Why in the world is ByuN not making Thors

Short answer is Byun gonna Byun

Long answer is that he spent his bank expecting a longer time spent in the bio/tank vs lurker/hydra/bane phase and was caught off guard by the brood/infestor switch and by the time it would be a good idea to make thors he didn't really have the money for it. But he also seemed to prefer just mass ghost to thors or vikings as a counter unit. So idk


Well he kept up double tank production long after the BLs appeared so I don't see why he couldn't have squezed out a group of Thors. He had the upgrades too.

Yeahhhh it really seemed like he thought Serral was bluffing. Like sure you have four brood lords but you're about to hit me with a billion lurkers. And then later sure you have thirteen brood lords but... I'm gonna keep building tanks. Can't fool me.

I just thought it was funny that he built every single thing in the universe before he built a second starport or a third factory. I know his gas bank wasn't huge but still

Battlecruiser builds probably won't do anything against Serral.

we were just a tiny bit of scouting away from Serral fans saying "that was a stupid build choice by Serral" and wondering why he doesn't macro every game

It's cool to see that Reynor seemed a bit ahead of the zvt meta 6 months ago and now Serral seems just way more complete, it's quite back and forth.

If I were Byun I'd be tilted off the face of the earth right now. Just tough. And he has yet to get any damage at all with this battle cruisers the queens are just everywhere

Unfortunate that ByuN lost his marines like that; had they been at home, he would probably have ended up ahead or at least even

But such is fog of war; you win some, you lose some

It's weird, there was a period last year where I thought Reynor was way better at TvZ. The pendulum's definitely swung back though.

After a shaky first few minutes in game 1 Serral has turned this into a bit of a crushing series so far.

Serral's looking terrifying outside of ZvZ.

Really hope Byun shows us something here. I would definitely like to see Serral progress as well but I wanna see a good series between these two!

between these two it has a chance to become 2-3 equally to 3-0 imo. Anything is on the table

And I could go back and watch Embiid tearing up the Heat a few nights ago as many times as I want. Doesn't mean I don't wanna see it again the next time they play!

This game seems basically over. What a disappointing series. Hopefully TY can impress tomorrow.

Pretty much lol. Byun bunkered up at home from the ravagers but didn't have enough to push out. Likewise the ravagers couldn't get up the ramp. So everyone waved and decided to call it off

Zergs these days just seem so good at defending harassment. Feels like Byun hasn't killed a drone all series
