You must be new here  I think Jjakji's build wasn't too good. Symbol made those 3 spines because he did not see an expansion (despite scouting most of the places where it would have been). It is worrying to see that Symbol was pushing creep while hellions were actively trying to deny it. Jjakji lost 2 hellions and killed 0 tumors (the first tumor to die fell to 2 scv's he brought with his push). | ||

So Jjakji decides to go for an all-in dependent on scouting denial. It's far harder to deny creep spread and the resulting map control that allows for the massive economy explosion into the already superior late game so an early all in isn't such a bad idea. Kind of bad all in, but there you go. I'm sure Terrans will figure something out. Or I hope they will. But it's a bit much to expect them to figure it out all that quickly when the entire game plan has been to take map control early to stop the economy explosion and creep spread, which is now very difficult. | ||

T won't do anything outside of macro up till trying to hit a 2-2 timing before Hive, they can't really be aggressive once their early harass is shut down since none of the units make up the core army, and the Z is free to use any extra queens built to just dominate the map with creep. It's a stable build, but if you don't get anything out of it you just end up relying on small timing window to hit before you're dealing with a lategame onslaught. I'm interested to see if aLive does the 1 rax -> 5/6 rax builds that he did vs NesTea a lot at iron squid rather than a hellion build. Seemed an interesting way to still put on midgame pressure, but vulnerable if the zerg gets a good read on it. | ||

Well you can't blame that type of response, P and Z have been buffed quite a lot recently, while T has honestly become weaker and weaker with every patch. Hopefully we find something new, turns out finding out about ghosts was bad. | ||
