Life vs Goswser is a nobrainer and i have a feelin the bosstoss is back in bussiness and won't go down easy even against MKP,
If Scarlett can beat Drg, she can handle Nestea as well, same story for Stephano who rolled over Drg last time they met.


So was MVP vs Gowser supposed to be a no-brainer.


MVP isn't in his top shape for a while now while Life just beat Leenok so yes, I still believe its a no brainer.
I'll eat my sox for breakfast if goswser gets a map from Life.


You realize these games are cross server right? It's ZvZ, there are banelings, anyone can drop a map to an all in.

I think that life can just play safe to the roach/infestor point of the game, and even if he is behind he will crush goswser anyway, that's how superior players win, they don't take risks against inferior opponents.

ZvZ is only a knifefight if you try and play greedy, because that means you NEED banes to survive.

you cant have roachs out to stop banelings in time, and even if you do your opponent has a drone lead and takes a free third

Queens and 2 spines with banelings is enough, the amount of latency should not be a problem for Life aslong as he plays defensively.

Also what I was saying is that he plays safe, even if goswser gets an advantage, I believe Life will just win anyway.


if you have 2 spines then your opponent has a drone lead and just takes a free third

ZvZ is a match up where one drone more then your opponent is a big deal you cant just play safe and expect that to work

plus thats not lifes style


Yes, and if Life was playing Leenock or DongRaeGu, then that would be a problem, but he isn't, he is playing goswser, therefor he will win regardless of being behind a little, that's my whole point, he avoids any coinflip by playing safe, it's how almost every korean pro will play against lesser opponents, to risk getting knocked out by some odd cheese.


My experience in ZvZ is if you play it save against someone who isn't you don't fall behind 'a little' but really a lot. More than in any other matchup.

More than in PvP? In ZvZ there seem to be more harassment and stuff to get you back into the game, but I don't know, never played Z.

This is the main event IMO. The #1 Foreign zerg (disputable, stephano might be better) versus the #1 starcraft player (Royal roader, Blizz Cup)
