Eh, I dunno. 9pool seems to be the new mid/later game counter vs. FE toss.

What are you talking about HyuN is a really good zerg lol ;o
I thought he had the game in the bag until..much uh did his thang



i gotta agree w/ you oneother. hyun played absolutely brilliantly. i think he needed to be a little bit better about timing his expansion in the top left, as well as placing a few more overlords around to protect the top left.

also hyun should have done a bit better job of being aggressive in the bottom right (not toooo much more aggro vs that, or else it just would have botched miserably)

the only serious late game error that hyun really made was not getting that top left expansion up early enough and he didn't do any small ling drops in much's main. those late game 8-16 ling drops to kill gateways can be GAME changingly awesome.

other than that, EXCELLENT EXCELLENT opener by hyun. he may have been a bit sloppy about building drones well, or controlling his units perfectly. but DAMN that was a beautiful BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL play.

Fuck yea thats why hyun is MBC's next zerg champ!!

No, he was actually ahead in bases for a while The 9 pool overlord build is standard now because it usually forces toss to make a forge + 2 cannons. Delaying the nexus by 450 minerals. While going pool before hatch only delays it by 200. Even against a good toss who only makes 1 cannon + good building placement and a couple probes to be safe it still puts zerg ahead by 100 mins or so when compared to going 12 hatch.

I could've sworn I remember one point toward the top-left of the map where Hyun flanked Much's units from three sides, but Much did some gosu 4x storms to pizzwn everything. Pretty much agreed on all of the other times though lawl
edit: nvm they showed the replay, that was horrible hahahah

Hyun lost that game. It seemed like he didn't even try to control his army in battle. His lings ran in straight lines making it easy to storm. There were 2 battles that he lost that really put him behind midgame, one of them being his uncoordinated attack on 7. 3 cannons, 4 zealots, almost 30 lings running in a straight line dying to 1 high templar's 2 storms. At that point, I knew it was over for him.

Haha Dat
Did you also jizz at Hyun's SMOOTH early/mid game management? It was like Much was playing in his hands lol. I agree with you though. I think what he needed to do was make more lurkers and hold center with hydra/lurker/ling/swarm while using drops on expos/main. But i don't know, I guess Hyun did get really nervous. Do you remember the part where like 8 lurkers were separated from the zerglings and zealot/archon raped them? I thought that was the turning point. HyuN blew his chance of gaining back the center and Much did a brilliant job of keeping Hyun busy.

I think Hyun himself knew that he was at a pretty large advantage and..yeah.

His game plan was really good gotta agree with you there, but the execution was poor, as I said before If he just had controlled the middle with a good unit placement, he would had taken the top left expansion without any trouble.
Don't take offense, better make amends, rip it all to shreds and let it go

Am I the only one who thinks Hyun died because relied entirely on pure ling?

I mean he only made a couple of ultras, some unused defilers and i think some lurkers. But Much having Archons and storm pretty much raped lings, flanked or not.
