zergs seem to struggle very much since the new patch.

raven turrets are also pretty useless lategame because they dont have any upgrades. so now infested terrans are the same lategame

What games in this tournament that had infested terrans used enough to make an impact?

Thats the point. They aren't using infested terrans that much anymore.

Well Verdi is pretty unknown, so it's cool he gets a nickname . It also builds a little bit of story

I guess I just don't like nicknames that much, but I prefer it if nicknames were more rare and more fitting. Like a really special thing, that is really memorable.

Not sure if I agree, i saw it exactly the other way.


Yea he went for a bad 2 base allin and his micro made him lose.

damn, nerchio, what a crazy game
These sites might be of more use than a StarCraft site, where the majority of posters look on WCIII as the dense misformed fetus produced during Blizzards latest miscarrige.

I will never understand this sort of logic. If he lost, he did not outplay his opponent. The only thing that matters in stacraft is whether you win or lose.

It's still too early for me to judge the ramifications of the last patch, but (for me at least), its made the PvZ this tournament much more enjoyable from a spectator's perspective. All these engagements are so tense and so fun to watch!

Really great poise by Nerchio during that defense. It really felt like he was going to lose for a bit.

I agree. The confuser sounds so dull and doesn't really fit either in my opinion. As ToD said in the analysis. He played a fairly regular Verdi game. He's not really confusing.

Nice to see First didn't lose confidence from the up/downs and crushed his group.

I think we might be attributing too much of todays results to the most recent patch. I don't think many of these great PvZ's were really impacted by the patch. Gotta consider other factors like Socke's form today. He's been beasting all day today and the series against Nerchio for example was more of Socke's clean micro and decision making rather than this one attack by Nerchio on Socke's third where the IT's didn't do much damage against the 3/3 zealots if you know what I mean.
