That would be the first option. The second option would have been to properly control his army and stick with the disruptor pressure + oracle revelation and pressure via prisma warpin or runby in the main or 3rd. It was a 100% throw by herO and whoever cannot see his clearly isn't in touch with Starcraft. He should have been happy already going 2 robo disruptors vs lurkers and there were little options to lose besides constantly running into lurkers and getting all core units abducted without actually hitting lurkers.... so no, it was not "clawed his way back" . And to be frank: this series was FAR BELOW Reynors real skill level. :X | ||

Lurkers can now shoot air. Also ultralisk can go full shark mode and charge while burrowed and then leap through the air like a majestic creatures they are. Does shittone of damage to anything in the air or in the landing zone. No, no friendly fire to other zerg units. x] | ||

Gamelosing carrier switch ;o Reynor wasn't playing perfect either, the opposite of perfect really, mistakes and outplays make series more exciting... I really think he couldn't starve Reynor out though as someone else said Hero should have, he had to transition, Reynor just choose to push like a very smart player would do. But yeah seriously carriers suck so much. | ||

herO just donated the warp prism, if he just kept the warp prism where it was the game was over, even if he moved the WP to the middle of the map the game was over... then he basically couldnt control his army and kept donating so many units to lurkers.. jesus what a throw | ||

Looking at the games over the past year, I just have to say that so many Korean players like soO, herO, INnoVation, Maru to an extent, Zest are mechanically skilled but so boneheaded and incapable of decision making. Watching them makes me so frustrated. Europeans (or non Koreans in general) approach the game in a much more flexible and cerebral way with better decision making. | ||

Your analysis here shows you don't understand the place ones head is in, in those situations. Sure: Reynor clawing his way back relies on herO making mistakes, but he often gets caught up in his attacks. You assume herO has perfect information and is level headed, but in that situation no ones head is. | ||

I wonder whether TIME or Stats may advance if they are in this group. Judging by yesterday's games I would say maybe TIME but probably not Stats. | ||

They all started so, so young, and look at them now. Best of the best. I felt the same with Stephano, it's weird because you feel a sort of connection/ emotional link with the player which ofc is artificial. Very fun game anyway. | ||

And maybe, elazer will be the only player who lose to non-zerg player (and maybe he can also beat trap) For some comments saying that always that Zerg just simply player better and their opponents made some many mistakes, I am just wondering does it mean choosing Zerg just make me become a better player? Zergs never make mistakes? | ||
