This is pretty much how you play zvz, try to gain an early economic edge either with hatch first or early ling attacks killing drones and queens and then overwhelm your opponent with roaches. If the game moves beyond that it turns into a fairly interesting mu with burrowed infestors harassing expansions and late game brood lords but 80% of zvz's end with the roach spammage, 15% end with early ling/bling, and the remaining 5% become interesting.

Violet never impressed me as a wc3 pro, even tho he had very strong results.
He struck me as a robotic player, we will see how he does in sc2.

Idra hates him because he's a protoss, not his ego.

It's not a protoss thing. It's pretty personal.

I think HuK being toss only cemented IdrA's hatred.

Hmm, not sure the term "baneling bust" is quite appropriate for a ZvZ

Idra hates him because of abusive gimmicky builds he does to him(I.E cannon rushing his Fast Expands).

Kyrix morphing a baneling nest for some quick banelings. Also stopped drone production completely. Going for a baneling all-in.

Poor MMA, you could tell he got so flustered from that mistake against MKP that he never fully recovered. He was visibly so upset, that hurt.

Yeah. I really felt bad for him. HuK deserved the win today and it's awesome that he was victorious against all expectations but I still feel like MMA is the better player

Yeah feel so bad for MMA. Pressure obviously got to him, because he is definitely talented enough to do well in Code S. Hopefully he'll get his confidence back by sniping some big names again in the next GSTL.
