The casters just have no idea what they're talking about, this is pretty standard.

We can still have July, Yugioh and Hero all at 4-1, so nothing is set.

And that's IF we assume Yugioh wins here. If he loses he could be knocked straight out

Not much you can do with a squishy Zerg army like that against proper Force Fields and Blink/ HT's Archons micro


Luvisc could have done a million different things that would have helped him win. Like not attacking into that army at all with diminishing returns.


No all the Protoss has to do is leave an archon few stalkers/cannons or Ht at each base and the zerg army can take a ton of damage to even 1-2 HT's because of its Clump/Squishy Factor.

This was evident throughout every time Luvsic tried to counter attack.


Actually the counterattacks did a lot of damage, Or did you miss the casters noting that Hero lost more than 60 probes? That alone should have put Luvsic significantly ahead if he bothered to expand properly and change his unit composition.

And when you're on 4 base it's not hard to build a roach warren/tech to hive so you can move out of your current composition.


Hero kept denying bases doesn't matter if hero lost 60 probes to be honest. A Zerg on Same amount of bases with such a squishy army that can be made obsolete to engage directly. Enough Photons and Ht's Archons spread for defense does wonders....

Also When hero lost his probes (the largest amount to banelings) he was still ahead!

Hero just denied Luvsics expos constantly.. Really squishy Zerg army 1 Storm can deal 1000's of damage....


Denying expos should have meant very little since ling/bane/muta style requires you to have more bases than P in the first place. In fact you want to trade base for base with ling/bane/muta. Luvsic never expanded fast enough to take advantage of his army's mobility so the base trades were almost always in favor of Hero. And he mindlessly attacked into armies instead of controlling the map, denying bases, and setting up a transition into more gas-intensive tech (all the real strengths of that style).


Exactly my point Hero had better economy more bases earlier whole game..


...because Luvsic played the game poorly. I'm not sure what we are disputing.

There's a lot of stupid people around here... -_-

Nothing is yet determined, we can have 3-way tie, we can have any of the three advancing, as it will all depend on the coming matches

with the ~10min third, he would have needed to play it 4-5base safe before mutalisks (just like you play 3base vs 2base safety before mutalisks in ZvP). So I guess it just doesn't make sense to go mutalisks in that scenario at all, as you could just go broodlords instead and due to the 200supply cap it is impossible to stay "safe" against 3base protoss in the first place without hive tech.

Nothing to dispute, I think were just discussing what we saw (and mostly agreeing with each other), at least that was the original back and forth between me and Rad.

If Hero wins every game from now he'll make it through :D. Hopefully July loses against JYP. I like July, but Hero is really really good and I'd love him to get to code S.

Wolf speaking nonsense. If Yugioh goes 4-0 he still isn't in Code S, as he has Hero as his last match, so it's possible to have Hero, July and Yuhioh at 4-1
