If it wasn't your intention, you should make a better statement than that.
Cross-server always hurts both players, but it hurts Zenio more because his ZvZ playstyle relies on aggressive army control over strategy/pure mechanics. So unless those games were 30 minute macro wars (and from this thread, it doesn't sound like it) Zenio would have a disadvantage he's not used to.

Zenio lost a 15 hatch 15 or even 16 pool against a 10 pool drone pull + spine rush first game. Zenio lost a macro game where he split up his army and lost both parts of it to the main army of DF.
None of those games were gimmicky ling/baneling encounters... so, he didn't lose because of delay.

Nice game Taeja, Socke was too ez for him lol
|
Solid play from Taeja in game one.
|
Everyone can lose, even when they are playing their best matchup. Zenio just lost. That's it. It happens sometimes.
|
Why does TL keep sending out Zenio? I mean, he is really good solo, but in team matches he really seems to do poorly. He loses to EVERYBODY, it feels like :/

He's 2-6 this season, with both wins against Empire (Beasty and then Kas in the ace match).

Could TaeJa play more greedy? Well played by Socke this series.
|
Very nice by Socke! Taeja is no scrub
|
Gooood joooooob SOCKEH!!!!!!!!
|
I don't like the ace choice by aTn against Taeja. He is usually so incredibly good in TvZ.

CC first is not really a greedy build because it is hard to punish similar to the way nexus first is only a slight risk. Also the third CC was at a standard timing

Boo, I wanted to see TLO or Sheth (or HEROOOOO... ...) for Liquid's ace.
