If you don't recommend that game because the skill level was low then you shouldn't be watching Starcraft 2 at all - the skill level right now is laughable compared to what it will be when people have more experience and laughable when compared to the skill level of CS 1.6, Brood War and Quake Live players. Um the skill level is low compared to other SC2 games? | ||

Blink stalkers can trade quite effectively, even if the Zerg manages to overwhelm them eventually. In the end, it forces Z to continually produce and you can wear him down. So while the execution was lacking at points, I think the overall concept was valid. I think Honguns play was good, and he clearly was just using an unconventional strategy that Tastosis didn't agree with, but i wouldn't say it was highest level either, mostly due to zenios part, who was clearly struggling with an awkward situation, but he was definitely engaging a lot when he shouldn't i.e. kiting chargelots and then chasing them back to their huge freaking army! he was getting free kills and then decided to push on colli/storms. teh fuck? | ||

There are a lot of high level games where the players don't play as sloppily these days. It's not as high level as BW for sure, but it's high level enough. That game was just WAYYY sloppy. Still thought it was entertaining though. | ||

What HongUn did was try to keep Zenio from taking more than three bases and getting hive tech, by trading armies more cost-efficiently than Zenio could. Then when there was a lull while they both expanded they kept the attacks up while also trying to harass each others economies. If you would rather see a game where both players expand, tech and max out uncontested and then have their armies clash once or twice to see who wins, then go ahead. I prefer to see a game of constant action and multi-tasking. Zenio from taking three bases? The correct response to a Protoss FE is taking three bases... He took a third far far far away and he saw Toss Air at Zenios natural expansion. Should of made one more spore at his far far away expansion. Like I said, poor defending, poor decisions, poor everytthing. | ||

But Nestea is much better. + Show Spoiler + If Nestea were in sens position in NASL he would have been thorough and scouted vrays and ended up winning. just one small example Nestea is better, but Tasteles said that if P played like that against Nestea, he would get crushed, and Artosis pipped in that if he did that against Sen the same thing would happen. Implying that Sen and Nestea are on a level above Zenio. Which I would agree with. | ||
