women indeed tend to have multiple ones (and many men too), but Smix's looks like a watch-watch not a bracelet so it isn't so weird she wears only this one.

Yeah but look at everything that's going wrong. This is what a lot of people have been saying about him lately. It's like it's a different player. From a top25 world, to someone outside top250.

Well at this point there's no gas for range either. Completely out of shape. He should just go with the Korean meta, blink stalkers should be good for him.

The weirdest thing is that he was target firing his colossi on the hydras in the back, so he has to have noticed.

This isn't the break. This is Stardust going from a house full of players practicing with him to a house where he can only get really effective customs when Violet's not at the gym.

oh well ForGG, better go back to the random obnoxious hellbat/banshee/thor/scv pull variations then, there are plenty to choose from, one variation for every map. If you can beat someone like life with those builds im sure Sen wouldnt be too hard

There is always ALWAYS an opening for cloak banshees to abuse. Also, you kinda dont have to do too much damage, cus honestly just forcing 3 spores per base and 1 or 2 at front, as well as containing creep spread and 2-shotting stray queens makes it okay. Assuming you dont lose the banshees to the mutas of course

Yeah, its true also in TvT aswell. Just the threat of cloaked banshee's forces at least a proportional response which makes the cost justified in most situations

yeah, and its ridiculous cus if youre not very aware of the banshees positioning, they can just swoop in and kill a spore before the spore do any damage to the banshees, and then bam theres a huge opening with no AA and no detection. It is literally impossible to defend against banshees without taking damage when the banshee count hits 3+
EDIT: though admittedly, in most cases, you Lair will be finished so detection shouldnt be a problem at the point of that many banshees
Wonder why zerg players lose every time to small pushes from start from a player they know. Everyone knows that ForGG plays like this, just open roaches then? And make some extra spores vs probable mass banshees? This is not the hard part of this game, ok? Some zerg-players are just not good.

You must be mistaken, you actually dont have to do a lot of direct damage at any point in the game with forGG's style

Well, in Game 1 ForGG opened with double reaper into 3OC. If Sen blindcountered with a roach warren he would autolose against ForGG's bio play. It's possible to hold this stuff without playing super super safe anyway and not taking a build order loss to a macro build.

then you run into what Jim did yesterday. Everyone knows I all in? Fuck it I'll macro and have a ridiculous advantage. Its why scouting is so good.
Also with the changes to SH Zerg are still trying to figure out the response to mech, at least from what I've seen/experienced

Terrible games Sen played so bad and got owned by those banshees. TWICE. So disappointing. Late lair, no response at all to the banshees he got rekt and outclassed UGH

ForGG played bio the next time they played. In his post-game interview ForGG said he didnt use mech because he was saving the strat for WCS.

But ForGG does that with banshees and hellions. If you know with 80% that he does this, than prepare the spores when he ads additionally two banshees and don't lose 8 queens. This is on pro level and I don't accept that.

To lose vs him isn't the same as losing to the same tactics a lot of times.
In his last 4 games vs Bbyong, Life lost to the exact same hellbat timing.
The fast third style vs T is just so hard to defend now with all the buff T received : hellbat/banshee, and no SH anymore to prevent this kind of mech slow push, or to try to come back when behind, so nearly everyone plays 2 base mutas vs T.

Nah, Huk is a pretty terrible player atm. He really hasn't been good since WOL
Is there anyone that prefers loser's match first? I don't get the reason why they have it. Unless I'm following a certain player, it really kills the hype for the group.
It sucks even more because of the bad broadcast times, it's time to sleep for us europeans! :D

And make some extra spores vs probable mass banshees? This is not the hard part of this game, ok? Some zerg-players are just not good.
You must be mistaken, you actually dont have to do a lot of direct damage at any point in the game with forGG's style
But ForGG does that with banshees and hellions. If you know with 80% that he does this, than prepare the spores when he ads additionally two banshees and don't lose 8 queens. This is on pro level and I don't except that.
So what you are prepared, you now have 9 drones less cus of spores, delayed upgrades cus of a faster Lair, and your creep is contained. and that's assuming you defended the lethal pressure of marine medievac hellbat without losing more than a queen or 2, cus you actually need to constantly queue queens in order to come out of that okay, and unless your crisis management is amazing you will fuck up and either make a lair without additional queens, or queue up queens and not get a lair
Barring a perfect hold, which is largely impossible against a player with as much experience as forgg, and as good control as forgg, you will be fucked in some way no matter what
Okay, so lets assume the hellbat medievac marine, and banshee follow up did minimal ish damage. You now have shit creep spread, feel forced to go muta to counter the 3-4 banshees, and if you are lucky you have decentish upgrades going, at least enough to rival the terran upgrades. CONGRATS YOU'RE NOW ON EVEN FOOTING, HOPE YOU'RE GOOD AGAINST MECH
One one side of the studio, Nate is talking to fans and saying "I wish the Zergs I played on ladder were that greedy:, and on the other side, I hear Gretorp telling Sen "No, you were still ahead on workers at that point" And "the Medivac give him too much heal".

Stardust barely eeked past NA WCS qualifier and Huk, and PvP was usually one of his stronger match ups. I'd probably favour huk over stardust in this group lol
Nah, Huk is a pretty terrible player atm. He really hasn't been good since WOL
yeah fair enough, point is, stardust is pretty shit right now as well. But hey, there's always the great protoss book of bullshit

Maybe the winners since the winner of the 2nd pair gets more time to rest/prepare? I dunno. As a viewer I certainly prefer seeing the winners' match first.

