People like a David vs. Goliath story, and people perceive ZvP as one. David vs. Goliath is only memorable when David wins. | ||

No matter how much larger zerg's food count is, the protoss death ball and turtling can curcumvent with ease, zerg are pushed to commit to extremely creative plays and i hope this meta-game shifts continually where zerg can finally figure out a smooth way of countering the turtling protoss voids/colo play. It allows lower tier players like Hasu and TT1 to appear high tier, but nonetheless a win is a win, and that's how the game should be played, there's morals behind it, simply exploiting your strengths and opponent's weaknesses. Well played Morrow, saw some excellent zerg agression. To Hasu, good for you. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

Most protoss have PvZ figure out while zerg don't know how the fuck play this match-up. FFE / 3gate sentry expand into Colossus play is not the hardest thing to pull off against player who are strungling in this match-up. | ||

You wouldn't see him take such huge risks against terran at least. Even his banelingbusts are sort of economical. Also consider he's been playing MC 6 times now recently and he's down 1-5, I think he just came to the conclusion that he needs to be super aggressive and try forcing the protoss to make a mistake. If you've seen any of his interviews lately you kinda notice that he's almost becoming like idra, on the verge of giving up against protoss entirely. I'm surprised he didn't do any onebase roach all-ins today. I guess it would've been too obvious. | ||

He did stomp ClouD in the finals there with some epic voidray control and made cloud QQ quite a bit in the after match interview :X | ||

This statement is as outrageous as zergs saying "zerg has no options zvp" There are thousands of ways to play that haven't been tried or are rarely used. I'm just getting a little bored of the "passive protoss" and the "cheesing protoss." I want to see the "macro-oriented harrassing protoss." That will be when people recommend the games that protoss wins. | ||

Beacuse every game Hasu won it was pretty much your standard PvZ, deathball etc. Not complaining about balance or Hasuobs but in general the deathball is pretty boring. Zergs nowadays is pushed to diversity to counter it and morrow did so in the games he won using drops and risky pushes and so on. | ||
