Probably he is just very good at this style which makes it difficult to get to him. If he defends your early push, he'll steamroll. If you defends his first push, he'll just continue to push relentlessly.

You're right. TooDming for 3rd. Vortix's wins were like last month or something. No way you can count those.

Apart from the question "what would you like to do" is also the matter of "how well do you do it".

Take a blink-stalker all-in for example. This is a build that any protoss could execute from silver league up. Still, if you hand the stalkers to MC he will tear through a huge pile of opponents before he hits someone who can stop him.

Same goes for Tefel I think. He tries to have perfect saturation and hit a very crisp and strong timing with his roach/hydra. Even if it fails he can go for a follow-up with some vipers. And recently Tefel hydras got a buff

Well, if you are good at one style you can keep using it unless it's an early game cheese. It's not like P/Z don't know what T will do in 90% of the time.

Relevant to this discussion of Tefel's builds.
The world is better when every background has a chance.
