couldn't the move out with 5 marines situation qxc is talking about be used to force the zerg to make units they dont want to since they see it and have enough time to react?

They don't want to do it at first but if you kill those 5 marines there goes your pressure for 5+ minutes allowing the zerg to do whatever the fuck.
I am not talking about using the 5 marines. I am talking about feigning pressure.

They have queens bro, they'll make like 6 lings max because queens are just so good. 5 marines isn't very much pressure.
You obviously have no idea what I am saying and didn't understand what qxc said on that show so I am just not going to respond to you.

Wtf are you trying to say? The zerg won't make 30 fucking lings to beat 5 marines. I responded to your point, you're just not smart enough to realize it.
No you are saying those marines will die. I am saying just feign pressure. Move out, not very far, force the units and just move back. You said "herp derp they die" QXC said "as soon as I move out you make more than enough units to stop the pressure before I am there" so I said can you use that knowledge to force the same thing but NOT sacrifice the marines. So no, you didn't respond to my point. You just said "NOPE WONT WORK"

Moving on.

I know they're not dying, jesus. I just said that BECAUSE 5 marines isn't much pressure vs. 4-6 queen builds, zergs won't make many lings/crawlers. Beyond the first reply, I never said anything about the marines dying. Stop being so fucking thick and arrogant.
it isn't? Even though idra said it was ... odd ...

You really think 5 marines can beat 2+ queens and a spine crawler/6 lings?
Why would they have a spine and 6 lings? Forget it you weren't listening to STOG.

Very nice SotG discussion. IdrA was definitely right on the metagame of zerg allinning terran greed. I wonder if there is a solid inbetween on the greed that is able to hold those all-ins while still keeping the terran equal. I think a problem with the game sometimes is that people are often too eager to get an advantage through extreme greed, instead of playing on equal terms then winning through being the superior player as the game goes on. This often leads to the very coinflippy nature of some matchups.



I don't see something in between. You don't play greedy the uphill battle you fight in macro is too big and you can't really deal damage anymore without basically all-inning and crossing fingers if he plays greedy.. ( and playing greedy reactively usually doesn't work because its too late )


IdrA's argument disagrees, he seems to think that it is possible to macro on an equal level if there are some metagame changes i.e. turtling instead of pushing onto creep. DeMuslim v. Ret seemed a fairly solid example of this but that's not the super super high level. Really impossible for anyone to say right now IMO, the metagame hasn't really settled down yet and that's what I'm interested to see. Is it really that much of an insurmountable uphill battle, or is it often that the zerg is just the overall better macroer/has a current better understanding of the matchup at the moment?


I don't know turteling is very map dependent. If you can't really expand to more than 3 bases that well because of creep / expansion location then turteling is a bad idea. Alot of the current Maps where the expansions are so freaking far away would need to be eliminated to really establish something like this.

You obviously have no idea who avilo is. If you did you would understand why they dislike him and a lot of the community dislikes him in general.
When I think of something else, something will go here
