We definitely saw it a couple times in the Ro32


We did?!
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Ok, just once. Inno beat Creator on the very first day of GSL

I just doublechecked, it's never been played again

We saw it exactly once between INno and Creator. It also got played a few times in ONPOONG.

I think INno doesn't veto that map, so if he plays another zerg I think we have a good chance of seeing it.

People said the same in the blink era. People should just turtle on 2 base with 5 bunkers and tanks every game. Fact is that we see protoss players dying to those allins disproportionaly often.


I'm in no position to judge balance in pro games, but I think if the wall is just unable to hold ANY all-in, then there is no basis for doing a balance analysis.

And yeah Zest is going triple oracle intentionally. The second oracle is standard. Not sure why he thinks the third oracle is worth it.

I'm a little worried that Scarlett has done no damage, that usually means protoss wins unless Scarlett gets a good lurker position

It's definitely holdable, the issue lies in scouting. Protoss needs near-flawless scouting to defend Zerg all-ins.

The issue doesn't lie in scouting. It lies in not being so greedy you make next to no units, and expect to live on one shield battery and a single pylon

I don't think Scarlett has good enough control in the late game to win.

Disagree. Scouting is completely key. You either commit hard on the defense to be able to hold, or play as greedy as possible. Going half-an-half just loses to both all-ins and macro.

Not building a second pylon isn't being half assed, its being stupid

Sure (though pylon positions on Neon Violet are rather awkward). He still gets destroyed even with a second pylon there.

Does Zest not have any units that can effectively kill corruptors?
