oh and by the way, my favorite "anti-Snute" build is Stardust's 10gate (or was it 11? still hilarious)

That was only game 1, don't get your hopes too high people haha

He looked completely helpless against this style, which has beaten him before. So I think it's fair to call this a favorable matchup for the Zerg right now.

I'm just saying this isn't some scrub. herO is gonna be able to adapt and improve as the series goes, plus he may have some tricks up his sleeve

Why don't ppl(especially toss) just cheese the hell out of Snute. Seems the best way to beat Snorehost is to not let them happen. If you lose cheesing or lose to Sh, it's still a loss so take your chances.

seriously madals is casting rain vs forgg? quite a shame.

...Why is that a bad thing?

Oh god those widow mines

I actually like Madals. Unlike many of the top-tier casters, he doesn't shout whenever something slightly exciting happens, and he also has a more diverse vocabulary. I've noticed the past few months that most casters basically repeat the same couple of phrases over and over.

The most hilarious is the use of the verb "to fall". As far as I know that is usually used in some kind of dramatic, heroic context("the fall of Rome"), but in SC2, even SCV's can fall. Even though all that happened was that a scouting SCV was taken out by the first pack of zerglings of his opponent.

Most casters' vocabulary is actually extremely limited if you start paying attention to it.

But if Snute knows you'll cheese him he won't wait for SHs and will play aggressive, just look at his series vs. sOs from IEM Toronto

Yeah, some casters get really annoying that way, repeating the same stuff over and over and over.

I really hope herO wins so Apollo stops with the Snute-hype on twitter. Very annoying with the foreigner bias.

I guess its alright to complain if he is posting that on your twitter, otherwise...
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

That pool first theory is really interesting, I think it comes down to preference of what early game advantage you want.
