yay July =)

Made quite a few questionable decisions but never let it really get close to slipping out of his control.

game was pretty much over at 10 min mark from blind countering. herO put on a good show but was way too far behind TT


Wasn't blind counter. Hero misread the situation, so he lost.

Funny how all hailed Hero as the best Protoss when other were failing left and right in Code S, but now that Hero plays against the same opponents he looks as mortal / "bad" as the others were before him.

Was he assuming fast infestor?


hrm maybe, but as a Terran player myself it's mind boggling as to why someone would do a push vs zerg with no anti air at the 11 minute mark.


I'm getting more convinced that Hero was trying to hit that timing with 4 gate warp prism pressure, but he completely misread the tech and assumed infestors instead of mutas.

I am happy Hero goes for Templars, because it makes PvZ games interesting to watch compared to balls of Colossus, but why do it when Colossus balls seem to much better (albeit so much more boring)? Do he skip Colossus balls for entertainment or that the skill cap for Templars are higher than Colossus balls?

I really like HerO, but this just makes me feel like TL massively overrates him. Sure, he looks amazing slapping down players like Ret and Sheth in foreign tournaments, but in the GSL, he never seems to look as good, and it's probably not just because he magically has bad days in the GSL.

Of course, I'd love to see HerO advance from this group, but I'm just trying to be realistic in how I evaluate HerO's skill.

i've watched him slay the best z's in the world on his stream.. he hardly ever loses a pvz from home. i'd chalk it up to nerves or that he has never seen such a build out of 3 base.. really fricken greedy play from july paid off


Really? What players does he beat on his stream? I haven't watched his stream in a while, but if he regularly performs well against top Korean Zergs on the ladder then it definitely must indeed be nerves. I hope he can shrug off this likely loss and advance from the group.

all the zergs you'd expect to meet at the top of kr gm :D he has sprees where he will hit 10 pvz's in a row and destroy every single one of them convincingly with like 5 different transitions out of ffe.. 4 gates for a 8 min zeal timing to kill third, robo into 5 gate wp with 2 gases to harass main while taking third and other such variations.. lot of dt rushing too. he keeps it fresh!

his builds almost never get a fast blink, though. not at least until after robo has made a few units and he has 4-5 gates already working. i feel like july has been watching :p

Looks deliberate to me

same. it was the right option too imo, he killed 10 or so stalker, and had so many units streaming accross the map hero had literally no army, while if the army was up he coulda had a lot more HT and traded okay, but as it were there were so few stalkers that it didnt matter what number of HT he had

Y not switch to roaches after a huge lead??

because ling bane is so much better against blink stalkers, blink stalkers are so good against roach, if hero maxes on stalkers theres nothing a roach muta army can do

Hardly matters how unefficient july was trading anyhow, he was up 2 bases so he was getting so much more gas whehn hero was on 2/3 bases only


Excactly he was just keeping the numbers low, better econ you can just bully your way to a win. And July did excactly that.

He literally just doesn't lose to zerg on the ladder. Losira comes to mind as someone he beats consistently.
