FYI Untill recently Stephano-hype was nothing compared to Nerchio-hype, and neither was based on air. When Nerchio has his LAN-breakout you'll see. | ||

PvPs yesterday were painful to watch, this brings the matchup's reputation back somewhat. sases build is weak to a couple things but he just knows hasu's style. Sases build isn't very good vs 3gate pressure or a really good 4gate blink timing. But its good vs robo openings for sure which is basically all hasu does. So don't read too much into it, its a good build but it can't work every game. | ||

He cant open like that unless the opponent removes the threat of 4gate through a combination of double gas, extra probes, not enough saved chrono, delayed gateways, etc etc. Doesnt have to be all of them, but there is no way you can play as SaSe did without very precice scouting info, which makes it so powerful | ||

Obviously if a player fails to get results after a while, then it seems like they're doing something wrong, but ideally my thoughts on those players will be proven right in the future. You say you don't have enough information on Stephano, Nerchio, Ret but that's because you haven't been trying to get it. It's all out there. I think IdrA's mindset has clearly improved, and that's great because that was really holding him back. His map vision and multitask haven't faltered so much from his BW days, and his macro and unit composition decisions seem to also have improved, which is good because those were two other big issues he had. What keeps IdrA from being at the very top, in my opinion, is that he doesn't scout enough, relies on incomplete reads of his opponents, and I still question some of his decision making. He's obviously extremely good though. Sen is fantastic, I just haven't seen enough of him lately, and he's lost a bit in the TeSL, which is weird. But he could very well get right back to the top, it's hard to tell. I dont know if you missed the post i put about 4 posts above yours (i know these threads are crazy to hold conversation. But i stated pretty much the same thing. No zerg has multiple recent results to show they are above the others. Sen has gone of the market with the TeSF for now, and Idra/Stephano/Ret all seemed to make a recent splash. Nothign past that though. I hope they all start doing well. Yes we could look at the player skill and use our knowledge to make good results. But then Idra/Ret are almost always going to be on that list, because if they are in top form and playing at a level of their old bw skill, they will dominate. But we have to take consistency into play. | ||

That wasnt about luck, he opened double gas with no chrono saved three games in a row and got "countered" all 3 games, SaSe lost the first game due to trying a double expand and then getting out of position with part of his army but overall he was always going to win with that style vs 2 gas chronod probes from 1 base | ||
