masters players may over commit to defence but that was horrible decision making but zenio, after the successful defence of the spire, its so obvious he will attempt again, put down 5+ spines

I don't understand why so many people are negative about vortex in pvz. It would be stupid if every single match up looked like tvz. I'm not saying vortex is the most intresting thing in starcraft but it's clearly not boring, at least not for me. Just think about kiwikaki vs stephano game, I can't be the only one who's enjoying watching late game pvz.

Talking about that, I did not find his defence of the 4g pressure very accurate, he lost 3 Queens and had to use lots of larvae...

Not optimal, he made mistakes, point out mistakes, or whatever.

However Zenio is not a fucking "BAD' player. When did player bashing become acceptable? Maybe it's the influence of Demuslim's stream I guess, where EG shit-talk players who have infinitely better results than them.

This isn't directed at you btw, just a general rant.

the way first was playing made it impossible to NOT clump your broods

first was using collossi to swipe spines then running away and redo'ing it. infestors that tried to get close to fungal got swiped by collossi

next, only way to kill collossi used in that fashion was to fungal them and kill with broods. zenio tried that but naturally broods will clump when trying to do that

and if you keep your broods too spread out, the mobile toss army runs around swiping your spines with collossi range and taking out broodlords 1-by-1 because they arent together




not saying toss is OP but zerg needs to change their endgame plan imo.

how about just 6 broodlords, then some ultralisks, and infestors, and some roaches and a few corrupters. 1-a your army, spam fungal on the zealots they fall fast and broodlings make it so its hard for immortals to counter ultras, spam fungal growth on the entire toss army and it dies so fast and broodlord range makes it hard to feedback infestors when infestors are protected by ultras/broodlord range. carpet the entire toss army with fungals and infested terrans while ultralisks are very resistant to storms, entire toss army dies after 15 seconds of chain fungals and you maybe lose your army too, remax on 200food of roach ling and swarm all his expansions because he has no collossi/forcefields to deal with it

To think they would corrupt his young, pure soul. It's depressing, really.

all this complaining, all this bashing,

why don't you try to fill in your time on your own? the event could be better obviously, but are you so dependent on this event and its content that you let all its problems affect you all that badly?

all the complaining gets less tasteful after a while.. really, think about it


Try being awake for this for ages just to see the worst trash in ages im dead tired but rlly want to see the end ( or at least hero). I think everyone has the right to complain bout this roflcopter dump they call a finals. Even zotac and z33k cups are better.

If vortexTaeja hits, protossLiquid wins, if vortexTaeja misses, zergIM wins? ^^

Also keke golden advice.

Darn, looks like Ret is up, wanted to see Hero get a few games in before they send out Taeja. First just showed how good his PvZ is though, maybe Ret has something in store for him.

It was interesting when it was rare and a kind of weird/creative play. When it became standard lategame it just got really boring to watch, at least for me.

then first warps in 4 dts through a warp prism....i mean you need like 7 spines and like 3 spores to defend a greater spire.

Really Teamliquid is just using zergs as blood sacrifices to power Taeja, I mean it worked when they fed three zergs to Genius.

Why so many people bitching about vortex and ignoring all the money feedbacks First got on Zenio's infestors?

Because I still don't understand how you get vortexed like that. I really don't understnad why he didn't split up a little bit, heck even 2GD saw a great move for Zenio, be above that "mountain" below the 4th(admittedly if all his bls were there he could get stormed, but having a few would still be good since stalkers couldn't engage).



it's more than just the vortex, he was under pressure until that very moment and probably did not expect an attack as soon. his newer bases were denied completely and the gas he needed was just not there. not to mention a lack of detection

yeah literally every late game pvz is exactly the same now. and to add to the lameness its down to one cast on one unit that decides a 25minute+ game
