Odd that the stargate is placed where it can be found by lings and roaches.

Won't be scouted by overlords I guess.

I liked that Morrow tried something else on this map. I wish more Zergs would play ZvP more like Sheth plays it though, with mass ling, infestors and baneling bombs.


Qft. Roach/hydra looks so slumpy, slow and vulnerable against the deathball, I cringe every single time. To me it's just like beating a puppy with a nailed wooden beam. To death.

Infestors, on the other hand, bring the pain, they are a LOT sexier.

why is morrow making such bad decisions in this series? I mean, It's understandable if you do mistakes in micro due to nervousness, but making straight up gold level decisions like expanding late against a forge fast expand? what the?! YOU'RE BETTER THAN THAT MORROW!


He's just doing his most-practiced build when he's one game from being knocked out. I don't blame him for that, but he should be branching away from 14gas14pool, yeah.

After watching spanishiwa's hatch-first play against protoss, seeing morrow go 14 gas almost hurts to watch. It seems so unnecessary and just plain bad.. Against a forge FE protoss you can simply take a VERY quick third.

This. Gaspool against forge first seems like a waste. This is exactly the discussion we had on spanishiwa's thread, he has map control, but for what purpose ? For what concrete gain ? None.

Morrow with gas-pool-speed, Hasu goes Forge-FE. Places canon before gate.

5:33
Hasu takes a fast third gas. Cybercore done for him. He places a stargate at his natural again. Morrow with his standard Evo-chamber before he makes his Lair. Morrow sees the stargate with a ling scout.

Sigh.

Just shoot me.

User was temp banned for this post.

Mods come on, I get that you guys get frustrated and that people say some rude and stupid things, but I have been seeing a few rather inappropriate bans. I mean imagine you're frustration with trolls posts and whining, and embody that in Zerg players for having to watch that. You shouldn't be banning people for watching, and having feelings about the game one way or another. That is what makes Esports grow.


This.

Banning people for merely saying that zvp is boring to watch, or even that zvp is boring to watch because it is a long uphill struggle for the zerg to handle colossi, seems counterproductive. I understand banning people for *bad* posts that reference the metagame, but banning folks for just describing things seems a little over the top.

Hell, one of the official TL threads (one of the previews) had a reference to "how most high-level zergs struggle with zvp currently" -- it's not like this is a viewpoint held only by a bunch of illiterate whiners.

I mean, this match is far less exciting to watch than Boxer vs. Sen, and it's not (only) because of the players. This is a thread for the viewers, and if viewers are permitted to talk about how awesome ZvT and TvT are to watch, shouldn't they be permitted to groan about how boring zvp is?


Because the "it's boring to watch" after _every_single_game_ is clearly passive aggressive balance whine. The trend is the same in EVERY Live report thread, when ever there is something people don't like they resort to calling it boring to try avoid being banned

You shouldn't assume things, it just makes and ass out of u and me.

Morrow so predictable,

being behind from the start because he always goes speedling expand


It's a way to avoid being *way* behind by getting a FE hatch pylon blocked. This is especially relevant on this map where there's only one position your opponent can spawn.

On such a huge macro map with such an easily defended natural? 15 hatch..?


And a protoss going forge first can't apply any pressure or, at the very least, delay the hatchery?

People who don't feel suicidal when their race loses a single game?

So you've never been disappointed because a player you really like lost? What about when Morrow BBusted Jinro 3 times in a row? That didn't bother you at all?


Why would it bother me? Baneling busts aren't unbeatable, and if you're losing to them three times in a row it's your own fault for playing greedy/risky.

Yes, they do -- and every time someone mentions the casters being awesome I have to mention how awesome of a job Hot_Bid is doing at observing, too. We see literally everything important.


You'd have to be quite bad to miss anything if you get to practice the replay.

cannon rush is too strong against that i think...
pool without gas would be an option

If they go forge first, u're just asking to get cannon rush. I really like pool first tho, Idra did it a lot at Dallas vs Protoss


True but that's a worst of the worst situation (they have to go Forge, you have to not be patrolling with drones, they have to decide to pylon you in/cannon rush, etc)

Once the forge goes down, he doesn't want crap running through into his main, and it likely has more HP than Gateways
