Isn't ZvT Soulkey's best matchup? Maybe his ZvP raw win percentage may be higher. But if we're just talking about versus top Terrans and Protoss, Soulkey is truly a ZvT monster while his ZvP is a notch below Zero, Soma and hero.

Sad that Snow lost

His ZvT is def weaker than ZvP tho. Currently only 38% vs Rush. 3W 10L record since July.

It's funny that Soulkey and Hero knocked down Bisu and Snow, who are more likely to beat Royal and Rush than themselves.

The original balance theory of Z>>P>T
The reason T does well is because Ps get eliminated by Zs


Slight addendum: Z >> P > T = Z. However Flash >> P, Z, T, which gets conflated into T>Z and T=P.

SK went 8-1 against Light in Ultimate Battle earlier this year so that makes sense.

Can’t argue with that. Imo Flash skews racial stats more than any progamer. That shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, but I’ve looked at numbers and its ridiculous.

Snow.... Why doesnt he engage the scourges in Game2? he has enough sairs to one shot those scourges. nor does he go overlord hunting with them during the muta counter.... seems like a throw. he was content to go down to 1 base mining for such a long time. disappointing play.


Hero is a monster

Well then. 2 zergs who are not known for their ZvT in the semis up against 2 of the current top 3 Terrans. I wonder who will receive practice help from Light.

Soulkey not known for ZvT?
May the BeSt man win.

He may have heavily skewed stats but he is just one person, that means playing only a few of all games played. Shouldn't his stats be drowned when considering all games in total?

No you are right, I should have qualified that its the skew to the number of individual league titles won by a race that Flash has tilted more than any other player. There is simply too many overall games for a single player to impact. But in the mindset of fans, its the championship runs that really stick out and impact our perception of racial balance.

I really thought Snow was winning after he killed a huge flock of muta/scourge for the cost of two HTs and then killed Hero’s fourth... I don’t understand how Hero survived.
May the BeSt man win.

You're right if we look at all games played, but I'm talking more about perception than raw statistics. People pay way more attention to the results of tournaments than they do total games played on sponbbang, and in tournament play Flash easily skews the "stats."

lol you pretty much said the same thing I did
Funny thing is, in the “modern” era of starcraft, T isnt even ahead in gold count, its still Z. My data isnt updated, but at worst lets say its a tie. The only explanation for Tesagi is that Flash’s wins are so dominating that T still comes off as OP.

You guys need to stop hyping Snow up and start respecting Hero a little more, the guy keeps doing well in most ASLs he's been in.
BeSt / Bisu ftw!!

That was extremely disappointing. I thought Snow could at least take one game and then get screwed by maps. Hero played great but watching PvZ lately is frustrating.
If in doubt, differentiate and set equal to zero
