Granted, I thought the way Alicia held off the rush with those perfect forcefields pretty entertaining, but both games were extremely one-sided and were just Losira facerolling Alicia with a build he couldn't handle. Well those games were pretty hyped up, so I guess that's part of why they are recommended and game1 was really great until after the rush Alica just let Losira Drone Up and Tech Up as much as he wanted. game2 was just a straight up BO-loss so I dont think it is really entertaining... | ||

You can discredit anything if you try hard enough. Fact is zvp is not hopelessly imbalanced like many zerg would have you believe. | ||

Personnaly I recommended them because I thought Losira would get steamrolled and that would be just another frustrating to watch ZvP, then Losira played zerg like I love to see zerg played and steamrolled Alicia so I was not frustrated :D | ||

Not "hopelessly", but certainly a significant degree of imbalance. I think people are looking at this the wrong way. They may not be recomended because they were the most exciting, but a game where Zerg wins by trying something (relatively) out of standard should be recommended if only for Zerg to learn a few things. | ||

It would be cool but I highly doubt that he will win against LosirA or NesTea in a ZvZ :/. NaDa would probably be on final if he beats TOP, cuz I don't see Virus/Sangho/Killer beat him, maybe Clide. | ||

Losira has successful pressure with lots of early 2 base ling/roach and gets a decent lead with it then Alicia makes a mistake and instead of turtling, moves out with a small stalker/immortal/sentry force to try to take down Losira's 4th. the end result is the 4th not being taken down, most of Alicia's force dieing, and Alicia becoming very behind. Losira finishes the game with baneling drops which is nice to see, but the game itself felt pretty average to me. Losira played well. Alicia did not play well. nothing really amazing happened in the game unless you're so down on ZvP that anytime a Zerg beats a Protoss is cause for celebration. | ||

That's something you hardly expect from the most hardcore zerg whiners after these games but certainly not from him oO Did you watch the games? Losira destroyed him. | ||

sC is doing better than I thought he would. I thought Polt would destroy him. Perhaps I have underestimated him. | ||

It's also possible that protosses could be wiped out of the ro8 for both code S and A. Who would've thought that? | ||

So happy with the Nada and Losira results though! It's also possible that protosses could be wiped out of the ro8 for both code S and A. Who would've thought that? For code A it was really predictable (there were A LOT of monstruous terrans) but for code S I doubt anyone predicted MC, Genius, San, Alicia to fall that early. By the way it'll be very interesting to see who is finally the zerg king between LosirA, NesTea and July (or FruitDealer but I doubt he'll beat NesTea in ZvZ...) | ||

As for the whole Losira/Alicia debate, personally I think Alicia is overrated thanks to Artosis but w/e. Don't use a LR thread to argue a MU is imbalanced or balance. Just make a seperate (and thought out) thread please | ||
