luxury didnt even really play well, stork is just bad at pvz
good macro, bad decision making abilities I disagree, his macro was very poor, and his decisions were fine. He just got overrun. He was very VERY slow in taking new bases despite having a unit advantage for most of the game until ultras were out. A good protoss will expand like a zerg as soon as he has map control and then mass reaver to secure the end game. Stork only took 1 extra base and it was much later than lux took his. Maybe stork didnt think lux could possible have the northern island but he really shouldve expected it due to the early drops and semi passive play by lux.

Record so far? Just got here

Finally Lux creamed Stork! But damn I'm NOT impressed with his play so far. He seems to me to be very weak vs. Protoss early on, or is it just because of his stupid mistakes in the beginning of the games? At the end he overran him with units but untill then I think he's unfortunately very vulnurable early on. He better up his game even more if he wants to him the match I think.

he never tried to take 6 til way later

There just seems to be no flow to the games.
It's like they send out whatever they got and just keep doing it until... something happens. The timing and the gamesense are always a bit off.

LOLL YEah hahahaha omg thats exactly it

Lux lost tons of units early-midgame but the safe island meant he only had to defend one place really to get a 4 base economy running. ZvP after hive tech is so much easier.
The game illustrates why good PvZers go sair/reaver on this map.

Luxury never backs of. Once in battle he either wins or his units die. Stork should have known, so many zerglings were running around.

He always had stuff over the 6 island. It was a bunch of olords and scourges to pick off potential obs and drops

oh, i didn't mean in that game in particular, i mean in general

There was a window of at least 5 minutes where stork couldve mass expo'd, when luxury was just pumping lings

Very well summed up I think Unfortunately that's how I see it to. Really bad play and very weak early on the then he just overruns him with his Ultras. I'm rooting and voting for Luxury but so far his play has really disappointed me. Sadly enough...

Units lost: 370 zerg, 190 toss. That is not good for toss.

thats all right though, luxury's build wasn't pretty, but it worked. looking forward to the next games
I dont know, the percentages are pretty shitty for Zerg (in favor of Toss). Other than like Jaedong (also vs Stork), no A class zerg has won a single game on it till today.

3nickma, if youre disappointed what wer you expecting? I liked the way lux played this game. It was a very strategically solid game overall. Which I like to see.
