Seriously BO1? Apart from the RorO First game this was painful to watch.

An unexpectedly strong PvZ. He kind of fell apart at times during the game with RorO but he straight up smashed Leenock.

Well he only had to prepare one match-up. That one.

How. What? I can't even. Why are zerg players more hurt by Bo1 than other races. It makes literally no sense.


Think harder.
If a lesser Zerg player has more chance to advance in ZvZ (than for instance a Terran does in TvT...), then in the later rounds undeserving Zergs might face deserving Protoss/Terran and get crushed.

Protoss relies a lot more on gimmicky build. Easier to prepare one than 7. Protoss has a lot more success in pro-league (bo1s) than they have in other tournaments with bo3s -> bo7s

By that logic a Bo1 format was a good move to give us more racial balance. Anything that reduces the number of zergs is a good move.

I feel like that might also be because kespa have deep protoss benches as well. Like, it might just so happen that there are a lot of them.

You know that we'll have 5 zergs and 2 toss in the Ro16 so far?

To be fair that sort of strat either fails horribly or smashes.

roro screwed up the defence a bit there, repositioning his spine crawlers at the wrong moment. Nice build from hyvaa though

Think harder yourself. PvP is just as volatile.

With terran it might be slightly better.

Yeah probably. I am not defending/arguing against bo1. I just explained why zerg usually have more problem in bo1s than toss

And as always protoss has to win with some tricky build : (


Protoss can get gimmicky at times. But it´s part of the game, isnt it?

The problem is this map. The main base is HUGE and Zerg cant build stuff everywhere, so there will be blind spots to warp in - especially early in the game when you dont have a crapton of Overlords to cover everything and with Phoenix running around killing them.

On the flipside Zerg are too greedy / lazy to put a creep tumor in their own main base and this allows them to be abused by such a strategy.

Even if you have a creep tumor, it takes too long if your units are not in position, dropping a sentry -> forcefield takes like 1sec. Have to scout it with an overlord or just have units in main in preparation.

What prevents you from having units in your main for the minute during which you are vulnerable to this strategy?

What happens if the drop "comes late" and you have moved the defending units out? With the faster Warp Prism it *might be* viable to build 2-3 Warp Prisms and start with 4 Sentries and 4 Zealots. Warping in stuff takes time after all and this would add an element of surprise to it. With several Warp Prisms you could have one of them to warp in stuff and the other(s) could be used to micro and save your units.

The only possibility seems to be a counter-attack and if you plan to use this strategy a tight wall and several cannons seems an easy enough defense.
If you cant say what you're meaning, you can never mean what you're saying.
