Innovation still looks unbeatable in TvZ when it comes to bo5 / bo7 and finals.
Why so serious?

In an offline Bo7 (like the GSL semis where Dark will meet Inno, if they both advance) I wouldn't favor any Zerg in the world against INnoVation. Not even Dark.

Exactly. I know he lost some best of 3 games against Zergs here and there, but the longer the series the more i favour Inno. Thats too bad because i like when Zergs win.

Dark is very strong in ZvT, and he has the record to back it up. In 2017, he's 14-6 in offline ZvT series, a 70% winrate.

But Inno is just insane. His offline TvZ series record for 2017 is 28-3, over 90%. Twice as many wins and half as many losses. Simply put, there is no Zerg in the world that can stand up to peak Inno.

Dark vs Innovation will be a great semi-final match if they can both make it through.

P.S. does anyone know how to get editing rights back again for the OP? It's been a few years since I made the thread and I can no longer edit it.

Why are people talking about how unbeatable Innovation is against Zerg when Dark destroyed him and eliminated him from the Master's Coliseum tournament 3-0?

Innovation failed to make the semi finals in both GSL's so far.

Because online tournaments don't count for much. Inno (and every other player) can lose to just about anyone when they aren't taking things seriously. And his TvZ record in offline tournaments (which count for a lot more) is close to unbeatable. It's not rocket science.

Sure, he hasn't won a GSL yet this year. He has still won more big tournaments than any other player this year.

Don't get me wrong, Dark is a very tough opponent for any player (including Inno), but he won't be favored if they meet in the semis.

Dark moves to the Semis, Inno moves to the Semis. We are about to see a sick Bo7.

Dark and Solar are my 2 favorite players right now with Zest out of the picture and Rain playing broodwar. What sets Dark apart is that he is good enough to win this thing. He is good enough and solid enough to win the world championship.

He certainly has the best chance among the Zergs and he can match up well with the best players of the other 2 races. I don't see any foreigner taking him out though a match with Serral would be a fun ZvZ.

Dark should beat Dear and would be favored to beat Classic and a chance to beat Stats in SSL. After how he beat TY Innovation is certainly possible in GSL.

How about Stats? Already in the SSL final and in the GSL semi final. That's incredible. Having the best year ever.

Dark plays Dear in a few hours. If he wins that he will play classic on the 11th.

His match with Inno is on the 9th, Fri.

He's doing it mates. He's on to the semi final. Looked dicey in the first 2 games but made some adjustments and dominated after that.

Seeing that it is an all Protoss affair with Classic next and then Stats if he wins, preparation should be no problem. He can focus entirely on Innovation and Terran for the next 2 days.

If he beats Classic, Stats will be in a comfortable position. He can study so many games...

He's safe, nobody outside the top 8 can overtake him.

This was more about Innovation's incredible play than Dark's lack of incredible play. Dark was very resilient and resourceful especially in that third game. Innovation might have been the only player in the world who could have beaten Dark that day.

Inno starts out with air attacks to force Dark into Hydras. Then he goes full mech which overpowers a Hydra army.

You could criticize Dark's aversion to Muta's which could have won him game 7. Inno had no marines and just a few Thors and Vikings. 25 Mutas could have given him air superiority and done a number on those tanks turning the tide in his favor.

It was also unusual to see a 7 game series in which the Zerg player doesn't at least one time try a Zerg run by attack or early Roach push. Inno put Dark on the defensive all series so give him credit. That's atypical of Inno to do bunker rushes.
