Most of the people who failed (Lucifron, Kas, various zergs) didn't practice enough HotS. Most were under the impression IEM would be WoL but it was changed on such short notice.
Kas actually played HotS the majority of the time from what I remember the couple weeks.

Can anyone tell what they all have in common? If you're implying that snute was a 'patchzerg' then you clearly never watched any of his games... Snute was practicing WoL presumably under the impression that there would still be two big WoL tournaments left. Watch and see as after a few months Snute is back competing at the top level.
Snute has about as many Hots games as a lot of others and I bet Snute will not be able to compete at the level he did in Lings of Liberty.

Everytime I tuned in Kas was playing WOL. He switched very late compared to others and since he is one of the players who needs a lot of practice to feel comfortable it's even worse for him.

Snute is a nice guy. I met him long time ago in playhem when he wasnt progamer, and he was already number 1 GM while not being very known. He said that he was lucky and just had a lucky win streak. He is very nice guy, i like him.

man, wasn't that a fun time when zerg was able to defend everything without any real units? funny how only queens are not enough anymore!

Testing. No table tag in TL sucks.
2 = series win
1 = series loss with 1 map win
0 = series loss with 0 map win
Table Name Series (Map)
\ - 1 - 1 - Sting 0-2 (2-4)
- \ - 2 0 2 Socke 2-1 (4-2)
2 - \ 2 - - MaNa 2-0 (4-2)
- 0 1 \ - - Snute 0-2 (1-4)
2 2 - - \ 2 viOLet 3-0 (6-2)
- 0 - - 1 \ VortiX 0-2 (1-4)

Zerg players have to totally revamp their style in hots, wait some time before throwing words like UP or Patchzerg.

Can anyone tell what they all have in common? Now tell me why Nerchio who lost to superior players with Yonghwa and PartinG and ret who only lost to YoDa only made it out due to luck? OH ZERG IS SO WEAK. Yet you have violet topping his group right now... jesus. He was not trying to say zerg is too weak in hots, but that the 4 mentioned players are patch zergs. Yeah. I just thought it was funny how the zergs that had success before the "patch" are still going strong (Nerchio, Ret, Violet) but these guys are doing terribly. Of course there are other factors involved, but still pretty funny to see. You act like they came up after the patch, won everything, never won anything after again. MC did win a ton, he's out now. Patchtoss? LucifroN had a very good run, Patchterran... just because players came up at a time where their race was strong, doesn't mean they got strong because of a certain change. I can assure you that no one rises from not skilled to top tier with just one change.
I'm just pointing out something that seemed like a funny coincidence to me, I don't actually think players like Vortix are bad or undeserving players. Chill.

Snute wasnt bad vs terran in wol. How could he be, the winrate was like 36% in gsl tvz.

Why is dropping roaches on top of the army considered good? The drop-out speed of units is slow, so every roach gets instagibbed?

That was some pretty good multitask just tearing Snute apart. Not much more to say

absolute roflstomp, Sting tooooo good!

They need to put the in-game sound, otherwise it's simply dull :[
