Lalush over committed in that game. Well it's not the first time he's done it. When he has the advantage he just starts throwing his units away into the Terran defense.

Lalush is correct, no europe/us zerg stands a chance against good terrans atm, you need to be able to do what fruitdealer does, and that requires insane skill.

Not enough multitasking.. you could see that he was just putting constant aggression on the terran and trying to delay push with infestors, and trying to defend his expos from drops. On top of that he has to inject larva and expand/tech. It's pretty hard to do all this and still spread creep regularly.

Lalush is a very impatient zerg that likes to throw away any advantage he gets, then when the Terran comes back he blames imbalance.

Not trying to flame him, Im just stating his general tendency in threads on TL and inside the game.

Lalush just played badly, throwing units away to try and end it early. Should have sat back, defended, droned up and rolled with hive tech when the T push actually came.

And no, that doesn't take a korean.

Aye, the last game I'd say lalush threw it kinda. I mean he defended against that reaper harass very well which ended in him far ahead. Trying to pound a fortified position like that... esp. with that back bunker owning things up... It felt like he'd have the game in his hands if he had just played passively, spread creep and made sure to be alert against drops.

This is why people think ZvT needs major tweaks: Zerg while staying alive,not letting Terran play safe NEEDS to spread creep. There were many discussions about creep. People are starting to think that creep is more of handicap,than a proper help. All those things take a lot of APM. Also,I think those Ultras with a bit more lings and 5~ roaches could turn the tables,sadly... 3-0.

I guess it's too bad that Select has the Korean blood advantage over him then.

Lalush should take a lesson from off-race Sjow on creep spread. Did you see his insane creep spread in his matches?

Select played very well, but the first couple of matches must have been very disheartening for Lalush. He handled most of Select's harassment very well and he still was behind. It's so hard to get ahead as zerg unless you are a superman like Fruitdealer.
