Coin flip match up is coin flip


Just because Ret was very greedy and had a BO loss doesn't make it a coinflip match-up...

If a protoss went Nexus Nexus gate and lost to early marine pressure would you call it a coinflip?

Hell ZvZ is almost the least coinflippy match-up because both players can see most of the map and it is the match-up with by far the easiest scouting available.


exactly ^^
the only thing that's volatile is the larva mechanism but even then you can scout your opponent most of the time with ovies or lings.

Somehow Lucky's ID seems very fitting when looking at the build orders used by both players these two games =P

No it's not.
If you want to play super greedy then sure it can be

15 hatch beats 14 pool, 14 pool beats 10 pool, 10 pool beats 15 hatch, i guess its more like rock-paper-scissors than coinflip


14 pool can beat 15 hatch
15 hatch can beat 10 pool as well

it's all dependent on skill level

Love ret fans blaming it 100% on BO.
Everyone knows ret almost always plays extremly greedy, and most of his losses are from that aswell.

If he could just play safer he would be 100% fine.
Rets droning kills him alot.

I disagree. It's coinflip if you do something like 6pool, and hope that your opponent doesn't scout.

Or hatch first and hope your opponent doesn't scout.

But if you do a safer, middle-of-the-line 14/14, gas then pool, pool then gas, pool into FE or anything like that, Yes, you could be at a slight disadvantage to a hatch first, but you can just play a little more defensive and be safe.

It's not as ridiculous as everyone here pretends that it is.

zvz isn't coin flip, nestea has 9x% win rate, you need to be very lucky to get 9x% in a coin flip matchup

Yeah, it reallly is. A lot of ZvZs (like that last one) are build order losses.

I'm pretty sure a majority of BW fans viewed ZvZ as essentially a conflip matchup until Jaedong started winning 90% of his games while doing crazy shit like defending hatch first vs. 9-pool with sick drone micro.

Yes, it's already confirmed

Whats up with the caster bashing?
It's not bashing when its the truth.

I'll be saving this post, I'll need to reference it in the future.
