If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

Just have to comment how entertaining it is to watch Socke, he's so good. <3 Not trying to take anything away from Dimaga, he's awesome as well.

I love the protoss definition of "perfect control" he moved in, poked out for a second and a-moved back in ...


Zerg QQ :D its sooo funny


Meh, deathballs by toss are just really good. I love when toss do amazing FF or blink micro or something but calling an a-move with a slight retreat when he sees a baneling drop "perfect control" is an insult to players like MC and their control.

Except that was very amazing control. Not a single Colossus was able to get sniped, not a single hole in the FF and not a single baneling managed to hit a Stalker. It is about engaging and being able to push before Zerg delays you too much, Socke did that perfectly, Dimaga had to by time but Socke just rolled right through.

Though pretty hilarious Zerg are crying since they have been winning 90% of PvZ's lately


A couple of points:
- Sniping colossi? With the roaches or the lings ? The fact is there are no corruptors present, I wouldn't expect a single colossus to go down when they outrange the roaches 9 to 4. That really is a composition advantage, no some mad micro.
- There actually were holes in the FF but those just allow the Zerg units to trickle in and die better, as long as Zerg can't advance en masse the forcefields are effective. Again though, not exactly perfect control (unlike some things we had seen by MC).
- As for banelings on the stalker, he hit blink once when he saw a cloud of overlords ... I'm pretty sure the ability to blink back the whole stalker army once is something most masters protoss have.

Socke played well by having good upgrades and a very good composition (more importantly Dimaga's composition was severely lacking corruptors or infestors and he was supply capped with a lot of roaches which is always terrible). Let's not get carried away calling his control anything special, let alone perfect.

- When you have avoid Baneling drops it leaves your Colossus vulnerable to counters, especially in that area that is super open where Roaches can flood in through the gold. Watch some of Naniwas, XioaT's or MC's game, even players with such ridiculous control and APM have difficult stopping their Colossus from put in a vulnerable postion against Banedrops

- There were no holes that allowed a huge flood, it was tiny holes, which is expected, you can't perfectly connect them but there were no holes where it counted. The brilliant thing was how fast they went down and how fast Socke kept advancing despite his great FF usage

- Again, watch any Baneling play these days, just because you have blink doesn't mean they are immune to baneling drops, they are still super vulnerable. He was able to keep all of his Sentry/Colossus alive through blinks all on top of Focus Firing Hydra with Colossus.

Socke was doing 50 things in 0.25seconds

I guess if you don't play this game it doesn't look impressive, but look at Day[9]'s reaction and how impressed he was at the end, if you actually play this game and aren't in wood league you realize it isn't as easy to do as it looks.
