Rebuilding it over and over was a pretty poor decision though.


I don't think so. It was either keep remaking the 3rd and cancelling, or swarm hosts would be killing the main


Swarmhosts can't reach the main. Remaking the 3rd is throwing minerals away.

Can someone explain me why he didn't snipe the nydus and just camp with oracles on top of SH? I saw there a few queens but he should be able to kill them.

It was close enough. I will be looping this match over and over in my sleep. It will provide me with the best beauty sleep possible.


It is people like you who make me not want to see Elazer or Seral do well, because all we get is EU >> NA everywhere.

Honestly, I still want to see Seral do well; the guy is a humble player.

Dark vs Neeb last year was already worse than Life vs Lilbow, this wasn't even bo5.


Life basically sent Lilbow into retirement with that series lol. Or more accurately, Lilbow put himself into retirement before that series even began

Lilbow played more professional LotV games than Life

2 base nydus swarm host

That's new

Rogue did that before I think. Some GSL series. Or it was Dark in SSL, not sure.

He did do a similar build a loooooooong time ago vs herO I think but I think it was on 3 base and hit a bit later

On the other hand, soO did this exact build vs Stats in super tournament ;D

That's the one. G4.

Lol yes they could. They had enough time to kill the nexus and fight Neeb's units after. If the 3rd wasn't there they would fly over and start killing the main

Nah, people seem to be forgetting how bad Life vs lilbow was. He literally died to early pools every game, even when he had a good build against it.

Yeah right. You just bait the locusts down into the pocket with a single unit, and then they can't crawl all the way to the main.

Makro?


What else would you do though. If you stay on 2 base, your economy is even worse and you're just taking damage against free units. With the nydus, it's not like you can't catch them out of position with an allin, especially after a SG opener. I think maybe he could've made a ton of gates and harrassed with adepts whilst building up to archon drop but honestly this is a super hard build to face.

I really like that Rogue stayed so heavily on 2 base rather than spread himself thin across 3. That was a major hole I saw when soO did a similar thing against Stats recently in the ST. It ended up being okay for soO cos Stats had to waste all his oracle energy killing locusts, but had he gone across the map, it would've been a drone BBQ. Rogue's build looked a lot better in this regard, I was never worried that he would take signficant damage at any point.
Ganzi beat me without stim. Ostojiy beat me with a nydus. Siphonn beat me with probes. Revival beat my sentry-immortal all-in.

Rogue vs Neeb was a beatdown, but Life vs Lilbow was a dumpster fire. Life literally slaughtered Lilbow with ladder strats, the most obvious cheese possible. At least Rogue had to use somewhat sophisticated builds.
