The phoenix didn't do a lot of damage to Hydra but gave hero the possibility to take his 3rd despite having had the much weaker army. | ||

You don't like them, that's your prerogative and that's fine. Parting vs Flash was hardly a boring game to most people surely? | ||

Really try to like them but just can't, sry. Hero was in the perfect position right before winning the big fight with 4 colossus, immortal, stalker sentry against hydra ling and 4 corruptors and a few infestors and they keep saying that it's a terrible situation for Hero. C'mon im a diamond zerg and i know that being stuck on hydra ling if your opponent has the same amount of collosus as you have corruptors is terrible. GG by Hero though, nice fake | ||

Nop This game it was, but its because Hero's mindgame was so good that Hydra was far behind, so Hero just had to amove to victory. Hydras would have understood the build earlier, he would have had vipers by the time the push would have come, and Hero would have needed to play totally differently. | ||

Parting vs Flash was hardly a boring game to most people surely? I agree with the first part, nothing is killing SC2, it's doing fine. I also, however, don't like Protoss matchups, and I only felt Parting vs. Flash was a good matchup because Flash made it interesting honestly. Then again, I'm a whiner and have hated SC2 protoss since I found out warpgate and sentries were things. | ||

The double stargate indicates that he expected a muta response, but there was none. | ||

He wanted to fake the imo allin instead of doing it because it was already almost scouted. It's like cancelling your stargate after being scouted no ? Edit: and I was asking how it was terrible, not how HerO was lucky. | ||

Hydra was obviously just confused, facing something you've never faced before in proleague has to be a little bit nerve-wracking. | ||

The warpprism + the phoenixes delayed Hydra's push a lot. That's why he won. Hydra derped a bit by moving all his army to defend this.... But I think that even with half hydra's army attacking hero, with forcefields, hero could have hold this while his double robo was building colossus. | ||
