this. Maybe it's some sort of special tactics :O

This creep map is so bizarre.

Hilariously, Hyvaa's "normal" creep spread from his natural is actually pretty bad :O

This is a fairly entertaining TvZ I do say.

That's the thing about TvZs, they usually turn out to be very interesting! Okay that's debatable but quite a lot of people enjoy TvZ very much. I know I do even though I otherwise like to watch vP matchups the most hehe

Yeah it's decently active, lots of multitasking fails and crappy engagements though.

That wasn't the most high-level game, but it was entertaining in it's own way. It's weird that hatch-cancel-into-tumor for forward creep gets used in SPL and GSL in the same week (it didn't work as well for Nestea, who was trying to spine crawler rush).
