Acer domination. Good run by StarNaN, getting that main stage experience.

You can go and buy HoTS coming soon to stores near you. It's almost like they're deliberately leaving WoL in a pretty poor state.

Meh, that vortex was not handled well, broods were unharmed :/


The infested Terrans force the Archons away from the centre. That's why they are put in the vortex in the first place. Then the banelings insta kill them pretty much.

Deserved win by Nerchio, Starnan tried hard but ultimately was lacking in macro it seems.


Sure 16 zealots would destroy that broodlord army...

Lol, banelings into Vortex - is it ultimate counter to Toss lategame?
If it is so than P is pretty screwed.

At least i saw some unexpected plays with this game (vide banetex)

They should make HoTS look more interesting as well if that's the case.

Wow that just hurt to watch. I feel like starnan deserved the win, after sniping hatch after hatch after hatch, and him going back to defend the little ling counter instead of just attacking. D:

Well it can still work, but zergs have been playing smarter.

Believe it or not, Zergs used to clump up all their broodlords even when they knew a mothership was coming, and even when they knew that the mothership was the only way the protoss would win. It was so ridiculous. The protoss could be a bit behind, and the zerg would refuse to spread their broodlords anyway, even though it was a basic micro requirement.

Well long story short, nothing has changed balance wise with vortex, but instead of zergs playing like idiots, they learned to adapt, and now vortex is weak.

It is like when banelings were used against marines initially. People were saying they were OP, but then terrans started to spread their marines and win battles against them, rather than just sitting there and taking the banelings to the face. Balance can change because of the metagame.
