Bisu plays defensive! I think deep inside he knows he will beat Soma in the late game!

But he doesn't suspect Somas top left base...

Soma is getting so far ahead again because he has tricked Bisu in a super defensive position. Chosim doesn't really have anything to put any pressure on Bisu... I think Bisu has to kill a billion overlords to come back.

Tastosis keep saying this thing... is it true that EVERYONE is much ,much better than two years ago?

Soma yes. But everyone ??!?!?

Is that what they are saying in the English stream? It's obviously isn't true as can be seen by the skills they show every match this ASL. Strategically the players are more advanced, but it's painful to see that they are obviously worse in every other aspect.

It's the narrative they've been pushing, I don't wanna say "always", but for a while at least.

the knowledge of the game is MUCH, MUCH better nowadays than it was 10 years ago.

The only thing worse is mechanics, because they don't play 12 hours a day anymore. Still very impressive to see professionals play mid and late game. The micro/macro/decision making is still astonishing to witness.

Players streaming vs secretly designing strats in teamhouses

I wonder which environment evens out the knowledge?

Nothing to be happy about, really.

What happens if Z goes for hydra bust, Protoss makes enough cannons, and Z doesn't actually attack? Isn't the protoss behind either way?

(I haven't watched a lot of pro SCBW)

Yeah, protoss is behind either way unless he manages to precisely predict the exact amount of cannons to block the exact amount of hydras zerg decided to build. I personally think that the danger and the Zergs' ability to do these kind of burst was the main reason why ZvP was(is) so favorable for zergs throughout the broodwar history, since, protosses could (can) only lose or go even in the first 10 minutes with the zergs, they do not have a winning move outside of zergs fucking something major up


Hydra busts were not a thing in the old days though. The reason for historical imbalance in PvZ is multifold.

I feel like imbalance of this match up mainly comes from the fact that zerg can do whatever the fuck he wants, switch to whatever he wants whenever and protoss have to fight for their lives in early and early-mid game.

If you dont scout perfectly, you're basically dead.

Bisu stops just short of scouting the 4th lol. But at least now Bisu realises that the push he though was coming isn't and he ws tricked.

Think Soma will actually pull this off with Flash? I want some underdog action here but he probably get curb-stomped.
