Well, Scarlett's ZvT is definitely up there.

She straight up outplayed him. Twice. Once on a map with a gold base. I don't know where this Idea came from that Bomber just derped in those games, he played his regular brand of TvZ. Scarlett was just better than him, period.

It is not the same thing. Maru played mech and Bomber opened with marine - tank push into bio+mine in game 1 and he ditched mines completely in game 2.

Not sure what would you expect as different. Sky terran ?

Shouldnt SK have been more aggressive harassing bombers bases with his mutas? Muta vs pure bio isnt very good, sure picking off medivacs is nice but he could have been doing more dmg harassing.

Bomber is typically very late with his expos, he seems to want to keep a tight cluster of bases that are easy to defend, and then rely on macro to overwhelm the zerg before he needs more bases.

Anyway, seeing this kind of puts Scarlett's wins at red bull and IEM over Bomber into perspective.


I didnt see bombers main to much but im guessing he had 1 turret at most as usual. He had none at third. Mutas are garbage in actual fight against pure bio so I think breaking the parade and possibly damaging production/economy is what you should use mutas for vs this. Scarlett is way more active with her mutas.

Bombers unit control has been exceptional today though, so good

banelings work perfect against pure bio if you're not a-moving your banelings. he also made roaches which was like the worst choice he could have possibly made.

at least he tried to flank but he spent so much money getting out useless roaches he basically killed himself


Do they have a higher target priority than banelings? I'd have thought they were just to get the banelings close, but the splits were so ridicuous and the re-enforcements so constant that it wasn't gonna work.

I'm curious why zerg player don't make infestor vs bio anymore?



Too much gas cost I guess with Mutas.

Mutas much better vs drops so can't go Infestor only for that

I feel like when he stopped muta production to make the roaches he should've been going with infestors. Hold down the bio so he can't split and connect with extra banelings instead of attacking with roaches and maybe he takes a few more fights efficiently, especially if he doesn't lose any of the infestors.


Yeah it seems like that wouldve been the way to go, but I'd have to assume he's used that kinda of play before and had some success with it, he probably just didn't expect such ridiculous macro like bombers to tear his army down.

Yeah the constant aggression and continuous push after Bomber's just lost a large army probably surprised him into making a few panic roaches, and I guess if you don't expect constant aggression like that you may not be prepared to throw some infestors into your army.

Indisputable evidence that Scarlett > Soulkey


Bomber is very inconsistent player. Not sure if any conclusions can be made when someone beats/loses to Bomber.
It all depends on which Bomber shows up.

Scarlett played ZvT in a way that dealt with Bomber better.

i can only assume it was for them to soak damage. maybe if he had done hyun style where he opens with roachlingbane and skipped mutas it would have worked, but transitioning into roaches was really bad

There was one game for sure that was kind of balanced on a knife's edge and Bomber made a few too many mistakes. That said, making no mistakes is part of the game so Scarlett absolutely outplayed him there. Scarlett's ZvT is stupidly good.

He certainly did in the games he played mech Move commanding his whole army into a bunch of swarmhosts etc.
Scarlett is really good zvt though, probably in my top 5.

It all depends on which Bomber shows up.

People always ignore the clashes of styles, it's something Artosis loves to talk about though. But basically some players play in a way that counters another player, deals with them better. Some always lose to their nemesis because of stylistic reasons. That's actually one of the major reasons why these comparisons don't work.

Yeah but Bomber put so much pressure on that SK never had a chance too, he basically defends by attacking. The mutas are constantly needed to fight drops and parade pushes, they never have an opportunity to go and harass.

seriously i thought this target priority thing was dead.

every attacking unit has the same target priority. zerg cocoons and workers have less, that's all.

I love how this insta escalates into a balance discussion.
There is a reason t usually adds factory in tvz bio, you literally need a great map for pure bio like derelict and insanely good mechanics.
