Control, value and tempo all have meanings outside of hearthstone o-o


I would say though that with weak(-ish) English speakers, mainly Rotterdam but also Bitter struggles a lot in sentences and finds himself not too rarely being forced to redo them on the fly/forgets what he was trying to say, when they get something stuck on the brain they tend to overuse it. So on point I wouldn't be surprised if it was due to Hearthstone they are using it.

Suppy not wanting to give JD advice makes me sad, he should totally help JD out. He plays the MU just wrong, and it's kind of incumbent on team mates to help each other put. Major is completely right. If he has better results but loses every ZvT, something is wrong.

I'd say ZvT is even zerg favoured right now.


To be honest it wasn't best JD's matchup in 2013 as well.
He was even consulting with Scarlett a lot about matchup and how to play it.
And Bomber enjoys this kind of game when he can just fight mutalingbane all day.

Which was probably a good idea. He should have kept working with her, then maybe both of them would be in the next round.

Sorry, still sour about Scarlett, so bummed. I feel like a dick now.


It's ok, i still feel bad about Nani and this pretty girl who has nickname of Scarlett.
Hope Katowice will give me a cure lol.

Control hasn't been used by itself but "Map control" is common. Maybe HS just helped them drop the "map"


What's the context? They use "control" all the time referring to unit control.

Not like unit control referring to micro. He's talking about when they say "x player is controlling the game" as in controlling the pace, forcing units at certain times, drawing the opponents army to different locations. I, for one don't really think it's because of Hearthstone, but they have been saying it more often (not like they never did before)

Is it just me or are casters using a lot of HS terms now? Value, control, tempo, i don't recall these terms been used in SC2 in the past, maybe I'm just noticing it more because of HS.


I thought Value crossed over from dota 2. Tempo was something Artosis always used. Control is definitely HS though.


I guess, maybe I'm just noticing value a lot more now since that's pretty much the soundbite of HS, just find it a little weird when I hear Apollo say "he needs to extract some value out of these Hellions". I have no recollection of Artosis using tempo, but if you say so (I don't get the chance to watch much GSL).

Tempo is a classic, its used even in chess.


Tempo is used differently in Chess though.

His ZvT is still higher rated than his ZvP

That is not very relevant to how he plays right now though, which is what matters. This trend has been ongoing since the the beginning of 2014. Right now, ZvT is clearly his worst MU, and he does not play it like ZvT is supposed to be played.

I feel like it's underused on 4 player maps, it's hard to scout things anyway

I guess, it's ok on Frost.
Double expanding is a gamble even for Bomber but rax-cc is reasonable.

Do you think it's a viable standard build or would it just get picked apart if every one was doing it?

I don't think it can be used as a standard since Zerg can probably use some timings to cripple/kill the Terran when he's going from 3 to 10 rax.

To be honest I haven't seen a ton of Jaedong's ZvT recently, but he seemed to prioritize taking a fourth a little too early which was Bomber's point of focus. Should probably get a larger standing army first. IDK i don't play zerg.
