Number of drones at the time the pool goes down.


So are there really major differences with a 12 pool and a 15 pool say. How does it affect the outcome of the game?

For sure. It's fairly straightforward. Someone who puts down an earlier pool needs to do damage to the later pool player who has a better economy or else they will be behind. It changes how each player needs to approach the game, at least the early game.

This series just seems so boring to me, and I generally don't even mind ZvZ.

Problem is Life looks to be playing scared. He seems to be afraid to play straight against Curious and keep making weird decisions.

This third game was great fun and so back and forth. I guess to non-zergs ZvZ may be boring, but to me it looks sometimes as the most entertaining matchup out of all six. So much action, so unpredictable. Just when you think you know where the game is going, it can turn upside down in a matter of seconds.
