Sucked that two gate pretty much countered the effectiveness of his overpool speed. He wasn't counting on Best two-gating.

If it was overpool Hero would have been ahead but it was 9 pool gas.

He was desperate to do damage because he suffered too much from the zealot harass regardless of the protoss being well prepared to defend.

Bisudagger and other commentator not understanding much of first game...."hero is ahead" while game was even if not already in Best favour...

when did we say that? I said best was ahead when he got his third and that was the turning point of the game.


Before Z attack on 3rd base...anyway i like ur comment overall....i woulnd't be following ur stream otherwise

Was it? That's even worse. He would have still been behind with overpool speed though.

I think Hero was confused because someone went 2-gate in 2017

cross position and those particular build orders put the protoss at an advantage from the get go to be honest..

hero had to do great things from the start after the build order choices..

ZeuS's analysis.

1) heRO notices BeSt likes gateway into expansion -> wants to kill it with 9 pool speedlings.
2) BeSt does 1 base play which nullifies the threat of 9 pool speedlings, and has the advantage
3) herO makes 2 hydralisks to stop the corsairs. If he were going lurkers, he would have made more. BeSt should have predicted mutalisks in advance.
4) BeSt should have noticed the hydralisk count, so shouldn't have gone for robotics bay. Going for the natural was the right choice.
5) BeSt goes for speed zealots, which is okay against 2 base 3 hatchery play, but not against fast tech 2 hatchery play.
6) BeSt goes for the rush anyways, but herO doesn't see the speed zealots coming and loses tons of drones, which shouldn't happen considering he went for 2 hatchery play which is already low on drone count.
7) BeSt secures his natural and wins the game.

It seems neither play had a clear idea what was going on, and BeSt came out on top of this clown fiesta (which may be what he was aiming for, rather than a pre-planned build that had every variable in mind).

No one does overpool speed these days. It's 12 hatch then pool. over pool expand or 9pool speedlings (even this is used very rarely)

Any Peruvians on TL want to give us their analysis on this map?


hehehehe best one of the day. I actualy believe we have to study best odd build because it puts the zerg in such an odd spot. It's a risky build, but it worked out pretty well. He placed hero in a low eco game situation, then he relied on his amazing macro skills to win the game. After the first push on one base, hero add to spend larvas on drones again. so hero spent money on pretty useless muta tech, then had to rebuild economy. Meanwhile, best takes second base and becomes totaly equal or even ahead on the eco, and it's just a matter of time before he starts producing a massive army. With this tech, the protoss is always kind of equal on the eco, and still gets very quick tech while being the thread in the early game. We have to study this more in details, because i think that best put a lot of thoughts into this build. I have not heard any relevant analysis so far on any of the streams.
