Hopefully in the finals we'll see some mech as it won't be a super important match.

I mean let's be honest. Other than Violet and MAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYBE Stephano.

Were there any Zergs even in attendance that are even close to the level of the 4 LG-IM players currently occupying the top 4 spots?

This result seems rather expected to me when I saw the brackets a couple days ago. The only real contest here was First vs Violet and even then I think First is an overall superior player.

IM just stacked this bracket too hard and they didn't bring any Zergs with them.


Nerchio

Since when is Nerchio Code S level?


Yeah after that game/series vs Mana...Nerchio is nowhere near the other Koreas at HotS yet.

Nerchio


No offense to Nerchio, but let's be fair here. If Mana could beat him what chance did he really have vs First, Yoda, Yonghwa or MVP?

Mana's good but those guys are on a different level.

Nerchio

I agree, so far Nerchio has shown best performence using muta-corruptor.

It could decide a Code S seed. Gom said they are announcing the 2nd one shortly. 3 of the last 4 players in IEM aren't in Code S and this is definitely a chance for Gom to seed someone as the first winner of a big HoTS tournament. Plus for $15k. sounds pretty important to me

The mutas successfully got him out of the Void Ray/Colossus invincible army at least. This composition is potentially defeatable, would've liked to see just a couple infestors mixed in.

Range phoenix look way too good against corruptors though, that should probably be looked at as I can't imagine they're intended to beat them.

It's not the Void Ray/Colossus but the Void Ray/archon/templar that is the problem. Zerg needs to kill the protoss or cripple him economically before the Protoss reaches that composition.


I think both of them are quite strong and only very specific counters apply to each, (maybe more sh/hydra oriented vs. the second composition while more hydra/viper oriented vs the first)

The templars replaces the collosus with PSI storm witch murders hydras due to their low HP so for all purposes as of anti ground army concerned both compositions are the same regarding power.


At least it is more microable and maybe a good zerg can dodge some of them

doesn't matter, even if you dodge them the hydras are so damaged that voidrays and archons with their splash damage takes out them relativley easy, and don't even get me started on if Protoss decides to have 4-5 zealots in his army.



Sure. By dodging I meant preemtively splitting and taking low damage from storms and also for the zealots and archons, the locusts work well. What we could agree on is that, in HOTS, is far more essential for zergs (at least from my experience) to scout protoss army composition.

A code s seed doesn't mean you are Code S level. Very few of the players that have gotten seeded have ever even made it past the first round.
