Dat throw....rigged game?

Throw? Zest has controlled this game from start to finish.

agree, there is no throw



Well, silver league engagement is a throw. Maxed out vs maxed out with good composition should not end up like this. Worst engagement ever at pro level I believe.

Lol you don't know what you're saying. That engagement was almost as good as he could get. His composition was off, but the engagement was not nearly as bad as you're making it out to be



Well, giving all ultras for free one by one. Once done, move the rest of the army but keep half stuck and not shooting cause not managed propreley. If this is not a throw I don't get it.

Everything that Zerg has sucks against Protoss late game deathball. That's why you need SH +mass spores.

I blame the map for this, there's no reason for protoss to ever move out until 4+ bases and a mass colossus/storm/void ray army

Life abused infestor/broodlord in WoL even though it didn't fit his style but somehow refuses to make swarm hosts in HotS.

The map just sucks. There shouldn't be a map where the Toss can get 4 bases THAT easily. It's just stupid because the Zerg either goes for the retardet SH style or loses.

I think - eventhough Life was obviously behind - this game perfectly illustrates that Zerg has no answer against Protoss 10K/10K deathballs. Beside swarmhosts.

That's why I think it's wrong to blame players for using them. It's more about blaming Blizzard for designing ZvP lategame this way.


I don't agree. If life had been on equal macro footing he would have more latitude with his composition, and he would have the faster remax after a battle which would give him a fighting chance. The map was the main problem here.

I just don't like how the first three bases are. You wall your natural right away. Then when you take your third you just wall that ramp. Then you can just plop your army by that ramp and defend that wall and the fourth with ease. Not a great layout imo, especially for someone like Life who would want to pull the army away then runby into the natural or something. Only one avenue to attack aside from the rocks
