Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service.

Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread. Cut it out.

I love the fact that Naniwa is not trying to do some all-in/cheesy moves. He is playing straight up macro games

he is showing why if you don't chese or do a timing atack (all in) you just lose vs zerg

I kind of agree. It shows Protoss can't win in a straight up macro game. You need to harass, you cannot let Zerg macro like that.

No it shows that Naniwa fell behind significantly in economy and paid the price...

What do you suggest Naniwa doing? Taking a 3rd so he dies even earlier?

Perhaps doing something during the time Losira is making 1231231 drones ?? You can safely get a third up around the same time as a zerg if he just sits there and masses drones like losira is doing.

Naniwa would benefit from training in Korea, but if he doesn't place top 4 he won't get the seed into Code A so it'll be tough to go.

He is pretty much already guaranteed Code A invite since Idra/MMA/Losira are also in top 6 with him.

Naniwa clearly messed up in Game 2. I'll say it again. He was on tilt.


He played fine. What did you expect him to do? His FFs were amazing, just got outmacroed by one of the best Zerg in the world. All the small things just added up

1) Losira scouting the 3rd and 4th gas timings -> eliminated air and DTs as a possibility. This allowed Losira to really go late lair just to mass up on the drones.

2) The ling runbys that slowed Naniwa down

3) Not allowing Naniwa to scout Losira at all (till the obs popped), while Losira got good scouting info on Naniwa.

Nexus first you have to attack off two bases v Z IMO. Have to at least try to hurt them or it'll just become macrofest. I think he was anticipating Losira doing his ling roach attack.

How can you defeat a zerg who macro's that well? Early pressure is hard because of the raw number of units zerg can get out at any time plus they have the fastest units in the game (speedlings) so the threat of counters are always there. I don't know how toss can beat zerg now.

forcing zerg to make units hurts their economy, remember

Wow.

And you can't even say it's due to any of the buffs, Losira just won with mass roach/ling.

If Naniwa can't beat Losira... wow. Guess I have to cross him off the contenders list for top contenders.

1) Losira
2) MC
3) Idra
4) MMA
5) July

The contenders.

roaches got a nice range buff (:

I think zergs just have that early expand style completely figured out, the expansion @5min mark, mass drones and low tier in exchange for a strong mid game while protoss is still building up.

And protoss just doesn't have an anwser for that yet.

I'll be using the +1 melee ling style from now on. It's amazing how with Tier 1 units he's able to counter both the broken colossus and the no skill F spam sentries. Very versatile too.

Yeah, completely dominating the Dallas champion is no big deal. Making him look like a scrubbins Masters player... no big deal.

I was really rooting for Nani, though. =\

This.


That's what's impressive. He made it look so easy against Naniwa. Not against a random scrub, but against Naniwa.

Seems like every PvZ looks the same nowadays. Everything seems equal at around 100 supply mark, but then Zerg just explodes and gains like 70 supply lead. I dunno what to think about this, seen many games unfolding like that (idra vs mc, losira vs nani etc.). Seems like even perfect forcefields can't save toss players.

A lot of strange choices by Nani... really early +1 attack but did nothing with it, rushed to colossus and did nothing with them, Losira was left free to drone for ever and then just roll over what Nani had with a crap load of zerglings and roaches with good creep spread

A move? He was microing all that time. He did dual attacks, kept on microing everything during that time.

He just did a crazy strategy that involved 3 base drone pumping into just a bunch of roach lings. I mean, he had 4 hatcheries BEFORE he had his lair. How crazy is that!

During the entire time he was attacking he kept macroing, and reinforcements just kept on swarming in. His entire strategy was beautiful.

It really wasn't. I'm not gonna detract from Losira here because he DID completely outplay Naniwa, but his play was anything but beautiful.

Idra against MC was beautiful. This was standard.
