Why do people always overhype blink stalker micro? It wasn't even that good, he often blinked back clumps of stalkers, a few of which didn't need to be blinked back yet.

Yu-gi-oh is the last Slayers left, can he rely on the heart of the cards?

Losing overlords during battle like that has even worse effects for Zerg than losing pylons or depots does for Ts and Ps. When Sheth is already scrambling to get enough roaches out to stop the blink stalks, not only is he supply blocked but he also has to spend those precious Larvae to recover the supply.
Terrans and Protoss dont have to block up their production line to remake their depots and pylons but Zerg loses production capabilities temporarily by having to spend larvae on overlords. Sheth not telling his overlords to back the fuck off really cost him the game there

A lot of people are in awe before Puzzle 500 apm but please bear in mind that blink is 10s cooldown iirc. This is not micro intensive. Puzzle was spamming like crazy.

Wolf played yu gi oh before. Lameeee.

It's nothing like the micro that was involved in BW or Warcraft 3. It's not just the micro itself, but to do it while multitasking that's the hard part.
There was no multitasking involved. That's why the blink stalker all in's are even stronger. all you have to do is warp in. Which is not hard.

he was never close. he defended it with the wrong composition and 0 creep (you need to keep the protoss ass home until he has obs)

People who say the blink micro wasn't great are clueless about the game. Dodging Roach shots, and why would you blink 1 by 1 when Sheth isn't focusing down specific targets? You blink groups to create better concave/positioning. Notice how many times the stalkers started out as a clump, then after blinking became a concave.
|
Nestea always gets a lot of spine crawlers and lings rather than a lot of roaches. Losira always gets a macro hatch and a lot more lings (assuming he doesn't just 2base roach ling and kill protoss before this even hits)
They never lost a ZvP Bo3. It's not rocket science to defend this

His control simply isn't good enough to even beat 100 supply with 150, hence why he lost all his overlords (which is what ultimately cost him the game.) the only answer i can see vs this blink is mass spines, but 50 supply up? if the idra vs MC game showed anything either its that you need to be more supply up or catch the toss not paying attention or something.
that kind of supply difference doesn't mean anything when zerg is making roaches anyways
also i don't know how people say he wasnt close to stopping that, I guess they watched a different game than I did

This. And he lost a bunch of stalkers he shouldnt have by not blinking them back when he could have

Thats ridiculously excessive for what was going on; nothing to do at home for the toss since he was all in, and blink micro doesn't take nearly much apm, especially Puzzl'es blink micro (blinking back groups larger than he needed to, and not one by one) I could justify that apm if Puzzle was literally blinking back stalkers 1 by 1 with that many stalkers but jesus...spam moar Puzzle >_> Having to go back to pylon to warpin units, then re-rally them on top of blink micro as well as microing the stalkers that have blink on cooldown, yeah, I could see him hitting 500 APM. There is nothing really to spam, he is not boxing his mineral line, it is just pure micro Uhm no. Do you play protoss? Blink micro is really not that apm intensive. You select a line of stalkers and click backwards, then hit your hotkey for all your stalkers and press a click forwards, rinse and repeat. 730 apm is absurd. He wasn't even showing off that great micro. This is all pretty irrelevant though, it was just me being surprised at the ridiculously excessive spam Someone is clearly mad/jealous. If Sheth had 730 apm you would be praising how insane his apm is. People don't 'spam' 15 minutes into the game.
Yes... they do. I'd say about 300 of the apm was spamming

Blinking back stalkers in the front, even if they arent low on health, is a benefit due to them being able to dodge roach shots. why bother with precision blink micro on low health stalks when you can blink back clumps for additional benefit?
