Why is Day9 saying that was a phenomenal play when he knows that against 90% of topish players that attack would be a massive fail? I'm not calling Hero bad, but I think he's overrated. His failures in PvZ as of late proves this to me.

Finding those little holes and weird timings is pretty sexy.

As I say that, HerO donates 8 stalkers or so haha. His failures in PvZ don't really prove he's overrated, given his corresponding solid results in PvP and PvT. He's gone from being a real PvZ specialist to being a bit more rounded.


Yeah he's looking pretty legit. I don't think you can hold his PvZ against him... Besides Rain no one else has really looked better consistently. His multiprog drop stylee has looked a bit weaker lately.

I mean he had some... moments this game but HerO"s ready for another deep code s run.

HerO's PvZ isn't bad either, he just needs to do more timings he rarely looks absolutely outclassed, bar his last Code S games when he screwed up doing the won/won/won. His style imo is, if not 'figured out', Zergs are just a lot tighter against it so he needs to mix it up more often.

Even Rain, who looked like a PvZ god lost quite a few games at MLG iirc. Hard matchup of late

WP Polt, hopefully he takes the next one too.

Damn, Polt got lucky there, at the beginning, when HerO threw away his collusus. Hero woulda just won with some more zealots warp in.

Forget this blunder and close it out now, HerO. The final awaits!

Ah. Just hte leenock game always sticks in my mind when I think of HerO's multipronged attacks. At a certain point if you have that army you can just roll with it and force the Toss to spend his economy against you.

And like you say zergs are looking a bit more prepared for the

Well, he left himself an out. Could've just ended with "... it looks like Hero's going to lose."

Why are people saying that Hero donating units means he's overrated?

He played like a fucking boss that game, his micro was outstanding(making no range collusu + few sentries + 5 staklers take out that early amount), his decision making (fake hallucinations/pushing out with them to encourage vikings, the extremely technical fake attack where he showed just enough to make Polt think he had more, his macro never really fell apart.

He just made two mistakes of a out of position collusus and out of position stalkers. I think he thought that they had blink, because he moved them near the cliff when he was trying to run away.

When Hero plays such a technical, aggresive, finese style, can you really say these mistakes overshadow the rest?

To me Hero is one of the top three protosses in the world right now.
