The bracket literally could not have been more perfect for him. Alive taking out all the terrans that would clean 2-0 him no problem while he played other matchups, getting to play Alive's weaker matchup in the final. He wouldn't have got smashed by anyone. Maybe MMA and MKP would have been favorites. I'd argue Bomber's TvZ is just as bad as Alive's if not worse. MMA, MKP and Polt would probably win these games, aLive just isn't as clean with his micro and decision making in TvZ. Polt is really overrated. Overrated yes, but still good enough to beat Nestea. TvZ may be but his TvT and TvP are very good! | ||

And still don't be ahead economically :> I've recently switched to zerg, and I'm confused by how easy bunker rushes are to hold. I just pull 10+ drones and it gets crushed easily. I'm always confused when so few drones are pulled. You say you won't be ahead economically, but aren't you free to drone for a few rounds after you stop the rush? | ||

It didn't matter that he was being cost inefficient, it didn't matter that he kept losing a ton of units. He just kept attacking, kept trading, kept picking away at his opponent and Alive eventually folded. The Zerg swarm is endless and unrelenting and they will just win if you play by attrition. Alive I don't think at any point in that game felt comfortable. He was seeing Nestea's Mutalisks under his bed before he went to sleep and in his mirror when he's brushing his teeth. Awesome way to play. That style would get completely smashed by anyone confident enough in their micro skills to try and split vs offcreep banes, confidence aLive has clearly shown to lack. What I've noticed from watching MMA and MKP play their styles is that when players are CONSTANTLY fending off harassment and playing defensively they make more mistakes then when they are playing with some semblence of comfort. When you play the infestor style, you cannot pressure the same way. It's a great way to play defensively and kill armies out on the map, but you lack that pressure factor that Mutalisks provide, and anyone that's played against a Zerg player with good muta contro knows, they get into your head. You're constantly playing with this semi-paranoia that mutalisks are about to show up and it makes everything else you do in game, be it macro or micro that much more difficult. That's just what I've noticed anyway. You're right in that it's an inferior style when your opponent plays perfectly, but it's so much more difficult to play perfectly when the pace of the game is sped up like that. | ||
