1 everything terran has shreds or trades better vs hydras
2 trying to throw supernova off with hydras in zvt im guessing, still terrible though.

you were saying??????????

I still have to agree with him. oGs could have taken the match safer if they switched up race choice after nada lost. At least now we know that NEXTREME's PvT is very solid.

I'm pretty sure 2 marines beat a single hydra.
Marines are faster, smaller, don't cost gas, have stim, cost half as much minerals etc.

Hydras are light so they also get completely owned by hellions.
Basically the only thing hydras are good against on T are banshees and SCVs.

What was he trying to do? No one's really sure. :D

Siege tanks are like colossus with less damage to hydras

tbh , i have no idea . My best bet is he tried to convince supernova to go heavy tank + marauder and then do a heavy tech switch to heavy broodlord play ( exactly what he did) and try to catch supernova offguard and end the game with a single heavy blow with 2/2 roach hydra infestor broodlord. Execution was sub par but it strategy looked pretty cool on paper....

Too bad for Zenex, they were so close. I think it was a mistake sending in Life as an ace because the younger players without much experience have huge nerve issues, and that seemed to be the case here. He didn't even bother dealing with the drop at his in base expo when he had his army sitting at his nat. It's really too bad because Supernova wasn't at all prepared to deal with broods so if Life just handled the situation better (sent few roaches to stop the drops, not lose 40 supply worth of units in Nydus), things would've been quite different.

the use on hydras on a small map like that is kind of useless, better served with infestors with the army going into a small choke easier to fungal more units... he needed to take an opposite base like many other top players like leenock would have done~ either way he was outclasses it wasnt even close he forced him into hydras and knew exactly what he was doing~

Da Faq did i just watch?
I don't understand what Life was trying to achieve with that build. On top of that peculiar build he played really poorly, probably due to not being warm uped. However, really impressed by Extreme, he dominated most of the terrans but he looked really fragile as he played making many mistakes. Oh well, a win is a win.

The 2 keys that tipped the game.

1. The hidden base getting scouted

2. The Nydus dying.

With those two things going against Life, he actually played really well.


He was pretty dead even without the nydus dying, but yeah, that was just......................O_O

Yep, pretty cool strategy imo.


Except that SuperNova didn't even feel the need to pull back 4 medivacs full of units when Life All-inned


Yeah, but everything actually looked good up until that point. Defending 3 bases from drop/pushes using Roach Hydra Infestor while doing small harassment, then teching to Broodlord and destroying the Tank/bio before they can react.

Looks like a viable strategy, at least.

This whole series had be feeling like that flash meme. Such incredibly low level play with mistakes and face palming moments in every single match. I hope the next GSTL matchup isn't as bad as this one.

This is really, really sad, but also really, really true. Poor ZeNex. I want them to do well
I can only imagine what kind of powerhouse the team would be with their old players. Well anyways Zenex fighting!
Life/Seed//Mvp/NaNiwa fighting! ZeNEX forever!
