This one is hard to call. I think herO will actually take it in the end.
|
I like them both and want both to advance...
|
hero is so cute in the proleague break interview thingy, roro is just on fire lately, gonna be a cool match
|
East Gorteau22261 Posts
Hopefully a better match-up than last night's lackluster series.
|
|
|
This will be a good match. I'm calling RorO to win, he's be destroying lately.
|
Both are very solid and upcoming kespa powerhouses. They surprise me each week in PL. Gonna give it to herO tho, I feel RorO's ZvT en ZvZ is far stronger than his ZvP. This might not translate through in HotS you may think, seeing what protoss is capable in HotS i give the CJ player the edge!
|
Come on Roro...time to stop being a SPL bonjwa and start winning some individual tourneys!

This will be a wonderful test to see if herO can become the new code B bonjwa by doing amazingly everywhere except code B.

Roro is playing so well lately. I would be surprised if he didnt win here even if it's HoTS and not WoL
|
this is live here
RorO fighting!
|
If nothing else, KESPA/Proleague has taught me one thing - always root for your team. Previously I would never root for Zerg over Protoss. Now... FUCKING KILL HIM RORO!
|
|
|
Yeah, good luck holding that with HotS Infestors, LOL.
|
That was a boring match 1 =(
|
Well it was slightly longer than yesterday
|
HOTS infestors aren't worth building in ZvP. 95% of the time teching fast vipers is the much better option. And they're planning on nerfing infestors more in coming patches too lol...
|
I don't understand why he cancelled that Spire tbh, he could have defended from the phoenixes with corruptors, which are also good against colossi. His creepspread was also too horrible for any ground play.
|
Well you can't hold that with 5 infestors and nothing else even in WOL,infestors needed that nerf.
|

even with wol infestor he would have been dead. cant expect to hold a 2 base coloss all in with 6 infestors and maybe 20 lings.

Significantly better, with the exact same stats...

Casters are really into hyping "new" units, I've found. Even the Hydralisk, which hasn't really changed aside from the speed upgrade, seems to be called "really good" regularly now. Which is weird, because... No.
|
Hydras are much better, but not because of hydra speed. They're much better because of vipers.

Hydra still the worst zerg unit. But it will be built for a bit at the start because people the Infestor got changed and casters take more time to get used to.
Don't know why people think speed was the hydras biggest weakness.

Hero 106/0 supply.
He's dead.

Hero is dead, he should´ve hidden the pylon. No way he´s gonna win this.

In ZvZ maybe. As for PvZ, this was a fairly special situation. herO had no anti-air besides his Stalkers which are only single-target. With a few storms on top of a time warp things could have ended up differently.

Ugh, I couldn't disagree more. It's really ugly and not functional. Swapping between bases on a main screen every 20 seconds is much better, as watching auto-attack on a nexus or lair isn't very interesting to begin with in a base trade.
|
Wish hero would have attacked, just because
|
Well, they play it like it's WOL, so David Kim and Dustin Browder have nothing to watch here.
|
Vote on the recommended games in the OP!
|
I'm only dropping in now, neither of the players are any good at HotS I'm guessing?

Good to see mutas are still good.

Well... doesn't seem to be a genius idea to let the Kespa players play HotS. Most of them haven't even played it much and thus play just WoL... PartinG was pretty good tho, i think.
|
You have to wait for the SPL to finish so they can start to learn HOTS. Now they just play it like it's wol

Interestingly, I conduct all my posting in entish, which, as you might know, takes a long time and henceforth translate from entish, which isn't very fast either.

with all due respect to both of them, i think they are a good casting duo but i can't listen to Axeltoss by himself. his solocasting combined with how boring these games actually are has prompted me to switch over to real talk...
|
they're trying hard to build no hots units/upgrades.
|
I only now realized it's Hots.
|
A wild mothership core appears at 20 minutes!!!
And 10 seconds later it leaves the game again.

Yes it's almost as if it's not allowed to make them - only that one match with oracles and the mothership core at times.

