Zerg can straight up beat the protoss army in mid game when mutas pop and snipe the high templar, and again after getting 4 gas and pumping ultras. I'm not sure why JD didn't build mutas or ultras when Best had no reavers and almost no corsairs. JD's build has been used against 1 gate openings since around late 2015, and is the build that has been used the most along with 5 hatch before gas in the last year. Example games would be Effort vs Bisu VNSL finals games 1 and 3. Muta switch is risky vs fast 8gate(aka 2 base all in) which Best does a lot(Shuttle too), if anything Bests 3rd was unconventional and was scouted late (props to him). Also pros rarely go 4 gas ultras, this was already happening a lot in Kespa era. | ||

I mean, there were some really impressive 9 pool/overpool builds in ZvT that were planned for a macro game (for example Zero vs Flash on Match Point). But it's a rarity I would say. Zero vs Flash was 12pool. | ||

Sadly his protoss seems fairly weak, and there are going to be a lot of protoss from here on out. I believe in the Dong though. He will pull through. Either way im fucking pumped for more ASL. I forgot how much more fun it is to watch BW than sc2. Couldn't agree more | ||

His analysis was on point pretty much all the time. Still would like to see him get his casting partner back (either FlashFTW returns, or he gets someone else). I think that would make him even better, and it's always nice to have someone to play off of. | ||

I was wondering why he sent the marines there. Thought it was to snipe the OL originally and he saw the main but well, that explains everything lol | ||
