So basically its two zergs advancing from Round 1. Curious/Miya because its ZvZ and probably Yugi because he plays ZvT. Fucking sad.

To be fair, of the eliminated Zergs, 2-4 (assuming Effort and Roro will be out too) of them are Kespa zergs eliminated by GSL players, so that really doesn't say much about the races. Then theres Coca who lost to the current Code S Champion Seed,
and BBong and Leenock also got 2 of the other current top Protoss opponents too (Squirtle, MC); but even then, they still have a chance to go through. Then theres DRG we just watched, which was pretty close even despite how bad DRG played.

So it's much more of bad luck/mismatches than Zergs doing bad (based on the results of this tournament so far at least)



So what happened to all top Zergs? Isnt Zerg the imba race? Are all of them suddenly in a slump? Coincidence?

What do you mean? 12 Zergs got through the preliminaries for this tournament alone (more than the other 2 races), including current top zergs like Curious, DRG, Coca, Leenock, etc. Sure, it's missing Symbol/Nestea, but you can say for same for Terran missing players like MKP/MMA etc, doesn't really mean much when the preliminaries are Bo3 single elimination.


Too bad it isnt just this tournament. And who cares about prelims, look at round 2.

thanks for the response. i've been watching for the last few days and barely seen zergs win. that is my observation.


Your observation ignores the fact that pretty much every Zerg that's lost had opponents that were favored against them, especially with DRG currently slumping.

Haha the "welcome to THE MAPNAME" is so LoL wannabe.

But yeah, HerO still has the most BW esque PvZ in sc2 and thats why his PvZ games are the best. What if everyone played like that one day...


That's kind of the point.

Hero in general just avoids heavy collosus usage. I love it.

It makes him SO fun to watch. Really gives a glimpse of what the Protoss race could look like without that crutch of a unit.

As much as I hate the Collosus and loved the Reaver in Brood War I still maintain that the Reaver would be overpowered in SC2, now that the game's pathing allows for smart scarabs.

Seriously. The only reason scarabs were ever balanced in SC1 was because you never knew if they were actually going to do what they were supposed to.

Make them smart?! Poor Marines wouldn't stand a chance.


Well, you could make scarabs in SC2 have a 50-60% hit chance. :p

Or he is just being accurate. There aren't many Protosses who are as creative as Hero.


Wasn't exactly a creative game though. Standard 3 base immortal play, chose to go templar instead of colossus which is hardly uncommon, and then won in straightforward fashion since effort traded poorly throughout the early and midgame.

Just make then slow as fuck at firing, and even reduce their splash. As long as they one shot workers, just build everything else around that, besides, marine splitting is really effective in this game, I think its completely possible to balance them. The fact that they duded randomly was a bad thing imo, not a good thing.
