Thanks a lot! |

I think TvZ is the least interesting and dynamic matchup, with the least units fully utilised, including the mirror matchups.
I still think TvZ is still more fun to watch that say ZvZ or PvP. At least in TvZ it's easy to distinguish who is doing what, unlike in ZvZ when it's mostly tier 1 units fighting each other and then the zerglings get mixed up or PvP with 2 players doing the same strategy to each other using the same units.

Oh there is still a match. I thought it was over :/

1) 4gate into collossi  2) cannon rush 3) dt all in
mothership or carrier play in pvp ? never

i still cant believe mvp is out, just because he is so freaking sick player and i really wanted to see him TvP again. i dont think mvp played very well today and july's build is quite "easily" counterable as seen in game 1, where mvp defended super well but then fucked up, probably because he's ill as well

I dont think it's the matchup as much as it's the players relying on mutas to the point where it becomes a crutch and then when it doesnt work they get overrun by players able to adapt.

Hell yeah cross positions on Shakuras =)
Should make for a great match to emd a great days play

I dont want byun to go against july after seeing how he handled zenio's agressive style, even though I know july is much much better at being agressive but still, I want clide and his cutebear's insecureness to choke against july.

Just wait until people start learning how to play even better on the big macro maps. I'm assuming that eventually you'll see a ton more drop harass, small skirmishes across the map, and more expansions earlier as people get better and get more used to the bigger maps, just like BW TvZ.
I'd agree though that right now it's pretty boring. Just massing up armies at their naturals until they're maxed then colliding (with only a minimal amount of drops and skirmishes) isn't very exciting.

Damn... Artosis is getting even worse... poor guy

Uh cross positions, this is the cherry on the cake of an awesome day of starcraft

NaDa Vs Leenock forgotten T_T! Im putting that down to the sickness, Artosis.

Omfg JULYYYYYYY. Zerg fighting.

I wouldn't be surprised if Artosis drops dead during this game; he sounds 10000 times sicker than he did earlier.

It's pretty funny to see protosses get a dose of their own hated 4gate as well too.
