Funny enough Apollo is not really showing any big bias when casting, digging it.


dApollo's one of my favorite commentators, and I think one of the best casters objectively as well. Great understanding of the game, great passion and enthusiasm, and makes me giggle when he occasionally says "cheeky".

Here's a thought: Maybe bio isn't actually that viable.

Here's a rundown of most TvZs lately:

Did Terran go bio?

Yup.

Did Zerg Win?

Probably

Did Terran go mech?

Yeah man.

Did Zerg Win?

Nope. Not easily at the very least.


MVP went bio in 2 of his 3 wins vs Nerchio today and 2 of his 3 wins vs Vortix.

He pretty much uses mech more than anyone, but he still doesn't do it more than 50% of TvZ games

I still see terrans go bio and win alot lol. That game Keen was very, very behind all game long. Had he gone mech he would have still lost badly, probably more bad then had he gone bio.

Also post above me ^_^. I didn't watch IEM so didn't know that there were bio games there to of mvp winning with it and probably supernova to. .

I should probably have spoiler tagged that ><

Games are worth watching though, MVP played probably the nicest I've seen from him since he won GSL this year and both Zergs had some great moments.

It's a god awful map so hard to get a fourth. The only reason zergs were doing extremely well on it lately was because terrans had to change their styles vs the new 6 queen style of play.

Yeah, but zergs do all-in a shit-ton on this map. Just like protoss players love blink all-ins vs T on this map as well.

MVP went bio in 2 of his 3 wins vs Nerchio today and 2 of his 3 wins vs Vortix.

He pretty much uses mech more than anyone, but he still doesn't do it more than 50% of TvZ games


But he always used a strong transition to a skymech style.

I don't want to say you can't play bio but in the end MVP won because he was using tanks at the core to defend, some PFs to help out. On top of this the transition to anti broodlord raven compositions with vikings that still survived against ultralisk switches thanks to banshees was impressive and won most games.

I think MVP played a not bio focused throughout the whole game style really well.

I guess what I am trying to say is that focusing on bio into the lategame is terrible and that transitioning to a more mech army is better.

Most of the time bio wins it isn't in the lategame not without a transition away from MMM as the core units.

I actually faced mass speed reaper/medivac vs byun on MKP's account. I beat it easily and don't think it's that good if other player goes roaches (which I did ).
