If Inno beats Rogue then Zest has a very good shot at the ro4 or even finals. I'm not sure if he can it though with so many strong players on the other side (Classic, Dark, soO).
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

PvP is probably the least random mirror. Great PvP players win PvPs pretty consistently. Just ask Zest.

Last year Zest also played herO at ST first round. herO used mass oracles to play around Zest's mass phoenix. That was a crazy comeback game. This time though I think Zest easily takes it.
Neither party will be missed.

He's playing today in ballistix finals.

Game 3 huge throw... had a good economic advantage ahead 2 bases, should have made cannons at the bases againts phoenixes. Also the last fight wasnt necessary imo that far out.

The final game he chose a very high risk stupid strategy. Doing proxy dt after a failed proxy stargate... why not just play safe after that...

It really is depressign because he has the skill, but cant deliver.

Really weird decisionmaking in these games, cause he looked like the better player overall but threw it on silly cheeses.

I'm not really sure how he lost those games tbh. herO didn't even look that good

It's a shame because he could have had a great chance getting past Inno and Stats in the ro8/4.

Well. Zest and herO are good friends. I'll bet they practice PvP together a lot (not for this match of course). I feel Zest tried to mind-game herO so hard and also tried to exploit some of weakness from herO that he might have seen during their practice. However, it looked like herO played pretty safe and handled everything well all things considered.

The frustrating thing is that he really should have won games 3 and 4 (he did a fantastic job of bringing game 3 btw).

I'm not sure how Zest should have won game 4. He used DTs for the 2nd time and Hero was 100% ready for them and Zest typed GG. At what point should he have won that?

In games 2 and 3 Zest took a fight in space, away from a ramp or protective cannons or shield batteries. In both engagements Hero had a little better army and won and that was the difference. That was not cheese! The main skirmish in map 3 was after Zest warped in several Hts because he had lots of gas. He made Archons and probably thought his army was strong enough. Hero had about 15 army supply more and a better mix with more charged Zealots and Immortals as well as some Archons and air.

Let's talk about decision making. The DT attack in map 2 was foiled. Why come back to it in map 4 when the match was on the line? You could argue that because he used DTs before Hero would not be expecting them but he was. Big time expecting them.

After the DTs did not work well in map 2 it became a longer game and as I said before he lost a major fight in space. The army that Zest had and lost with was a stalker dominated army vs charged Zealots and Immortals. Tell me if that was the right mix.

Nah Zest's army was better in the final fight in g3, but phoenixes sniping the prism meant herO could reinforce his army and Zest couldn't.

He was about a minute or so away from having a strong enough army in G2. Don't forget that despite herO losing probes he'd been building a much stronger and larger army. Zest was still behind overall, but probably felt forced to defend his third as his main would have been running dry and a probe lead means nothing if they can't mine.

That's why I thought Hero had the better army mix in map 3. He had a small air force and Zest had none and his charged Zealots were the difference.

Another major tournament is over so where now to we put Zest among the Protoss players in the world and overall?

The most recent power rankings have Zest 11th with 4 Protoss players among the 10 ahead of him. Stats-Classic-sOs-Trap. 2 of those plus Hero made the final 4 at ST.

Remember the group D Protoss meat grinder in the rd of 16 at GSL? sOs-Stats-Trap-Hero all there.
