I don't think his PvP is that great either but those two games against herO were pretty weird. He lost to a one base dt rush and a pylon rush. On most other maps that pylon rush probably wouldn't work.
I really hope Zest can take out Stats today... All though the thing with the ex-teammates thing still worries me. I watched the first game between Zest and herO, didnt look like that of a normal series. We need to remember that Zest came 2nd in Home Story Cup! Thats still an great achievement!
Oh gawd, don't remind me of the HSC final... Sure, it's a great achievement considering the stacked line-up... but watching that live at the venue was the most intense, nerve-wrecking, gut-slitting, heart-breaking experience of my entire SC2-fangirl life, holy shit. Everybody was happy and cheering for Patience while I felt like crying T.T I think I was more crushed than Zest lol xD (although giving him a hug afterwards made me feel a bit better lol xDD)
Hope I'll have time to catch his game against Stats
He got 2-0ed by both INnoVation and Keen today, however he was able to defeat Stats, did anyone watch the games? what happened? I mean, INnoVation is good and I would understand if he loses to him, but losing to Keen? This is really weird.
They didn't show the games against Stats but against Innovation he did a pylon rush with a proxy stargate and Inno held really well and then in game 2 he went dt's that didn't do very much and eventually died in a longer game to a bunch of liberators. Against Keen he went dt's again and did a lot of damage so Keen all inned and Zest didn't hold well. Then in game 2 he died to a very fast 2 base tank push with bunkers that he didn't scout. I was looking at his ladder stats and his PvP and PvZ are both like 75% but his PvT is in the 40's. Kind of weird how bad his PvT is.

I think it was wrong to try and cheese InnVation in my opinion. He's too stable for that.
Zest has some pretty good game today, seems like he still have trouble against Terran. I hope he can fix it in time, however there's no Terran in his group so I hope he can at least advance to the Ro8

It was only 3 but I think that's already pretty good as a debut in an online event like this
Yeah he played really well in Shoutcraft. It's looking pretty good for his iem group tomorrow too. He is top 5 on the ladder (pretty sure he has two accts in top 5) with a really high PvZ and PvP winrate. Hopefully he can avoid the terrans.
