Let's not forget that Leenock failed to scout a handful of these drops and they proved to be very damaging. Information gathering is a huge part of starcraft, some could say that it is the most important part of strategy games.

Zerg needed another anti air unit, why blizzard gave vipers instead of fixing infestors i will never know.
The big problem is that zerg units simply suck in low numbers so dropps are like a kick in the nuts.
why no scourge

what does the zerg have? Leenock and life, maybe stephano and sen.

Racewise its so stack it just isn't fair. But skillwise, this is a great MLG to watch


the reason for that might be that they didnt qualify.....

True, but the reason for that is they qualifiers where played pre Hellbat nerf.

Yes because Leenock never had to play ling-bling-mutas without relying on infestors to counter heavy drop play from Terrans in the past right? Surely he wasn't doing just that for a year before the queen buff right?

Oh wait...

Guys, the game is a week old, stop freaking out about terran. You gotta remember zerg dominated MLGs and other tournies for months before this came out. Give it some time before you freak about balance.


We remember, but zergs spent year figuring out how to win with the tools they had. This just feels like terran has had it handed to them....

People stop with this whining, boost is at an advantage because it's an ability that needs to be reacted to, and since the game is young players haven't developed the correct responses yet. You need to shut up and wait

I actually think ret has a decent chance against Flash, Bly got very close to drawing the game @ 2-2 and there's no reason ret shouldn't be able to do the same.


Actually you might be very wrong. While i agree with you, Ret has said that he is having lots of problems and tough times against Terran.

I take it as Ret's weakest match-up.

Kinda funny that all the protosess who advanced were from mirror matches :p

All in all, the matches have been great. Love the format and the free 720p!

Oh wait...


Broham, for the last time. Leenock goes for a 2-base timing, gets supply blocked (because imba), does 0 damage, yes, he's behind against a 3-base terran.

From that spot, can the best TvZ player around be allowed to win the game when he multitasks like no other?

Innovation thanks you for your understanding.

Bly is a lot better in ZvT compared to ret. I don't think he will stand a chance.

You you realize that Life and Leenock is in the top 4 Zerg at least.
Stephano is a foreigner zerg that haven't adjusted well against koreans right now and certainly not HOTS.

2 of the top 4 Zergs vs 8 of the top 10 Terrans, gee I wonder why Zerg isnt doing better this tourney.

TB's point stands.

It doesn't, all the best Zergs but Life and Leenock lost in qualifiers

and all the best Terrans lost in the WCS KR qualifiers. It happens.
