If Protoss makes 3 nexus in 3 different expansions without any units, and zerg attacks and win- would that be a cheese?

July thought that there was a high chance of success of breaking the protoss defense through the lots of hours of practice...

The longevity of the game does not warrant higher quality of the games,,,

Bronzies will stay in Bronze, July will stay in code s for another season.

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?


Roachling and Bane busts are not hard to hold off. It's why July is the only zerg who still does them. (regularly)

It's why July will never win a GSL, he uses tactics that rely on luck, luck that his opponent will make critical mistakes.

It might work on Ro32/16 players, but the deeper he gets, the less that shit works, and he transitions into his muta/bane style which isn't that amazing compared to other zergs.

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.


It's nice for the Zerg race to have something to fall back on I guess. If somehow Deathball and macro games become unviable against Protoss and Terran we have July who's shown overaggression and how to punish macro.

MC vs July proves his style sucks against people who dont mess up forcefields. I like July's style against terran, not against protoss. Still, July's decision to all in on Belshir was great and his tactical play is unlike any other zerg. GG July and I am looking forward to your matches.

I can understand the nada pick. but not the rest <.<


Well, July generally has ZvP, and I thought Hongun was pretty good, given his GSL performance. Puzzle was so hyped, while Ryung has always been mediocre, so I jumped on the bandwagon for that. And Nestea.....well I just wanted him to win so bad.

There are certain players who the community allows to cheese. July is one of them.


July didn't cheese. He plays pretty solid, he just knows how much he can get away with in ZvP.



Que?

Lol 6 pool isn't cheese now? Pass us the great stuff that you're smoking.


It seems pretty viable in ZvP. Atleast in the last few top level matches I've seen protoss lose even while holding it off initially. In my book to be called cheese it should lose most times if it fails. Thats not happening with 6pool in ZvP currently.
No matter how hot it gets, sooner or later there's a cool breeze coming in.

this season RO8 looks kinda weak... =(



average gsl terrans beat top tier protoss / zerg it seems, i dont think some of the terrans deserve to be there


Say what?! Top crushed Zenio cause Zenio messed up badly.

And Ryung is a better and more experienced player then Puzzle. And he basically sniped him (No 1-1-1 used)

Genius did win, and HuK did beat Nada so I'd say a average toss beat a top tier terran?
Furthermore, I think the Collosi should be removed! (Zorgaz -Terran/AbrA-Random/Zorg-Dota2) Guineapigs <3

Well, the players everyone wants to see in the finals are being knocked out while Terran overall continues to dominate.

Just another day at the GSL really.

Protoss in general should stop being so greedy with fast expo , impacient to get big toss ball.


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


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


It wasn't greed at all.. it's the only way to play in this map, he even got A LOT of cannons

This is probably Huk's easiest path possible to a championship.


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.

Actually, MvP is an absolute beast in TvT and TvZ but have previously been having really big problems in TvP. If he has fixed that, I'd agree, but it's not wrong to point to that flaw in his game.


You're still under the impression that MVP is the same MVP from 3 months ago in TvP. Did you not see him demolish MC over and over again in recent games? And that's just one example off the top of my head, i don't remember the last time i saw him loss vs protoss recently.
