Hyun now realising it's probably a good idea in LOTV to take bases far away from your opponent due to it taking them a while to get there.

Random question, why do zergs not do that and put up a defensive nydus?

Units don't auto pop out , you don't have super value units (defiler and 2 lurkers can stall a push in bw so :D) to pop out until ultras, much easier to snipe than in bw. due to terran army being able to fly.


I'll give you the lack of swarm, but anything is better than sitting there with all your bases in one place and have them all killed at the same time surely?

Uh this is troublesome. I expected both Zerg players to win today based on skill level.

I learned so many timings and position a terran player can do. Koreans really know how to exploit the weaknesses of opponents race and meta game.

As a Zerg I fear to play ladder against terran now more. Some tank position they showed are really tough to beat. A little reminder of old Lost Temple in Wings of Liberty

I think best way to play against terran now is pushing with roach ravager timings, because they have bad defense currently. Terran players don't get attacked often so they did not gather enough experience to deal with it. Game 4 was very good example of what I mean.

(This is no balance whine my friends. Only looking at game what happened. Zerg now need to adept to nasty terran timings and prepare for future GSL with better skill and experience play )


PS: In game 5 ByuN vs Dream you see what happens when you DON'T go mutas hahaha. Drops drops drops drops drops. In europe roach ravager infestor might work, but not in korea

In my personal opinion I did expect HyuN to win yes. I watched some incredible matches of him lately that showed great control in both micro and macro. Today he was not so good especially in game 5

Pretty sure she already has someone. I think I saw either a promise ring or an engagement ring on her twitter.

Well Dream had some of the best TvZ in Hots, i think most people expected that to carry over somewhat ^^

I'm still watching the VODs but those Byul vs Alive games were abysmal. These high level Korean games have been worse than some foreigner LotV so far.

I don't understand anything at all either, but it's quite normal I think, the game has changed a lot and people need time to adapt.

When he gave a shit. His TvZ winrate was still terrible. Below 50% in 2015.

HyuN looked very bad micro wise vs PtitDrogo in Homestory cup tho, isn't he a one trick poney roach / allins abuser?

Like it's hard to gauge skill level...

Finished the VODs. Was hoping for better games. It feels like the game is still extremely unknown to the Koreans as well.
