Not Showtime, he is ranked 2nd. Neeb is 22nd. I don't think it is Drogo either because the record is 66-16 and Drogo would have a lot more games than that. All the European pros have 300+ games on that ladder. I'm guessing a Korean Protoss is playing part time on the European ladder. Zest playing today against Impact for SSL. Surely he can beat Impact? | ||

U guys need to stop this circlejerk that zest is shit, he still has the best PvP in the world (find 1 person with a positive winratio vs Zest in PvP i dare you.) The other matchups are basically impossible, even more so for Zest than other players because his playstyle is numbers oriented not gimmicks oriented, thats why he has terrible form vs Zerg and Terran, but so does every toss, he just does a bit more | ||

0-2 loss to Impact. Horrible play. While he sends 2 Oracles to harass Impact's bases he is attacked with a Zergling rush and almost wiped out. Never recovered enough to have a chance. Had to use too much money just trying to catch up in workers. Game 2 more of a macro game Zest just out executed by Impact who hit him with a lot of Roaches and Ravagers. Zest screws up by losing his mothership core early in the fight. At this point he is playing like a tier one masters league player. Why he is so good on ladder and so horrible on lands is beyond me. SoS was not much better losing 1-2 to Bunny with a nonsensical game one build where he had over 50 Zealots and 9 oracles. | ||

Quick recognition of the Zergling rush and sending his oracles back to base asap could have saved 10 probes. That has nothing to do with game balance. Zealot charge upgrade is now cheaper, 100/100 instead of 200/200. That's a way to even things up though SoS over did it. Zest did not have a mothership core a cardinal sin against Zerg whose early attack units(Zerglings-Baelings-roaches) do not shoot up and for overcharge. Between GSL and SSl that is 3 straight losses for Zest in which he lost maps 1-6. | ||

It was the new patch release + KT loss that ruined him | ||

Zest's level was already decreasing at the end of the proleague and the lasts season of GSL last year. I think it's more about the meta. I think he is not really adapting and if you add this lack of adaptation to the fact that the balance doesn't seem to be really okay at the moment for protoss... | ||
