This is unnecessary in this thread. The zerglings engaged in a very inefficient manner without surround. I don't know what the upgrade on the zerglings were, but even if they were 3/3, that engagement was very poorly done.

They were either 1/1 or 2/1.

I will say now that even if thorzain loses, the finals were still awesome and he surely made DRG crumble.

But Thorzaing, go for the gold.

Yeah that baneling bust was a bad idea and kind of where he started falling behind. DRG is good but is beatable. I think nestea is still a lot better.

Nestea wouldn't drop games to thorzain lol
DRG pretty overrated in that regard.

Very awesome games though

People are actually whining after that epic game. ;__;
DRG threw away that game by running away from 5 marines when he had 23 mutas. Just that Thorzain was really good, managing to squeeze out everything like that.

Reason for GG:

his meele upgrades were bad cause of constant pressure. No hive-units in the near future as well. his 3 first bases were about to mine out, there was a drop at his hidden base he couldnt defend, while thorzain had 3-3 marines up and mining comfortably, even with the dmg done by DRG.
he was more or less allin with his attack at the 2nd thorzain goldbase.

DRG just lost patience in that game. There was no need for that baneling bust attempt. He should have just tried to keep him pinned on two bases for as long as possible.


I think this is a big testament to a weakness of DRG. T-Zain's really calm and patient style seems to tilt him a bit. In both losses he made pretty bad decisions while Thorzain just constricted him into death.

Anyone else really annoyed that they used ladder version Antiga.....>_>


Nope, because that game was still amazing


Yeah, I guess, but it diminishes the win when gsl deemd it imbalanced and removed it. MLG version forces cross spawn too oh well, at least the game was okay.

OK first two games were lackluster from Thorzain, but this last one was sick.

If you haven't noticed, DRG is always on a losing edge because of map abuse.

Tal'Darim altar on those spawns can really screw up your natural mining completely w/ a contain.

Antiga Shipyard makes it almost impossible for a zerg to secure a 4th and 5th base sometimes vs good Terrans.

I can guarantee Thorzain wouldn't of won 2 games if the spawns were different, or even if it was a different map. No jokes, in all seriousness, it's true.

I find it amazing that you would "know" such a thing.

Dont wanna get too offtopic but yea, 3-3 marines are so sick;p


Now only we need a sick last game, and then this tourney was one of the sickest to date.

Thorzain finals are so good

DRG needs to abuse infestors before the nerf :D
this ling-muta heavy play, while he's the best in the world at it, doesn't always work.

Dongraegu to cocky here

He had the game but for some reason decided to force his win.
If he just sat back, took the gold and got upgrades instead of this stupid baneling bust he would have won for sure.

Btw:

Did it occur to nobody that this is the starting position GSL banned because of Gisado said it was imbalanced in favor of Terran taking the gold?

Just saying

Had no idea GSL banned a certain starting position on antiga :o


If I recall its because a terran can siege on the edge on his 3d and hit the extractor for the top left main
