I don't know, maybe we get the hosts we deserve. It just reminds me so much of the obnoxious nerd style of personality and humour that suffuses so much of the gaming culture. Otherwise I actually think he's pretty good when there's not these weird compliments and little games.

So, no one is as hyped about his baneling anti-toilet as i am?
never seen it before, and if zerg would build even more blings and "hide" them until the battle, he could destroy anything by building 30 blings and sending them into the toilets...


No.
The baneling anti-toilet is not effective.
Dimaga tested it out sometime ago.Way too cost inefficient but Nerchio was way ahead so it doesn't really matter.
Play your best

It's not balance that is ruining PvZ as you can see from recent stats.
It's just that game is incredibly boring to watch.

3 scenarios
1. Protoss 2 base all-in works
2. Protoss 2 base all-in fails
3. Vortex vs BL

Yeah, before BL timing push etc. happen as well, but most of the games come down to these scenarios.

So it's either in the early game, mid game or late game that the match ends. I see.

All of these are generally blamed on Protoss players/the race, but are in fact a result of how Zerg is designed/how it interacts with the maps nowadays.

Looks like Nerchio is getting a bit more consistent at LANs too, and he's the most consistent player I've ever seen, all 3 matchups are like, within a percent or two of each other. Hope to see some more of him

This is the first game I see of Nerchio in month and a boy dat shit was scarry

Well, in fairness, Inori is pretty close to irrelevant in the Korean scene. He isn't Code S standard in the slightest, whereas Nerchio is one of the best non-Koreans.

Inori's beaten Stephano in PvZ though, can't remember the tournament, and he's getting a lot better since he joined TSL. It's a pretty decent scalp
