why change strats when you are winning with the same playstyle .. of course they have loses but what team doesn't lose

but they have really high winrate with it so no reason to use other strats outside scrims if they can just play normally .. they can use other strats during relevant series during some tournaments playoffs as a opening match

are you guys worried that Secret's not getting the versatility they need?

I don't get why not practice different strats in less important games

Short answer: yes.

Specific strats aren't too much of a worry at this stage since 6.84 will likely be out before TI5.

I'm pretty sure this is more like something Zai saw in a pub and wanted to try out than a real planned strat.

I'm sort of worried if they don't bring out other stuff at a lan but using one strat seems to be pretty good for groupstages/quals. I mean remember they went undefeated in groups with one strat at DAC. They do have to adapt past groups though or I feel like they'll be slightly disadvantaged against EG/whatever good teams come out of China.

secret needs to start doing some new stuff. they are too good to lose to random CIS teams. They never know what to do once they get a lead.

There's no reason to bring out different strats in online quals when your standard will get you qualified. There's probably a line a mile long of teams willing to scrim against them for stuff they want to try.

I'm not saying they DO have new stuff, just that there's literally zero reason for them to SHOW new stuff.

I gotta say, when I heard Zai was gonna offlane I was skeptical. But I am now truly convinced, he's a badass offlaner, although his hero pool seem limited.

there's a difference between "puppey picks like 3 heroes at each position" and "has a narrow hero pool, can only play a few heroes".

Every player on secret is undergoing a serious case of the former, not the latter.

Some wild theory of mine considering recent events:

What made me suspicous: This Burda-guy, LazShorty, gets mentioned in Team Secrets last tweet:


It seems that Cyborgmat and Puppey are visiting, what I've gathered, Budapest(?) to meet up with this guy. From his twitch bio it says that he's a former semi-pro who's currently streaming. Looking at his only tweet, tweeted roughly one and a half months ago he says 'Burdagaming Coming Soon.'.

A quick google-search gives me the guys twitch channel, a facebook page and a youtube channel. All under the Burda 'brand'.

I might just have gone full out tin-foil hat or this might have something to do with Secret. They might be looking for a new coach, they might be looking to join up with this Burda-organisation or it might just be some stupid coincidence. Only time will tell, but what do you think?

BONUS CLIP: Don't speak the language (turkish?), but Team Secret is mentioned quite early in the VOD: http://www.twitch.tv/burdagaming/b/641334619

EDIT: Istanbul, not Budapest. Makes sense, since that puts us in Turkey.

After watching s4 stream a lot I'm not really sure how Secret ever loses games.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Yeah I know how this feels. Definitely the most untouchable player stream Ive seen. Sheer outclassing of opponents.
