Circumstance, is Chobro okay in your opinion?

?

He's an excellent host, always has been. I didn't see him enough back when he was a caster to judge him on his abilities there.

:D thanks

INnoVation and Zest are probably near the top in terms of common, alongside sOs and herO. There's a wide range of players that could reasonably win if they play as good as they have in the past.


What Zerg player is good to watch? I saw that Life has a lot of achievements. I am a gold Zerg, so I am hoping to learn


If you're hoping to learn, I would recommend ByuL - his style is easier to emulate, and he tends to handle Terran mech slightly better than Life. Life is my favorite player, though, and he plays a very exciting style - if you're looking for intelligent problem solving and fancy unit control, Life is the player to follow.

Is "intelligent problem solving" a synonym for "cheesing the fuck out of better macro players"?


Well, Mvp was a regular cheeser, and he is considered by some the GOAT of sc2. Go figure...

Life is great and all, I love him, he's by far my favorite in SC2, but he's absolutely the last player you want to learn the game from, not even other progamers can emulate his playstyle.
Most of his "solutions" involve the hardest possible reads and playing out strats that work because Life is fucking crazy and his gamesense is on an absolutely different level. Major example being Life holding off BFH with lings, you shouldn't ever fucking do it, Life does it because his control is outta this world. Or going blin 3hatch no pool every ZvP, that's also awful to learn from.

what's BFH ?

something that wouldn't ever be a problem if everyone just went roaches

But do learn the proxy hatch baneling bust on Merry Go Round.

i feel like life did that because someone bet him $100 he couldn't invent a new zerg cheese

Really, out of all the things to criticise about Fantasy's play, Rotti picks... the bunker timing?

Of all matches to use as evidence for your viewpoint, you use Fantasy vs herO? Do you have any idea how silly that makes you look?
