As usual, don't player bash, don't flame, and don't balance whine. Failure to heed this warning will have consequences.

One does not simply try the same build over and over against MVP.

Except if you are violet.

Dat amove into a fortified position

zergs should learn to b-move instead


Just learn to flank a little would be nice.

Guys like Stephano almost never just barrel down a choke with their army balled up like that.


Zergs just need to freaking do ANYTHING other than forming up a ball and attack moving.

The difference between someone just making 3 groups and comming in at different angles compared to what 99% of zergs do is insane, usually one sided fights with like 100 supply left over.

Honestly I'm surprised they keep playing into marine/tank's strengths like this...

Who would you take as a wife though? MVP or Nerchio?

(The correct answer is MVP)

Only fitting that it's Nerchio vs. MVP in the finals.

Mvp vs. Vortix Game 2:

Antiga Shipyard, Mvp top right, Vortix bottom left.

3:00- Mvp hides first barracks in the corner of his natural, but is scouted quickly by Vortix's drone. Then CC goes down. Vortix goes hatchery before pool relatively quickly.


5:00- Third CC going down for Mvp inside his main, and 2 refineries going down.


8:00- 4 queens for Vortix, and taking two gas himself. Third hatchery going down for Vortix at his regular third spot (6 o'clock position). Mvp takes his third base first (12 o'clock position). A few hellions out for tumor control.


11:00- Lair, mass lings, baneling nest for Vortix. Not many hellions are out though. Double engineering bay for Mvp. Medivacs, marines, and tanks on the way. Spire finishing up. Mvp dropping on Vortix, some damage (queen and overlord). 10 mutas on the way.


14:00- Mutalisks pop and snipe the medivacs filled with the marines. Supply tied at 160. Mvp continuing to power with more barracks. Infestors on the way, and hive already going down. Vortix taking base in center (bottom one obviously).


17:00- Mvp harrassing with multiple drops, and is maxed, while Vortix only has 170. Pushing out now!


19:00- Great engagement for Vortix. Great fungals and speedling surrounds, and the mutalisks clean up. Mvp still up 200-170 in supply, but now there's an ultralisk switch.


20:00- Ultralisk attack fails. Great spread by Mvp. Mvp takes out middle Zerg base. Mvp maxed and Vortix only has 150. No bank for either player yet. Mvp taking middle base (upper one) now as fourth.


21:00- More ultralisks and lings (and very few infestors and mutalisks) attacking in to the middle, but to no avail. High ground for Mvp and great positioning on marines and tanks and medivacs wins him the game. Manner mule and Vortix taps out, appropriately so.

Mvp 2-0



Thanks for the LR!


My pleasure Nothing more frustrating than not being able to watch a semi-finals or finals series that you wanted to see, and only knowing that Player X won and Player Y lost ^^

yea great map to play zvt ..
why do we still have thap map in the pool?


To give terran a chance =d


DRG loves that map for ZvT. Some Zergs do like it. Lucifron is playing badly atm, don't judge these games. For Terran it can be hard to hold the 4th vs quick ultras (done without 1200/1200 invested into mutas) and after 4th it can be difficult, esp b/c of the ease of creeping across map. Not saying it's impossible for Terran to play but it's not complete shit for Zerg.


DRG usually do 3 bases bust who are kind of all in on it tho.

MVP isnt some random zerg that popped up right after patch 1.5. can you honestly say you've heard of this guy before the patch? i mean HONESTLY.

so mvp's excused from bm because he's been relevant for longer?
