hongun botched his defenses in the first game, in the 2nd one the nexus first was unnecessary. not much else to it, tbh

I didn't watch the games but did July really send all his drones both games as an all in (proper definition) a la BBB? Would appreciate confirmation!

I don't agree with the "6 pool failed". 6 pools will always have this result, it nearly never wins the game, but as long as it prevent the protoss expo, kills a pylon and a forge and contain the P until he has a gate and some units, it's easy to transition out of it as you have an early queen.


Huho, Hongun nexus first exactly like genius did on this map, and july killed him with a bane bust.

I agree. losing RIGHT AWAY to a 6 pool should rarely happen, which is why i said its forgiving, it's kind of a viable opening vs P, weirdly enough.

Exactly ^^ I nearly wrote that it could be a standard opening but didn't because I feared the flames, but I think it.

It's not viable against a normal, non fast expand, build. Then it is (or should be), autoloss.

It can work against forge fast expand, and is pretty much win against nexus first.

What are u talking about? MVP probably the best player at the moment in RO8. The semi-finals are okay for him yes, but only if he beats MVP, which i don't give him more than 10% chance to do. Also the finals he can face Polt. 'Nuff said.

It's funny because MVP is considered kind of a one man team with DRG, but they are the team with the most players left in code S

people cheer when July 1 bases, but crucify Ts when they 1 base. double standards.

Because 1 base Z is generally terrible and usually loses...thus seeing it succeed is anomalous and impressive. The same cannot be said of T. 1 base T is common and very proven. Think past simple comparisons in the future please.

July may cheese, but he does it when 98% of other Zerg's play standard. How often do you see 6 pools in pro games, much less ones that win? Hardly ever. July has a completely unique style for playing Zerg, and even if it's cheesy, it's beautiful because it's so much different than what all the other Zergs do. It's waaayyyyyy more rare to see Zerg's like July than the other 1 base all-iners from T and P.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Absolutely correct. Generally, one base zerg is creative, one base terran is abusive.


Uhm..did you forget all the baneling busts and roach/ling all-in of previous seasons? People have such double standards. Did you forget how angry you were when this style completely failed against solid players like MC?

Zergs do that because of protoss greed... your point is moot.
Standard.

What is up with DoA and calling everything all-in?

6 pool and 7 roach rush isnt all in?

Didn't seem all in at all against a forge fast expand. 6 pool canceled the fast expand out and the roach rush countered it perfectly. July could have walked home after killing the Nexus and be perfectly fine.
