Not at all. Naniwa's build was awesome to bust DRG's third. Smart play.


I agree. What was stupid about it? The build he just did punishes any zerg who doesn't scout it quickly. DRG might have been in a better spot without a third base, but it still would have been tough to fight the followup 7gate. It was smart.

alright can some highish level Protoss explain why Nani is blinking back portions of stalkers rather than individual stalkers like we see so many pro's do?

Does it have something to do with the roach attack animation, was DRG not target firing... ?

there are lot of lings with good concave hitting so many stalkers in front

thats why he gets those stalkers to blink back instead one per one, if he doesnt do that, more stalkers die quickly..

Naniwa is fucking smart. I don't even know what the correct response to that is. Sick way to play the map ^_^


Like.. punish him for not going forge? But then again, you may not because the current meta game delays gas as zerg.

Considering DRG is such a big favorite, this one win for Naniwa might just even it out to around 50/50

Why? Zergs are always greedy so he takes advantage of that.

naniwa did the greediest opening into ultimate cheese vs a standard zerg build. you couldnt be more wrong if you tried : /

NaNi wins the weird game

DRG had no idea what to do that game

Time to see what happens in a more standard game

His build 100% doesn't work if DRG responds properly with the scouting he did.

uhh what? He went 3 hatch and wouldnt have had more units even if he canceled it and never rebuilt. He should have canceled but yah.

Nani's build takes advantage of the fact Zergs don't scout atm. If DRG scouted the gate first it would have been very different.
