Did PiG just define Zest as a macro protoss? :D


That's not nearly as absurd as you make it sound. He's more of a macro player than a cheeser.


There are other options. I mean Zest relies much more on unit control than macro, and he rarely goes for the big macro-lategame. Sometimes he even stops macroing altogether...

"sometimes"
I Protoss winner, could it be?

He floats money midgame, but that doesn't make him not a macro player. I disagree he relies more on control, it's his game management that wins games.

Hard to be a cheeser if you only know 3 builds.


That's about all the PvZ builds, so why learn any more?

That's the difference between Zest and Bisu though... One revolutionized PvZ and the other looks good

It's hard to look good AND revolutionize PvZ. You'd have to be HerO.

Bisu is hotter than Zest.

Different types of attractive to be honest. Bisu's more fly, while Zest has that animalistic thing going on.

Losing to a Polish Zerg is inevitable, they're always coming to ruin your day.

What we learned this IEM is that GSL is fucking worthless compared to a WCS.

HerO honestly impacted the metagame a lot more than Zest ever did. I'd argue more than anyone else.
