Also they should only have one analyst in front of that screen, it's too awkward with two, they're in each others way and are just fiddling their hands nervously when not speaking


the rise of goswer is kind of random, has he won anything?

He has better micro and better composition.

Those two statements doesn't really support each other =P

Cyto seemed to be playing a bit with Hero in the end to be honest.. it is hard to throw such a wicket lead he won by that probe explosion.


cytoplasm made +10 large mistakes

hero made 1 large mistake

but because the way the game is hero was just dead the whole game

its a shame but id be suprised if hero didnt come back from this


Losing 40+ probes because he stacked them all on gas was kind of a bigger mistake then most of cyto's.


Why are you acting like that was the big mistake?

The mistake was forcefield the ramp of the third instead of moving his army back to storm the ling/bane. Once he trapped himself out the game was over.


It was pretty sad when Hero realized it and desperately blinked his stalkers, hoping to stop the bane wave.

Even weather forecasts are more interesting. This analysis thing is bad.


I don't know if you can wrap your head around this but its filling time to get the next game set up. It's either analysis or its looking at artosis and djwheat stalling for time for about 5-10 minutes.


finally someone with a brain.

well said.

Wtf with the no. of people discrediting his play. No amount of micro can help trade cost efficiently against a protoss that's determined to turtle, except broods. He was lazy to wait for broods and tried to end it early. That's why zerg game design is so fking shit, the only game ending unit is one that needs no micro.

Cytoplasm is plainly bad, he got one lucky shot on the banelings, and destroyed the entire economy of Hero. Too bad SC2 is so unforgiving, in BW, it was easier to overwhelm an inferior player with micro alone. Well, guess Hero shouldn't stack his probes on gases anymore.


Oh get outta here, Hero moved out for no reason, had no vision of the path to his third and then for whatever reason forcefielded himself out of his own 3rd and moved all his probes on one geyser when there were banelings incoming. That was just plain bad. The fact that he held on for that long was impressive alone, but he definitely should have lost that game and any arguments how in "bw he probably would have won" are just pathetic, lol.


For no reason? He moved out to take a 4th and get vision of the zergs army. He couldn't get vision the entire time because he continuously had his obs sniped wherever the overseer mutas went which meant the only way he could see his army was with his own. He then placed the FFs because he had ling bling about to smash into his entire army... What else could he do at that point? He HAS to place those FFs or his entire army just dies. In hindsight he probably should have sent 1 stalker out to scout first but in the heat of the moment it's obviously a lot harder to put into practice. You insinuate like he played terribly when he played well but the Zerg just played well too and made a one great strategic move.

Best PvZer, wat?

Hero is easily top 3 PvZ. MC is another candidate, then Creator/Puzzle.


His 5-2 versus DRG was impressive but he just loss to Min, Stephano 1-3, and Annyeong. And he just hasn't looked good in the matchup. He's not top 3 PvZ at the moment. Squirtle is more than likely better, then probably Creator/Puzzle, with MC almost certainly #1.

It is not Cytoplasm's build.

Stephano was doing ling/infestor/ultra long before Symbol even showed up in Iron Squid.

Oz, Grubby and Alicia all won, so Protoss is doing pretty well right off the bat. Hero losing would be pretty painful though.

On the other hand, Zerg really needs a win, the LB is all zerg right now

he's sick good at PvZ, but he's definitely not the world's best. MC and Squirtle are definitely better atm
Maybe even Seed if you give him enough prep time

No one was doing that in ZvP until very, very recently.

And Fruitdealer was the guy who popularised it in ZvT.

Cyto seemed to be playing a bit with Hero in the end to be honest.. it is hard to throw such a wicket lead he won by that probe explosion.

Hero lost the probes due to a positioning error, not a micro error.

No amount of army control matters when your army is lured out of position.

What? Hero mis-microed his army which is why it was out of position in the first place. He also didn't block his choke with a Zealot, Sentry forcefield or Gateway in time, and then he clumped all the Probes on the gas rather than taking them into his main where they would be much safer, he could even have warped in a Sentry in his main and blocked his ramp so nothing got up there. Hero had a lot of chances to prevent what happened and unfortunately he didn't.

LOL your kidding me? Oh well, i guess clumping up my probes into a assimilator doesn't make me a bad player when there's clearly 20 baneling rolling in.

Its actually completly valid to say that in BW he could have won. The amount of skill in BW is astounding and large maps + microable units make for large skill gaps. One mistake almost never costs you a game in BW where as in sc2 with small maps like these its GG.


No it's not valid to say he would beat him in BW. It's a different game. But I'm pretty sure you could tell me if Cyto would be able to beat Hero in Super Mario Kart?
