this is just sad game play

Yeah, and using bunch of free units that doesn't cost even the energy isn't??? C'mon. Both sides are using rather disgusting ubnits, not just terran.

The reason he is using free units is because he can't do jack shit with anything else against Marines, Ghosts and Ravens unless he wants to trade super inefficiently.

I know, but as long as Zergs have these units(BL included) Blizzard won't come up with new ones. Well, honestly, i don't think Blizzard will come with any such drastic changes. But hey, at least I can hope

I've lost that kind of hope long time ago though.

I never said it is just terran, you just assume that as does boggyb

your biases are showing I guess

Considering Zerg has played like this for years (assuming they deserve an auto win if they get hive), it is reasonable to assume you're complaining about Terran.

No it isn't because I know I wasn't. I was commenting on the lame waiting game we had to endure. I am not racial biased I just have a zerg icon. You clearly are biased and as such hard to take seriously.
I Protoss winner, could it be?

Raven good unit

Anti armor missile giving -3 armor makes marines like godly. Impossible to engage with anything while AA is up.

Still was a fun game. Elazer did well enough and Byun really had a tough time, seeing how happy he looked when he finally made it through the last defense.

I really liked Elazer's Infestor and Viper use, I've seen alot worse these last couple of weeks.

But why in the world does he keep sacrificing all his stuff into the same fortified position? Build a stupid nydus network, get a bunch of droppalords and harass the main/the expansion points while defending in the middle with your spores(+spines). That way the swarmhosts would've atleast done something

I assume he was trying to establish that position in an attempt to deny ByuN his final base. Had he succeeded, he might have won the game.

Man, feel bad for elazer, he should have advanced. Perhaps nerves got to him, ah well happy a Terran advances though

Don't feel bad for a non-Korean losing in the GSL. Elazer can and will attend WCS Circuit events. Koreans who lose or don't qualify have to sit around contemplating how much longer they can afford to play the game.

Elazer just seemed to stressed in the last game. Never tried to nydus or mass lings to harass. Kept sending the locusts into the same positions that were fortified every time. ByuN isn't Maru level lategame right now, he was making a lot of mistakes.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

this seems to be a common problem for foreigner zergs. not trying to shit on foreigners but they seem clueless in lategame ZvT since there isnt really any top terran that plays EU ladder besides uthermal. when serral streamed, he even said that he has 0 practice against ghost raven (referencing maru vs serral wesg) since games are decided much earlier due to skill difference

Even uthermal stays in korea nowadays I think. The only terran threat on EU is heromarine.

Considering the best zergs in korea can struggle against the elite terrans (soO, byul, rogue etc) and they've been practicing with them since the start, I can't imagine the foreigners catching up any time soon.

True, but Elazer put on a good show even though ByuN isn't in his best form just yet. Will be interesting to see how this translates to his play vs foreign terrans in the WCS circuit.

I have my doubts that foreign Terrans are going to be experts on this late game, as its even difficult for Terrans like Byun to control properly.

That said, Byun hasnt been known for his late game TvZ. I'd expect Elazer to show much less capability vs some of the other late game Terrans like Maru, TY or even Gumiho.
