Of course it's entomed! The worst map ever for ZvP

Why would you expand for a third when you see roaches, it like daring a zerg to roaches/lings rush you on Dual Sight when Protoss expand for a third. Shoulda go with robo before a third or mass blink with obs. and some immortals, then try to get a third. Now with Emtombed, Leenock might go mass roaches/speedlings again.

Great map choice for HerO, his third here will be easy to defend.

you got out of bronze?

Hero was playing really greedy ._.
Even if you play standard and get an expand at 11 (rather than 8:30) thats still a hard push to hold


I saw this as an attempt to deny scouting with the 3gate pressure while keeping Leenock on his toes but he didn't have enough ff and Leenock scouted the third way too early to do anything. I don't really like those kind of coin flip builds but Hero is more aware than anybody about that.
Zest fanboy.

Can only guess he gambled that leenock would go back to droning his three bases, puttying them at an equal economy.

Hero is another level of Protoss. Making all the foreign Protoss who sit on 3 base and mass Colossus or do 2 base all-ins look like a joke. Very smart and impressive play, especially for a race where it's hard to show the difference between good players and REALLY good players.

Yeah, knowing how to press f and click must have taken days off practice... not to mention blinking his army into banelings.


Oh please stop it with the butthurt attitude.

I've got nothing against hero, but i'm sick of all the stupid mindless fans who are like "oh wow that was amazing, he's the best player in the world, showing anohter level of protoss". He got a lucky forcefield off, and there's not much more to it than that. When he did engage leenock directly he derped and lost everything, but that one forcefield had put him so far ahead. That sort of build doesn't take much skill to execute; if you're lucky enough to get that ff down it's basically over.


Yeah, that's why we see foreign Tosses having so much success against top Korean Zergs like Leenock... I don't really understand the argument that "blah blah doesn't take much skill to execute" because many effective, powerful things in SC2 don't take that much skill to execute in terms of micro. Dropping stimmed marines and killing a shitton of workers? Baneling bust? Mass roach bust? Forcefields? The point is not that stuff like that is hard to execute, it's more about a player keeping up his multitasking, doing other important things while doing stuff like that, while controlling well. Only yesterday I saw Lure vs. Shine, with Lure trying a warp prism + sentry drop into the main like HerO did, and it got completely shut down thanks to Lure's miscontrol. So, either Lure is a terrible noob for screwing up something that "doesn't take much skill to execute", or it's a bit harder to execute than you give it credit for.

I think the main point is that all of those strats are pretty strong, but defendable in many situations, this one gives a feeling that the game is completely over as soon as the first forcefield is thrown down.

Go HerO!
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

I think Hero just blindly assumed Leenock was going to pick up a fast 4th because of that map.
