He didnt have a lot but he did have vipers. And they were critical in crushing bunny 2nd push.

Indeed. I really hope Clem will advance over him, but it will be close.

I’ve nothing against him, nor am I a fan either. Only saw a little bit but I thought he did OK. The trio of Artosis/Special and him worked surprisingly well, Winter as the more casual guy, Artosis as the enthusiastic all things StarCraft nerd and Special as the incredibly biased but enthusiastic Terran playing nerd.

I rarely have chat open for reasons of my own sanity, but there were plenty of Winter fans there, some of whom didn’t know who Artosis was.


I’d always assumed that Winter’s audience were aware of the wider scene but just liked his style or w/e, but it seems some at least are a totally different segment of the SC community, so it’s probably good for them to get exposed to something like an HSC

Idk if it was BM, they are almost as good at clearing tanklines as they always were, and they forced Bunny to make thors and vikings, which later ran over with banelings, roaches and ravagers. Tech swiches is still a major strenght of Zerg.

yeah tbh idk how it's possible to follow sc2 and not know who Artosis is. like, no hate to anyone, i just literally don't understand how that works. meanwhile i don't really know who Winter is so fair enough i suppose.

Not looking good for Lambo today. At least he still has to play a Korean in ZvZ so that should be an autowin for the European zerg

That player still gives me nightmares.

I’d assumed SC2 had people who followed the scene in some form, and people who just played and didn’t consume external content.

Anyway first post patch PvZ I’ve seen thus far. Intrigued more than anything, feels like Lambo is playing as if the patch didn’t happen so hard to judge much.

I think a more aggressive hydra into lurker style might be pretty potent because you can transition more easily and you don’t have that ‘sit back and let Stats build upgraded Carriers’, interested to see it experimented with anyway.

Lambo seems to have some sort of mental block vs korean players. His unit control and decision making become so much worse than his normal play

We probably also have to consider the quite significant skill gap between two players like Lambo and Stats.

I also think Lurker style is probably the way to go against toss. 10 range makes quite a difference, and it's good you get them earlier.

And the fact zerg doesn't have any counter to mass carriers anymore.

Yeah let's ignore 2018 PvZ where good Zergs still won lategame pvz without heavy infested terran usage.

Void rays are stronger now though and shred through Corruptors very quickly. But I agree Lambo isn't at his best this tournament and I'd rather judge after seeing Reynor/Serral late game vs Stats/Trap,

I must say, when I started following Sc2 at first, I also had no idear about Artosis.
I played sc2 and bw when I was 10, but only the campaign. Then I played sc2 casually and bought sc2 in 2014, but also mostly played campaign there.
Then in 2017 I started watching Lowkos Videos on YouTube. The 1st time I watched an tournament was HSC17. Gues closely after that I learnd Who Artosis is. So most of my time as part of the SC comunity I had also no clue about him at all.
