The idea of Ice Fisher is to drone heavily while relying on spines for defense, so theoretically you don't need lings. A spine is more effective than 6 lings for defense if you put it in the right spot. Zenio just didn't make enough spines.

OK, the ads build hype I guess, but I just want this game to start, gonna be so epic , though possibly 1 sided
edit: ..the fuck DeMu, aLive has been top 10 Terran for a while, just that nobody noticed him =/

Going fast spire in no way makes it your game to lose...

Ice Fisher allows you to drone heavily because gas is forsaken until both bases are saturated, then all 4 geysers are simultaneously taken. So no speed, which means no aggression. Ice Fisher uses lings, but without speed. Ling production is basically a must for ZvZ.

ByuL seems to be the strongest academy player of fnatic, and looks more promising than ForGG and HyuN, out of the BW players that made the switch.
Really want to see him compete in Code A next season.

Hero, are you magic?
I think you might be magic.

Zenio's been losing to everyone lately.
|
It must be said.
BITBYBIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT, I like the cannon focus, now he just needs to take the stalkers before the 3 gates finish, I think HerO should be able to defend though if he micros well.
NICE cancel, very levelheaded decision under a lot of stress.
edit: This is really looking like a refined season 1 GSL game lol, 2nd SCV round coming, 6 stalkers will demolish this though. gg hero

Well that looked like an...interesting hold.
|
that was a weird ass game. looked like gsl season 1.
|
Lol, that is the weirdest game I have seen.
|
|
ugh I really hope toss doesn't start forge feing vs Terran on ladder.
|
Of all all-ins to do, sucks that the forge expand build basically hard counters marine pressure/all-ins.
|
Nicely handled by HerO :D

Enjoying Demuslim's casting here, also that was such a nerve-wracking game lol, wonder how game 2 will pan out
Also anybody thinking Hero's PvT is really underrated, as long as he's not playing vs Polt that is?
