Yeah I totally see what you mean. Violet played it well, but I feel he should've transitioned, he traded armies a lot, but didn't really damage TaeJa, and TaeJa build an ultra-counter army.

You have a point... but it was also a sloppy engagement. Attacking through a long corridor, into a concave, and sieged tank and with limited b-cloud. If someone came me those unit numbers, I'd say the Z wins.

God I forgot how good Taeja can be. Really impressive play so far especially when you consider he is in code S still and has been able to play only very little because of his wrists.

Just my thinking, but wouldn't it be better to go into BLs rather than Ultras to transition out of Roach/Hydra? The Terran would be pumping Tanks and Marauders rather than Vikings and Ravens, so the BLs could go unopposed. But I guess the tankiness of Ultras helps the Hydras.



yea thats true but once you already have vipers out they're always gonna make ultras a lot better

I think Zergs have got a bit overconfident or overestimated the power of Ultras in late-game. They are much better, but not by a huge degree to the point where you should be building only Ultras. I've seen many top-tier Zergs do this, because the BL switch works better than Ultras once the Terran is building anti-armor units rather than anti-air, but their insistence on Ultras kills them in the late-game. BLs still should be used in late-game to counter that reliance on Marauders and Tanks.

I want Taeja to win but I hope Violet will take at least one game from Taeja just because I want to see more of this series.

It hypes me up to see taeja playing so well, hopefully he looks like this in WoL for his match against RorO.
