The only reason hero lost that game was because he waited far too long at the end of it. Let annyueng get back into it by being able to mine all the bases that hero put so many resources into harassing earlier in the game. I just kept yelling at hero to attack (. Obviously amazing play and decisions except for that.

Pretty much this. If Hero just attacked with his carrier/archon/full energy mothership when he first got them he could of easily won. Instead he did all sorts of mini attacks and lost a ton of gas, including basically all of his archons leaving his mothership a whole hell of a lot less scary.

Damn that was brutal to watch :/
I feel sad for Hero, cant feel good losing that game :/

EDIT: I wonder why he sacrificed so many archons though..

So beating TSL 5-3 last season dosn't count? Also, 4-5 vs. Prime the last time..

I have faith, Taeja go!

There was never a time in that game as a masters toss that I felt like I could win that game in HerO's position if I was playing against the prime zerg. Defeating an infestor broodlord army controlled by a incredible zerg player is near impossible if you're not at their level. HerO threw the game away a bit, but at the same time it wasn't an easy win situation.

Im pretty sure that the mass recall play is exactly what hero needed to win the game, he was abusing annyung then jsut stopped and did nothing after that. Im not quite sure why he just stopped playing

Please don't use this game to balance cry, you'll only make your self look really foolish and uninformed. It's clear as day that hero threw that game.

WHAT THE HELL?!!!

The guy invests in 30 corruptors......just mass stalker and kill him.


He can't, not with all those FG ready to use on the stalkers. This is why late game PvZ will always end with how well a toss can use vortex vs a zerg stopping it. Hero tried changing the meta game up, but I'm not sure how you can in this end game PvZ type game.

TLDR: toss end game is OP with vortex, Zerg end game is OP with no vortex.

Didn't really threw it away. You just can't beat a t3 zerg army that is played well.
well gg

I have no idea where you get that impression from. But mothership + a massive amount of stalkers + archons mixed with a couple of HTs will definitely crush the latest of late Zerg armies.

HerO's mistake was carriers.

The idea is from every lategame ZvP where the zerg isn't a foreigner.

huh? it happens all the time..Zerg gets BL/corrupter/infestor with maybe roachs/zerglings then the P gets archons/mass stalkers/mothership..gets a blink under the BL n then you watch like 6 archons kill 20 BL in 2 seconds.

I think HerO should've gone for a full out 20+ carrier composition..
Now destroy him TaeJa!

Im pretty sure that at around 36ish minutes Hero could have a moved with his carriers in one place and then recalled to the next and then vortex with the archons too, that would have been the easiest engagement, i mean the only vortex he landed, 10 of his carriers were elsewhere for no reason :/

This is actually all part of the plan.

5th player will be a surprise player, SuperNoVa! And on his liquid debut, will score the reverse all kill to win the match for his new team!

I didn't watch the game too closely, but I suspect something like this happened. Carrier mothership archon templar is pretty much unbeatable if you just straight up siege with the carriers instead of cute recall tactics, randomly losing stray carriers and archons.
