Uh oh, I think Flash is supposed to go out on the 4th set but KT might already lose by then.

I don't know, but he did in SPL finals vs some SKT toss (not bisu or best). He was on 4 base, dug in and looking good, but when the P moves out to attack the main he walks right in since ensnare kinda blows.


ensare is very rarely used though unless your zero as the other guy pointed out lol


Which makes his decision to do it all the more stupid. Thats what I'm saying.

I hope someone can help me understand it since I know shit about BW.

Didn't Zerg have a decent lead? He denied the third for a long time, and I saw corsairs getting destroyed by scourge. But all of the sudden, Bisu had a supply lead and he had won the air battle. What was the tipping point in this game?

Yep P have obs but since the Zerg made NO lurker there is no point getting an ob.

yup, but that's the thing you cannot rely on just lurkers. JD was too late to the dance against BeSt and CH followed suit. s;

P on 2 vs Z on 4 is acceptable to P for awhile. Micro and action not building lurkers won it for Bisu.

Also, supply leads mean less in BW.

because the 3rd was the natural of another main, the 4th was defended by the defenses at the third. It was safe, Action just got greedy (as all zergs do) and was expecting bisu to attack either sooner with a handful of zealots, or much later after taking a third.

As another Noob, I would guess that one Dragoon-attack was the tipping point.

precisely. he made no mention of our good friend defilers though. That's what I was trying to get at. D=

If P doesn't build corsairs or if you keep them to a low count via hydra scourge then its good to get mutalisks as well to pick off templars.

Zerg has more bases are common. Although Action did a good job delay the third but his army was poor with pure ling and some muta.
Zerg need lurker to hold the timing Protoss push off and just like what you just saw. Zerg try to turlte but did an half ass job. Bisu won a very easy game, I don't know why Action played this bad

Zerg made mutas for some reason, instead of say, lurkers, which was curious. I thought Action(the zerg) was going for a defensive strategy by opting for 4 base and teching hard. At this point zerg just needs to hold. It seems that Bisu hit some timing that Action didn't anticipate.

Anyways, back to the point about mutas. Usually the purpose of mutas in ZvP after you've gained air control and to get rid of high templar on the ground(which you can snipe). Generally Z will beat P straight up without storm, so this is quite important. However, the weird thing was that bisu didn't really research storm for a long time, and was replenishing his sairs(something that action saw), meaning that having mutas aren't going to be worth much. Instead of those 9-11 mutas action had, he could have had say, 7 lurkers to defend.

Also, Action got burrow for some reason, but it didn't seem to work.

Kind of an odd game, but I think it's mostly Action failing.

Bisu won because Actions play didn't make any fucking sense at all. 4 Base turtle zerg is a strong style, but you can't fucking do it while only making burrowed lings. >____________________<
