That's why you use Oz now, rather than waste Leenock.


You were saying?


Doesn't mean it was a good choice. MMA's TvZ is much better than his TvP, in fact he's probably the best TvZ in the world right now. Oz has also beaten MMA in code S before whereas MMA has a pretty impressive 4-2 record against Leenock.

who's going to snipe oz at the end though?


That's the point, there isn't an obvious sniper for Oz. That's why he would have been a good choice.


This is why I think it's good to send leenock first: I'd rather have Oz playing against MMA in a do or die situation than Leenock.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

What I think is likely is that Leenock volunteered because he wanted a chance at MMA.

Leenock knows how good his TvZ is and he wants to prove himself against the only one of the top Terran TvZ's he hasn't beaten yet.

He'll get his chance for a rematch against Jjajki this season too.

i'm kinda curious how that battle would have played out if the ultra's were split into 3 groups and sent up the different ramps that were accessable.

Not sure if it would have been any better or any worse ... but id like to know lol

Mass lings + Ultra drops would've definetely done much better, mma didn't have enough marines to kill the overlords in time.
I like the part where sense is considered a common, settled thing.

You will see better result than what Lucky did. There's no place that is worse to engage than where Luck used. lol

Terrible decision by Choya. If anybody is going to kill Leenock it'll be MMA.

Agreed.

Maybe Leenock has a specialized build for MMA or Oz has been crushing everybody in practice. Not saying that is the case for sure or that I agree with Choya but it's a possibility.

Oz also plays MMA next in code S. They might be hoping to keep oz from having to play mma now to keep his strats secret


Good point I didn't think of that. But they must have known that they would need to use Oz at some point against SlayerS... To be honest, the score should be 4-2 right now for SlayerS if they didn't send out Clide against a zerg.

You think it's worth it? It seems kind of risky to risk falling out of the GSTL when Oz could still advance even if he somehow doesn't beat MMA in the ro16. And I think that he'd probably be able to do it anyway.

Ask Leenock and DRG how to use it.

He beat MMA at MLG Providence iirc.

Somehow antiga remembers me of Jungle Basin.

When Terran siege in the center of the map, Zerg has a hard time do attack directly, the diference is that Antiga has more options to expand.

Pretty sure I've seen Stephano and DRG as well as Nestea absolutely dominate Terrans using Ultralisks.

Zergs that whine about Ultras just like to forget how dominant they can be if used right.

I agreed that he engage into a bad position. And I agree that Ultras when used well in good spots are fairly decent. I think the knock against Ultras is that there aren't that many positions which they are good and many at which they are bad...

Sweeping statement. Stephano/DRG would like to have a word with you.
