People, it was 9pool lair, not speed, 9pool speed is a bo win vs 12hat. Brilliant play by effort though, great shouldve used his mutas defensively though, you cant afford muta/ling backstabs, whileas effort has spores so he can afford muta backstabs, I feel he shouldve taken a faster upgrade(great) and ridge the game slowly with it. I really dont like the 2hat spore vs 1hat muta ZvZ metagame though, although its nice to see the game changing, and greats slow drop was pretty cool too.

i think that it was the only thing that he could reach - effort already had a spore colo underneath his overlord in his mineral line.


Oh right. That would explain it. I must have missed it.

I really don't see Much beating Jangbi on Destination

I think his only chance is to catch Jangbi off guard with DTs but I'll be shocked if Jangbi isn't prepared for it. anything else and it'll probably be Jangbi by rape

Didnt effort do this build not too long ago and win?

Depending on the map and travel distance onf the Zerglings I expect to see this build used more often.


It was against fake yellow for the super ace. Yellow didn't last as long though =\

Effort also had the advantage that game since Yarnc went overgas.

Great's biggest mistake looked like getting lair before speed.

Sick play from Effort though.

zvz too awesomeeeeeeee

I don't understand why great didn't just attack the drones instead of attacking the hatchery in the beginning.

I don't think all over the place, he just had one right to the left of his middle mineral that sticks out.

Let's see if we can spot it in the replay (you can see the creep colo there now).

he was probably taught that the lings must be doing dps. that's kind of a random guess, but it's the only think that i can think of that would explain why he chose to attack what he did.

Much best have something creative planned here, because there is just no way he can keep up with JB in a straight up PvP...


Much went standard against Stork yesterday even though Stork has a 60% win-rate vs P.

So Much might go standard again seeing as he and Jangbi both have 50% win-rate vs P.

DID I JUST SEE A 12 HATCH BEAT A 9 POOL SPEED!!!????

EFFORT IMBA!!!

9 pool Lair. That was the first time someone actually pulled drones off all the way to the nat. Smart and well executed by Effort. But Great left something to be desired. he could've done more damage with 6 lings vs 9 drones especially since the drones weren't near any resources and could've be stacked.

Wow, an interesting ZvZ for once!

Dude...there have been so many great ZvZs lately. Pretty much all of Effort's ZvZs in PL playoffs have been amazing...also Kwanro vs. Zero in MSL was sick.

Jaedong and Zerg-heavy maps (Battle Royale, RAII) have totally changed ZvZ over the past year and a half or so. This matchup is now a far cry from the BO-determined "whoever has more mutas at X:XX wins" games of a few years back. New levels of micro and tactics have made ZvZ more sophisticated, and more enjoyable to watch, than ever.

Even though I voted CJ and I like Effort more than Great, I still wanted that slow ling drop to work just because the idea is pretty awesome.
Zero fighting.

it's finally starting to turn into a matchup where the more skilled player wins. The thinking depth got a ton harder imo, and, just like the other mirrors, requires making the right choice of build against the opponent and the map.
