That's my point. Belshir Vestige will work too.

vestige is a nice map for creator timings

I think you see my point though: the map pool seems very Z favored with last pick if the maps are indeed that Z favored.


Thats probably part of the reason so many of the zergs made it out of the Ro32 of Code S but after that it balanced out a little.

Assuming you can hold the 3rd


..didn't Creator get demolished by a zerg on Vestige once?

he beat hyun on vestige, lost by a failwalloff by DRG lol


That's right. Once Creator messes up like that he's like an airplane in a dutch roll.

DRG goes for a fast 3 base while HerO goes FFE into stargate. The overlord misses the stargate and DRG techs into roaches and lair pretty quickly. Phoenixes take out the queen at the 3rd, and DRG starts spores. Phoenixes do pretty decent damage, taking down the queen and 5 drones. Some zerglings try to cancel HerO's 3rd, and he gets a few sentries, but otherwise little damage. More queens are being picked up by HerO.

DRG transitions into spire and also builds an investor pit. DRG gets 10 mutas and HerO gets a warp prism and moves out against DRG's 3rd and 4th. HerO's timing is pretty strong DRG ties to a strong 3base timing!

Straightforward, solid game from HerO, but not quite remarkable.

DRG is really reliant on surprise attacks in ZvP now....even though it's probably the worst way to play
