Stephano's army control is saving him. It's actually really hard to be cost efficient in trades with ling baneling muta.

It is not hard if the terran doesn't split and is unsieged.

On the other hand, MKP control is really lacking this game.

Every TvZ against Stephano is the same. He does a Roach/Ling attack kills 30 workers because the Terran has nothing. FFS, is it really this hard to defend this? Make some units?


Yup, because if zerg don't do roach ling, you get really behind economically. Terrans get punished for going 3 CC. But zergs are pretty safe going 3 hatch. The queen buff and OL buff gave zerg better early game defense AND better early game scouting.


Nonsense. In most of these games, the Terran is building his 3rd CC before the Zerg starts a 3rd hatch. Not only that, but we saw what happens when Terran does actually make some units. Bomber at IPL moved out with some Marines and Hellions and did game winning damage to DRG. Turns out Queens don't make early game pressure obsolete as some claim.

And MKP didn't even scout. He doesn't even try to scout, plays completely blind until he has Roaches and Lings knocking at his door. It's easy to blame Zerg, but come on.


But it is not just MKP. How many terrans (korean even) have lost to this lately? Don't you think they know they need to make units to defend? But still, they choose to take the risk, there must be a reason. Yes, Terrans can still hit timings if the zerg doesn't see it coming at all (Noblesse vs DRG), but if you look at the TvZ in the last 3 months, you will see Zs win a lot more with early 'pressure'.




dude, you're arguing with someone who thinks korean high level terrans do extremely greedy builds because they're super bad, not because they absolutely have to... not worth it

I am kinda starting to think idra was right about mkp :p

What did he say?


I'm not really sure but i think you get a pretty good idea if you google "idra on mkp"

He said he was a gimmicky player that would disappear from the scene because he would get figured out and that he's bad at this game


Ah thanks, then there's no need for watching SOTG 72. But i guess I'll watch it anyway

Not many players usually want to commentate games early in the day and Harstem is like a full-time caster this Homestory Cup.

MKP makes some questionable decisions regarding base defense sometimes but god damn his micro is top notch.

Quite the opposite, though Stephano did forget pathogen glands.
