I also don't like how zerg in SC2 has a 40 supply advantage and can max at 14:00.

For instance in Broodwar zerg had to have +20 pop vs toss and toss had to have +20 pop vs terran.


The zerg supply advantage is pretty much just because Roaches are supply-inefficient, which is the only thing stopping them from 1aing everything unstoppably.

That zealot trap on the queen was crazy. Awesome play.

Stephano's multitasking kind of falling apart here. He'll probably still win but he is missing injects and was floating like 2.8k

Stephano is really struggling to deal with this, he hasn't even restarted his creep spread. He normally has such amazing creep.

That was intentional. He had to wait for Spire and other tech buildings to go up. He didnt want to max out on roaches.

Really nice warp prism play by MaNa, but he really needed to take a third.

What is wrong with a standard macro game? It was standard, but very well executed. Games do not need to contain innovative or flashy stuff to be "finals-worthy".


What I'm getting at was that it WASN'T particularly well-executed. Sure, it was decent, but it wasn't fantastic, even for a standard game. Stephano repeatedly forgot upgrades and floated tons of money, he went for Roach/Hydra/Corruptor without a Hive for absolutely ages when Mana was turtling (read: couldn't pressure) and I don't know why the casters kept saying it could go either way - once I saw the Infestors/Broodlords and how delayed the Stargates were it looked obvious the Stephano would win.

Mana had pretty decent positioning and (obviously) very good Forcefields, but other than that his decision-making was definitely questionable (especially on expanding, unit composition and when to attack/withdraw). Mana still plays PvZ like it was played 5 months ago, turtling to get a deathball then attacking - which is fine if you can pull it off by doing it impeccably, but he didn't in this game.

In no way am I saying that I could do better than either player, but I certainly EXPECTED better from them. Nothing looked brilliant to me, especially after watching MLG/IPL, or even the previous matches from both players.
