He won the first game and barely lost the second. Admittedly he got rolled in the third but that's just because he got predictable so Symbol went ridiculously greedy. Protoss definitely needs to mix in 2-base timings but the ones that rely purely on those are just cheesy. I don't think Squirtle fits this though. He plays macro builds more than anything else. | ||

Honestly, I don't think getting 200/200 roaches is mechanically hard for progamers. The speed usually depends on your tech, scouting and how many lings you make for map control/react to your opponents. I am sure if you ask progamers to get 200/200 without worrying about their opponents, they can all hit it within 10-15 seconds of each other. The situation where the true macro players shines is when there is action all over the map and they still manage to have a big reinforcing armies after each engagement. | ||

He could equally have cancelled 3 or 4 of the gates and kept the nexus and the upgrades going up and slowed down expand/droning, forced units. It could have gone either way. | ||

He made the group look easymode - both people he beat are top 3 in their race in the world. That was following a reverse all kill against IM's best. He loses to the runner up of last season and now hes overrated? calm down haha game 2 he only won because parting didnt know how to react to ultra/bane/roach, I think game three is the one you are talking about. That said, Symbol has lost to Inori/Kas/MKP/Inca in the past week, he hasn't even looked decent, nonetheless best player in the world. | ||

however i dont think that match showed much in terms of skill. just one zerg being greedy and punished. this would be like saying taeja can't beat seed or is worse than him because he lost to seed's gateway allins yesterday | ||