Yep, RorO is even better. I don't think he has done any HotS things yet.

Well literally the only thing it can do, which the Mothership Core cant, is cloaking your units.
And for that price, I wouldnt really say thats worth it

Wow this match is so stale - 0 harass or multi attacking.
~yay finally a tempest.

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/FUEN2yP.jpg) In just one month, HotS will be released.I tried it out recently. I still don't know much about it right now. I think there are a lot of areas that need fixing. As I was playing a lot of things really interested me. I think the UI is also really awesome. There are a lot of really fun features about the game. However, I'm disappointed that the mothership no longer can use vortex.
I think this game is when he learned! LOL!

NEVER good old bl infestor working quite well as it seems
|
Also herO isn't even trying to kill the broodlords, which melt really fast to air toss...
edit: he's a fast learner :D now he did.
|
Why is he not massing Voids?! He killed so many Infestors, I don't get it.
|
At first i though that they had an informal agreement to not use hots units It seems that zerg air can fight air toss which have been getting attention for being op.
|
|
|
Was Hero using Prismatic Alignment on the Void Rays at all?
|
C'mon HerO...
Need to end this quicker
|
Did hero ever use charge on his void rays? Didn't look like it.

It seemed like hero's first attempt ever at making tempests. These games are meaningless in terms of actual balance, just like pretty much every game played in the beta at the moment.

Well, HerO was way behind this game. And went for an archon toilet that was removed from the game. When he finally wanted to go air, he didn't have that much gas, so no voids nor HT for the initial engagement. After that we had 200 v 150 engagements until charity zerg ran out of mercy...
Also, apparently, if you a-move tempests they target broodlings...

He's not using the composition that people are complaining about. And I don't think he was using the ability that increases VR DPS at all.

I guess these are the first hots matches for herO.

Really? Did they? Hahaha. I thought it was hilarious enough they often attacked the 1000 corruptors... i mean they kill broodlords in like 3 shots, no? Although that ofc needs micro, but herO apparently just didn't know it as he DID do it when it was already way too late.

What did those Mutas accomplish in this game exactly?

I want to see herO at an MLG, but given this is effectively a WOL game, and the way it's being played out, I think Roro is gonna win

Well the last WOL round of proleague ends at 5 march, and mlg starts at 15 so they will have at least some days to practice (unless they get to finals of GSL)

Why is there a mothership in production....

What's with the mass overseers? Do overseers do something different in HotS?

HerO's HotS response to BL, infestor, corruptor is to keel over and die.
Edit: It's super effective.
|
I only watched game five but it looks like Hero doesn't know shit about HotS.
He held, but he is only using WoL stuff and doesn't utilize any of the things that improved HotS PvZ correctly.
|
so I'm pretty sure these are literally the first HotS games hero has ever played
you'd think he'd at least look at some patch notes or something before playing these games
|
He's still not using Prismatic Alignment. :D

because they are supposedly the players you want to see play at MLG, even if they don't know the game at all

Probably because you didn't read it.

Yay herO! Really glad to see him take this, he is such a qt.

PL round 4 begins in mid March, right? Right around the time HotS comes out? Maybe these guys will have begun to practice some HotS by the time they go to Dallas. Otherwise it'll be an interesting HotS tournament, with barely any Hots units. :p

Kinda disappointing to see that both roro and Hero probably haven't played a single game of HotS - takes away of the prestige of this qualifier. I truly wonder what MLG was thinking though, because most of the Kespa and GSL-Players probably play very little HotS, if any at all - why would they?

An all expenses paid trip to getting stomped in Dallas by somebody who played HOTS before. Most of the players who have switched over aren't fit enough to tie herO's laces, so I wouldn't be so sure..
Really? Neither of the players were playing the meta game at the top of the HOTS ladder... TBH all-ins aside any top 5-top16 GM HOTS player would win in a series versus either of them...
My favorite moment was when Hero warp fielded (slow fielded) corrupters. Read the tooltip... it only affects ground.
