Zerg are lazy. Banking on fungals to hold in place armies while bl do the work. Can't do that if you over extend and keep spawning infested terrans, you won't build up the energy.

3-1 IM....getting close there.

Oh snap, taeja out. Perfect scenario for me would be if Taeja loses and hero sweeps IM from there, but I have a feeling Taeja's going to pwn. Hope IM has something prepared.

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.

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.


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


What about stargate transitions and prism harass? Also vortex decides the game only if Zerg makes terrible mistake of not splitting his brood lords.

zerg splitting brood lords happens as often as DT expand. I mean cmon when you try to seige a base you have to like have muta spread vs a thor, and even then a vortex can still hit a good amount of them or all of them depending on how many you have.

Zergs split their BL a lot now days. They're only really clumped when the Zerg is caught off guard or is being complacent because Brood Lord armies normally win any ways with minimal micro.


the problem is it shouldnt even come down to that, but zergs are forced to go broodlord because ultras are so shit vs protoss, and there is no other end game tech, and that is why zergs always do the same thing cant really switch...maybe very rarely but tier 1 and 2 units own ultras.

Ultras aren't shit, they're just harder to use. Symbol, TeamLiquid's bonjwa, used Ultralisks a lot against Protoss.

or the bls start atking, and so they just natually clump. How many times have you seen a protoss get a whifted vortex vs money vortex? Its pretty easy to get either the BLs or the infestors from the vortex.

Whiffed vortex/dead Mothership happens way more often than GG Vortexes. With Brood Lord's 9.5 range and because they're slow they don't clump when attacking if you've already spread them out.


Ultras are insanely situational and if not used in a perfect environment they are absolutely awful.

Well, at least Idra can die happy, knowing there is someone who can throw a ZvP harder than him. Jesus, that was awful.

Both times Ret lost his BLs it should have been VERY clear beforehand that it was a TERRIBLE idea.

It was clear to me as a terran so... yer... I mean it might've been a good idea if he'd have gone above the cliff over the 3rd? I mean I think First would then just counter attack, but going over there was just a suicide...

Are you kidding me? It is time for ret to practice.

He is so good in every one of his games, but he chokes and loses.

He could be so good if he stopped choking.

Where exactly did all of Rets money go? Why didn't he have any support below his broods? Some roaches? Hydras? A ton of infestors spamming ITs?

Watching the TL Zergs makes me weep.....
