It's not unbeatable but no one has found a hard counter yet, which makes all of these "lol just go pool first and it's over!" posts a little annoying. i wonder how zerg was able to win back in the days when no one was going hatch first. Pool first doesn't mean you can't die to all-in ok? It's just mean that you can't be bunker rush because you have some zerglings to deny scvs and if you smell a all-in you have to put 1 or 2 spine crawler. Before the nerf of the 2-gate opening it was the same problem, you had to put at least one spine crawler to not die to a spam zealot from 2 gate. | ||

Double rax pressure is a legitimately strong opening against any currently widely used Zerg build and it's not as simple as just "herp derp, pool first and win," as anyone who was watching Idra's stream today will attest (pool first, owned by marine/scv all ins multiple times). | ||

<Lost Temple> TvZ : 0:1 PvZ : 1:0 < Steppes of War > TvZ 1:0 PvZ 0:1 < Shakuras Plateau > TvZ 0:1 PvZ 0:1 < Blistering Sands > TvZ 1:0 PvZ 1:0 < Xel'Naga Caverns > TvZ 1:0 < Scrap Station > PvZ 1:0 Both Zerg won Shakuras Plateau and both Zerg lost Blistering Sands. Just adding my 3.7 Cents. | ||

You mean that particular "one of the best Terrans in the world" who failed to achieve Code S? (Just kidding) On Topic: Laughing hard at TLO now. Is he going to switch back to terran? | ||

thanks, but looks like they stopped doing that a month ago. Imo they should just have it in the normal VODs of the matches, where it says Set 1 2 3, the next button should just be "match winner interview" | ||

That's Flash: he takes risks, cuts corners, and does whatever possible to win and sometimes it just doesn't work and he looks like a retard in the process. Sometimes it does work and that results in Jaedong getting squished into a pulp by three 14CCs in a row or something similar. Nestea didn't do anything out of the ordinary, just poor preparation really so not even close to the same situation. | ||

Dunno why u had to bring up why zergs hard thats just going to make people troll you, also yes hongun played very well... TSL_Rain not so much but i mean its only 87 grand anyways we as spectators only want to see the most deserving player win, which IMO should be jinro or MC bec they have shown the most solid play out of everyone all season. No he didn't get top4. He got top8... | ||
