IMO the main issue was that Hero made scourge as soon as his spire finished, and they got microed to death. He popped those scourge because he didn’t have the minerals for mutas, which happened because he had to make and cancel buildings to save drones, plus moving drones around to try and keep them alive. To answer your question, Zerg has to play conservatively until it’s ruled out that something like the 3port build is incoming. You can get burrow pre-emptively so it’s ready shortly after the first wraiths hit, which lets you save your drones; if the wraiths never come, you can just cancel burrow. Or, you could delay your third hatch to make sure you have the minerals to pop 6 mutas when the spire finishes. | ||

Overall, this season has been fairly low-key outside of Speed's surprising performance. Some disappointing results from my ro16 hopefuls including Mini and Jaedong, and then Light ate his own socks. As much as I love SoulKey and think he's heavily favored against everyone, I'd love to see Sharp take it all. Not even a huge Sharpie fan, just think it'd be hype. And SoulKey get's a silver. Something tells me that if Sharp were to win, he'd subsequently fade into the mist like Larva did. | ||

Speed had matches that went on longer and he was able to show off :p. also we got 3 of last season's semi finalists back in the semi finals. I think thats a first? | ||

Not quite a first, but not in a while. Semifinalists: ASL11: Mini, Larva, herO, Queen ASL12: Mini, Rush, herO, Queen ASL9: Light, Queen, Soma, Flash ASL10: Larva, Queen, Soma, Flash | ||
