Sen's play is really great. The only zerg that I've seen be that aggressive, and correct me if there's someone I'm forgetting, is Dimaga.


Yeah but sadly all the games I've seen of Dimaga he either lost or won through a baneling bust all-in. Sen's play seems more stable than that.

People said the zerg rush from BW is dead in SC2, but I have never seen a zerg rush in BW as scary as a Sen Roachling rush in this game!

Watch Dimaga Vs WhiteRa on Blistering Sands. He opens up with a lot of aggression, then expands twice, and eventually has enough stuff to break WhiteRa's front.

In my opinion, it's more like Dimaga for (pure-ish) aggression. Idra for pure macro. Sen is a great midpoint for both.

Depends on the game, but I agree.

He played zerg earlier but are now playing his second as terran.

As a side note I find it funny how he constantly are tabbing out while playing to check up on stuff.

I have to agree. The games were amazing.

The thing that kind of bothered me though was that Sen had to have amazing control. Super stellar control. Flanking, feinting, overlord sac'ing, baneling dropping all to counter terrans 1a2a siege play. Then, the terran's push was still very nearly successful.

Something seems a bit wrong about that.

I think Idra still has the best understanding of all the Zerg matchups of all the Zerg players on the scene at this point in time (foreigner-wise).

Sen is a foreigner too. And if you think mech is 1a2a, you haven't played mech. It's ALL about positioning and protecting your units with your tanks and so on. It's slow, so it doesn't take too much in the way of fast micro, but position is everything in mech.

lol sen got denied expo by a probe on DO so hes like ok Im putting my hatch outside your main and make spiens and lings

didnt work though. =)


Just watched that one. That game was amazing... I feel like he could have won if he had gotten some banelings, especially when he lured the toss army away with a small group of lings and tried to backstab but ran into the double pylon wall at the top of the ramp.


Yeah I know crazy!. Hatch lured out the units and he could get in early as well before the dual pylon. A few more lings in there, a few banes or smth could have tipped the game in his favor. Would be crazy if he'd won like that but it was actually kinda close

If you guys think Sen is God's magnum opus now, then wait til you see Jaedong, Calm, Zero play...And that's just Zerg.

SEn is essentially my favorite foreign Zerg player (from SC1). Taiwanese pride.

Truth.

TLO saying he's never lost is pretty much the same thing as saying he's unstoppable yea? Either way, Sen's definitely in contention for best Zerg in SC2 as of right now.


priceless.

I guess there is lesson to be learned, though. on't snap on someone that misquoted someone else cuz someone else will then misquote and make fun of you.


edit: watching sen's stream right now. it's offline, but am finally getting to watch a zerg that can beat aggressive terrans.
