Neeb took two steps forward, he took two steps back. His army and Dark's lurkers came together, because opposites attract.

you get storm after chargelot/archon/immortal, but it's usually on 8 gases


Why aren't Disruptors used in the matchup? They seem pretty awesome in PvP.

If you know it's lurkers (usually it's not) and have the time (very often if it's lurkers, you don't) you get disruptors. But they aren't "standard".

100% this. You should throw down a safety robo bay anyway as soon as you see the opponent commit to hyrda. Then it's just about scouting for den transition to confirm.

The #2 TL Power Rank is down :o.

Let's see how #2 Community PR does after losing to your #13



Well the difference was that everyone had Solar at top 5, and his knockout was an actual upset.

On the other hand some people who actually looks at all past results only had Neeb at #10 (while predicting he went out of groups and lost at ro8).

But keep basing your entire rankings on one single offline tournament where a player gets the easiest schedule possible. It will make for a more active discussion this forum than reasonable rankings.

'Cause ling/bane is standard ZvP now?

Rekt? The result says 3-0 but 2 of these three games were total coinflips/cheeses. Everyone can lose to cheese. Maru, Dark, Innovation, sOs (ok not sOs), even God lost to cheese several times. A problem of SC2 is that there is simply too much cheese, you can simply prevent the macro game if you want.
Without cheese this would have been a different series, and even Dark knows it. If he was confident, he would have played a macro game

They are frequently. Neeb just didn't do eet.

In the Elazer - Showtime games Elazer was opting for ling bane which disruptors good against but necessitates Protoss skipping on archons which makes them extremely vulnerable to just being multi pronged to death.

I'd argue disruptors are awful vs ling/bane because lings just run circles around them or force you to friendly fire

Yes that's what makes it so chancy. I think more players would rather trust in their own skill (archon) than their opponent fucking up (disruptor) when faced with ling bane ravager.

No he didn't.

Stephano had a pretty nice run when he was on form. Couldn't translate it to anything in Korea that was substantial, but his style was adapted, stolen and studied by most.


So, in other words, "no he didn't"?

I'm quite certain that every zerg ever doing the roach max, broodlord bullshit etc qualifies as overly studied, and studying him therefore gave you help against people generally in the matchup, no?

He was no joke comparatively.


Neeb isn't a joke either. You are defending the statement that Stephano kept winning after the Koreans studied him, as opposed to Neeb. This is simply not true. There is no definition of winning that you can apply to Stephano after he started being studied by Koreans that you can't apply to Neeb now.

Yes. Stephano innovated and I think more people at a higher level comparatively were playing versus him than what Neeb is meeting.

But hey, quantifying this actually takes too much effort. I would rather save my wrists.


Well, you're wrong? I don't know what else to tell you. The data that you linked demonstrates it pretty clearly.

What? Disruptors are awful against ling/bane...

Hey man, disruptors are not good against ling bane. Anyone with confident control won't lose much to sloworbs.

Have you seen the fucking games? He got rightfully rekt for being insanely greedy when faced with cheese. His reaction was terrible.

Yeah of course, tomorrow is a win-win for me .
If Elazer win I win the sigbet, if he loses all foreigners will be eliminated and we won't have to hear about foreigners catching up until at least next year (hopefully ever again?).
No foreigner will ever be able to reach the skill level of the various best koreans terrans there has been in the history of Starcraft 2.

I still can't stop laughing from that 3-0. Now we'll get to see the real show of tonight :D.


It's also win-win for me, either I win the sigbet, or I will get a Pole in finals.

Everybody is a winner, isn't that just great?!

Yes, that's why you bet money for the opposing team in football. :D
