Too bad he is likely to be destroyed by Flash, I think action is much better than Zero and he got owned by a Flash that was making a lot of mistakes


I would've liked to see Larva but lately he was getting squashed by FlaSh, we can only hope if ZerO will hold his ground. And FlaSh must be prepping even harder after being barely eliminated last time.
Yeah, after his close call I expect Flash to be extra prepared for Zero.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Exciting non-stop action games. Too bad no hive ZvZ

Just curious - is there any viable hydra build for ZvZ in early or mid-game? Or is spire the only option?

Hydralisk builds in ZvZ are doable, but not viable at progamer level.

Don't think so, Zero is a really strong player and it will be a close series. There was a bo9 in Starcraft End of The World Series and Flash barely won (5-4) so people are underestimating Zero abit.

Well, it all depends on whether zero can keep up with his nerves. He definitely has the skill to do it. In a lot of ways he is one of the most brilliant zergs ever imho but has always been held back by some other characteristics such as his nerves.

Lmao, STPL build from Larva


The eCiN special!

It was close to working as well!

Good games, im sad Larva lost but I think he didn't have as good as a chance vs FlaSh as ZerO does. FlaSh is like Larvas mental block, he gets crazy tilted vs FlaSh.

The fact he struggles with nerves surprises me given how amazingly good he was in proleague. I guess it's the difference between fighting for your team or fighting primarily for yourself. The pressure must be much higher.

Fun games, loved the choice for Larva to go with such a wild build in g5, shame it didn't work though

Great games overall. Zero was clearly the better player, but Larva prepared very well. Very unlucky on the last map to get scouted first, but if it had worked, it would have been crazy. Overall a really great set of games this week.

Was rooting for Larva but ZerO is a better opponent to give Flash a run for his money

This was a fun series. I anticipated larva winning due to another thread that recently popped up, but glad that I was in for a surprise. On one hand, I'm glad that ZerO won because I truly believe he would be a better match for Flash. On the other hand, I feel like ZerO is somewhat overrated and he always flounders. I would also rate Action above him in ZvT prowess so I don't think he'll beat Flash but guess if he manages to take a game, I'd be happy haha.

Hopefully ZerO is emboldened by Action’s performance. After seeing that, he has to feel like he has a chance.

The downside for ZerO is Flash is more likely to prepare a fancy build or cheese him than he was against Action. Action got to prepare for a more predictable version of Flash than Zero will face.

Just watched the VODs, great series for a ZvZ. Rest of the Bo8 has a lot to live up to after these first two matches.

ngl this was the best ZvZ series i've watched in a long time

just a bit sad larva didn't make it, especially after seeing him pull through in game 4 after he semi gave-up upon seeing the lings, which you can see the player cam at 1:20:06

Game 4 even Larva knew he had lost, but Zero choked, he should have seen the first overlord when he moved out with lings near his cliff, if he didn't he still saw the 2nd overlord going on diagonal from bottom right, and still he sent 5 lings to the bottom left. If he had reacted and sent all the lings to where Larva was the damage would have been probably too much already :/
