Oh the Irony. I still remember just one and a half month ago when zerg was having trouble with toss. Toss was like trying this and that, use this tactic anethat tactic and all I saw from zerg was OP void ray/colossus and OP Sentry. How the tables have turned on them, makes me smile on the inside.

I bet the same zergs that are saying "its hard to deal but no worries you can so try this and that" will start the ff imba thread as soon as MC plays a Zerg.


LOL Ill even throw in the best zerg whiner line "show me a replay where a terran and a zerg of EQUAL SKILL where terran was able to beat zerg when zerg has gone broodlord infest corruptor"

HINT: there is no winning that argument.

Congratz to morrow, I liked him as a terran but I loved NADA more .

Those were some great games though I am somewhat disappointed that we didn't see Ghosts. If those marines couldn't be fungaled they are not affected by corruptors and destroy broodlords.

This matchup is still being worked on by both sides and from some recent games vikings are not the only alternative for countering broodlords, ghosts deal with infestors and consequently enable marines to kill the broodlords (or kill the corruptors that are trying to kill the vikings that are killing the broodlords). I am not sure why Nada went for thors as they do very poorly against armored air, 2 ghosts for each of those thors may have done much better (cloak, emp, then run in the marines and start sniping).

I remember a thread yesterday about how emp vs mass infestor was OP.

I hope we see zergs using neural parasite on ghosts to EMP all the ghosts soon.

Nada played like shit...just sat back and let morrow get like 6 bases. Literally moved out of his base like twice in the last two games. Morrows play wasnt really anything special...just decent macro play that any pro zerg couldve executed with zero pressure on them.

Look - i never post, but what the hell is going on with NASL? i paid my $25 and i have to sit and watch mclovin and the fat kid from superbad do horrible commentary? They dont even remember what happened during the game and always sum it up completely wrong. and who the hell are they to tell these players what they should have done? according to their summary and analysis of the games they JUST WATCHED they shouldnt help with the single player let alone tell a pro what he SHOULD have done

Where the hell are InControl and Gretorp? Gretorp is always high and incontrol takes care of business. Thats what i paid my $25 for

Cut it out NASL, cut it out

Everyone is talking late game here. Terran has to harass or make major mid game pushes or its over.


Zerg has to harass the Protoss too. It's part of the game... Do drops, baneling bombs, nydus, small armys to spread them out etc...

That's why Zergs are doing okay against Protoss now instead of getting steamrolled. They've learnt to add new things into their play.

Terran need to learn now. MMA is perfectly capable of taking macro games off Zerg so it obviously can be done...

Yeah true, but Terran supposed to be stronger than Zerg 200 vs 200 not the other way around which seems like it w/ brood/infestor/corruptor combo. That's the difference. According to blizzard 200 vs 200 P>T>Z so of course the weaker have to harass stronger.


Ultra/Crackling/Defiler with scourge support was quite able to deal with a fully operational terran in BW too.
Zerg have good high tech units, they always had. But the fact that they need to have a lot of them ( 1 or 2 infestor/BL is garbage, their power grow with the number) is limitting that.

Terran play vs zerg will always be a game of timings, and how to catch them. Harassing zerg to not let them get a high tech army need to be their main focus.

perfect results in these playoffs so far, Zenio and Morrow, now hopefully this trend will continue and the other guys i'm rooting for to take their rounds manage to advance

Lol these balance arguments are a little ridiculous. Morrow had a massive advantage before he started to go Brood lord / corruptor anyway, and Nada allowed him to establish all of his tech, upgrades, and a huge worker / base count for free. There would have been something wrong if Morrow didn't win this game.

But is a 200/200 of tank/marine/viking supposed to be stronger than a 200/200 of BL/Infestor/Corrupter? I don't think so.


That's not the point. The point is Terran doesn't even HAVE a true strong late-game composition.


Good. Marines are easily massable, hellions are great for harass, dropship harass is strong, and Terran has very strong defensive options. There are plenty of ways to play TvZ, sitting on 3 bases with a tank / turret like and waiting until you're maxed is no longer one of them. I think it's better for the game that Zerg has a lategame composition that's extremely effective but also difficult to tech to. We need something that can actually punish an opponent for doing nothing and abusing the fact that we can never saturate more than 4 bases. Otherwise we get TvZ before the infestor buff, where Terran could turtle with tanks / turrets and a planetary while maxing out even if he got a big econ disadvantage, and there was literally nothing Zerg could do about it other than suicide a muta / ling / baneling army over and over. Then Terran has a 200 / 200 army you can't touch, and you just lose the game.

So yea, Zerg having a viable way to punish a Terran that sits on his ass is a good thing. Also, try using some ghosts ffs. don't just theorycraft with "its difficult" and "its counterable", actually try using them in a variety of games first.

"morrow can only baneling bust vs terran"
ok

"morrow stop toying with nada"
so you mean when im far ahead i shouldnt go for the safe win instead attack and if it fails dont have a backup plan to guarantee my win?

i would never toy with nada. hes pretty much the best terran in the world among with mvp imo (judging from gsl). hes such a nice guy online and in person aswell

"zvt imba"
maybe, but you cant judge it off of these games where nada play on lag and when hes very sleepy. he let me scout whats going on (saw reaper coming, saw the hellions coming, saw the 3rd cc building in the natural) on metal and his early game harasses didnt work out so i ended up ahead alot and after that the game was passive, it should look pretty much like this then. i was just answering to everything i scouted and if you let zerg know whats up theres no reason not to make only drones and right amounts of units to stop it

your goal in tvz is to keep up fairly good army trades while keeping nice economy and surviving zergs rebuild counter attacks. if you keep killing gas units of zerg and force zerg to make units he wont afford 200food infestor broodlord corruptor. its like 200 food colossus voidray, sentry, high templar vs zerg. id like to see a zerg beat that head on lol

so i think a keypart about tvz is not letting zerg figure out shit ur doing, then he must blindly prepare (if hes a safe player) or take risks of not building enough units but then this harass or attack might come and kill u or put u far behind

if i can play tvz in nasl i would. im race picker now for about a week :p

Morrow was fucking sick, he made nada look like a second rate player and/or zerg look OP. 80-100 drones and still never had more than 500 minerals banked until he was maxed, I can't imagine what terran could possible do about that without some successful early or mid game aggression.

I'm still a little confused about the "grand finals"... it will be 10 players? Is that correct?
