herO generally does slightly better than Zest vs T, no?

good try by soulkey.
i think it's extra stress to reform and recalculate your gameplan when you have an obvious strategy in your mind already.
having a forward base like that often means you can rally and kill when your opponent is placed against the ropes.

hindsight is that i was hoping he'd invest in some defence for his 4th, even static D.
he knew that hero was desperate at that point and loves his warp prism play in order to draw par.

faster upgrades and faster vipers, obviously because you know at worse that hero is transitioning at the same time that you are.

this is all at a risk of getting outplayed in a late game minus a potential gold base and i really think that soulkey felt he was in a much better spot than he actually was.

I dont think it was luck the way he micro the stalkers and the way he snipped the fourth. He is the best player in the world period

Has there been an official ban on using any kind of hive tech? I don't understand why I have seen SoulKey use only roach-hydra from start to finish.

Aside from vipers, that is

because other than vipers, hive tech is useless. Both ultras and brood lords are very expensive to make work, it's not as simple as puttin the tech building and pumping them out.


Hmm, that's a shame. Wouldn't it have been a good idea for him to have a few infestors and mix in some zerglings that last game? There was no collosus tech. Or is this only feasible in theory? I just feel like SoulKey needed to tweak his tech/army composition instead of continuing to engage mobile blink stalkers with his "putty blob" of roach-hydra.

No, no, you got it all wrong. When zerg or terran player wins its all skill, if protoss wins its just all luck/imba blink/imba ff and he should play a real race .
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

Because he loses to top terrans just as much as Zest does.

My sentence wasn't clear so I try to reformulate. It goes like: you can have a worse understanding of a match-up yet have better performances than an overall weaker player with a stronger understanding of said match-up.

Yeah, and Zest's understanding of PvT is very good. His winrates don't show it.
