Wait, since when has Metropolis been t favoured?

Lategame on Metropolis is a joke for zerg. Terran gets as much economy as they want for no cost, whereas zerg has to be everywhere to stop super-cost-efficient drops, and then when it comes to a fight, terran gets to sit in a choke and have almost no surface area open, while destroying brood lords easily with seeker missiles.


Stephano lost this game by mis-microing. He had to just lock down the ravens and vikings with fungal and kill them with his corruptors when he he still had a maxed army with all of those units.
Instead he decided to head-butt into Taeja's perfectly defended main, where Taeja was able to abuse the cliff so that Infestors could never reach his Vikings.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

Group d - Socke/Vortix
Group e - ForGG/Bling (Moon's PvZ is quite weak)
Group f - Hero/TheSTC

Did I get every one right except Socke? If only Liquibets were open for this

that was outstanding play from both players. Stephano's drop defense was pretty much bulletproof. The 1 ultra + 1 infestor + 2 banes holding off the triple drop was pretty funny.

I really wanted to see the worker count near the end. was taeja's army 160 supply? 180 supply? 195?

Great games. I feel like Stephano should have made more infestors and less ultras.

Wow are you dumb? They are almost the same skill. That was a close game until Stephano lost his army in mid.

You seem to be a mindless hater..



Were you looking at the banks of each player?

Taeja not only won the major battles he had the superior bank the entire time.

It was a convincing win. Stephano was thoroughly outplayed throughout the entirety of that game.


so you're basically saying stephano spent his money better?

I never loose against Zerg on Ohana.

And metropolis = just turtles and adds ravens. Not hard. And i've never loose against Zerg on this one neither. If you can get to this ultra late game, terran can't really loose on this map.

But when I play Zerg i have a much harder time on these two maps. BIG maps, but with not "lock down roads" are heavily zerg favored in ZvT. But it's a complete reverse with a possible split-map scenario.

Smaller maps without possible split-map scenario are far better for this match up.

Teaja won alright... but his raven control is pathetic. MVP is ashamed.

No PF's, no turrets, shaky Raven control. Somewhere, surrounded by piles of money and GSL trophies, Mvp is crying.

Nah you missed on quite a few. Protosser, Bling, Socke. Maybe more? Cant remember. At least 3.
