Artosis's Kespa player bias is really starting to get on my nerves. Same thing happened in the Life vs Zest series.


Artosis just likes macro zerg players. He has always liked them. Hell he was more biased to DRG in DRG vs Flash.

is soo really a "macro player" by zerg standards? tbh i feel like i would put soo way way to the aggressive end of the spectrum if we're talking about actual top level zergs


He is actually incredibly diverse. So it makes him harder to pin down. But he does play great macro style.

He was definitely more aggressive last game (bane bust) but of course has amazing macro behind that!

He plays safe early and agressive later, still have as much stuff as greedy zergs XD

I think DRG goes for more mutas and does an amazing job sniping medivacs mid engagements. But soO splits better vs mines imo

It's DRG's muta micro. He just knows where to be with them.

soO needs way more gas than he gets, i noticed he was ALWAYS starved for gas last game, and as you noticed he always had too few mutas, vs scarlett drg jd always have nice numbers of mutas...that in my mind is the big weakness for soO

I think he marries macro and aggressive very well together, if that makes sense.

yea but my point was kind of that zerg is a race that plays on such an economic tightrope that if you're a top level zerg you are almost a macro zerg by default, so saying "macro zerg" is a redundant thing that makes me think of your snutes or scarletts who are really only in the zone with compulsive greed (i know they can do aggressive things too but it's not what they're known for)

oh yea, i havent really noticed soO's wm snipes and micro prior to that game and it was incredible to see, only scarlett's muta hit squads were better in my mind...but yea DRG mutas are insane
