That's honestly his biggest strength, there are other top foreigners with comparable mechanics and control, but Snute is so cerebral, he has the kind of long term vision many others lack.

Sorry buddy but that is only cause you are predisposed to hate anything with swarmhost. If you can't appreciate all the crazy stuff that happened that game you may as well not watch at all.
Agreed. I think Ravens may actually be a bit too good, but Snute's play was just brilliant. Neural parasites, tons of abducts, making sure his infestors never got in range of the tanks, blinding clouds on the turrets, constant infested terran drops, back and forth base swapping... Just an absolutely insane game. Snute's ZvT is just beautiful to watch. His first game vs. jjakji and g1 and g3 vs. MMA proved that Snute just is one of the most creative and solid Zergs right now and definitely the best outside of Korea.

What? I'm a protoss and TvZ is my favorite matchup to watch, but that was just disgusting as hell. My opinion is that there was nothing amazing watching an hour long game and knowing the result all the way from the point Snute started sitting on swarmhosts.
As you mentioned before you're an MMA/Acer fan and have been doing nothing but hate on whatever MMA loses to. The abducts, fungals, battles at multiple locations constantly, mind control. You may be a psychic but I don't think anyone else knew he was going to win that.

nice joke bro
Sorry, no joke. I know we all hate him, whatever. But using your brain, you should see MMA could take some advices from him, period. Just open your mind and think a bit.
Other than that, pretty cool game.
There are Korean Terrans who know how to play mech much better than MMA—Flash, Mvp, Bbyong...

May sound funny, but when it come to mech Avilo look more solid to me
Avilo may have a better understanding of mech units but he plays passive because he's too slow to play anything else, its not some genius strategy by him.

Only if that's 5 different people voting 1 star. That was an awful game to watch.
I almost feel like we aren't even fans of the same game if you think so... This was edge-of-my-seat attention gripping from the very start.
Tight early game hold, followed by MMA coming SOOOOOOO close to hitting a timing (like 15 seconds earlier first push and he'd have denied and either won outright or snowballed out of control).
Then longggggg game of constant high level positioning and engagements, there were so many cool situations where different bases were running out requiring repositioning, which opens up new paths of attack for the terran. MMA almost stabilizing the bottom would have been game, snute managed to manage 2 separate fronts and deny reinforcements and just barely broke it... it was an insane game.
Snute's army control was definitely better than MMA's in the end. It highlighted a difference in experience in these ultra lategame ZvMech situations imo.
