I'm pretty sure every pro zerg tried that in practice and every pro p faced it .
He's just the first who can do it in a televised match.
he still played well though I agree, this is hardly brilliant. Its not like he had to come up with a strat. Right, he didn't come up with a strat. He just used a unit that is hardly ever seen and used a build that no one has ever done before in a public game. -_-

1gate tech from Kal, ling sneaks in
|
Zero fighting with Kal's scout again with his lings.
His ovie arrives at the wrong main.
Core going down, one ling gets one probe.
Zero taking natural
|
This 2 gate did nothing at all, and hes so behind.

commentators: ah... it really does seem that kal is playing with a blank mind.. he must be shook up. ah things are completely twisted for him now that his strategy has been revealed... starting with 2 gates and becoming poor and now warping a stargate..
|
Stargate going down for Kal, as he chases this nuisance ling.
Another hatch going down for Zero in the main, and a forge for Kal.
That ling HAS to be pissing him off big time.
Goon is out now, should take care of it soon.
Lair and den for Zero.

500 damage is ridiculous. regardless of the situation in which you obtain them, that is too much damage, its just stupid. land-scourges that are harder to kill and do 4x the damage

you can't steal already-infested CC's right? (lol obvious question) He'd need to MC an overlord as well to be able to make them though, cos of supply.

commentators: kal NEEDS to move out now .. he can't just sit still like this he needs to force zero to at least make a sunken or something. wow.. that ling is still alive? even though a goon was chasing it? that ling's desire to live is unbelievable. that ling alone has 2 kills
|
Oh my god he CANNOT get that ling lol.
First sair is out, but hydras are out for Zero so it doesn't get much.
Kal moving with a handful of zealots and a goon.
Finally a cannon goes down in Kals main and the ling leaves. Attacks a probe warping in kal's natural then finally dies
|
|
Zero's so hot today, 1st this min glitch with lings, then defending from 2 proxy gate, then infested CC and now doing so much dmg with few lings.

Are you suggesting that another Zerg would not make use of the neutral CC?
|
Spire going down for Zero.
Kal just content with expanding, he really needs to get goin' here. Zero is on 3 hats and just chillin' pretty much.

commentators: rather than lurkers it seems zero is thinking of mutalisks. those hydras seem there purely to defend against corsairs, yes the spire has just completed and he's saving his larva. commentator 2: ah, but he can also be faking and making it seem like mutas when its actually hydras...
|
I think the correct answer to zero's strat with IT probably involves corsairs or some form of strong anti-air to prevent him from just dropping IT on top of dragoons.

Next thing we see is maps where building-addons for terrans are already standing in the base, like scans from first moment, auto-attached physic-labs and controll-towers... You're a Zerg and you call this Bullshit? This is brilliant.
So your mental concept is "I am playing Zerg so please make all the maps strongly Zerg favored so that I can win every single game \o/" In exactly how many years will you reach the age for high school?

commentators: kal expanded really late... on top of that he started off with 2 gates and a stargate.. what does this mean? this means he'll have late observers, which means zero should utilize this and go lurkers

God, I love you zero.
You're just too cool.
|
ZerO now taking the natural for the 1 oclock main.
Kal has like 5 corsairs just hanging out.
Zero has lurkers now and sets up outside of Kals natural.
Now the corsairs are moving, but Zero has scourge.
Finally Kal is doing something, and the hydras are out of range.
Zero shuffling more lurkers over.
Kal has a robo facility.
