Well Armani said it himself, ''I'm never beating Maru, but there's a chance i could beat Trap''.


And Aligulac agrees. Armani has never beaten Maru, but is actually pretty close to 50/50 against Trap.

What would you say he needed to do differently? Have a probe at his wall? I feel like with the series on the line you can't afford to put yourself behind to be safe. Especially when Armani beat Zest in straight up games one and two.

Scout more. For whatever reason, there's no Probe scouting in PvZ after the initial drone. At least with Terran we keep the Reaper active to try and get more info.

While I agree that Armani's chances are better against Trap than against Maru, Trap would still be a heavy favorite. Armani didn't play poorly against Zest, but it was more Zest's loss than Armani's win.

Zest this is what you get for fucking around with some unproven shit for 2 games in a row. You gave yourself no wiggle room vs shit like this.

There was nothing unproven about what Zest did in g1/2. He had two or three game winning recalls set up that be bungled in g1, in g2 he forgot storm and Armani scouted him chrono'ing the Archives two minutes late so just went all-in on lingbane hydra.

I don't think Skytoss is very good in PvZ, regardless of whether the build is executed well or not. Zerg is literally given the ability to drone for free and completely bypass the early and mid game. Late game is Zerg favoured and we all saw what happened in late game ZvP during King of Battles. Creep spread being a form of map hack doesn't help too because the Skytoss army is slow and mass Spores basically shuts it down.

Sure, but in these games anyway, Zest had some great chances and blew them with a bunch of weird blunders. That first recall onto a patch of lurkers/spores, and then setting up a double recall at the 5th and blowing it.

As for forgetting storm, that was just dumb.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Yeah that's pretty much a "guy in the chat" take.

Pretty much need to attempt to scout specifically with the ling flood in mind. Keep the probe alive to keep an eye on zergling movement til the adept gets there. If you see a 9th ling or a lack of drones its pants shitting time.

well thats meta for you, if drone drill rush becomes a usual thing, tosses will make the adjustments necessary to collect the free win and then the rush will get out of fashion

I think Maru can win this and he's looked so good lately, but I really want a protoss champion and I think this is our best shot.
