I'm mildly concerned that the thread has a lot of "if protoss no sentry, gg. If zerg no infestor, gg". I would love to play HotS and see what new developments are in store.

The only impressing thing about that was the terrible play from Stephano!


It's only terrible when he loses right? LOL

If he Roach bust had of worked I bet you would say "GREAT PLAY BY STEPHANO"! Give Argo credit for his win instead of saying "Stephano played badly" because he didn't. Argo was just better at preventing Stephano from flanking and developing the right unit composition.

I don't get why stephano didn't go for nat/main when the p forcefielded himself at his third.. the usual common tactic?!

Muta would be good choice for Stephano

christ stephano. DONT GO HYDRAS VS TOSS OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG


Actually hydras are pretty good vs protoss without Colossus or storm

That last game begs to differ ;p forcefields can still massacre a hydra army.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Both have already become pretty famous in SC2 actually. Reality with some massive runs and wins vs major GSL players, and Jaehoon(Argo) was the second ace of his team after Baby, both of them carrying the team in the previous round.

Why hidras

Just don't make that unit for competitive ZvP u.u


Stephano knows more than you do so he had a reason for going Hydralisk. You don't have to make excuses just because he didn't win. Stephano is known as one of the best ZvPers for a reason. Jaehoon just had his number and now that Stephano is in pro league his styles being analyzed by the Kespa pros who will break him down once they understand his style.

No one broke down his style. Stephano had the game won at the beginning but overcommitted to roach hydra at the 3rd. And then he was fucked.

I think cuz Protoss didn't have upgrades on the pressure, Stephano thought he could deny the 3rd repeatedly with roach-hydra and superior upgrades, force Protoss all-in, and force a favourable engagement. Protoss abused forcefields extremely well, barely wasting any and boom. GG.

The only crappy thing about this format is we see the same players every time. EgTl has so many players I'd rather watch.

Are you implying that you prefer watching EG-TL lose?

Eating your words now? Who would have guessed Stephano tried to win with mass roaches again. His play is so boring. Now leenock and drg, those are fun zergs.

Why would I be eating my words? You said EG-TL plays boring players in this format. They have to play their top tier players because every match they play is so close. They can't risk sending out a ThorzaiN or Zenio when it's constantly 4-3 3-4

It seems like to me Stephano got pigeonholed into expecting an all-in that entire game. He then figured (after over committing to roaches and hydras) he could just break Jaehoon's position and take out his army that spread out to defend the third. I have seen him do it on this same map several times. Except this game the timings were messed up and Jaehoon had excellent forcefields and did not grow attached to his third. The phoenix killed off a large number of drones while Stephano was moving across to disrupt Jaehoon's third.

Overall, it was great patience from Jaehoon and lack of it from Stephano that decided that game, imo.
Never make a hydralisk.

That's a good read on Argo's part into Stephano's style I feel. Totally abusing Stephano's tendency to overmake units when he's not sure about what his opponent is doing. Numerous small pushes but never committing, very similar to how Oz abused Steph during MLG arena.

Apparently trading Jaehoon for Baby was not a good idea. Oh well, still glad to see Jaehoon winning!

Oh zvp is a lot different in hots that's for sure lol. It's now toss being defensive and trying to get mass voidray/colossi(or templar) and then if it gets to a certain point in the game they win and zergs are trying to kill them before that point (or keep voidray + colossi count way down).

It's more action packed in hots at least I feel, still a dumb match up but not as bad as wol.
