Firslty, this happened over the last week, so it's only one week old. Secondly, this is the Weekly Stats Report which implies a report that happens once a week. It would be silly to have it happen in the middle of the week, so it naturally happens at the end of each week. Finally, where did I call it breaking news? This column has always been a weekly stats report which focuses on events that happened over the last week, so it's not possible for it to be breaking news. I don't know. Nice job on posting a non-sensical reply here. | ||

Look at trends on bluestorm before the update, say from the turn of the year through till its change; Record: TvZ: 5-13 (27.8%) | ZvP: 5-8 (38.5%) | PvT: 6-11 (35.3%) From this we already see protoss starting to take the advantage over Zerg... The new switch simply reflects the latter trends of the map - and yes that little bit of difference has changed the dynamics of ZvT on it, and well the stats are about 50% T  so no need to worry there | ||

Nope, I am talking about Hyuk  . He's quite young but with T1 doing so well lately I think he can improve fast (especially with some great Protosses to spar against ^^).Watch Hyuk's game against free at T1 vs. Hanbit to see why he is awesome. edit: by "young" I mean in terms of game experience, not age  . | ||

Jaedong is imo on its way to savior very soon, Twins can win or lose to anyone, July with soul behind his back might step up to challange of taking osl, but other than that don't mind the maps, there are no zergs atleast in osl who can go all the way. nah, jaedong still has the edge, its just a couple of sloppy plays vs T's, if you saw his latest games with z and p, he is still the best zerg around | ||

With ZvT however, it seems that so many terrans have learned to use the SK to great effect, and zerg really has no good counters right now. I think this has gone on for quite a while, but zerg had Jaedong, who still won quite a lot. It seems to me, however, that Jaedong won more due to beastly mechanics, both micro and macro, than due to a refinement of strategies. So even when he was dominant, he didn't really have a style that other zerg could copy and benefit from, and zerg play as a whole didn't evolve. Savior, on the other hand, besides his incredible game-sense, also evolved zerg play as a whole. I think that is what zerg need atm, a new strong player that can develop an easy copyable strat that stops terran from "auto-winning" once they have enough vessels. | ||
