Ling/Bane vs Ling/Bane is basically the very 4 gate thing you just said you enjoyed but with far far far more micro involved from both parties. Those ling/bane wars to both play and watch are a very unique experience that actually make me want to play more zerg.

The idea that micro isn't what won Life this series is incorrect. He won the first game on the back of mostly his micro. I'll admit that the second game was partly a BO win, but that you dislike ZvZ does not make the match-up rock paper scissors (it can be, sometimes, admittedly) - the match-up is just extremely punishing, fast-paced and intense.
Edit: As for ling/Bane vs. ling/bane; that's basicly the micro war (which you claim to enjoy?) of ZvZ.

oho GSL, playing LIFEhouse
I have so many jokes to make with "Creator" versus "Life" ...

No thats just the new global standard for 2013 with their flash player :p
Watch via Twitch instead.

Go watch Leenock vs Life from IronSquid.
Probably one of THE best ZvZ ever.

Hey thanks for the link. Is there any way to use my GSL ticket via Twitch or do I need yet another ticket to watch through twitch at anything greater than 360p?

But it's micro on the level of 100mph units and 1mph banes, i agree it probably takes more micro than 4gate vs 4gate, but i haven't seen a ling bane game that has made me go, oh wow nice play ;_;
Guess it is just my personal preference! xD

Yeah i enjoy micro wars but on that level it seems silly, would be the equivalent of micro'n chargelots vs stalkers, it's just silly.
OFC take my posts with a pinch of salt, i am pretty biased as i have never liked ZvZ unless it gets passed the Ling/Bane stage, then imo it becomes an enjoyable match up.
Macro normally prevails, or the perfect timing attacks.

wow what's up with this music. it's nice but, not very gsl-esque

Is there anything that involves more micro then ling/bane wars?

Why can't they just play all happy Kpop? T_T

Atm you need another ticket but i would hold off for a moment. There is no way then can risk having payed costumers pay twice and will most likely find a way around it.

The slayers drama stuff when talking about practice ban blah blah blah said that Prime pretty much practices with everyone though so I'm sure Creator found some good zergs

And that's perfectly fine!
As for LifevP; I think it's still (among) the best in the world. He had Parting to practice with for a long time, and I wouldn't be surprised if they still play together. If not, well, Life is still the best >.>
