Zergs don't really dominate outside of Korea right now


At least they are not underperforming.

Still thinks that foreign Zs are just way better then foreign Ts and Ps,
so the situation outside Korea is not that bad.

Before queen buff I'd agree that tvz is t favored but the few games we've seen post-patch looked different.
The 3 base pre-hive timing doesn't look unstoppable anymore and the zergs mainly lost because of stupid mistakes.

that's why I hope we give this patch some time. Sadly a lot of Z already got TvZed before the patch and maybe the ones remaining lacked time to understand the subtleties and things you can abuse with this queen range meta.

Zergs don't really dominate outside of Korea right now

DH Valencia is Z vs ShoWTime and Neeb


I realize that, but we don't think that zerg sucks in Korea because Taeja and Maru won today, we think that because there is a consistent trend over a lot of the late korean results. We don't have that for foreign zergs. They're doing well in Valencia, which tells me that they aren't underperforming, but there is no trend that would lead me to accept that they "dominate" outside of Korea. They're doing okay, probably slightly better than they should vs terran, but there's no domination.

yeah but as I said the patch is recent and I think it should really help Z in both mus ; problem is a lot of Zs had been eliminated before or couldn't get enough practice to succeed vs very strong opponents. Even more problematic is the fact we will basically get zero competition until Blizzcon with high level Z vs high level Koreans, so it will be incredibly hard to assess if further action is needed before Blizzcon.

At Blizzcon there will be Dark representing Z and who else??

for KR probably no one, there will be a lot of foreign Z though. But yeah only Dark. Though he can very well go on to win the whole thing, a bit like Life when he won his Blizzcon in a rather bad Z meta.

EDIT : in fact Solar has a decent shot at Blizzcon

What interest me in those game is that some of them went to late game, and they did -in these games- find there. Of course there is no way to say only from today that it is completely viable or not, especially since Zerg didn't try (or succeded) to add broodLord tech, but they did not looked ridiculous weak as we read sometimes here. The "kill before Hive unless you die" attitude is not necessarily true.

Pretty sure before the patch you were also saying TvZ was fine, and now suddenly it was not, funny.

Anyway will be fun to see only Dark in the next round of GSL and SSL.

Damn didn't expect zerg to be that bad that even Taeja can advance

So we will have Dark and maybe Rogue in the ro16, cool
