wtf dual sight is heavily zerg favored why did nani pick this?

And it is DRG his favorite map.

But the Third is hard to keep for Z, don't know.

shouldnt you go void ray there? No way drg can connect his creep and have his queens positioned in time.

Bit late to try and go void ray after you have gone 4gate and your opponent already has the gold.

Naniwa saw the gold hatch long before he had to decide.
My strategy is to fork people.

It's funny you can't even troll right, shift+forcefields would get you instantly killed.

I think the appropriate response for any hidden base is to use a Void Ray opener, whether it be after you expand or not. The lack of creep connecting the bases makes it too hard for the Zerg player to defend (lack of Queen mobility).


When I saw the early double gas I could have swore he was going Two Stargate Void. Would have fucking destroyed that build from DRG. Poor decision making from Naniwa.

So what you are saying is.... DESTRUCTIBLE ROCKS?


lolol yes plz

That's not true, a 4gate just isn't the right way to punish it. Going for a build which forces a zerg to stay low on drones when he has a base which rewards being low on drones = bad decision.


Uh, the gold gives even more benefit if he gets more drones...

It saturates faster but it doesn't give more benefit. It's forces the Z to be super spread so stargate play is a much better 'punishment' (you can expand behind it if you want). Even dt into an archon/gateway push is a much better followup than a 4gate. A 4gate is literally the best response to see from the zergs perspective.

wh...the...what are you talking about


Travis is the same guy that thought the wzp build (3roach speedling rush) was unfair because he had to build a cannon. Pay no mind to him.

Balance whine during these tournaments is getting really really old. I wish people would just watch the games and realize that it takes time to learn the proper response to every possible opening in this game.


Well said, let's just enjoy these games.

Is Naniwa going to be this MLG's Select? If he loses again here I can't imagine him making it out of the group with a positive winrate and he does get tilted easily.

sarcasm? I can't tell.


It's not sarcasm.1 base protoss is so bad against zerg these days that even if you scout something like this you can't really punish it effectively.Ling speed finishes=your dead.

A Stargate rush would be brilliant against a Zerg whose bases are split like that.


Even if you kill the hatch,which you wont.Than you have a 1 base zerg vs one base toss and what than?You still cant kill him.
