Um, Calm is hot right now, but he isn't "better" than Effort. Effort didn't play smart against Calm. Calm is... calling him an Aggressive Zerg is wrong, IMO, since Calm takes u all the way back to the era of Poor Zerg players like JinName. Basically, I view Calm as a Poor Zerg with modern strategy and mechanics. The key difference is that an Aggressive Zerg still needs to beat a Terran or Protoss opponent in econ in order to win, but a Poor Zerg says "fuck econ" and will play with such a hyper aggressive style that they are often behind a Terran or Protoss opponent in econ (and yet still can win).
I agree. Calm is more akin to yellow than he is Julyzerg, for example. Hes really very aggressive but he does it in a strategical and intelligent manner.


July is terrible at zvz. I'm surprised that he won one game against the person who beat jaedong in a box.

Would you beat him in a box?
Would you beat him with a fox?
My strategy is to fork people.

No, but since the 2008 ever osl, 79% of pro zergs would... [his win rate is 21% in case your wondering...]

Effort is just a new A zerg. He can win or lose to any other A zerg (aka Calm). July is not A zerg anymore and ZvsZ is his weak match up. End of dicussion.


A guy loses against pretty hard opponents and all of a sudden he's not S-Class anymore.

EVERYONE has a week where they just lose for the love of god.


Effort wasn't and is not a S class zerg yet. He nevert enters the semi final of any star league.
Having a hot streak means shit in this case.

So type-b is an S-Class zerg, and (Z)EffOrt isn't? I mean, it's not like EffOrt just beat one of the best Protoss of all time in a crucial ace-match. Or beat Flash and Jaedong in proleague action. And the streak? Only 27-3, the second best 30 game set of all time. Yeah, EffOrt's a chump.

Clearly.

Nothing surprising here. It would be a huge upset if July had won this one.

Now I am waiting for epic final; Please Flash, don't disappoint me.
