I think nerves combined with the almost impossible to scout builds used by this terran got the best of him....its extremely easy to die to these kind of timing builds, that's starcraft 2 for you, it all happens a lot faster than it did in sc1 and you need almost psyhic abilities to consistently win in this game..,,and that's why you see so many upsets. Yeah, but the hatch before pool in game 1 was a bad decision any way you slice it. Seemed like Haypro is really out of touch with the state of the metagame. In fact, all terrans have been doing in this tournament against zerg is punish them for greedy openers. | ||

They're almost purely reactionary and passive, that's why Kyrix is so famous for his aggressive style. | ||

I'm not making a claim about balance, but I think due to the current metagame Terran WILL win this season of the GSL. Not because the 2 rax is unstoppable, but because right now if you're terran you can make them play your game for the first ten minutes of the game. You can put up two barracks so they are forced to put up a baneling nest. They put up a baneling nest so they're gonna be a little slower on their lair. They're slower on their lair so you can get some solid kills with a cloaked banshee. You can diminsh their income with the banshees so they'll need to spend more larva on drones to replenish. They're spending more larva on drones which means they have a smaller army than you therefore you can win. My logic could be WAY off here, but that's the way Tasteosis seems to be saying these games will play out and it looks like that's what's been happening. I'd very much appreciate your guy's thoughts on this. | ||

No, he should've brought every godamn unit he had in the game. Every worker and overlord, just fucking manpile those terrans. Man I really hoped for him, but 3 roaches... that's just...  | ||
