I don't think this is true at all and i dont think they the games were really build order losses. His builds just werent very refined and he wasn't prepared for anything out of the ordinary | ||

I think this finals is the true definition of coinflips. They practice together, they're by many considered the best zergs in the world, it's ZvZ, they have amazing ZvZ stats. I have no idea how to do my Liquibets for this one. Might be the first time I actually flip a coin. | ||

Not entirely sure how he might have prevented a baneling bust after that, but still, I think an SCV loitering in your base my be a serious deterrant to even going for an early baneling nest. Still if you go for a risky build, you have to prepare yourself for counters and Byun just didn't. | ||

Clearly, allowing the zerg to drone up too hard (aka no apparent pressure) or doing risky builds that has holes everywhere is not the way to do it. Lol, Byun was constantly dropping when he could and any significant pressure that protoss puts on is an all-in, or is deflected by sporecrawlers. Why are you acting like zergs somehow practice harder than all terrans and protoss? They just discovered the timings of any effective push finally, the most effective ones got nerfed, and now zergs know exactly when to drone to get a big lead, exactly like what happened in Nestea v Hongun. If all the best BW players came to SC2, the zerg players would be unstoppable just like Nestea seems. There are just too many game design flaws. Not even a balance whine, hopefully the design team noticed a lot of stupid things going on in the game that can be easily improved. Too often if you do one thing wrong you immediately lose, for any race. Two burrowed banelings should not be able to completely change a game but it happens all the time. | ||

Though this might not be his fault considering the amount of time he practiced and who he probably practiced with. Lol I doubt he thought losira would go for the roach all in in game 1. Game 2 was his mistake, bringing all those scvs for basically nothing, so that was his fault. Game 3 he went CC first on a big map on Tal'Darim, but scouted late so he got baneling busted. He tried to vary his builds but got countered in each game. | ||

Its not GOM's fault that one player cant outplay another when they have the same time to prepare.What would you suggest then? GSL every single day, and a season finishes in 2 weeks? Not to mention its total bullshit. In TSL players had significant breaks between playing consecutive matches and it gave us some of the most epic matches in SC2 | ||
