Lilbow had an advantage going into that

because it's the only composition that works without a huge lead

but I'm sure you could coach pros to do better

Jinro, Stephano, Nani, Sen, Scarlett imo

EDIT Switched Huk out

even as a scarlett fan, Huk above Scarlett in an all time list for sure

that one is really hard, maybe Huk but a tiiiiiiiiny bit.... but im not sure


Stephano > Jinro > Naniwa > Scarlet > Huk for me


I feel like Idra needs to get in there somewhere. Pretty good GSL performances, an IEM Gold. And Sen. Sen while barely playing is still a champion. IIRC the tournament he won in HotS was played in between him placing well or winning a HS tournament

Aside the fact that the game started with a BO loss for hydra, do you have any suggestion? Roach hydra is still the best midgame composition against mass stalkers.

But who's actually winning?

lilbow would, assuming he was good at this game. no probe production while consistently floating 100-150 minerals with his pressure, making a random 5th gate that was way too late to be relevant, and late teching made this game much closer than it should be. and it still isnt particularily close

You usually die if you try to get anything else, and i guess people still keep opening that Blizzard unit description list and find themselves thinking that making lots of the unit that hardcounters the entire protoss army should work

Especially right now without any Swarmhost late game, a lot of times you get forced into roach hydra to survive mid game and then have to all-in from there cause you're not in a position to transition into a viable late game from there.

Good job Lilbow.

Other than the games, is anybody else impressed by the production? I feel like they stepped it
even up. I enjoyed the little video clips at the beginning a lot and the new animations look great imo.

Just for the sake of seeing Kela's TvZ being tried against a zerg not slumping, I hope Lilbow beat Hydra (actually I hope it anyway )
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

u should just all be like Life, open 3 hatch before pool every game and win GSL, then drop out vs proxy 2gate

So what do you make? Infestors? It's not very good because the blink stalker timing hits when you have 1 fungal per infestor which makes them basically useless.
