That is in Wings of Liberty, a complete different game. Also, that was a ZvZ. ZvZ's are the easiest the come back from.

Why is it easier to recover in a series (not individual games) when it's ZvZ?

You hate Zest, right ?

No, not at all. I just think he's extremely overhyped and isn't as good as the KT Rolster fanboys think. I'm impressed when someone like Maru, when his race is weak, consistently makes runs in GSL/still has success. I'm not impressed when someone like Zest, right after his race is buffed in a patch, suddenly has individual success, then drops off to Code B level when their race is no longer overpowered.

I don't hate any player.


What patch are you talking about?

These two:

And what patches took place there?

Do you not know? It's pretty easy to look them up on liquipedia.


I see how it is. That overseer speed patch sure helped Zest's winrate.

During that time the oracle was buffed and in February/March the mothership core was nerfed. That's all.

Mirror matches are easier to come back from because if a player just kills some workers, he is ahead. Think about it, Life is down 3 games, then readjusted his builds and killed a few workers early in the next 4 games. Against Protoss or Terran, killing those few workers is negligible because of chrono and mules. In mirror matches, two good players mirror each other, but with a few workers missing, that player is behind.
