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.

Not really, Swarm Hosts can be extremely good versus Collosus actually.

Grubby right now is playing way better than he has on his stream the last couple of days, looked so shaky he had me worry quite a bit!

It occasionally works when protoss messes up or is caught by surprise.
It was a bit better on daybreak where you could split the map with planetaries.

waoh, just starting to see Hots playing out. That game was absolutely exciting. (Grubby vs. TLO, g1) I hope the remainder of games tonight look as cool as this. Then, I'll look very very much forward to all the Hots tournaments and the future of SC2 in general.

It's not a build order win considering that Grubby scouted the lack of 3rd and responded accordingly. Build order wins refer only to accidentally countering using the starting build order.

Grubby basically is the Roger Federer of sc2. In pratice he never performs 100% but rather tries out new things or even does some VERY stupid mistakes. In tournament games though he rarely has holes in his play. This has been the case for his wc3 career and did not really change after his switch to sc2.

No, they said on the stream Grubby knows TLO goes crazy with Swarm Hosts. So Grubby probably inferred that with the mass creep spread, 2 bases, and Roach presence (so he knows it probably isn't Mutalisks).

no, he put down the first robo right when he saw there was no 3rd. At least from what I saw on stream...

I kinda agree with the first part, though I don't see how you can say that for his time when he played wc3 - no way to know how he did back then in practice as twitch and its counterparts have not been established... of course if you are one of his earlier practice partners I concede defeat x-D

No.. no one goes double robo that early, ever.

Cloud is one of the worst maps for mass mutas. On most maps you can defend bases pretty easily with mass spines and just fly around with your mutas doing whatever you want but not on cloud.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

Once the balance gets tweaked to this game, and the meta is more figured out it's going to be pretty fun to watch. These games are selling HoTS to me pretty well.

EDIT: As in lots of action all around the map, lots of positional play. I'd like to see TLO do actual compositions and not just massing one unit though...
