It's nowhere near the top ZvZ from Life for instance, but there's some hope left. let's wait for the group nominations to see how the groups turn out | ||

And to be honest, if he hadn't all his sentry stacked at the same place and at the front, he would keep them and win the game without any problem in less than one minute. | ||

couldn't creator just moved back after killed all the lings? I mean still making pressure but just build the 3rd behind and fall back when its done... he was 22 workers ahead. I would say it would have been a better decision | ||

I don't blame him for keeping in the fight though--that was right down to the wire, and he had a good shot of ending it outright. | ||

More harvesters doesn't mean more economy if there is no more bases to match the number. | ||

It's maybe just a sad and pissed off moment but after the GomTvT and the zerg "imbalance" last year I can't find this game anymore exciting. And HOTS (for me) is also a disaster. SC2 just need some time to find a good balance, we are close to it but no, blizzard arrives with a complete new game. I'm going to cry in front of the last BW OSLs thanks Jangbi and crown prince to offer me this possibility. EDIT: Nevertheless I still recognize the good game made by Symbol I really like this player, but it's not the matter of my cries | ||

However, the thing that bothers me is that zergs have the most room for error in terms of defending 'unscouted' all ins. Symbol was up to 85 drones. He shouldn't be able to be that greedy AND still be able to hold. When terrans/protoss complained that they are getting all-n by zerg, the response is always that the terran/protoss was too greedy or didn't scout. But in this game, Symbol was the definition of greed, yet, he still managed to hold. | ||

But in this game, Symbol was the definition of greed, yet, he still managed to hold. The problem is that it really should have been an all-in in the first place. Creator attack arrived at a time when Symbol had already done the energy upgrade for infestors. So it is gonna be not that difficult to hold the attack for quite some awhile until Creator ran out of steam. He did kill a lot of worker and gain an economic lead, he could even pressure and expand behind his attack so it would not become an all-in too. | ||

If a Zerg 2 base all-ins a Protoss who has Sentries and High Templars with storm, and gets force-fielded and stormed to death, should we all complain that he died to free energy units? | ||

I would say it would have been a better decision Well zerg can catch up in workers extremely quickly and symbol had better tech out. So if Creator expands and goes home, he kind of has to keep producing units instead of tech in case Symbol attacks him with that better tech. If Symbol is left alone he gathers energy on his infestors and can produce a big army to support them quite fast and then most likely kill Creator's third. Remember, Symbol still had a 2 base economy up and running with the larva capability of 3 bases. That's enough to produce a TON of lair units which would be enough to kill creator's third and likely even his army. | ||

Go home, sac the pylon, build a Nexus. Maybe he didn't know the drone count, but he could have figured out that he killed 2 full drone pulls in that elongated fight. I don't blame him for keeping in the fight though--that was right down to the wire, and he had a good shot of ending it outright. 100% right. This game was not about imbalance, it was about all sentrys dieing to one fungal and Creator not using his lead to transition into makro. | ||
