l.o.l.

hes right...

It's z favored till waaaaay later then this game got, when you have 6 v 6 bases almost mined out, with pf bc raven type comps (because of the chokes)

it was still a map in stephanos favor

Indeed. I think that if stephano had attacked before those two turrets came up he woulda won. Once those ravens were there Stephano just can't get his godly engagements with the burrowed infestors.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

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?

No carelessly.

Why aren't you up there then? Just pick metropolis and Ohana every vZ

Lol are you fucking serious?
Metalopolis is Z favored. I did not see the first map but there isn't really a T favoured map anymore in TvZ.

My god a level-headed and super chill French guy when it comes to Stephano games :D

Apologies (really!!), but I've been so, so, so used to seeing massive French Stephano fans in LRs, it's not even funny ;]

Thought this game was great even though a lot of others disliked it~

Really hope Hero can do well here though ^^

Overstatement much?

It was not as close as game 1, but still.

TvZ: 93-128 (42.1%)
Metropolis stats.
Nobody cares if you don't lose against zergs lol, if you had that good of a match-up you would be GM.
42% TvZ from semi-pro/progamers games that is.

Terran has a better late game than Zerg in the very late game, with BCs Ravens Vikings and Thors. I thought the decision to go for Metropolis was odd for a second but then look at Taeja - he's the ultimate late game player, so obviously he's going to choose a map in which he is able to turtle to super late game.

Yeah, Zerg has such a hard time on Metropolis.

Totally.

If the Terran plays well...

Zergs even whine about maps where they have a 65% win rate. Amazing. Truly amazing.

Guess Terrans just normally play terribly or something.

its a Terran favoured map in Korea/

Yeah same, for some reason he made much less infestors than usual in the two games he lost. Usually he has at least 8-10. He really could have used some more fungals there.
