Meh, as much as I cringe when I hear you talk about balance (probably cause you're too vocal about it on the forums), I agree PvZ looks horrendous this OSL. They need to revamp the maps. >_<

Best map ius arguably RoV and Pusan said before games that he thought it was worse than Mercury lol ^_^

But all this argument is silly, Julyzerg, best fucking ZvPer ever wins 3 games on horrible maps and everybody is back at it ( omg *cry*whine Z>>>>>>>>>>>>>P ) -__-'

Get over it, Starcraft is an incredibly well balanced game, Z has a slight advantage on land maps but what about Nal_ra 5-0 streak and Draco 7-0 streak vs zergs ? If this mu was as imbalanced as many think it is these winning streaks would be impossible.

Wake up it's not Z>>>>>P it's fucking Julyzerg >>>>>> P ^_^

i didnt think fast expo was too good on rush hour either, but since pusan pulled it, i thought it must've had some worth. hydra does seem impossible to defend when you fast expo. you can't cover every angle AND protect your ramp without building like 10 cannons.

but you're right, maps were heavily against pusans favor and i guess that was why he played so desperately.

what makes ride of valkyries so hard pvz though?

I've never even tried fast expanding on rush hour, it just seems like suicide o____o;
But everyone seems to love it +_+

Anyway, I don't know WHY but ride of valks feels really weird playing PvZ on, it's like.. You can't really rush but fast expanding is risky, you can't really 1 gate etcetc it's odd ;o I've barely played it tho. I think pusan saying it's worse than Mercury meant july is a beast on it, not in general (I think I remember he said playing ride of valks vs july is worse than mercury).

Well pvz is hard, it is hard to beat top z in bo 5 with p. However I believed in PuSan, I thought he will do much better. Ah well.

One thing just crossed my mind. When was the last time p won over z in bo5 in starleague?


I believe that would be when Reach 3-2'ed Chojja (which really should have been 3-1 for Chojja if Chojja didn't completely fucked up the 4th game by leaving an entire mining base with no detection)

In OSL, I believe it would be way back in 2004 when Reach etched out a 3-2 over Yellow (which really should have been 3-2 for Yellow if he didn't completely fucked up an impatient attack; probably the worst zvp game Yellow ever played)

Well.
Remember the maps were complete fucking GARBAGE that OSL, so reach winning 3-2 is fucking impressive -,.-a

Anyway, it's not like there's been a lot of PvZ bo5s, reach vs yellow, reach vs chojja, reach vs ipxzerg, pusan vs july

Honestly Pusan never ever ever had any chance at all. All 3 games were pure, complete rapage. July never even tried (not like he had to anyway). Each game lasted like what...10 minutes max? Wow does Anytime feel lucky how he didn't have to face a zerg in the last OSL.

Last time I checked, both yellow and ggplay are zerg users. And he beat them both.

Anyway, equalling july to 'a zerg' is like calling Mike Tyson 'a boxer'.

July is a god, Pusan clearly has some way left to go and we need better maps T_T

This was one of the ugliest series of games I've ever seen, I was literally saddened by it. Those maps feel completely impossible to play vs someone like july on.


I couldn't agree more. It's time for the map makers to recognize that PvZ is at epidemic levels of shittiness right now and is more important than TvZ. Period.

And despite your bullshit FA, Anytime would not have one that OSL if he had to play a Zerg. Not just July. Any Zerg.

I don't know about you, but I don't count a lame ass 3 gate dt rush and a horribly responded to faked fast expo lot rush as real wins. And how interesting that both those players were/are playing like complete shit.

P only wins PvZ when the Zerg fucks it up.

Everyone else I've seen talk about anytime's win vs yellow described it as genial. I'd say it's about as valid/even more valid than julyzerg all-in hydra linging vs pusan twice in a BO5?

And people need to not put so much stock into 3 games.. Boxer 3-0 yellow in what, 30 minutes MAX? TvZ imba? (Maps)
Nada 3-0 July, relatively easily if I remember things correctly, in the final no less.. (maps)
Nal_rA going 10-0 on guillotine (was it 10-0 vs zerg or 10-0 in general?) (map)

Need some good, STANDARD maps.. The new maps are all very.. hm. -- I want something a little more similiar to say, LT. Just very standard, but not boring like luna.. Oh well :O Requiem I feel fits this bill (when I say standard I mean a classic map, ie NOT cultivation period, which I'm sure could be made good but currently doesn't seem to be, although I must say pusan really did play like complete crap on that map, he looked like someone who had lost all confidence, he did pretty much the exact same things that I do when that happens -.-).

R-Point had really nice PvZ stats, too bad it was too hard ZvT at top levels ><

Manablue, you need to stop whining all the time, lat osl you were complaining about how bad maps were for PvT ( but Anytime won didn't he?) this osl, how hard pvz is...

I agree maps are not good for pvz, but you definitely should stop speaking about balance, because you won't be happy until P>all, which is really of no interest at all.

July is an incredibly good player, it's his 6th osl, he won 2 of them and was finalist once, his best mu is pvz, it's not an amazing thing that pusan lost 3-0.

I REALLY root for Pusan. I hope he will bring down that cocky bitch July, and show him that his zvp can be defeated. That would be sweet. Besides I think its Pusans time to go big.

Firstly, I based the PvT bitching 99% on 815 and I thought it was imbalanced because I was consistantly getting my ass handed to me on it PvT. Apparently I'm not that good.

It goes to show that maps need more playing before you can make a judgement and not have it fly back in your face. What a shame.

But in terms of this OSL, I have great confidence in saying the maps are bullshit. RushHour has been no less than renamed ZergHour among the Korean community, the changes to 815 weren't fun for PvZ, RoV has been a gong show lately (though I will admit this one is mostly July), and for god sakes let's not talk about CP. As we get more games on it you'll all come to my side of the fence. It's the most pathetic map I've ever seen in OSL play and we're going to have to sit with it fucking us in the ass for another 3 seasons. Fucking terrible.

And finally, since PvZ has been fucking bullshit for over 2 years, I don't think I need to point out that the matchup is imbalanced, full out, and it's general fucking knowledge. Read the interviews...July Zerg himself says ZvP is easy for Zerg. The POS coach says PvZ is intrinsically hard to win.

They are professionals and they admit it. Why can't you?

If there ever was a series of games that bring up balance issues, this was not the one... Pusan was incredibly aggresive every game, and I honestly thought he had a good chance in the first and 3rd games while the 2nd game he opened with probably one of the only things that works well on a horrible ZvP map and July took advantage with basically a counter strat especially for the map.

In the 3rd game he had a bad attack and hid the Zealot saw he could see Julys tech and July FOUND the zealot. They showed his face and he was obviously dismayed. Then July proceeded to do the one thing that would work well vs him(Mass Hydra) as he was protected pretty decently vs Mutas and perfectly vs lurkers. He has similar badluck in the first game imo. As I feel that if July hadnt perfectly timed his attack to kill the cannons he woulda been in for a very hard game.