At least the blink stalker era is over
In a way though that was kind of easier, because at least you knew what every protoss was going to do. Bronze leaguers would still go cannon rush, everyone else would go blink stalkers.
The hardest part about playing vs protoss allins is the great guessing game. Ebay/turrets/marines counters dts and oracles, and virtually ensure that you lose vs blinkstalkers, because lack of bunkers and marauders at critical timings is a death sentence.

nope, but ask yourself this. Has there ever been a map as bad as Jungle Basin since then?

Proxy in Starcraft doesn't mean closer. It just means outside your base.
On some maps we've seen proxy Stargate that was further away than if they were in the player's base.
No, proxy means outside of your base closer to your opponent. Everything else is just hidden, but people call it proxy because reasons.
Sorry dude. But what I describe is what it has come to mean over time. It's quite clear if you watch all casts, that outside main and nat = proxy.
If I hide a twillight and shrine cross on Cactus, the casters would say proxy. Because that's what the word means in SC terms.
It's wrong terminology that's been accepted. Wolf even recently acknowledged that calling it a proxy is technically wrong but they just call it that anyway.
Nevermind the fact that calling what Stardust did a "proxy nexus" is ridiculous. It's a hidden base. Proxy nexus implies offensive use.

Yes, his queens were also running through marine fire, Idk, if he could have avoided that. But I think, the techlab was outside of the bunker range, so the lings could have killed that.
uggggggh forGG rekt sen with banshees, why is toodMing making the exact same mistakes. he should have known that forGG would have built a banshee which would have roflstomped the proxy hatch push, but he did absolutely nothing about it.

Not really tbh. No real control issues. I guess ForGG's bunker placement was litterally perfect. He got behind in workers. Like 10 to 17, but with 2 cc's he caught up vs a 1 base zerg, and tech just allowed him to crush Tood after the hold. He was very close to not holding, but Tood should win when he has 3 spines before Forgg has a single unit. If he can't win every time vs anyone in that position, the build is just not good enough.
Or he feels Forgg is just so much better, that a normal game is pointless. So throw something new at him and pray the respond is less than optimal.

Toodming messed up letting the hellions kill that many drones early, without that he would've been far ahead.
He actually didn't. If you are talking about the 4 hellions when he was moving roaches forward. His own roach attack did much much more damage. So if he had kept them back to defend, his position would end up worse.

yeah the isp around there is throttling the internet or something like that, because you shouldn't be lagging with that speed haha
Nah. I actually know what it is. It is actually Twitch that causes it (to little bandwith for certain IP ranges). It hasn't lagged in a long time. Guess it's our turn again..
It's weird because toodming had an overlord scouting forgg and saw the tech lab star port but refused to make spores at all. Really weird, guess he was just prepping defense for the Hellbat push.

hell just roll you over at 15 minutes if you go balls out on holding his hellbat push and alter your build...
oh man it kinda sucks that I won't be able to watch really any of the round of 16 and playoffs this season, especially since i enjoyed last season's finals so much and it's at a reasonable time zone
Hey you can't expect everyone to know everything. To be frank, I don't care about the conflict in China. Not dismissing the issue, but just not interested.
I am just interested in their nationality (or what nationality they identify with).

So you consider yourself as the liver of a duck?
In that case I am a member of United Slices of Pizza.

Taiwanese is not really a legit nationality.
Regardless of whether you call Taiwan "Taiwanese" or "Republic of China", both Mainland China and Taiwanese people self-identify by the ethnicity of "Chinese" so why does it even matter.

For the whole Chinese/Taiwanese debate. Chinese is both a nationality and an ethnicity. People in Taiwan might not consider themselves PRC Chinese, but no one denies that they are Chinese in heritage (Han Chinese or some other minority).
So it wouldn't necessarily be wrong to refer to Sen and Toodming both as Chinese.

What a pointless comment. The Chinese zeros played terribly. They are at the pro level. They repeatedly got wrecked by the same unit and didn't adapt for it. Plain as day to anybody. If it were my job to play video games you damn well better believe I'd learn from my mistakes

you heard it here first: progamers are good because they're progamers, they're not progamers because they're good. and sometimes progamers are actually bad and forum posters are better

why you getting so mad because im pointing out the obvious. it was a very disappointing showing. clearly they were not good, because both chinese zergs got beat by the same unit, repeatedly. as much as id love to see the chinese beat the koreans it was not going to happen with that kind of bad play. forgg didnt even cheese or anything, he just built banshees. that's it. all they had to do was respond to the banshees that were coming. given how badly the banshees kept mauling them, its just common sense to prepare for them next time.
but you heard it here first you have to be a progamer to point out obvious mistakes

ForGG has a 121 wins - 84 losses (59.02%) record in TvZ including series wins over HyuN, Life, Symbol, Solar, Leenock, Snute, and Jaedong, he's made hellion into hellbat and banshee in every TvZ since like 2012? Next you will tell me people are not progamers because they lose to Maru making the same units (marine marauder medivac mine) in TvP?
I've discovered one of the best parts of attending live events: listening to people in the know chatting after the show. I just heard Huk having a conversation with Nightris and someone else about that Korean Skype thing (I only know how to pronounce it, not spell it) before they had to start the Stardust interview. (I saw the Pet and Bunny interviews before, they'll all probably be used in the Toronto production.)

Do you see the irony in you post?
He hold what was meant to hold. No irnoy. SEN is also a lot worse player but he at least held the first obvious push.
