Well, as it turns out you more or less need to all-in if you want to be aggressive early on as Zerg, it depends a bit on the map. It's not cheese, don't blame him for trying and no, this is not balance whine. There's a BIG difference between all-ining and being aggressive. | ||

Grats Hasu, been rooting for him since the infamous beta game between him and TLO Nah, once it's scouted it's pretty much over. He can't drop effectively, and if he doesn't then he's way too far behind. Overlord speed + drop + hydras + grooved spines off of 2-base is all-in. It worked the first time because hasu opened Stargate. | ||

You and everyone else needs to recognize that a scouted drop is bound to fail in almost every situation.. | ||

How were Morrow's wins against Jinro "shitty"? Yes, he went all in -- *everyone* goes all in at some point, and Morrow saw an opportunity and seized it. This wasn't shitty, it was great fun to watch. | ||

All im saying is that he spoils the results of that series so just dont watch that particular match. just throwing out the warning cuz it annoyed me EDIT: my bad it was infact the cruncher series he spoils it in. just remembered Was posted before, TSL admin said game was even played out until then. Far more likely that that commentator just got his facts wrong. | ||

I mean its hard to find a game fun when one player just gives up, even if he is behind/going to loose. Zerg just isn't a comeback race. You might as well save yourself a lot of frustration. In my opinion though, when it's the deciding match of a series in the best tournament evah, I wouldve played it out just hoping I'd get lucky. | ||

These things are exciting to watch. Zerg losses against protoss, in contrast, involve a-moved deathballs, 4gate, or 6gate. These things are typically not exciting. Then why was game 5 not recommended? Actually are these polls even going into the OP? | ||

I expected him to get rolled 3:0 in macro games, but he at least was trying something to avoid getting deathballed. So i guess he prepared well. Agreed. Another thing to consider is he was playing a teammate. I bet he knew Hasu had his style down pat so he might have been outside his comfort zone to throw him off. Some times it worked, other times it didn't. It certainly wasn't masterful execution, but he really put out an effort to be different and surprising after getting rolled in game 1 with his "traditional" style. | ||

protoss is bound to play defensive unless they allin, timingpush or do airharassment - there is simply no window to create "wow what impressive play" moments. thats why it looks so easy to play protoss, but it defenetly is not... morrow wouldve crushed most Ps out there with the games he showed us today. | ||
