Haha Incontrol taking potshots at zerg all weekend:

TvT at a high level is absolutely sick, second or third best matchup hands-down.


yeah second best but still TvT is a turtle-fest 2k. I like the turtle games sure. But it's mostly just turtle and defend imo.

Dude go watch MKP vs Taeja, you have no idea. What is this, TvT 2011?

Yeah early game TvT has become so volatile and can be very action packed.

No.

Because TvT is an interesting match up, and MVP vs Naama is the only one we can possibly see for the rest of the tournament.

We saw all 4 players in the group play TvZ's now, it would be much more interesting to watch a TvT and a ZvZ than it would be to watch another set of TvZ's (MVP/Ret Naama/Golden).

This is all presuming that they broadcast only 2 games of each player on stream like most of the other groups.

I guess:
1) Sase will be invited to code S next season due to well played at latest MLG and other tournaments.
2) He has a good chance to do reasonably well, similar to Naniwa.

Clearly code s material however.


Eh, it's debatable. I think he can definitely go toe-to-toe with many code S players. I'd love to see SaSe qualify for code A though and come through that route. I think he has the ability to do that (especially if he is code S material) and it would be cool to see a foreigner battle his way through code A and try to make code S without a seed.


I don't think any other foreigners has a better chance for a seed. Of course Stephano will get one if he wants, I guess he has a standing invitation.

I dont care att all for that qualify through code A talk, it just takes a lot of time and you pretty much need to stay in Korea all of the time. Few foregners can do all that. But I am not interested in that discussion, I believe they will be seeded anyway.

You must say that ZvZ is much better nowadays than TvT! with the Nydus play and fungals.. All the aggression.. the games we saw in TSL4 showed us that!


lol u serious ?? :D



yes i am, the TSL4 games ZvZ was impressive and the casters was absolutely blown away..

They showed every single game except for MC vs. Slivko until now. So they will show this match too.

I've seen those games but that's 2 complete superior players imo. MKP and TaEja are beasts that can provide good entertainment for the viewers. But the games VortiX played in TSL4 ZvZ was insane you must admit.

No, that's actually every single TvT, both Korean and foreign.

In all seriousness though, Golden fucked up and grouped all his BLs and corruptors together.
Probably should have tried an Ultra switch after that first battle, idk if it would work since MVP was also making marauders and tanks still.


He fucked everything up in the late game.

He had barely any Infestors at all which are the most important unit against mass air.

He had like 40-50 more supply worth of workers and a lot less army supply.

He still had a lot of Broodlords against air only.

He didn't use Nydus+Ultras at all, even when MVP had only Vikings.

HE DIDN'T MICRO AT ALL in the final engagement
.

i dont think anyone can micro the slowest unit in the game vs like a 2.8 speed projectile..best i can see is just to have the BL naturally split before it happened.


Next patch: give broodlords stim.



seen idra and a few other zergs micro hydras off creep vs banelings

tis possible, just not with all units, like ht micro is kinda lol


Ye I was just joking. I know it's a stereotype but so many zergs just can't micro, the first "bonjwa" if we get one may just be a good macro zerg with really great micro. Stephano has decent micro I suppose, so does DRG, but no one really sticks out for things like unit retention. If you watch almost any PvZ the zerg throws away dozens of units for nothing---bad rally points, bad positioning, indecision, etc.

Zergs throw away zerglings, and roachs which are like nothing to them. I doubt zergs try to do just lose BL/infestors on purpose. Also infestors are kind of slow also so they get picked off when zergs try to retreat with them.


That's a silly mentality though. Those 15 roaches lost for literally nothing could've been another almost fully saturated base, which is a big thing at the highest level. Or infestor tech. It may seem like nothing but it could still give a good advantage.

I doubt there is any time where zerg try to lose just 15 roachs, but instead a FF just sections some off so they get destroyed or they try to snipe a expo etc.They try to at least do something with them. Also there is no way that zergs dont even try to protect their tech, but maybe like 4 dts or a bunch of zealots just snipe off the greater spire or spawning pool or infestation pit really fast.


You'd be surprised. I remember Stephano just wandering roaches in the middle of the map versus MC, literally doing nothing with them, and he just kept picking them off with phoenix. He wasn't trying to snipe some probes or anything, just was throwing away units. A lot of (at least seemingly) random posturing from zerg often leads to things just getting sniped off with blink and things like that.

sounds like he was trying to keep map control. Also what should a zerg do when just roachs are running away from blink stalkers, and the stalkers just keep picking off the roachs with blink? All you can do is just retreat or have infestors out already to stop it. Stephano could have tried to end the game with the reinforcement roachs with his like 14 min roach max or something..i forgot the time the max is.

..okay you don't know what you're talking about.
If you actually bothered to watch TvT, you would see the aggression.


I've seen plenty of TvT's these couple of weeks yes it's aggressive but i find ZvZ more agressive than TvT. It's my opinion right? And the TSL4 games with all these zergs qualifying showed us insane aggrressive play.

lol that's pretty much it...
sometimes a guy like Freaky will go pure infestor, and maybe theres a muta tech switch, but in the end whoever wins the roach-infestor battle wins.
