sixjaxMajor just exposed basically every flaw in Spanishiwa's style and build order. I think we can settle down on the hype already.

that queens are slow as shit, cost 150 mins, and do next to no damage.

I mean ... it's already been discussed by much better players than me (Darkforce, idra, etc.).

Basically no scouting information the last 2 games.
Ghosts > Infestor + Queen.
Spanishiwa favors an entirely immobile army and couldn't defend drops well enough.
Can't build enough spines because if you do, you're losing the econ advantage in the build.

Again though, I'm only a gold player, go look at posts by Darkforce and listen to idra talk about the build. Take what they have to say way more seriously than anything I type because I'm an over the hill gamer.

Well, those hellions won't always do that much damage. But good to see that this hype might get a halt now.

And zero map control or way to deny a very early expo

props to Terran/Kitty/Princess (they are all the same right?) he worked out how to defeat this build - that has had everyone so excited for weeks - by just watching some replays.

Spanishiwa apparently did not have an alternative strategy ready, his response to the losses were to increase the intensity of his build which increased the speed at which it failed.

Well i think there are several people who don't give him credit for his GM rank just because of what people think about his personality. I'd never seen him play till now. Looked sharp, really don't have much against him because i didn't follow what his problems/drama was.

It's important to note that top Zergs like Sheth struggle with Major from time to time as well. Major's multitasking and harass ability is impressive. Hard to handle for any Zerg!

Doesn't he cheese Sheth a lot though?

But you make a very good point. Major is everywhere at once. Spanishiwa isn't a mechanically strong player and just couldn't handle all the pressure Major was putting on.

Artosis understands the principle of not changing your handle. Now he just has to get it into this little weirdo's head...

Spanishwa said he wants the terran to defend by using Nyduses because with lack of multitasking you can't be aggressive at the same time (so he can drone, tech up, get the advantage basically).

Unfortunately it doesn't work versus someone who has the mechanics of MajOr.
