I think 3 hatch hydra has big potential not by just puting some pressure on toss slowing his eco and cutting his +1 zelot timing by destroing his forge but even in macro and can give a better advantage in drone count compared to 3 hatch spire where u sacrifice some eco into fast tech. | ||

Too lazy to look it up. She asked sea after the finals match in the interview who he wants to avoid and sea said he'd like to avoid Protoss. She jokingly said something like "I'll take a peak and try to not get protoss" and then she ended up matching sea up with toss lol | ||

We could say top2 qualify to make the tournament shorter. Isn't that what they do for Code S SC2 groups? The current format is fine as it is, especially since there's not an overwhelming number of players like SC2 has, so there's no reason to expand the number of players per group. | ||

Broodwar is also not a volatile as SC2. I think it should be all Bo3 though. But then again: You have to win 2 or 3 games (depending on the route) to advance but you have to at least lose 3 matches to drop out. I think it's fair. | ||

He lost his third and a good number of units defending, however he also blocked any attempts at movie getting up his own third, and movie was mined out in his main before even his first attack, and his natural ran dry shortly after the attack finished, whereas hero still had three operational bases (though main and nat were close to running dry). | ||
