Ridiculous for people criticizing Thorzain for making vikings.

yeah, I don't play competitively but it's internet warriors who love saying that ultras are useless in the first place


You see ultras work one time against a terran throwing units away all game and they are suddenly good units?

kay.

They probably don't play zerg. They based it off of a game where a pro who took advantage of the terran's mistake (making vikings vs assumption of broodlords).

Ghosts. Seen MVP vs July?



Byun vs Zenio also comes to mind (even though byun lost the game, he showed some really cool ghost play)

Yeah, but the game I referenced is just the most immaculate TvZ I have ever seen. Perfect, I daresay.


Near perfect. MVP won because July made some really bad decisions and tried to strong-arm an incredibly fortified defense.

This is such a great ZvT lesson, DRG is amazing. He did play risky there though, as pooling all that cash for so long, if thorzain attacked at any time, he would have won. That new patch would help DRG out a bit next time though!

Does anyone else feel like Thorzain has reached the point where he simply needs to get faster? He has such a profound understanding of unit composition and his engagements are solid enough, but it just feels like DRG is outpacing him on everything.

Got the exact same feeling.

He is wrong tons of time and has a tastosis curse running in the GSL where the player they hype ends up losing out (see Clide for reference).
Also, I believe he owes the fans a sword eating for SanZenith v Nestea game.

Really good play by Thorzain, but not enough :'( Oh well, at least it shows (some) foreigners have a chance against top koreans!

Thorzain had a 40 supply lead (even more ?) for a moment in the game, but I wasn't enough focused to see why he waited to push and thus giving DRG time to morph too many ultras.
