In fact its the EXACT opposite on Teamliquid. There is such a strong Zerg bias its crazy. Everyone is calling this series exciting and all that, but in reality it was just a zerg using two 2 base timing pushes against a greedy Terran. Boring and unexciting, there was no difference between these type of games and the one MC just played in the GSL finals yet those were considered dull games? | ||

It turns the early game into a coinflip. People calling Morrow "hyper aggressive" or thinking he played well are wrong because anyone, even a silver league player, can pull it off. This just shows how this game is too much about chances and all in and not as skill centered as WC3 and SCBW. I'm very disappointed at SC2. WHY should it be Coinflip if the Zerg can do it in RESPONSE to an FE ? I don't understand. | ||

Thats the reason the 4 gate worked - it was brilliant play and simply outsmarted by HasuObs - not a simple build order win. I disagree Carlo. Obviously its insanely strong since its a strategy that deals damage no matter what, but on the first hand its something that is scoutable and on the other hand it was JinrO's fault. He went command center first without any attempt on scanning what MorroW does nor did he build 1 or even 2 bunkers which you can easily do without being behind. He even used the barracks in front to upgrade stim - which he could change and use a barracks in the back to upgrade stimpack. Rushing to medivacs is far inferior even though it gives you drop ability than rushing to hellions or tanks. MorroW did simply abuse the lack of scouting and went for an aggressive build which can lead to a quick win or loss - but in a tournament like TSL you also have to cut corners. In game 2 he was behind due to the bunkerrush and didn't even allin banelingbust - he tried to kind of equal the game out but pulled back when he saw it won't work. So I totally understand that you are saying its a super strong strategy, but its by no means a coinflip because you can actually scout it without being behind. | ||

The better player takes the opportunity to win when it presents itself to said player. MorroW saw a chance and went for it. Sheesh. Think about it. | ||

Because FE is the only thing you can do right now against zerg. 1 base openings except 2 rax into cc simply don't work anymore because of the bigger maps and zerg players getting better at managing larva. | ||
