I thought they were pretty decent games, Jungle Basin is a difficult map for ZvP so I can understand why TheWind did the Nydus play The first game nydus did good because it was on an appropriate map to do so coupled with the risky build that the protoss was going with, which was a little lucky because it allowed him to win the game right there instead of just doing some damage. But it was just a poor idea on jungle basin, first of all a cheesy tactic was somewhat expected exactly because of jungle basin being a terrible zvp map, then the fact that he had tried the same strategy 2 games ago, plus the base being much smaller in jungle basin than in lost temple to the extent of it being almost impossible to sneak in a nydus inside vs an alert opponent, because virtually all of the terrain was in sight. A very low chance of that working, and he went all-in on it. And there isn't much to say about the second game, pretty dull other than reinforcing the thought that a simple 4gate all-in can still work at the highest level of play. | ||

It was super unfortunate we didn't get to see Tester's PvZ, I want to see what he has been doing. The 4 gate was definitely funny though I thought both went cheese. Tester with forge, cannon and teching to stargate. TheWind with Nydus. I would call Nydus a reaction to forge, cannon teching. | ||
