not like zergs who take a 3rd expo before 5 min to roflstomp with 200/200 roach 14 min into the game, no?
hongun botched his defenses in the first game, in the 2nd one the nexus first was unnecessary. not much else to it, tbh

srsly watching July's (yes J-to-the-Y) cheeses is way better than watching terran slowroll everything with 111

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!

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 almost like they're 2 completely different races.

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

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.

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.

Btw,just a question.Do you think July practices his cheese or spares his team mates in practice?

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.
