dat Snute slow-ling timing, working again against a top level zerg. Guess it's time to add it to our playbooks?

(and pause the game to look it up? :p)

Stephano so smart to immediately shave off a dozen roaches because he anticipated that Snute would send a hit squad to 3rd after the big runby into the main.

Not being able to spawn larvae on any hatchery is a huuuge disadvantage.

By the way the only correct answer to the above poll was yes.

I seriously don't understand why people aren't begginning to acknowledge ZvZ as a really good matchup.

It's soooo positional with so many tactics like sniping queens and "fungal walloffs" and burrowed infestors and tunneling claw roaches and it's a really even matchup that rewards the better player. It requires immense micro but revolves around macro.

It's also one of the few matchup's in the game where you can reguarly make comebacks.

Yeah but he didnt have that much money left so even if he had larva he couldnt use them no ? Anw, its true i forgot about the queens killed.

I'm surprised Snute, with the results he's posted in this tournament and notably IPL5, is not on a more renowned team.

His contract is running out, he is looking for a new team. LiquidSnute?

Might be a good fit, TL without any active Scandinavians just doesn't feel right.


depends if EG finds him 'marketable' and throws cash at him


That's a possibility ^ EG snagged Suppy before he had achieved any major results- though he'd advanced fairly far in tournaments and pulled a good number of upsets here and there (as Snute is now doing).


If you follow the EU scene you know that Snute has some nice achievements already (2nd THOR Open, 2nd Campus party behind Supernova, Ro8 Dreamhack). Thats not comparable.

It doesn't matter if it's one of the best matchups (it's honestly not fucking hard considering how shitty most matchups in SC2 are). Myself personally, I'm just tired of ZvZ, we've seen it time and time again over the past 5 months. If it's not a shitty PvZ, it's a ZvZ. TvT is one of my favorite matchups and you can bet your ass I was damn tired of it during GomTvT era.

I think the cool thing these days is to hate zergs so that naturally extends to hating zvz. It is actually a really amazing dynamic matchup and anyone who has some experience with zerg and an open mind will realize that.

TvT is awesome, but people got sick of GomTvT. I think ZvZ is enjoyable, but people get bored if they see one matchup very often.

It doesn't even come close to TvT, it's by far the most developed mirror, for me tanks are the cornerstone of SC2 positional play zoning units out and controlling space so well.
