The massive insecurity levels of the hero fanboys is off the charts. Nobody is saying that cytoplasm is a better player than hero, that would be ludicrous. but cytoplasm did capitalize on a big mistake and win this match. I actually really like hero, but everytime your favorite player loses a match, running to the forums and trashing the other player and making excuses is just pathetic

So very very true. Cyto is not deserving of all the shit getting thrown his way because he happened to beat you guys Hero. Class up..

Nope. Live rewind is premium only.

HerO somehow staying in this game. >.>


He has better micro and better composition.

The game would have already been over if he didn't let 50 banes run aroudn his army and kill 75% of his workers.

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.


Because it was? You have an incoming army of with banelings, you're pulling your probes back, and instead of sending the probes from the nat into the main, you stack EVERYTHING on one gas?


He had already lost his third and even if he saved all his probes he would have lost his natural too.

As soon as Cytoplasm had free reign in his base the game ended.

His army was very close to the natural at that point, you can't possibly imply that stacking the probes on his gas was not a mistake.
It happens, even to the best.

It is not Cytoplasm's build.

It's Symbol's.


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


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

And Fruitdealer was the guy who popularised it in ZvT.


No, Stephano did not popularize it either, but he was doing it way before Symbol became famous.

Fruitdealer didn't popularize it in ZvT either, he exploited a bug.

The worst, obviously.

So since Cytoplasm won against Stephano the last time they faced... that would make Cyto ultra mega bad.

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.


He's gonna take a 4th when there's a massive ling bane muta army just outside his 3rd? Yeah that seems like a very wise thing to do. Also, overseers have nothing whatsoever to do with vision in that path, he should have a zealot/pylon/probe/whatever out there in case that cyto is coming around through that area. That is something you should expect from a player of Hero's level.

Show me some games in tournaments where Stephano uses Ultra/Ling/Bane/Infestors vs Protoss.

Is "Awkward" the latest buzzword or something?

The analysis seems fine to me. Nothing awkward about it. It could stand to be tweaked so each person is standing on an end as to not cover anything, but otherwise everything is good.

Yeah Hero has not looked good in PvZ lately tbh.

Last two matches I know of was a win over DRG and very shortly after a loss to Stephano. What else has happened 'lately' that made him look bad in PvZ? Well except his little probe explosion today =D
Hero is a sick PvZ


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


Seed is 100% better he is the best PvZ right now. Hero went 1-2 against Curious on the same day that Seed 4-0'd him. 4-0in'g a Zerg as strong as Curious is amazing.

Guys can we stop the HerO topX PvZ. Can we just agree his a very good protoss player who made a very big mistake... You know what. I heard Flash once missplaced a marine. It was horrific. Now get over it.
