Well played Stephano. I'd buy that argument, if Terran had Tier 3 that was any use against....well anything. Go watch some of Gumiho's games or any games where the Terran makes anything out of his Starports other than Vikings and Meds. Bomber lost because he went pure marine tank versus a hive composition instead of throwing in Ravens, BCs, Thors, etc. WTF how do build that army on Ohana lol, that game lasted what 20 minutes? Bomber couldn't even take a 4th base I'll tell you how. You don't go for the maxed-out marine-tank push on 3 bases. You don't fall behind on tech and econ due to a fake roach bust. You don't make the mistakes Bomber made while Stephano rushed up to hive tech.
So many excuses from these Zergs :/ We get it...Bomber made mistakes. Infestors are still ruining SC2.

Let's be fair and realize that any tech unit is a hard counter to marines (and most first tier units for that matter).
Let's be fair and realize nothing else Terran has is worth building to counter Brood Lords...
You can't go 3 base Raven, BC... My god...

rofl, you could straight up see the fucking effects of the delay in the last minutes of the game in regards to upgrades
you people are unbelievable

It's not an economic hit. It's the timing on the upgrades, isn't it? Fear of the all in -. dump the money in the bunkers earlier, means no double ebay. Thus bomber was behind in upgrades all game, and when 2-2 finished for his 2-2 200/200 marine tank push Broodlords are out and then all the tanks are invalidated, and the marines get run down by ling baneling as the tanks unsiege. The pre-broodlord timing hit post-broodlord and rolled over.

Congrats to Stephano for continuing to win tournaments, one of the few players from EU / NA that still do.

I don't know which tournament you're watching, but the GSL has always featured Terran champions who knew how to deal wtih the Zerg T3 army. For MMA, it was avoiding direct engagements and exploiting the immobility of brood/infestor with his drops and mini-tactics that eventually wore down the Zerg. For Mvp, it was a heavy mech transition even out of biomech (thors and ravens and whatnot). I don't know what comment you're reading, but what I said has nothing to do with what you answered. You're not going to have the same kind of game on Ohana as you will on Metropolis, Atlantis Spaceship or Whirlwind.
So you're saying that Ohana is for some reason impossible to play a late game comp on? Did you even watch the game? Bomber went for a NEAR-ALL-IN PUSH and it FAILED. If he had taken an early 4th CC, made a few PFs in the middle, and worked his way up to controlling his watchtower and his side of the map, he could have easily teched into starport units. But no, he went for the lazy Terran answer, the pre-hive low-tech push.

Its called EMP. You can't whine about Infestors and not make their counter. 1 EMP can neutralize infinite infestors if they're clumped up.

Yeah we should totally rename bomber 'lazy terran'. He's basically bitbybit in disguise.

Trying to siege his tanks, attack from two angles, stim, splitting his vikings BEAUTIFULLY, and macroing like a god all at once isn't enough for the Fungal menace :/ Sorry Bomber's marines...Terran can't do everything at once. But infestors can.

Nice assumption. Anyone who goes against your balance whine circlejerk is automatically a Zerg payer. Mhm. FYI, I play Protoss, so I don't inherently favor either side of the ZvT matchup :/

Not as bad as an early roach warren and 4 roaches. The main thing it did was scare bomber into being passive so that stephano could get away with playing greedy.
